About this property

House with garden and view over Bay of Funchal

Casa Sisse is situated in a suburb, east of Funchal, the capital of Madeira island, with a picture postcard view over the city and the Bay.

It is situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with no traffic near the house.
On the Google map it looks like the house sits right next to the motorway. However, as we are placed on a hillside*), the house lies some 6 to 8 meters below the surface of the motorway, and besides, my own house lies between the motorway and Casa Sisse offering further noise protection.
*) Hence the suggestion of renting a car.

The house was built in 1981 with a large kitchen, large living room, one bedroom with sea view and a second bedroom in the back of the house, both equipped with double beds. Maximum number of guests is 4.

The house has comfortable chairs, sofa, beds and pillows, duvets, blankets, wardrobes and a bathroom with shower. The house has a sociable open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room area.

The kitchen is well equipped with dishwasher, fridge/freezer, microwave and electric fan oven, as well as other household appliances.
In the front garden is a table seating 4 persons, and deck chairs.
The house has broadband internet access / Wi-fi and cable TV. Private parking next to the house.

The owner is a Danish expatriate who lives nearby. He has many years of experience with tourism in Madeira and will help you with tips and suggestions if needed.

Lugar independiente
Bonita casa independiente, bastante equipada pero con muebles de cierta antigüedad y uso. Ideal para mi objetivo que era descansar después de hacer senderismo, por tanto ideal para las mochilas, botas, bastones … Necesita alguna actualización en cuanto a mobiliario, según mi parecer. Contacto muy bueno con Toger.

Ferienhaus mit urigem Charme
Das Ferienhaus ist komplett eingerichtet und war früher das Wohnhaus des Vermieters Toger. Dieser wohnt gleich nebenan, spricht perfekt Englisch und ist sehr hilfsbereit, freundlich und nett. Das Mobiliar ist schon sehr in die Jahre gekommen, und das Haus ist voller persönlicher Gegenstände von Toger. Wer sich daran nicht stört, kann einen schönen Aufenthalt genießen. Der Ausblick auf Funchal aus dem Garten ist fantastisch, die Bushaltestelle ist nicht weit entfernt und es gibt Parkplätze für das Auto. Für den Preis eine sehr nette und ruhige Unterkunft.

Great place to stay
Toger is an absolute legend and his cottage is lovely. A little rustic but immaculately clean, thanks to the lovely lady that comes and looks after that side of things. It’s also the best equipped rental I think I’ve ever stayed in. It’s on the outskirts of Funchal in an area called Sao Concalo, up a steep hill with some lovely views over the harbour. We really enjoyed watching all the ships come and go every day. It was particularly beautiful once the sun went down and all the city lights went on. There’s a cute garden area with seating and loungers. Toger has two lovely, very polite dogs who may come and visit you if you’re lucky, but if dogs aren’t your thing, you can just shut the garden gate and they won’t bother you. Inside the cottage, both bedrooms are spacious with very comfortable beds. We both slept exceptionally well every night. The living room is very big with comfortable seats and a huge sofa. There’s TV and stuff, but we never used it, so can’t comment on the channels or whatever. The bathroom was clean and the shower worked well. The kitchen and dining area had everything you needed for a comfortable stay, with a good sized fridge and a fan oven that worked fine, as well as a gas hob. We also made use of the bbq a couple of nights we were there. Wifi worked well. I loved it so much that I’m coming back next year.

Great Cottage with fabulous views
Had a great week here and thoroughly enjoyed Madeira! Toger was a superb Host. He lives above the cottage and is extremely kind / accommodating! Cottage is well stocked with anything and everything you might need. Be aware that driving to this location is a bit of an adventure - but that seems to be the norm on Madeira! Overall, very happy with my stay!!

My three month stay at Casa Sissi
I spent 3 months here.It is roomy and well situated.I would suggest you need a car.Madeira is very hilly, getting to the bus is reserved for those in shape.Hills are not limited to the neighborhood but on the entire island.To give you an idea, the whole island is mountainous with no less than 153 highway tunnels, some 2km.If you pickup a car after dark,would suggest you leave it on Rua do Serrado,at the property entrance in the large circle area just below.The parking spot is in the middle of the hill on the property at a sharp right turn with low level wall. Very very difficult to see when it's pitch black. €549 later,I can give you some adviceThe phrase "a gentleman and a scholar" was coined for the owner,Toger Amby, who really fits the bill. It was a pleasure to stay on his property.The cleaning lady, Paula,is very efficient,friendly and comes every week.The kitchen fridge is a good size with a large enough freezer, both work very well.The dishwasher is also excellent.The hot water is provided by an Instant-on gas burner located behind the house in the add-on covered alley, where the automatic washer is located.The view of Funchal harbour from the front steps is magnificent.The weather here is generally fair and stableThe expressways and major highways are excellentTo sum it up,This selection is very welcoming with large rooms. It is good value for the money. Rest assured that Toger will be on hand to ascertain that your visit is a pleasant and memorable one.ThankYou Toger

Felt like home
Wir fühlten uns sehr Willkommen und auf Anhieb wie zu Hause. Es war eine gemütliche Atmosphäre mit altem Mobiliar, was gar nicht störte, in einer sehr sauberen Umgebung. Es war alles vorhanden was es braucht um einen schönen, gemütlichen Aufenthalt zu gewährleisten. Der Besitzer war direkt zur Stelle bei irgendwelchen Fragen oder Reparaturen. Wir haben viel Zeit im Garten verbracht, wobei die Autobahn weniger störte als vermutet. Wir kommen wieder.

Quiet, Secure, Convenient and such a cute place!
Very nice cosy place where we spent 13 nights. Very clean, well equipted kitchen and closed to Funchal, a nice base camp for exploring Madeira. Highlights: Sunset from the porch, very quiet (no nosy neighbour), parking, hot water, lot of space (full house). The host has been very generous with its time guiding us from the airport to the house with its own car. A very nice guy, very attentive! His house is just aside the place and easy to reach. Downnside: a bit dark inside the house even with full light on. No bathtub. The shower need a drain clean up as the water fill up to an inch on its base covering your feet but gradually water makes its way out once you shut down the water. Also its old wooden side walls got several black stained spots in the corners and around the base which is not very appealing to get inside. I thing it's time to replace that unit to gain an extra star. Overall, a good deal for what it provides, I would recommend that place and I would rent it again.

Amazing place
Tögur is a very pleasant host that gives a lot of nice information. The information beforehand was clear and we could checkin midnight. The house was humble and it had all that was needed. (Kitchen was overcomplete) The view on Funchal is amazing. We felt very welcome and would really advice booking this place for every stay. Remember when booking if this is something for you: -Easy going and nice host, to have a good talk (lives nextdoor) -good views on Funchal -everything you need is there (washing machine, dishwasher, towels for showering, sunbed) -little outdated. Bit molt in the bathroom Tögur, thank you for the pleasant stay.

Great Location
Nous avons bien apprécié notre séjour. Nous y sommes resté 11 nuits pour la visite de l’île en entier. L’accès à l’autoroute est très facile et à proximité. Bien que la maison aurait besoin d’un petit rafraîchissement et quelques rénovations, elle est toute équipée et très fonctionnelle. Il ne manque de rien et les lieux sont très chaleureux. Nous avons aimé la terrasse extérieure avec la vue sur la baie. L’hôte est très accueillant et ses 2 petits chiens très attachants 🤗

About the host

Host profile image
I am a Danish expatriate, and I have lived in Madeira for more that 50 years. I have, since my arrival here, been occupied with tourism, and I still am.. I do speak several foreign languages, besides the Scandinavian languages, as for example English, some German, a little French and, of course, Portuguese. My own house lies just behind Casa Sisse, so I am quite easy to 'get hold of', in case needed, and I shall be quite happy to help you with suggestions and advise.
