Jessica is a fantastic host and very attentive with great communication throughout our stay. The apartment is in an amazing location just 5 mins walk from the centre of funchal! Very clean and tidy with great amenities, we loved spending time on the balcony where you could see the sea and the mountains! Overall fantastic stay, would definitely come back :)

Great stay, with amazing views and amazing host!

The apartment is very well located, close to the center of Funchal but in a quiet area. It has a balcony with a view of Funchal’s harbor.
Both the apartment and the building were very clean and well organized.
The apartment is very well equipped, with everything needed for a long stay — things like a coffee maker, orange juicer, toaster, and plenty of dishes.
It also has a parking space in the garage, which is great since it’s quite difficult to park on the street. The only small downside is that the entrance to the parking area is a bit narrow.
The host is very friendly and attentive.
It was a great stay!

I stayed here for a month in August, and it was truly a wonderful experience!

The apartment looks exactly like in the pictures, and the building itself is modern and clean with two elevators as well as stairs. The apartment is very well equipped – you’ll find everything you need for cooking (pots and pans in different sizes, toaster, mixer, strainer, etc.), and also for laundry (washing machine and drying rack).

The location is amazing: the city center is just a 10-minute walk away, and there are bus stops nearby (for example on Rua 31 de Janeiro). Right next to the apartment (just 1 minute away) is the beautiful Jardim de Santa Luzia, perfect for a relaxing moment after a long day. My personal favorite, Jardim Municipal do Funchal, is also just a few minutes walk away. Another huge advantage is the garage right under the apartment, included in the price.

The neighbors are very quiet – I didn’t hear a single noise during the whole month! If you leave the window open at dawn you may hear birds, but that’s just part of the charm of Madeira. The balcony is also bigger than it looks in the photos and separated from the neighbors’, which made it feel private and comfortable.

Jessica, the host, is incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. She responds quickly and shared excellent recommendations for restaurants and places to visit (I tried several and really enjoyed them!). When my arrival was delayed due to weather conditions and my flight was rescheduled, she immediately adjusted and came to hand over the keys when I arrived. The same happened when my departure flight was delayed – she kindly allowed me to stay until 5 PM.

Overall, I felt very safe and comfortable here (as a woman traveling solo), and I would definitely stay again! :)

Neighborhood
The neighborhood feels very comfortable and safe to live in. There’s a small grocery store just a 7-minute walk away, but for bigger shopping you’ll find a Pingo Doce supermarket at Plaza Madeira (10–12 minutes walking), and an even larger Continente supermarket about a 4-minute drive away.

I can highly recommend the restaurant Cai D'Queixo (4 minutes walking – delicious food and cozy atmosphere) and Rei da Poncha (12 minutes walking – for truly amazing poncha and sandwiches).

The flat is cozy and well equipped - perfect for a comfortable stay! The hosts are incredibly welcoming and helpful, always quick to respond and help. Highly recommend and glad to return!

calm and peaceful area

Everything was great. Nice apartment, well equipped, no issues. Jessica and her husband are very cooperative and it's a pleasure to communicate with them.

Neighborhood
It's almost the center of Funchal, so everything is available there. Although, if you want to go to big supermarkets on foot you need to go down and back uphill a bit, so might be not that easy.

Beautiful apartment, fast internet with a very friendly and helpful owner. If anything is wrong or you need some tips, Jessica is always available to help you out! 10/10 would Recommend.

Neighborhood
Quiet and friendly but still nearby the city center.

Jessica is a fantastic host. Very friendly and helpful. She regularly checked in with me to see if everything was okay.
The apartment is great! Spacious, very clean, with plenty of natural light, excellent internet, and everything you need for a longer stay.

Neighborhood
The neighborhood is safe, and it’s about a 15-20 minute walk to the center. It’s quiet at night. The only thing to note is that there’s a school playground nearby, so if you open the balcony, you may occasionally hear children playing and yelling, but it’s not a big issue.

15-minute walk to a bigger grocery store and approximately 6-8 minutes to a smaller one.

The apartment is in good location, well equipped, has everything for a long stay and has impressive ocean view.
Jessica is amazing host, always ready to help, thank you!

Thanks to Jessica for her hospitality! The most equipped and comfortable apartment during our travels. Ideal for people coming on holiday to Madeira. The hostess was very friendly and helped with any questions.

We lived here for two months and could not have hoped for a better place! The view is incredibly and the terrace has space enough to enjoy every meal outside and even sunbathe. The rest of the place is just lovely as well. It's about a kilometer from the city centre and the beach and getting down there is very quick as it's down hill. Coming back up is a bit of a different story though but you'll get used to the climb! Jessica was a great host and helped us quickly with everything we asked for. If you're considering a longer stay in Funchal this is the place you've been looking for!

Nice apartment, well located.
The owner is kind and helpful.

Jessica went above and beyond what a landlord typically would do. She responded to all my questions immediately and was helpful beyond words. She was simply amazing!

Jessica is a wonderful person. She takes hosting to highest level. Was waiting for us at 1:00AM in the night and was responding to any demand we had in less than 6 hours. Apartment is great, has a see view from balcony that will fill your moments, when you enjoy a coffee or even take a meeting. Great conditions for work, very good internet speed and comfortable office area.
We stayed almost 1 Month with small kids and we felt like home! Thank you Jessica! Thank you Madeira...we will return!
