About this property

This penthouse apartment (170 m2) is situated in Funchal (Reg. Nr. 24787/AL) at Formosa beach, with an amazing view to the Atlantic Ocean and direct access to the beach (there is no road between the complex and the beach: the complex is over the beach).

To take full advantage of the mild climate of Madeira island, you can enjoy the sun and the sea view relaxing at the sun chairs at the apartment double sized porch and private rooftop terrace or choose to take a swim in the swimming pool or in the sea. And if you would like walking, you will love walking in the new walking path along the sea (possible to walk from Lido to Câmara de Lobos fisherman village now!). With the advantage of having everything you need at a walking distance, you have also nearby coffee shops and a local fish restaurants just a few minutes walking.

The apartment is located on the 8th floor (2 lifts are available) in a quit 4 stars complex (Atlantic Gardens, side by side with Pestana Bay Hotel), right on the beach (Formosa Beach) in west Funchal, with no noisy roadway between you and the beach, with spectacular views, swimming pool, direct access to the beach and to the ocean walking path.

Spectacular ocean views can be seen from the apartment terrace, living room and even from the master bedroom.

Simply Stunning

We recently had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful penthouse apartment, each room was spacious with an airy layout.Every room was immaculately clean and stocked with thoughtful amenities that made us feel at home.The true highlight of this apartment was the expansive roof terrace and balcony with panoramic views that were simply stunning and we loved the sound of the waves. We also made use of the pool, although it was quite cool in December, it was refreshing!We found it a great area to stay, with plenty of bars and restaurants in the vicinity without the need to go into Funchal centre every day. Madeira is generally very hilly and to walk to the top of the main road, you have to climb a lot of steps, or walk along the road which is a longer way round, but not as steep! When we did walk into Funchal, there was a lovely coastal path walk that we took and we were pleased that the tunnel was open that cuts through the cliffs.Unfortunately the coastal path walking the opposite direction to Câmara de Lobos was closed when we were there, but we got a taxi there and bus back. We found Bolt were a lot cheaper for taxi’s and we believe Uber has just started up there.Nyara was a great host and was quick to answer and resolve any small issues we had. We will definitely be back!

Family October break

We loved the location of the apartment being right on the sea front and with access to a pool too. The balconies were also a great space and south facing but with awnings for shade. The walkway up to the main town has just been destroyed by weather so it was a longer walk to the main centre but there are good restaurants close by. We had a car and it was a good base for exploring. We'd come again

AMAZING VIEW

The description of the apartment was accurate. The layout was perfect and the master bedroom had an amazing view. At night we kept the balcony door open a bit and you could hear the ocean waves - what an experience! The apartment was clean and had all the emenities you need. Location was perfect for us. Niara - was a perfect host meeting us at the condo with tips and advice. We emailed her through out the week asking for advice on restaurants,. Highly recommend the Jeep tour, Miguel our driver was great. Loved his sense of humour!! Highly recommend this apartment while in Madeira! .

Wonderful vacation!

Clean, spacious apartment! Comfortable balcony, and lovely outdoor roof terrace. Ocean splashing right under the window! There are not many people on the beach. Also on the territory of the apart hotel, there is a swimming pool with sunbeds, but we did not use it. It is much more pleasant to relax on the terrace and swim in the ocean. Funchal city centre is a 5-minute drive away. A wonderful holiday away from the hustle and bustle! Every evening we enjoyed a beautiful sunset view! Many thanks to the owner of Niara! We will try to come back again!!!

Great spot from which to enjoy Madeira

How can you beat a penthouse apartment right on the beach with unrestricted views of the ocean and coast line. Walking here is a little difficult and requires motor transportation, either a public service like bolt or a bus or a rented car, but then if you are in good shape, you can climb a few stories along steps to the main road, or you can walk along the beach heading toward Funchal, pass through a tunnel and reach the Lido. The apartment is clean and comfortable. The building is a little old and in need of some updating, but in no way detracted from the stay. There are many local restaurants along the beach which make for lovely sunset walks and dining and drinking options. The only complaint that we had is that there is no central or unit air conditioning in the apartment, and despite being on the beach, there is not a lot of air flow into the apartment, so nights were hot and sticky. There is a portable unit that has an exhaust pipe that must be rigged to an exterior window and was able to cool one of the small bedrooms, but it could not be used for the master bedroom or any of the rest of the apartment. So my wife slept in that little room and this allowed me to wake up in the middle of the night and step out on to the balcony and watch the moon over the sea. Nyara, the hostess, was helpful and responsive and accomodating.

The Penthouse

My husband and I have recently returned from three wonderful weeks in Madeira - two of which were spent staying in the beautiful "Atlantic Gardens" Apartments. - on Formosa beach. This really is a "Waterfront Location." I don't think that either one of us was prepared for quite such a delightful place in this idilic location. The views from the spacious "Penthouse" balcony which look directly out to sea are truly magnificent. We booked our holiday through "Owners Direct" and were introduced through e mail to a delightful young couple Niara and Miguel Figueir who own and rent out this lovely apartment and who, in addition to being quite charming were "efficiency personified". Nothing was too much trouble for Niara - each and every question asked being answered both quickly and professionally. She was tireless in her efforts to please, and to ensure that our holiday there was "trouble free". (which it was!) During our stay, a huge bonus for us was discovering that her husband Miguel is a driver in the local Jeep company "Jeep Tour Classic UMM" so we were fortunate to book an "off road" tour with him and discover even more of the delights and hidden gems of this beautiful island. Miguel is an excellent driver who is passionate about his homeland and went to endless trouble to teach us (with his excellent English) the maximum possible during our tour with him. If this is all painting the correct picture as you read it - and the fact that we have already rebooked for next year, should in itself be recommendation enough !!!!

La terrasse - bronzarium - au dernier étage et le balcon sont des pièces à part entière où il fait bon vivre.

Meeresrauschen im Ohr....

Wir, 3 Freundinnen, haben alles so vorgefunden, wie beschrieben. Vor allem der große Balkon macht unbeschreibliches Urlaubsfeeling. Nyara ist eine sehr freundliche und zugewandte Gastgeberin. Sie war immer erreichbar und beantwortete alle Fragen sehr schnell. Im Vorfeld gab sie schon viele hilfreiche Tipps und Informationen. Als schwierig empfanden wir das Einkaufen ohne Mietwagen. Der Weg zum Bäcker und kleinen Lebensmittelladen ist schwierig, über viele Treppen muss viel Höhe überwunden werden...wir nahmen öfters ein Taxi, um unsere Einkäufe zu transportieren. Sehr schön kann man einen Einkauf mit einem gemütlichen Bummel durch Camara de Lobos verbinden...und dem ein oder anderen Gläschen Poncha. Direkt neben dem Supermarkt stehen Taxis. Der schöne Weg am Meer entlang dauert ca. 40 Minuten. Im Vorfeld waren uns die unterschiedlichen Standards der Schlafzimmer nicht bewusst. Vor allem das 3. Zimmer ist ziemlich klein. Eine Jeeptour mit Miguel, Nyaras Mann, gab uns wunderbare Einblicke in die grandiose Landschaft Madeiras. Es gibt zahlreiche Anbieter für Levada Wanderungen und Inseltouren mit dem Kleinbus. Nyara, vielen Dank für Deine Unterstützung.

Das App-entspricht den Fotos uns ist mit allem Notwendingen ausgestattet. Mit dem Flughafenbus - hält direkt vor der Anlage - ist man bequem für 5 EUR in der Stadt.

Sicherer Urlaub in bewegten Zeiten in einer zauberhaften Ferienwohnung mit traumhaftem Ausblick

Noch vor wenigen Wochen wussten wir nicht, ob wir unseren Urlaub auf Madeira auch wirklich antreten können. Schon in dieser Zeit war der Kontakt zur Vermieterin, Nyara, herausragend. Nyara hat uns eine verlängerte Stornofrist eingeräumt und uns damit viel Druck genommen. Auch die regelmäßigen Updates zur Entwicklung der Situation auf Madeira waren vorbildlich. Nachdem zum 01.07. die Restriktionen aufgehoben wurden, konnten wir dann wie geplant am 04.07. unsere Reise antreten. Da wir bereits im Vorfeld den Corona-Test am Flughafen Frankfurt/M. durchgeführt und die negativen Befunde auf der Website "Madeira-Safe" hochgeladen hatten, saßen wir auch schon kurze Zeit nach unserer Ankunft in dem Taxi, das Nyara für uns besorgt hatte. Nach ca. 20 Minuten Fahrt kamen wir dann in unserem Ferien-Domizil an. Die Wohnung ist einfach traumhaft schön. Sie ist sauber, sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Balkon und die Dachterrasse sind natürlich das Highlight schlechthin Der Atlantik "lag uns zu Füßen" - Herrlich. Das Meeresrauschen und die "rollenden Steine" begleiteten uns dann auch die 14 Tage unseres Urlaubs. Die meiste Zeit haben wir auf dem geräumigen Balkon verbracht (Essen, relaxen im Schatten, Kartenspiele...) Die Dachterrasse mehr zum Sonnen und Wäschetrocknen. Für das Frühstück gibt es 2-3 Möglichkeiten Brötchen, Croissants etc. zu besorgen. Über die Espresso-Maschine (mit Kapseln) in der Küche habe ich mich sehr gefreut :-). Fußläufig befindet sich auch einen größerer Supermarkt (ca. 15-20 Min). und einige Restaurants, in denen man gut essen kann. Direkt vor der Tür liegt der Strand - größtenteils mit großen Kieselsteinen - wandert man einige hundert Meter nach rechts gibt es auch Abschnitte mit (schwarzem) Sand. Auch wenn wir wegen "Corona" nur per WhatsApp miteinander kommunizieren konnten, war zu spüren mit wie viel Leidenschaft Nyara von den zahlreichen Möglichkeiten dieser herrlichen Insel zur berichten wusste. Sie ist eine hervorragende Gastgeberin :-) Wir hatten uns für 10 Tage einen Mietwagen geliehen und Madeira auf "eigene Faust" erkundet. Es ist einfach das perfekte Reiseziel in diesen Zeiten. Wir verbrachten sehr viel Zeit in der freien Natur - auf den herrlichen Wanderwegen, den tollen Aussichtspunkten und den schönen Gärten. Der Tourismus läuft erst langsam wieder an. Wir haben uns die ganze Zeit sehr sicher und wohl gefühlt. Das Einhalten der Hygieneregeln in den Geschäften und in der Gastronomie ist vorbildlich. "Madeira is safe!"

Excellent accommodation and location.

Thanks Nyara for a wonderful stay. The accommodation had all the conveniences you could need. The large balcony provides an excellent opportunity for relaxing and sunbathing. It is located within walking distance of supermarkets and a pleasant 30 minute walk to the town centre. Nyara answered any query we had promptly and we sensed her keenness to assist wherever she could. Overall we had a lovely time and although we like to visit different locations when we travel we already plan to return to Madeira and if available this same accommodation.

We all had a great time in Madeira, and Nyara gave us a great welcome. The apartment is in a lovely location right next to the beach, and has a roof terrace which is private to the appartment. There are plenty of restaurants close by. Miquels off road jeep safari is a must.
