About this property

Drapes Design Apartments 2A Sombra

Right in the centre of Funchal, right next to the Farmers Market, this fantastic apartment offers you all the convenience.

Set in a building that housed an old Madeira Embroidery Factory, this property is divided into six independent fractions, each named after well-known Madeira Embroidery stitching.

With a modern and functional architecture, these studios have small notes that take you back to the past and make you know a little about the embroidery of the island. With a bedroom with double bed, one bathroom and fully equipped kitchen, the apartment has the capacity to accommodate two people.

For those who like to enjoy a good time of relaxation, you can enjoy the pleasant communal terrace, available on the rooftop of the building, which has a kitchen, so you can cook your meals.

On the same terrace there is a common laundry room to the building.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW
Drapes is situated in a privileged central area, right in the heart of Funchal. Within a few steps from the famous Farmers’ Market (Mercado dos Lavradores) and the historic centre of Funchal (locally known as ‘Zona Velha’), from here you can explore by foot many of the main tourist attractions of our beautiful town. (e.g. The Cable Car, Funchal Marina, CR7 Museum, Cathedral, Madeira Wine Lodge, etc ...)

Just right in front of the building you have an excellent connection to the local and intercity bus network, connecting you to all places in the island, and covering both the east and west regions, so that it will not be necessary to go far in case you want to benefit from these services. In addition to these facilities, the building has a shopping centre with several shops, cafés, restaurants and a medium-sized supermarket.


GETTING AROUND
With a bus stop practically at the doorstep, transport will be no problem for our guests.

Although a aerobus bus stop for airport arrivals and departures is within 2 minutes walk distance from the flat, we recommend the private transfer service as the best option to get to the flat. Contact us in advance to schedule a private transfer car with our local partners. It is cheaper than taking a taxi by your own in the airport!


GUEST ACCESS
Guests have access to all areas of the flat.


INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
We are always at your disposal to help or to answer your questions. You can contact us via our mobile numbers or by email. We will do our best to meet your requests.

Super nice Airbnb in downtown Funchal!

We loved our stay at Drapes Design, the apartment looks very new, is clean and spacious, and the kitchen has everything you could need for your stay. The location is ideal, just by the Mercado dos Lavradores in downtown Funchal, with a supermarket 1 minute away and bus stops just downstairs. The team was super responsive too. The rooftop is the cherry on top with a super nice view over the city :)

Stilistische Meisterleistung Sombra 2A (2.Etage)

Dieses 50qm- Appartment bot alles, was man für einen Aufenthalt als Selbstersorger benötigt. Es war sehr großzügig und stilistisch eine Meisterleistung. Die Küche bot genug Platz und außerordentlich viel Geschirr. Lediglich der Wasserkocher fehlte. So wurde eben Wasser auf dem Herd erwärmt. Ganz klassisch. Ich hätte mir jedoch bei der Größe der Küche ein grossrs Kochfeld (4 Platten) gewünscht. Nespresso-Maschine, easy zu bedienen! Toll ist bei "AIA", dass Dinge wie Salz, Pfeffer, Öl, Kaffee, Tee (ggf. Filtertüten) gestellt werden. Das Bett war groß und sehr bequem. Das Bad praktisch und funktional. Die liebevollen Details hinter Glas (Bügeleisen, Nähmaschine &Co.) versprühten viel Charme und Gemütlichkeit. Man muss sich aufgrund der direkten, zentralen Lage auf einen hohen Geräuschpegel einstellen. Schlafen mit Ohropax war aber ok. Alles super!

Perfect airbnb

We couldn't have asked for more considering the price - we received much more than we expected and we didn't miss a thing or have a single complaint. Thanks for making our vacation!

Great downtown location!

I have enjoyed my stay very much. The central downtown location makes it a good starting point for all activities. Bus stop at the building entrance, shopping and parking in the building, beautiful common area roof-top terrace, market, harbour.....all within quick walking distance. This incluces the expected dowtown noise level, you easily get used to. Do not expect a quiet place near the water or beach. The modern windows-fassade cannot block the street's noise. I have made suggestions for easily possible improvements of the single-pane-fassade above the windows up to the same top quality the rest of fassade and windows already have. With these improvements, I would give it 5-stars. The well equipt apartment is modern and bright with all amanities including air conditioning, easy to use. Internet works perfectly. TV-programs are restricted, but not necessary for an outside vacation. The pictures on the webside show reality. You quickly feel at home. On- and offline-services works very well and are quickly responsive. Jan Christoph Kersig
