Experienced host
An absolutely amazing apartment combining the best Madeira has to offer.
This apartment is in a calm and quiet neighbourhood, allowing you to sleep peacefully, which is not always the easiest thing to find on this island. Yet it does not come at a cost since you both have everything at a walking distance, including two large supermarkets in Cancela, and a few smaller ones directly within a few minutes walk. You also have a great bakery near (Flor do Garajau).
Are you afraid of not being connected to Funchal? Well don't be, because you have a bus stop 2 minutes away from the apartment where you can take the line 155 (and a few others) bus to Funchal which takes only about 20 minutes to arrive to Anadia shopling or teleférico in Funchal. For those on a budget, the fare is only 2.60 euros. Staying in many places in Funchal brings noise that makes it difficult to sleep, but here you both get to sleep and stay connected with Funchal.
Other than that the apartment itself is wonderful and the neighbours are extremely nice, polite and quiet. The apartment is a true living apartment, you have everything you need, from a panini press over to a vacuum cleaner. If someone told me that I had to move into the apartment tomorrow forever and couldn't buy any new appliances or cookware, I would be perfectly fine with that. It is also incredibly spacious, and has a wonderful view from the balcony where you can enjoy the sun and the ocean.
This is far from my first time in Madeira. In fact this is my 5th time and I think my 7th accomodation and by far my favorite. As stated before, it just has a mix of quiet and being near everything that's difficult to find on Madeira and is often listed cheaper than other apartments on Flatio, even though it is more spacious and in a better location.
Really, on a subjective take, if you still don't know how to navigate this island, I highly recommend this apartment, it is the perfect launching pad and I really cannot find a fault with it
Host:
Rúben is an absolute sweetheart and someone who makes you feel more like a friend than just a guest. Communication is extremely fast and everything gets solved immediately.
Even in this area this apartment is unique as in a way the interactions you have with Rúben quickly start to feel very natural and less like a businesses transaction and more like just two friends talking.
Summary:
I highly recommend both the apartment and the host. Take it from someone who has booked many places in Madeira, you will not regret booking this one. Both the host and the apartment are amazing and I will be honest in saying that after a while the apartment started feeling like my own home.
A calm quiet neighbourhood that has everything you need over from shops to restaurants and bakeries.
It is neear bus stops which can take you to Funchal in about 20 minutes for just 2.60 euros.
- Cristo Rei do Guarajau: has a stunning view of Funchal and is often quiet enough to take some time for yourself to ponder life. The beach beneath is amazing as well.
- Flor do Guarajau: a great bakery with great prices
- Banamadeira: one of the smaller supermarket chains in Madeira that always have a great produce section. Perfect for thise who love fruit or cooking.
