Het appartement op zich was basic maar in orde. De gerant Bruno was bij aankomst heel enthousiast en behulpzaam om alle restaurants en bezienswaardigheden in de buurt door te geven en zei dat we hem op elk moment mochten contacteren voor wat dan ook. Echter toen we hem 's morgens op dag twee lieten weten dat de afloop van de douche ernstig verstopt zat hebben we van hem gedurende de hele vakantieperiode niks meer gehoord. Dus dat is wel een heel negatief puntje.
Super accueil de Bruno qui a éte au petit soin pour nous.
L appartement est situé proche du centre dans les hauteurs, au calme avec vue sur la mer.
Pour plus de confort il faut louer une voiture. Cela petmet de sillonner cette ile magnifique.
Very clean !!!! host was amazing with us gave us lots of info for places to go and places to eat !!! Safe area, underground parking I would totally recommend this place and would totally go back
The property was every thing and more. Wish we could have stayed longer ( next visit). Bruno went above and beyond to take care of us. The entire visit was special.
Alles heel netjes. Goede te lopen naar het centrum. Zeer aardige verhuurder. Alles voor elkaar. Goede tips gekregen om te doen. Een super vakantie gehad op een paradijselijk eiland.
Bruno is an excellent host. He met us at the property and gave a very thorough description of all the amenities and features of the apartment. The property is very clean. It is in a quiet residential neighborhood. There is good bus service and the stop is literally next door. Bruno is very knowledgeable about local attractions and very quick to respond to any requests for information. There is onsite parking, if you rent a car, but don't rent a large car. The view is fabulous.

The apartment is well-equipped and well-located and the owner, Bruno is extremly helpful and communicative. I would very much recommend this apartment for your stay!
First time I have been to Madeira and it is delightful. Weather was a bit mixed at first but then sunny and warm with no rain.The apartment is nice with a beautiful view, the only downside for us elderly folk was the hills in Funchal and the rest of the island.. I would recommend the apartment
Onze gastheer liet uitgebreid ons appartement zien en wat een mooie plek en een fantastisch uitzicht. Mooi balkon om te gebruiken een verdieping lager.
De huurauto kon op een eigen garage plek staan. Er lagen infoboekjes in huis en de inrichting was heel compleet.
We zouden dit zeker aanraden en zelf hier ook met plezier nog een keer verblijven.
Property owner, Bruno, is very gracious and accommodating. The apartment is very comfortable. Other residents in the buildingwere very quiet. We’re happy to have easy parking right on the property. Very close to large supermarket. And even a Takeaway restaurant. No air-conditioning or central system but our weather over all 6 days was comfortable and didn’t need AC. But with the windows open, we did deal with mosquitoes because the weather has been hot and rainy right before our visit. There was one plug in insect repellent which works quite well. the breezes is passing through the house are fantastic. If we return, we would definitely rent Bruno’s apartment again.
The apartment is situated on the outskirts of funchal about a 20 minute downhill walk. The walk up is not recommended in the heat but once we sussed the vagaries of the bus network it was not an issue. Bruno was very helpful and even sent some recommendations of restaurants etc on whatsapp before we arrived. He arranged a taxi from the airport and met us at the apartment. Although we didn't need to contact him while we were there he made it clear he'd be available if needed. He even let us stay in the apartment on the day we were leaving as our flight was quite late so we didn't have to worry about checking out or leaving our suitcase anywhere. It was very hot while we were there and the apartment is not air conditioned. Bruno may want to think about buying a fan for the apartment but i would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment and would stay here again.
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans l'appartement de Bruno.
L'appartement est très propre, le linge de maison est fourni et propre. Bien qu'il ne soit pas dans le centre ville (nous le savions avant de réserver), l'appartement est très bien situé, près de la sortie de la voie rapide et à quelques minutes d'un supermarché. Attention la place de parking est étroite mais nous nous sommes garés également à l'extérieur sans souci (stationnement gratuit à proximité et dans la résidence).
Bruno a été très réactif à toutes nos demandes, nous a conseillé sur des sorties et activités à faire. Bref, ce fut parfait, nous recommandons cet appartement :-)
Merci beaucoup à Bruno ainsi qu'à sa belle soeur et son frère qui sont venus pour le check in.
Logement très propre et très bien équipé situé dans une résidence calme et sécurisée avec une belle vue sur la mer. Le garage pour la voiture est vraiment appréciable avec un accès aux étages par l'ascenseur.
Proche d'une grande surface, très pratique pour faire les courses...
L'accès à la voie rapide pour les excursions est très facile et très proche ainsi que pour se rendre au centre ville de Funchal.
Propriétaire très sympathique, disponible, de bons conseils et bien veillant.
Le logement est facile d'accès en voiture tant depuis le centre ville que depuis la voie rapide et permet donc de rayonner facilement sur tout Madère. le garage dans le parking sous l'immeuble avec accès direct par ascenseur à l'appartement est bien pratique. Même si au loin belle vue sur la mer.
Bruno was a great host, accommodating our very late arrival. The apartment has a great view, and the area is quiet and safe. It’s about a 25 min walk to the downtown. The kitchen is set up for basic cooking. The parking is secure - however it can be very tricky to get into the parking spot if you have a larger vehicle when others are parked there. Overall we’d recommend this place.
Exactly as described. Located above the city with good views. Apartment was clean and pleasant. Perfect first stop on our adventure around the island. Friendly accommodating hosts Fatima and Bruno, who greeted us when we arrived. Thank you for the extra welcoming gifts as we were celebrating our 53rd wedding anniversary. Perfect five star rating from both of us. Thanks again for helping us out along the way. Warm regards, Phil and Jeanne
A lovely apartment, very clean, well furnished and equipped. The living room has a big comfortable sofa and a great view to the harbour in the distance. As a bonus there is access to a large terrace with views to the sea and mountains and with the collapsible chairs provided we could relax in the sun with a glass of wine. Bruno is a most excellent host and was very helpful in arranging a taxi transfer from the airport with the advantage that the driver knew the apartment and called Bruno on our arrival so he was at the gate to the apartment to greet us. Bruno explained how everything worked and provided a most warm welcome. We found it easy to contact Bruno via WhatsApp before arriving and during our stay.
We walked into town and occasionally enjoyed a coffee or orange juice at the café in the garden of the Museu da Quinta das Cruzes about half way down. The museum’s garden is very pleasant and has good views. We usually took a bus back using Google maps Go feature to show us the route, the nearest bus stop, the bus number and scheduled time. Being able to track our position along the bus route made it easy to know when to press the stop button and navigate back to the apartment.
We had good lunches/meals at Restaurante dos Combatentes (corner of municipal gardens), Barreirinha Bar Café (good sea view, east of yellow fort), Museu da Quinta das Cruzes café, Restaurante Brasa (in a peaceful square) and others!
