Panorama sur l'océan top floor
One month stay in this attic style apartment on top floor of a 4-storey building. It is well-equipped, very well supplied and well furnished. The two excellent terraces have good furniture, lovely views and are private. The apartment is a 2-minute walk to the pedestrian promenade that leads to the Lido area and Formosa Beach and 8 minutes to the main road, bus stops and a good supermarket. Beatrice (the host) responded quickly before and during the stay and Paulo (her local agent) was welcoming - and there were also some nice welcome gifts. The internet worked well in the main living space and one of the terraces. The apartment building was generally quiet; you can hear construction noise from the nearby Dubai Madeira development - but not disturbing. The AC was not effective. Beatrice responded positively to my concerns, provided a portable fan (which helped) and has advised that new AC units will be fitted. Overall, a very good apartment and I have booked to return.

Stunning Ocean View Apartment
We loved our stay in Antonio’s apartment. It was extremely clean and spacious and had everything we needed and then some. It even had a parking garage for our car. I appreciated that Antonio provided plenty of coffee, soap, shampoo and even laundry detergent. That was really nice and convenient. I loved sitting on the deck overlooking the gorgeous ocean view drinking my coffee or sipping a glass of wine. It was so relaxing! I highly recommend booking Antonio’s place. He is a superb, kind host and will go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and happy.

Arco Apartment
Wij verbleven met 4 personen in het appartement. De ontvangst was warm en gastvrij. Catarina (co-host) heeft ons rondgeleidt. Bij binnenkomst stond er wat lekkers klaar en verse groente en fruit uit eigen tuin. Het appartement is groot en zeer compleet met een fijn dakterras. Wij verbleven hier van 29-4 t/m 7- 5. Omdat het weer fris was, werd er een elektrische kachel geplaatst. Voor de woning kun je op de parkeerplaats parkeren. Wij hebben voor en tijdens de vakantie gecommuniceerd via de app. Catarina reageert snel en denkt graag met je mee. Ze stuurt je na ontvangst een bericht met de huisregels, bezienswaardigheden, locaties van de supermarkten etc. Ze is erg enthousiast en als je haar iets vraagt krijg je snel antwoordt of probeert ze dingen te organiseren of te regelen. Tijdens ons verblijf had ze een bruiloft in Cyprus. Ze was dezelfde periode weg als ons verblijf. Maar zelfs nu konden we haar appen met vragen of tips. Ik raad dit verblijf graag aan, wij vonden het geweldig.

Top Floor with Terrace in Funchal
Wir waren 14 Tage inClaudias Wohnung und es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Lage der Wohnung ist super und die Terrasse unschlagbar. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

SUPER Central - Deep Blue
The #1 thing that stood out for me was how incredibly responsive and professional these hosts are. Some of the best I've ever had. Excellent communication, as flexible as they could be, and just really lovely people. The location of this apartment was absolutely incredible, the best that one could have hoped for, and spotlessly clean. It was quite cozy but really had everything I needed. It is on the top floor and the elevator wasn't working, which I wish I had known because I would have packed differently, but in the end it was 10 minutes of inconvenience for a fantastic stay. a highly recommend for me

Piscina, varanda e vista mar. Estúdio renovado.
Alles super! Die Kommunikation verlief problemlos. Die Lage ist optimal. Von dort aus kommt man über all gut hin und es gibt über die Straße direkt ein Einkaufszentrum mit Supermarkt. Danke !

Casa do Miradouro 2 - Romantic Seaview
Very modern flat with a beautiful balcony and amazing views of the surroundings. The host answered quickly and was very friendly. Great place to stay and very close to the Airport. I would come back.

Casa do Penique ORGANIC
We felt very relaxed and comfortable at Antonio’s lovely house and the garden and views were impressive. We appreciated the interesting features in the garden with its nature feel and enjoyed the pool and sauna which we thought was a real asset for the place. The house is interesting and cared about and Antionio was an excellent and helpful host. We were glad of the car we hired to access shops, restaurants, beach and walking areas as without one would be difficult but it suited us really well as 4 adults who wanted a base from which to explore Madeira.

Relax Over The Sea -12391/AL
Carlos’s place was fantastic! We really enjoyed our stay – the property was beautiful, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location was perfect, and everything was well taken care of. A special thanks to Carlos for the warm hospitality and helpful communication throughout. Would definitely love to come back someday. Highly recommended!

Casa Abreu bright and stylish, sea, nature & relax
Es war alles da, was man benötigt. Die Unterkunft ist stilvoll und sauber. Der Gastgeber war immer erreichbar und hat schnell geantwortet.

The Tree of Life House
Appartement confortable et tres fonctionnel situe a Ponta do Sol tres bien situe pour visiter l’ile. Accessible en voiture seulement Fanny a ete impecable . Elle loge au dessus de l’appart loué. Nous n’avons pas teste la tres belle piscine qui etait a bonne temperature mais a l’ombre en fin d’aprem quand nous rentrions. Par contre petit dej au soleil face a la vue sur mer

A LOJA, a cosy rural home
Wir haben unsere Ferien in Madeira und insbesondere die Wohnung in Campanàrio sehr genossen. Die Wohnung ist gemütlich, frisch renoviert und mit allem Notwendigen ausgestattet. Mit einem Mietauto ist die Lage ausserhalb der Hauptstadt kein Problem und man fühlt sich im Dorf, in der Bäckerei und in den Shops herzlich willkommen. Luis ist ein perfekter Gastgeber, hat eine Antwort auf alle Anliegen und ist trotzdem nicht aufdringlich. Wir können die Unterkunft für ein Paar sehr empfehlen.

Sea House
Ein tolles Haus in wunderschöner Lage! Näher am Meer geht nicht und das Meeresrauschen begleitet einen Tag und Nacht. Das Haus ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und super sauber. Man fühlt sich sofort wie zu Hause! Constantino ist sehr hilfsbereit und hat tolle Tipps. Ohne ihn hätten wir den kleinen Strand in Seixal nie gefunden... Wir waren 14 Tage hier und haben jede Minute genossen. Danke, Constantino!

Cabana Costa Norte
Ce logement atypique sur plusieurs étages est très beau et parfaitement bien aménagé. Nous avons profité des 3 espaces extérieurs. Accueil apprécié avec une belle attention à notre arrivée (fleurs, vin, bière, eau, chocolat). Nous avons également été bien conseillées pour nos sorties et restaurants. A noter : Pas évident pour moi de me garer correctement sur la place de parking mais il est possible de se garer sur un parking en bas de la rue. Nous sommes ravies de notre séjour chez Adriana

Refúgio do Tibéu
Le logement était parfait et à la hauteur de nos attentes. Quartier tranquille et bien situé. Luis a été très accueillant et a donné de bonnes recommandations locales. Nous recommandons fortement!

Amazing sea and city views, top location
Maria’s 8th-floor apartment was perfect! Super clean, spacious, and the balcony had amazing views of the marina, Santa Catarina park, and the city. It has two bedrooms — one with a double bed, the other with two singles — both with private bathrooms and closets. There are three bathrooms total, all spotless. The kitchen had everything, plus a dishwasher and coffee machine. Laura, who welcomed us, was so kind and helpful. She messaged me before arrival, arranged parking, explained everything in the apartment, and even brought us a big bottle of water and fresh coffee capsules the next day. She also gave great local tips. The building has great security and private parking. Honestly, the whole stay was smooth and comfortable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Madeira — close to everything!

Szuper kilátás, nagyszerű szálláshely!

Surfside apartment in the heart of Paúl do Mar
This apartment has a very good vibe! Would definitely recommend or choose again! You can watch and listen to the waves which makes it even more amazing. It is simple, pure and clean, towels were big and had a great scent. Pillows were good quality and very comfortable. There is a restaurant (and by the way very good restaurant) in the neighborhood, it’s not disturbing, there’s no music or shouting but there is some business in the evening until guests leave around 9pm.

Whitehouse408 Sw.Pool & Pvt. Parking
The host was incredibly helpful and friendly, sent us many local restaurant recommendations, very responsive. Totally recommend booking this place on your next trip!

New dream luxury appartment in the Madeira Palace.
Can’t recommend enough. Clean, fantastic space, great location. Marina really helpful and always responsive. Well equipped kitchen with everything for meals in but equally a 10 minute drive into Funchal. The view from the apartment is beautiful and the location means everything is easily accessible. Supermarket across the road. We didn’t hire a car because the location was so great.

Luxury 3 Bedroom Flat with Sea View Terrace
We had a great time at Miguel and Ana’s place. They have a beautiful condo close to the sea and with a lovely balcony and view. Very spacious and a nice location. Overall, loved it!

Penthouse Marina Sol 20785/AL
We stayed for one night during our round trip on Madeira, but we would have wanted to stay longer. The place is really spacious, laundry machine and a great terrace with sea view. Madalena do Mar with its banana fields and colorful houses is a charming beach town. Don’t expect sand here, but definitely worth a stop!

Atlantic View Penthouse
Afonso's place is perfectly located, within walking distance to everything in Funchal. The Airbnb has a balcony, with an amazing view of the ocean. It has a lot of amenities for your stay in Maderia. There is underground parking which is a huge plus as you can rent a car to go further away in the island. The USP of the stay is Afonso, who is really well connected and super helpful with all your questions. An amazing gentleman. The flat can be well ventilated by opening doors and windows, the sea air is perfect to cool you down after the walks. There is also a fan available, but as mentioned in the listing, there is no A/C. We had no issues as we could just open windows and balcony doors, while using the fans.
