Exceptional
Brilliant
Liked: Very clean and comfortable. Stunning view
Disliked: Not
Liked: Cozy, clean and spacious apartment, with a large terrace for sunbathing or watching planes, although if you are a sensitive sleeper, the noise from planes early in the morning can be unpleasant.Check-in was smooth and informative, questions that arose during the stay were answered promptly. It was nice to find fruit, cookies and fresh flowers as a sign of welcome. The location was good, there were several shops and cafes nearby.
Disliked: I missed the clothes hanger downstairs because I had to store my outdoor clothes on the dining room chairs, the portable clothes dryer, and the oven.
Liked: Amazing property and great stay for a fantastic, Holiday in Madeira, had everything we needed for our stay and we will be back
Exceptional
Liked: Super Location just outside Funchal, close to the main road to get around the Island. Amazing accommodation with 2 single beds and 1 double. Has 2 showers and with 3 bathrooms. All the cooking facilities you need and a great view to drink morning coffee and watch the sea or watch the planes land. Also has off road parking for 1 car. Comfy beds and super easy to find! Thanks for a great stay.

Super views, pristine property and great value
Liked: Super clean.Nice welcome gift of fruit n cookies. Great view of the Despertas islands and airport approach from a sunny large terrace where you can watch the aviation ballet of comings and goings. A large double and a twin bedroom and two showers. The one I tried had good pressure and temperature. Well equipped kitchen but no regular oven so don’t buy a pizza! Usual condiments and oil and vinegar available. So the accommodation gets a 9/10. One point deduction for a steep approach road from which you need to reverse into the front yard parking spot. Don’t get bigger than a Clio or Captur car and a rear reversing camera or companion to guide you in. Do it once and you will have the hang of it. Also there is a live music venue in town and the noise travels and they are strumming till after midnight. Close the doors and windows use ear plugs and if you go to bed early it shouldn’t be a problem. All that said the view is great, the house is super clean and the price/quality proposition is compelling. Go for it…👍😁
Disliked: Steep approach and noise from the music venue in town
