Absolute perfect. All - much better than on photos.
Thank you for all. Property is huge, location is great, with garage.
Actually all things was perfect.
If we are sometimes return to Madeira, this flat will be first thing, which i check it.
We were happy with all the conveniences this property offered. With a full kitchen we were able to make some meals for ourselves and pack lunches for our lavada walks. Bus service was very close so no need for a car. Loved the roof to patio, lots of sunshine.
We stayed in the apartment for one week. And when we arrived we were so surprised cause it was really more beautiful then on the pictures. The apartment had everything you need for a relaxed stay in a foreign country and we needed to buy nothing cause everything was already there. From salt and pepper to laundry detergent and cooking items. The place was very clean and was prepared lovely - with flowers waiting for us on the tables.
We really enjoyed our stay there.
Comfortable, but a shortage of bed linen and then the hot water was very sporadic and just sometimes just a trickle! Also no cushions for sun beds!These things didn’t cause us too much trouble, but thought I’d better mention them Annette
Lovely apartment with terrace that gets full sun and a cooler balcony on the north side. Good Comms with the owners and everything in the flat that we needed. Really comfortable bed and big sofas in the living room.
Good WiFi, although a bit hit and miss on the terrace.
One caveat. It's a noisy area. It's residential so there are people fixing stuff, setting off for work at 6am, a cockerel at 5.30, motorbikes and lots of barking dogs. It was very very warm so we had the doors and windows open all night, so we heard all the noises.

Fabulous!
Other than being hard to find, everything about the apartment was great. It was remodeled to a high standard, large apartment, great views and deck, intro food, large shower. Great location, walkable restaurants, pharmacy, grocery. Super local neighborhood. Parking garage.
Heads up; Manager did have an add-on cost paid in cash on site. Regardless of amount or reason for this charge, it should be have been included in the VRBO quote or in the contract.
We really enjoyed our stay. The owner, who was very helpful, met us as arranged, showed us around and told us about the local facilities. The apartment has everything one could want, is spacious and is in excellent condition. We liked the large balcony with sea views. It was also very quiet, being at the top of the block.
There is a food shop about 100 metres away which had excellent fruit and vegetables and met all our food needs, and which seemed to have very long opening hours - we never found it closed. There are several restauarants very close by, one with a take away service. There are regular buses to and from Funchal. We used the bus system for three of our days there and hired a car for the other three which made going further afield easier.
Higly recommended.
Many positives staying here
Very nice apartment and well equipped
Very clean
Liked the coffee making options
Because we were there in winter it was a little cool at times but owners provided a heater which was much appreciated
Owners/Peter were very responsive when we had questions
Great spot to visit the rest of the island as the main highway was easy to access if you are renting a car
We were out on the road quite a bit exploring various towns and villages and walking many of the wonderful levadas
Bus service into Funchal was very close and easy to use if you didn't want to drive into the city and you can stay here comfortably without a car
There were several restaurants close by that were good
The Ravioli was our go-to place for morning coffee and a tart
We stayed for about one month
In hindsight I would probably have split some of that time between Garagua and Funchal, which we thought was a wonderful city
One negative was the barking dogs in the neighboring hosues, even if that is out of the control of the owners of the apartment
Overall, a nice place to rental

Modern well equipped apartment. Sea view from balcony, near good cafe/restaurants & food stores
Communication with agent was excellent so no problems finding the apartment. Secure locked parking under the building with lift to the apartment. Lovely place to stay, clean, very modern, tastefully, and comfortably furnished. Had all the equipment we needed. A bowl of local grown fruit, cake and biscuits where a nice welcome gift. Ana, the owner, met us with the keys and gave us useful information about the local amenities. Close to reasonably priced restaurants and food stores. Easy drive to lots of places on the island although our 1.2 Corsa struggled a bit with some of the steep hills! It did the job but we will hire something a little more powerful next time! We loved Funchal, new year fireworks were epic! Loved the toboggans and tropical gardens at Monte. Went to the natural swimming pools at Porto Moniz. We braved the 17 degree water and enjoyed our December swim in the Atlantic! The faint hearted might rather do it in the summer!! Nice place though. We also enjoyed the Sky Walk which was free. Would recommend the Central Restaurant in Canico we were only in Medeira a week and we went twice! :)
Très confortable appartement, bien situé pour une visite complète de Madère
Bel appartement avec équipements top et 2 terrasses avec vue sur mer pour l’une. Bien situé pour visiter toute l’île, l’hébergement n’est pas loin d’une supérette bien achalandée (banamadeira)et d’un resto (raises des izles) Très correct en prix et surtout à la cuisine locale savoureuse et copieuse. Très bon séjour dans cette location qui présente un plus avec son garage souterrain
Die Wohnung entsprach voll unseren Vorstellungen und die Gastgeberin, die uns persönlich empfing, war ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit mit Tipps und bei Problemen.Wir konnten vor 16.00 einchecken, und in der Wohnung erwartete uns ein netter Willkommensgruß in Form eines Obstkorbes und eines Glases Honig.Die Wohnung - insbesondere auch die Küche mit Gewürzen, Öl, Haushaltsrolle, Kaffepads, Nescafe usw. usw. - ist sehr gut ausgestattet (uns fehlte lediglich eine Spülmaschine, aber das ist klagen auf hohem Niveau) und in der Tiefgarage gab es einen geräumigen Parkplatz für den Mietwagen. Von der Garage kommt man bequem mit dem Aufzug in die oberste Etage, wo sich die Wohnung befindet, von deren Terrasse man einen weiten Blick auf den Atlantik hat.
Schöne großzügige Wohnung in guter Lage auf Madeira
Das Treffen mit der Vermieterin (Ana Paula) war sehr unkompliziert. Wir haben eine kurze Führung durch die Wohnung erhalten, in der uns alles erklärt wurde. Wir haben uns auch sehr, über den Obstkorb mit lokalen Spezialitäten z.B. einer "Anona" gefreut. Ana Paula stand uns währen unseres Aufenthalts immer zur Verfügung, die Kommunikation war sehr unkompliziert. Auf Nachfrage, haben wir z.B. am gleichen Tag eine elektr. Heizung bekommen. Die Lage der Wohnung ist sehr schön, man hat eine schöne Aussicht von der Terasse auf das Meer. In der Nähe und fußläufig erreichbar, sind Restaurants/Cafes und Bars, sowie 2 kleine Supermärkte, bei denen man sich alle Dinge des täglichen Bedarfs einkaufen kann. Zu erwähnen sind die Hunde in der Nachbarschaft, die im Laufe des Tages öfter mal bellen. Im Laufe der Nacht ist es jedoch meistens ruhig. Wir kommen gerne wieder.
Wir fanden die Wohnung super. Viel platz, modern eingerichtet, küche super ausgestattet (kein geschirrspüler). Der blick beim Frühstück von der Dachterrasse ist wunderschön. Die Umgebung ruhig und nicht von Touristen überlaufen. Das gebell der hunde haben wir
wir als nicht so störend empfunden. Jederzeit würden wir hier wieder übernachten.
Nous avons passé un bon moment dans l'appartement de Peter !
La communication a été parfaite du début à la fin.
L'appartement est spacieux et bien équipé. Petite plus pour la terrasse avec vue mer.
Die Unterkunft hat eine tolle Lage. Die Aussicht vom Balkon mit Blick auf das Meer war sehr schön! Die Wohnung war sauber; besonders hervorzuheben ist auch die tolle Ausstattung. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. + Nette Schlüsselübergabe.
Zur Umgebung ein Nachteil: die Ruhe wurde des Öfteren durch Hundegebell etwas gestört. Eine Beobachtung aus dem Wohnzimmerfenster zeigt einen Hund, der Tag und Nacht alleine auf der Terrasse eingesperrt ist und der abgesehen von Essen und Trinken keine Aufmerksamkeit bekommt. Das hat die Urlaubsstimmung leider etwas getrübt, aber hat natürlich nichts direkt mir der Unterkunft zu tun.
Von Anfang bis Ende hat alles super geklappt. Sehr nette Vermieterin, schöne saubere Wohnung mit toller großer Dachterrasse. Küche ist gut ausgestattet, man findet alles was man benötigt. Hier sind schon einige Rezensionen bezüglich bellender Hunde erschienen, ja es ist manchmal so, aber es ist überall so. Nachts war Ruhe und tagsüber ist man eh unterwegs.
Das Appartement entsprach genau der Beschreibung.
Es war sehr sauber. Alles was man braucht war vorhanden. Die Lage war perfekt, in wenigen Minuten erreichte man mit dem Auto die schönsten Gegenden.
Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und können es auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen.
