Varandas do Funchal I, city vacations.

Good location and good facilities

The apartment is located in a quiet residential complex. At night there was no noise from the neighbors or from the city, ideal for those who want tranquility. The location with respect to the historic center is exceptional: in less than 10 minutes you can reach the seafront, but there is the advantage of having a private garage (parking in Funchal is difficult to find and requires a fee). Ground floor apartment, really spacious with a nice little terrace from which you can exit directly to the swimming pool. Gas cooker with a good supply of utensils and a washing machine that is very useful for washing clothes after the long walks in Madeira.

great location. very easy walk in to funchal. spacious apartment.

It was nice to spend a week there. Everything needed was in the apartment. It was clean. Good location. Close to bus stop, also to that one where a bus from the airport stops. About 7minutes to the supermarket and 10minutes to the street with many cafes. The team was in contact in advance and provided their watsapp for communucation. The only problem was to go up from the main road. There are just a couple minutes to go up which is no problem for young people at all, but can be not that easy for seniors.

I enjoyed my stay in this lovely spacious apartment. The terrace gets sun in the morning. There was a funny, curious cat roaming the garden that made breakfast entertaining. I didn't get into the pool as I found it too cold but it was very well maintained and clean. The bed was very comfortable, kitchen had all the common appliances. The fridge makes a loud sound periodically but easy to ignore. Regarding the leakage in the shower, this is because there's a small slit between the glass screen and the bathtub and I fixed it by sliding a towel into the slit. No more water on the floor! The apartment is located on a steel hill, so may not be ideal for those who find it difficult to walk up hills but shouldn't be a problem if you have a car. There's a garage as well. The apartment is a 10 min walk from the city center and supermarkets. I would highly recommend this apartment.

An Island Apart ist obviously keen to keep customers satisfied. The apartment was clean and has all the comfort needed. Not far from the city but not fit vor disabled people (too many steps). The Service was good and fast.

My family enjoyed a fantastic week in Madeira and were all extremely happy with the apartment. Not only is it a great size, easily accommodating the four of us, it was also in a great location within minutes of the centre of Funchal, a large supermarket as well as the old market, cable car ride and the sea/marina front. Many fabulous restaurants were within a 15 minute walk. We hired a car for two days to tour around the island, and the provided car park spot was ideal - literally one lift stop below the apartment, and easy access via a key controlled electric door. Overall we can all heartily recommend staying here - you will not be disappointed

Very good location in the city center by walk just 5 minutes. The apartment is fully equiped with a lot of space, really comfortable. We enjoyed also the swimming pool.

O apartamento tem tudo o que é preciso, desde máquina de lavar roupa, de louça, máquina de café, secador de cabelo, estendal. Tinha detergentes para as máquinas, para a alouça, café, sal, pimenta, azeite e vinagre. A piscina é muito boa com água agradável, talvez com o máximo de 1,50m de altura. Fica a 5m a pé do centro do Funchal, descendo a rua vamos ter ao famoso Mercado dos Lavradores. No regresso é a subir... umas escadinhas ou uma subida íngreme: bom para fazer exercício! Cheguei com um pé magoado e um funcionário, um jovem muito simpático emprestou-me as suas canadianas/muletas e havia gelo no congelador! Vale a pena!

The apartment was a super solution to our stay in Madeira. A very quite and safe area, in the same time super close to the Funchal cafe&bars area, as well as to the harbor / walking distance! We felt there as in our own home - all utensils to our use, cute little balcony for breakfasts & dinners with a pool view :) Our IslandApart contact person was super responsive, kind and helpful. We could count on him with no issue - everything was explained very well & we were well taken care of. Garage included makes it all easy - it's better to rent a car if you wish to really see everything that Madeira has in store for adventure lovers. To sum up: We recommend IslandApart very much, and this place even more :)
