Charming Madeiran Hideaway

This comfortable and contemporary Funchal City home is perfect for a couple of couples or even a small family. Comprising a light-filled, open-plan kitchen, living and dining space – think whitewashed walls and wooden floors – this home has your back when it comes to both entertaining and relaxing. 

You’ll love taking your morning coffee at the gleaming marble breakfast bar before stepping into the walk-in shower and making a plan for the day. Spend time preparing firm family favourites in the all-white kitchen and dining altogether while putting the world to rights. Alternatively, spend time watching the world go by from your glass-fronted, street-view balcony before retreating inside for some well-earned chill time on the lounge-worthy L-shaped sofa.

If you fancy getting out and about, you’ll find you’re within walking distance of supermarkets, restaurants and bakeries while Praia Formosa, Marina do Funchal and Gorgulho-Gavinas Beach are also within easy reach. Those of you whose boots are made for walking will be delighted to know the public transport links here are excellent.
