Known for its wide boulevards, pretty squares and interesting museums, Funchal is a dream of a location. We love this contemporary, freshly refurbished apartment's setting – it's easy to enjoy the city's historical attractions, such as Funchal Cathedral, or have a wander around the stylish marina, just over a five-minute walk away. There are plenty of restaurants and cafés right on your doorstep, but if you prefer to cook at home, head to Mercado dos Lavradores, Funchal's famous farmers' market, around a ten-minute stroll. Back at your apartment, prepare a tasty meal with your fresh, local produce in the modern kitchen. Enjoy the fruits of your labour on your private terrace with a glass of wine and watch the light fade. After a busy day sightseeing, unwind in the bright, open-plan living space or get some rest in the bedroom with its calming tones and wake refreshed to start a new, exciting adventure in Madeira.

Made up of three main islands (Madeira, Porto Santo and Desertas), this geographical marvel flung out in the Atlantic is regularly voted Europe’s best island escape. And with its deliciously temperate climate year-round, extraordinary tropical flora and fauna, dramatic forested mountains and hilltop villages, it’s easy to see why. Start by exploring Madeira’s capital...
