Everything was perfect and the personal touches and welcome gifts were appreciated. The interior design was beautiful and everything we needed was provided. The balcony was wonderful for a glass of wine after a long day. Thanks so much Patricio and Lina

Perfect short stay

The apartment is cozy and very comfortable for a couple or even 3 people. The location is excellent being near restaurants, supermarkets and walking distance to any attraction in downtown Funchal. The owners are originally from the island and know it as no one. They are very friendly and helpful.

Central located appartment

Location very central in the old town. View from the balcony phantastic. Owner very friendly und support all the time. Unfortunately the location in the Santa Maria street (old town) is quite noisy- motorbikes all the night on one side and restaurant on the other side. If you are sensitive regarding noise it‘s not recommendable, if noise is not a problem for you the appartment is great, promenade, restaurants, cable car, etc. in short walking distance.

Great location & well equipped

This apartment is very well located and equipped, and very clean. The beds were comfortable. The owners have installed good windows which keep out sound, and blackout curtains to keep out the light if you need to sleep. However, you can also have a lovely breeze going through with the windows on both sides of the apt. when open. The terrace is a wonderful bonus, looking out to the sea. We also enjoyed the mountain views from the bedrooms, which change daily. The thoughtful welcome treats and extras were much appreciated. We hope to return.

Cozy with historic sea views

Apartment is at the quiet end of old town. It has a street and apartment entrance with a flight of stairs to second level. Quiet neighbors as well with a lovely deck overlooking an old fort/ restaurant and the sea facing south so lots of sun all day. Kitchen and apartment are spotless, bathroom has a double shower heads and a very comfortable bed. The deck has dining table with 4 chairs, swing chair and two loungers, we lived out there every night! Host provided lanterns with candles, tea lights, blankets and a cozy outdoor rug to stargaze or yoga! There are many restaurants right around the corner one that will serenade you with instrumental music… How perfect. Huge bowl of fruit, avacodo sand a beautiful bouquet of flowers were left for us, she made our stay very special. It really was very homey and we looked forward to returning each evening. She even has grocery cart on wheels for the market or your shopping. The thoughtful host did not miss any details. It was a fabulous experience and one of the best after traveling for 3 months through Spain and Portugal. Madeira wins!!

Fantastisches Apartment im Herzen von Funchal

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt im Balkony Apartment, das keine Wünsche offen ließ! Die Begrüßung war sehr nett und zuvorkommend, die Kommunikation zum Check-In war unkompliziert. Die Wohnung hat alles, was man braucht und liegt zentral direkt in Funchal, am etwas ruhigeren Ende der Rue Santa Maria. Die Terrasse ist ein Traum mit Blick auf das Meer und das Fort von Funchal. Das Fort ist leider recht lang beleuchtet, mit ein paar Handtüchern als Sichtschutz kann man sich abends aber gut selbst helfen. Wir haben eine Nacht sogar am Balkon geschlafen, es war wundervoll! Vielen Dank an Patricio und Lina, dass sie diese tolle Unterkunft mit anderen Menschen teilen!

Comfortable and well equipped apartment with a fantastic view

This is my first visit to Funchal, and staying here was perfect. The space is well laid out, the balcony offers one of the best views of the harbor, and Lina and her husband are perfect hosts. I spent mornings practicing yoga on the balcony and evenings watching the sunset over the fortress. My husband and I did have to do some work during our stay 🙁 I can’t complain since we were able to go for a swim or just chill out on the balcony inbetween conference calls. We hope to come back again soon ☺️ Look no further if you are also looking for a relaxing place to escape to for a week or a month.

Sonnenaufgang am Atlantik

Tolle Lage des Appartments: In der Altstadt gelegen, d. h. zentral, aber in einiger Entfernung zum Trubel; Bushaltestellen, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Restaurants etc. sind gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Der Blick vom Balkon auf den Atlantik ist einfach schön, man kann dort wunderbar entspannen, auch am Abend wenn Piano-Musik aus der St. Tiago-Festung herüberklingt oder am Morgen den Sonnenaufgang erleben. Das Apartment selbst ist liebevoll eingerichtet, wir haben uns dort sofort wohl gefühlt. Der Empfang war sehr gastfreundlich, mit frischem Obst usw. Wenn wir wieder nach Madeira kommen, dann sehr gerne wieder in dieses Apartment! Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt dort!

Einfach Toll!!

Wir können uns den vorangegangenen Bewertungen nur anschließen. Wir waren zum ersten Mal auf Madeira und mit Sicherheit nicht das letzte Mal. Wir würden uns, wenn es dann soweit ist, wieder für diese Wohnung entscheiden. Es hat für uns alles gepasst. Lage, Aussicht, Größe der Wohnung (ideal füe zwei) Balkon, einfach super. Man hat nicht weit zum Hafen, wo man viel unternehemn kann, Restaurants und Bars sind in unmittelbarer Nähe. Die Vermieter sind jederzeit für einem da und helfen weiter wo es geht. Danke nochmal Lina & Patricio, hoffentlich bis bald!

Best place to be

Die Wohnung liegt in einem kleinen, gepflegten Haus in der Altstadt, ist sehr geschmackvoll in schönen Farben eingerichtet und mit allem Notwendigen und Nützlichen prima ausgestattet. Von der großen Terrasse, die wie die Wohnung sehr ansprechend gestaltet und möbliert ist, hatten wir einen phantastischen Blick auf das alte Fort, das Meer, den Hafen und die Bucht von Funchal. Zu all dem trafen wir mit Lina und ihrem Mann auf sehr sympathische und hilfsbereite Vermieter, die uns noch dazu mit einer großen Obstschale und Getränken empfingen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! Hier stimmte einfach alles! Muito obrigada, Lina!

Séjour très agréable!!!

Nous sommes très satisfaits de l'appartement. À notre arrivée, nous avions des fruits locaux, des pâtisseries ainsi que d'excellents petits pains. C'est une très délicate attention de la part de Lina. Nous avons profité de la disponibilité du garage puisque nous avions une auto de location. Nous avons beaucoup visité l'île, mais nous y retournerons sans doute pour voir les endroits que nous avons ratés. Les communications avec Lina ont été très efficaces ce qui nous a fait apprécié davantage notre séjour. MILLE MERCIS!!!

Fantastic!!!!

Location Location Location- I don´t want to sell this apartment, but I would buy it if I could :-) We loved every moment - due to the wonderful balcony overlooking the sea. We spent every possible moment outside on this wonderful balcony and enjoyed being in Madeira. The apartment provides everything that you need and is perfectly clean. Lina is a darling and welcomed us with a beautiful basket full of fresh fruits, bred etc. Would come back in a heartbeat - muito Obrigado to Lina and all the wonderful people in Madeira.

Attractive, well equipped and brilliantly located property with great hosts

This was our third visit to Madeira and the best so far. This was partly because the apartment we stayed in was ideal for us. It was well-designed and decorated, very well equipped, with a beautiful balcony and a stunning view over the São Tiago fort, the sea beyond, and across to the cruise ship harbour. The location at the end of the old town was perfect with a large number (and, to some extent, variety) of restaurants close by and only a short, mainly flat, walk to the cable car station and to the centre of Funchal. The early part of our week was overcast and cool, but we didn’t mind because we found plenty to do, and the apartment was always nice to come “home” to. Later in the week, we really enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the hot sun watching the passing people and boats. Lina the property owner, and her husband, are very nice people, and were responsive to enquiries and messages via the HomeAway App, throughout the booking process and stay. She met us upon arrival, and we appreciated a number of nice touches to welcome us. We had a very minor issue early on which was speedily resolved; it seemed nothing would be too much trouble. The only slight downside to our stay was that as a “young” (but actually middle-aged) couple we did not find anywhere to go for a drink with any life in it after about 11pm. Perhaps this was because of the time of year. But we enjoyed looking at the night-time view of sea and stars from the balcony instead. Highly recommended, and we will go again. Our thanks to the thoughtful owner.
