Casa Linhares
We stayed 13 nights at Fatima's. We've never had a place so clean! The accommodation is damp but Fatima makes sure that we are as comfortable as possible (spare sheets, towels in large quantities, etc.). The apartment is very well equipped, we did not lack anything. The views are splendid! Fatima and her family know how to welcome us, they are very kind and very responsive to our requests. The only negative point, but which is minimal compared to the full potential of the accommodation, is the sound insulation. The ceiling is just a floor and we can hear Fatima and her family walking if we stay in the apartment during the day. The noise never woke us up or prevented us from falling asleep. We highly recommend this accommodation and now know where to stay if we have the opportunity to return to visit the beautiful island of Madeira.

Ocean panorama on the top floor
I would recommend this spacious apartment of Beatrice without hesitation with two very nice terraces with a beautiful view... Well-equipped, good location... Paulo and Beatrice are very responsive by messages Top with optional private parking

Top Floor with Terrace in Funchal
Claudia is sweet and helpful, it has been a pleasure

Casa da Betty - luxurious w/aircondition
It has been sometime since I stayed in a real home-y and cosy house like Betty's. Our whole group (two families with small children ) was very pleasantly surprised by this beautifully decorated home. There were many essentials as well as some offerings by the host readily available. The location(although not very close to the historic center) is fantastic as it is possible to walk to some famous rock pools and a beach, as well as many restaurants, a mall and a supermarket. Would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat.

Swimming pool, balcony and sea view. Renovated studio.
Everything great! Communication went smoothly. The location is ideal. From there you can get everywhere easily and there is a shopping center with a supermarket directly across the street. Thanks !

Modern & New Studio w/ Pool & Oceanside View | G 🌟
We had a great time at Germano's. It's his parents who manage the accommodation, and they took great care to ensure that our stay went smoothly! Thank you again. The accommodation is impeccable, spacious, perfectly equipped. The views are superb and the pool is a real plus! There are plenty of good restaurants around, we enjoyed the calm and the very peaceful side of Jardim do Mar with nice walks. We found it hard to leave! A gem if you're looking for a unique place in Madeira for your vacation!

Renala I "With Jacuzzi" by PAUSA Holiday Rentals
We really enjoyed our stay in Madeira. This was the perfect home base for exploring the island. This home was amazing; larger and greater than expected. We really enjoyed the hot tub after a long day of hiking and exploring. I would definitely recommend this to others and would love to stay here again!

Geremoise
Flawless accommodation, great terrace, it's really a plus Barbecue available, very nice! Small downside on the bedding and the musty smell in the house. Please note, parking at the top of a very steep slope, difficult to access from the road...

"Shell Living - Infinity Loft"
We had an amazing time at this beautiful apartment. Every morning, waking up to the stunning views over Funchal and the ocean was a real treat. The apartment itself is stylishly designed and as someone who appreciates architecture and interior design, this apartement is a great choice.

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.

A LOJA, a cosy rural home
We have nothing but good things to say about Luis and his place. First, Luis is a thoughtful host who responded quickly to our requests and provided us with excellent recommendations. The place is beautiful, we had everything we needed. The bed is super comfortable. We had a car and the location of the accommodation was perfect for visiting all corners of the island.

CasaMar
We had a great stay,Afonso is a great host,very helpful and friendly You can find all the amenities you could need in the house,everything is very clean,we felt like home the entire time spent there We highly recommend Afonso as a host,we hope to meet again soon in Madeira

North Coast Cabana
This atypical accommodation on several floors is very beautiful and perfectly well appointed. We took advantage of the 3 outdoor spaces. Appreciated welcome with a nice touch on arrival (flowers, wine, beer, water, chocolate). We were also well advised for our outings and restaurants. Note: Not easy for me to park properly in the parking space but it is possible to park in a parking lot down the street. We are delighted with our stay at Adriana's

Refúgio do Tibéu
The place was perfect and lived up to our expectations. Quiet neighborhood and good location. Luis was very welcoming and gave good local recommendations. We highly recommend it!

Bujo House
Overall we had a great stay (8 nights) at Sofia's apartment. We loved the ocean view and the remote aspect, although the street that leads to it gets very busy (even more than we thought) during the day due to the nearby Anjos waterfall which, on occasion, can make parking a bit difficult (the apartment doesn't come with a parking sport so, as others mentioned, you need to park on the street). The check-in went smooth as the directions Sofia provided us were clear and easy to follow. Inside, the apartment is spacious, the 2 bathrooms were a big plus for us, and it had all the amenities we needed. The bed is very comfortable, though we switched the pillows and used the small pillows from downstairs as the main ones were a bit too big/stiff for us, after this change we slept great every night. The surroundings are silent, the only thing you hear are the ocean and the water running to the next-door banana plantation. We had a great time, Sofia was very kind, and we recommend this house!

Wood Pearl 145984/AL
The best part about the apartment is the stunning view you have outside. Carlos was really helpful and even helped us with our luggage when we checked in. As mentioned, the house is a little older and you will find some bugs downstairs (the bedrooms are upstairs). Carlos provided us with some spray which we could put by the doors and which would keep the bugs outside. I would really recommend his place especially if you like to spend most of your day outside since you’ll have a lot of space to do so.

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!

Surfside apartment in the heart of PaĂşl do Mar
Wonderful apartment right on the ocean. The apartment was very spacious and has everything you need. Also has easy parking just outside. An extra bonus is all the great restaurants nearby!

Ocean view and Infinity pool Apartment

Whitehouse408 Sw.Pool & Pvt. Parking
Wonderful host, kind and friendly, great recommendations, great place!

New dream luxury appartment in the Madeira Palace.
This condo was beautiful, clean, and had an amazing view. Plenty of seating, close to a grocery store and many restaurants. The infinity pool which looked over the ocean was lovely. We would definitely recommend.

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!

Jasmineiro | Serra - Ocean View Studio
We booked a room with a view and boy did we get a room with a view. With that view and the cleanliness of the room you hardly have to go outside to have a great vacation. But if you don’t want to do that you can also walk to the city center and the boulevard. If you rented a car you get plenty of private and free parking (even with a cat!). The host was a big help and made everything very easy. We are really happy with our stay and can recommend it to everyone!

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.
