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, Madeira Wine Lodge, etc …)

Home comforts while traveling

This property was very comfortable & clean. The kitchen had everything necessary for a 4-night stay (you supply the food, of course). The location in Funchal could not have been better!!!! Easy walking to shops, local restaurants & marina nightlife.

Perfect stay in Funchal

Centrally located apartment in Funchal. Spacious apartment with lots of light and a big roof terrace. Fully equipped from a coffee maker to a first class laundry room. If you like it urban with everything in walking distance, this is the place to stay.

Spacious appartment

This spacious appartment was in a central location, close to restaurants and bars. The main street and supermart/shopping centre just up the road. We enjoyed the large balcony which was north facing, offering some shade and good views of the town and hillside.

Not a professional company

Very bad follow-ups on reported problems. We had to live with a sewage problem for our whole stay. Poorly equipped apartment. I would recommend to avoid An Island Apart.

Emplacement parfait et excellent service à la clientèle!

Nous avons passé un super séjour dans cet appartement. La situation géographique est parfaite, les principales attractions de Funchal peuvent se faire directement à pied et il y a plusieurs arrêts d'autobus à proximité. On trouve toutes les commodités à distance de marche (resto, épiceries, boutiques, etc). On a aussi beaucoup aimé la rapidité et l'efficacité de l'équipe du service à la clientèle. Chaque fois qu'on a eu une question, ils nous ont répondu en moins d'une heure. D'ailleurs, on a eu un petit problème avec la toilette et l'équipe de maintenance est arrivée dans l'heure qui a suivi. On réserverait assurément à nouveau à cet endroit si on revenait à Madère.

Loved it

This place was well furnished and lovely. At one point, the battery on the keypad died and I got locked out, and they were quick to fix it and problem solve. They were super responsive to any and all of my needs and questions. The bed was great, the location was perfect. I would highly recommend and stay again if I return to Madeira!

Lovely apartment in Funchal

The Downtown apartment was in an excellent location with local attractions and amenities on the doorstep. The apartment itself had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It was in a nice area, felt safe and was very clean. In comparison to other apartments we have stayed in around Europe, this one was quite large and excellent value for money. I would definitely recommend any of the apartments in this building.

Estadia FNC I-2022

Gostei: da localização, do espaço interior, da varanda (virada a norte, mais fresca), da limpeza, do sossego e da acessibilidade. Não gostei: máquina de café de filtro (devia ter uma máquina de café expresso), varanda pouco equipada (justificava-se a existência de umas cadeiras de relaxe), lençóis com aspeto de demasiado usados (deviam ser substituídos) e faltou sabonete para mãos e papel higiénico. Não gostei mesmo: da falta de cortina de "blackout" da porta junto à "kitchenette" (apesar de ter solicitado a verificação antes do início da estadia para 3 pessoas). Contatei um colaborador da AIA e este, apesar de dizer me contactaria para resolver o problema, nunca o fez. A situação foi remediada no dia seguinte, ao encontráramos a cortina, sem grampos, na arrecadação. Retiramos alguns grampos de outra cortina e improvisamos.

Central location, fantastic use of space, lovely patio

Stayed for a week before moving up the coast to a house that's managed by the same company. Absolutely loved the fact that it's the top floor of the building with a massive patio to enjoy breakfast and dinner outside. The apartment is clean and close to just about everything needed for a comfortable stay. There's a large shopping centre 4-6 minute walk away, and plenty of restaurants in the area to have a quick snack or dinner. Will be coming back for a longer stay!
