This was our third time staying at this property. Joe's brother Nelson and his wife Ana greeted us when we arrived and were excited to show us all the upgrades Joe has done. New furniture in the living room, a new cabinet beside the table in the kitchen, new dishes and pots and pans and both bathrooms totally renovated. We love the location on the water and everything you need just a stroll away. We are hoping to return next year.
The apartment wasn't as described - it was better! The location was perfect - out of the city, but close enough to get there quick. A large balcony and view to die for, Plus another large balcony and views from the kitchen. It was the most well equipped place I had stayed in ever, complete with a clothesline and pegs to hang washing for longer stays.The apartment was huge and comfortably slept all 3 of my teenage children. I would definitley recommend.
Everything was a good fit.
The location of the apartment was just right for us. Directly at the promenade, with ample shopping opportunities and in walking distance to Funchal center. The bus stop was directly at the building.
The apartment itself was spacious as advertised. We had a very easy time with 5 people and enjoyed the big living room.
Contact with the owner was a breeze. If we had a question or request, everything went smoothly. Absolutely recommended!
Lovely stay at this large apartment right on the sea! Lovely views and more than enough space for everyone, great balcony to relax and have a bbq with family and friends.
The apartment was beautiful, two couples stayed perfectly. The area was very nice, away from tourist. But very easy to get anywhere you want. Bus stop right in front of the building. There’s a lot of hills! But there’s a walk down the steps through a tunnel and beautiful rock beaches several restaurants close by.
Had a great time in Madeira.
The condo had everything we needed.
Cleaners came every two weeks.
Location was great, close to shopping, promenade and restaurants. View of sunsets over the ocean were fantastic.
The flat is very spacious. The kitchen is well equipped. 2 complete bathrooms with showers. 3 bedrooms (2 double beds, 2 single beds) with television. 2 spacious balconies. Sea view with evening sun. I would book the flat again.
The apartment is the perfect place to stay in Funchal.
We loved the location and all the space there is in the apartment.
We would for sure, står there again.
Joe and Nelson were wonderful to deal with and our family thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The apartment is well located with fantastic views. Everything was clean and the checkin/checkout process was effortless. We will stay here again for future visits. Thank you Joe and Nelson!

CONGRATULATIONS BY THE MAGNIFICENT
excellent
I've been WITH MY FAMILY IN THIS MAGNIFICENT APARTMENT, loved our stay, APARTMENT CLEAN, ORGANIZED, WELL LOCATED, NEAR THE BEACH, NATURAL POOLS, RESTAURANTS, SUPERMARKETS AND COZY .It SHOPPING CENTER, THE EMPLOYEE WAS VERY polite and considerate.
We came here for a family vacation. The flat was amazing, clean and in a great location with wonderful views. There was nearby access to the ocean, supermarkets, coffee shops and restaurants. Also, easy access to coastal walking and downtown. We would definitely stay here again the next time in Madeira.
Also, Nelson was very helpful, and even helped us with a car battery issue.

Fantastic!
Wonderful apartment, clean, fantastic views, spacious and convenient location---we have stayed here 1-2 times per year and we will return!
Thank you Joe and Nelson.
The apartment was spacious and located in the same building complex with shops and restaurants. It was also right at the bus stops connecting directly to the center of Funchal as a well as to the airport. There was also a designated parking spot in the underground parking for the rented car. We all had wonderul time.
The apartment was as described, nice and spacious with a good view of the sea. Location is great in terms of convenience, very close to shops and the local beach. Communication with the owner was good, our kettle turned out to be broken and we messaged them and they brought a new one same day. We had a problem checking in only because the contact number was not working for us, in the end we found it worked if you added 003 at the start of the number, this may have been in the information sent to us but we couldn't find it at the time. Once the call went through they came over very quickly to let us in. Unfortunately one thing that disturbed our stay was that the upstairs neighbours are loud, they get up early (5am) and have the TV on late, chairs scrape on their floors, this would be fine except for you can hear everything coming through the ceiling. The road noise is also loud if you are in the bedrooms that are next to the road. For this reason if you are noise sensitive or a light sleeper I would recommend bringing earplugs. This is not the hosts fault, we just found it a bit noisy for us personally. Other than that, a lovely stay in a nice apartment with helpful hosts.
Excellent place to stay, I could look at the view forever!
Joe & his brother Nelson are excellent hosts. The apartment is roomy and a perfect place for me, my brother and sister, each with our own bedroom (I got the ensuite!).
The kitchen is well equipped and balconies on either side provided shade and sun (weather permitting) as required.
Excellent transport links into Funchal via the bus stop right outside, and the shopping area in the centre has a supermarket ideal for most items when we don't want to make the 10 minute hike up to the Forum where there is a large supermarket.
Varied restaurants within a 2 minute walk are ideal to suit any palate.
All in all a perfect location for a Xmas / New Year break. Wish we could stay longer!
Spacious apartment 100 yards from the sea.
Quiet location .
Balcony with lovely view over the water and stunning sunsets spring to autumn.
Fine selection of bars and restaurants on your doorstop .
The Forum shopping centre is a 5 minute walk.
The bus at the front door takes you into the centre of Funchal in 15 minutes or you can take a lovely walk along the bay in 45 minutes.
Since finding this apartment in April 2016 we have been back 7 times.
That says it all .

Superb
Property in a lovely quiet location away from the bustle of Funchal centre.
Views from the apartment particularly at sunset spectacular.
Lovely walk along the promenade into town 45mins.
Bus leaves every 20 mins from in front of the apartment . Journey time to Funchal centre 15 mins.
Supermarket and some fine resturants minutes from the apartment.
Apartment bright and spacious.
Joe and Nelson very helpful with any queries that arose.
The fact that we have already booked a further week in December says it all.
