On the top floor of a historic building in the old part of town, it's set on a narrow street with shops, bars, and restaurants below – yet it's still surprisingly quiet at night. A good size for a couple or a small family, it has modern interiors, all-white walls, and pretty parquet flooring. The living space includes a small but well-equipped kitchen and a dining table, while the bedroom is behind a large set of pocket doors, meaning it can be closed off for privacy or remain open to create a more flexible space. But this home's crowning glory is definitely its spacious private terrace. With tables and chairs, it's the perfect spot for breakfast each morning or pre-dinner drinks in the evenings. Close by you'll find the famous farmers’ market (Mercado dos Lavradores), the historic centre of Funchal and the Cathedral, while Funchal Marina is within walking distance too.

Inside, it’s fuss-free and homely with a squashy leather sofa for kicking back with a glass of traditional Poncho in the evenings. When you’re ready to explore, we recommend taking the short drive into Funchal. Check out the Fortress of São Tiago, Museum of Sacred Art and Santa Catarina Park. Take it easy and relax on Formosa Beach or if you're in the mood for something a little more exciting, why not embark on a whale-watching adventure?

Perched on the edge of Madeira’s south coast, this charming home has got ‘summer’ written all over it, boasting light-drenched interiors and a lush, tree-lined garden with views towards the Atlantic. There might not be a ton of showstopping amenities at this home, but that doesn’t mean we can’t see ourselves spending all day relaxing here, book in one hand and glass of wine in the other as one of our fellow guests rustles up a Portuguese-inspired feast in the kitchen. We can almost taste the seafood now…

If you fancy a change of scenery, though, you’re within easy reach of Praia Formosa, known for its black pebbles and sand. Settle in for a day of sunbathing or slip into your swimming trunks and go for a refreshing dip in the glistening water followed by a small plate or two at one of the local restaurants. Then, when you’ve had your daily dose of being out and about, head back home and watch the sun set from your private balcony. We can’t think of a better way to end the day.

It's those show-stopping balcony views of Funchal's charming rooftops and glistening sea beyond taking all the glory at this luxurious apartment perched right in the heart of the city. But there's much to be admired inside this high-style bolthole too.

Set in the city's former School of Fine Art, there's some serious design wizardry at play here. While historic features nod to the building's grand past and bring the wow factor (that sweeping staircase and marble-clad foyer are a case in point), everywhere else is a masterstroke in modern living.

Free-flowing and light-filled, the space is cleverly zoned into living and sleeping spaces with a high-spec, marble-clad bathroom at its heart. Sunny mornings call for lazy breakfasts at the bistro table for two with the balcony doors flung open wide. There's everything you could need to rustle up brunch and mimosas in the designer kitchen with a view. Or keep things easy and do like the locals with freshly brewed coffees and obligatory pastel de natas.

When it's time to stretch your legs and explore, you can easily wander to all the city's hotspots from here – starting with the charming marina for a dose of fresh sea air. Then the rest of the day is yours to lose yourself to the city's atmospheric streets, stumbling across Fado bars for live music and Poncha cocktails along the way – just like you imagined.

And when you’re looking for an inspiring yet quiet space to relax amidst your island adventures, you’ll find this apartment waiting with a warm welcome. 

With its history as the School of Fine Arts, the owners have transformed this building into a contemporary city sanctuary – creating a refreshingly simple apartment that brings comfort to daily living. And just like a blank canvas, this is the kind of space that inspires you to make it your own. 

Enjoy planning your day from the snug sofa or keep things spontaneous and let the city be your guide. From here, it’s just a short stroll to the waterfront, while the centuries-old Cathedral and Funchal Municipal Garden are also within easy reach.

Wine on the Terrace

Part of a former fine arts school, this apartment is the perfect spot to kick back and unwind.

We love how bright it is, and the sleek, contemporary design only heightens how cosy it feels. We can already imagine lounging on the sofa – a glass of Madeira wine, optional – and gathering around the dining table to snack on a home-cooked Prego, a Madeiran steak sandwich. The comfortable bed will sure to be calling your name – snuggle in and wake up the next day feeling refreshed and ready for adventure.

Rustle up something tasty at the fully-equipped kitchenette or fall back onto the sofa with a good book. Outside, there’s a large terrace for barbecues on balmy afternoons and glasses of traditional Poncha come nighttime.

Bright, modern and centrally located in the heart of Funchal, this comfortable flat has everything you need for a relaxing stay in Madeira’s capital city. With its atlas-inspired artwork, white walls and large private balcony, you’ll feel a spark of adventure from the moment you enter this home. Greet the day with breakfast on the balcony, framed by the neighbourhood’s leafy trees and a clear view of the ocean beyond. Then, set out to explore the city – wander around the waterfront, stroll through the botanical garden and sample Madeira wine in one of the countless bars and cellars. The Lido Bathing Complex with its saltwater pools and access to the ocean is also less than a ten-minute walk away. After a day of seeing the sights, come back home for sunset drinks on the balcony's sofa before enjoying a meal at home. Alternatively, head out to discover Funchal’s stellar food scene. At the end of the night, retreat to your bedroom and slide open the patio door to fall asleep to the gentle ocean breeze. 


Adventure Atlas

Madeira is a natural paradise, rich in mountains, pristine coastline, and luscious forests. From this apartment, despite being in the capital city, you're treated to those quintessential Madeiran views. Take in the scenery of the Atlantic Ocean and verdant mountains from the balconies here – a lovely reminder of what's out there to explore.

Not only does the home boast a fantastic location and awe-inspiring views, but it's also sleek, polished, and homely. We love the balance of natural woods and sparkling whites, providing you with a charming, airy space to unwind. From dinners around the dining table to getting cosy on the sofa with a good book, you'll feel at total ease. The home is delightful, but the view steals the show. Savour your morning coffee in the early sea breeze, and marvel at the fiery sunsets from your privileged position. 

When it comes to seeing the city, you'll love coastal morning walks along the promenade. There are endless cafes and eateries to be discovered, along with a colourful Old Town. And even the most reluctant of walkers will be captivated by Madeira's mountainous landscape – there are plenty of hiking trails to be taken.

The Best of Madeira

Beach Essentials

Contemporary decor, calming colour schemes and unique artwork all make this home feel like something special. Based in the vibrant coastal town of São Martinho, this peaceful dwelling sits just a short drive from the heart of Funchal, and is also within easy walking distance of wonderful bars and restaurants for casual nights out. 

We love the outdoor area, where you'll find a gorgeous private pool where you can float on a lilo with a cocktail in hand, and plenty of poolside loungers where you can enjoy relaxing in the sunshine.

Inside, you'll find a charming home-from-home that has everything you need for an effortless stay.

Glossy Reflections

Games Room

If it’s incredible views you seek, you’ve hit the jackpot here. This duplex apartment offers unrivalled views of Funchal, with the red-roofed cityscape, backed by sloping mountains and cliffs, meeting the Pacific Ocean. From this elevated position, the commanding view is truly exceptional, especially when the sky blends into reddish hues at dusk. 

Stepping inside, you’ll find an interior which is modern without lacking character. Contemporary meets mid-century with the furnishings, while rattan touches and verdant plants bring the home to life. It’s been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the view – when sinking into the sofa after a day on your feet, the TV is suddenly a lot less interesting. And when the sun starts to go down, the whole home is awash with the comforting hues of the sky. You’ll feel compelled to step out onto your balcony – morning coffees, afternoon cocktails, and nightcaps are a bit more special here.

There’s a lot to love about this home, including the fantastic location. Standing high on this hillside, you’re neighbouring the incredible Fortaleza do Pico – a 17th-century fort. Despite the altitude, you’re actually just a few minutes' walk away from the city centre and all its mouth-watering restaurants, museums, wine bars, and cultural landmarks. If you’re not racing home to make it back in time for sunset, you’ll love taking a walk along the romantic promenade at dusk.
