• PRIVILEGED LOCATION
This lovely apartment is part of the Winepress Apartments of Quinta Mãe dos Homens Garden Village, a very charming self-catering holiday resort within the grounds of a historical Madeiran property, belonging to the heirs of the Viscount of Cacongo.
Beautifully located on a hillside overlooking the Funchal bay, and with superb views across the town to the harbour and the sea, this family-run unit is surrounded by stunning gardens, with beautiful exotic flowers and trees from Madeira's flora, as well as some cultivated land with homegrown vegetables and tropical fruit trees.
• SPACIOUS APARTMENT
The Boal Apartment has a spacious sitting room/ dining area with a full open plan kitchen, a separate twin-bedded bedroom, a separate bathroom, as well as a lovely terrace overlooking the inviting gardens of the property and the sea. Accommodates up to 3 people with the use of sofa-bed. We can also add a cot and a high-chair if needed.
• LOVELY AMENITIES & STAFF SUPPORT
One of the best things about staying with us at the Quinta is that you can enjoy all the property amenities, from our wonderful swimming pool and garden areas, to private parking and a clubhouse with a communal terrace with WiFi coverage, where you can work or simply relax and meet with other guests.
The Quinta also provides you with weekly cleaning service with change of towels and linen, free of charge, and laundry service upon request with a minimal charge.
Our reception is open during working hours, where our friendly staff can assist you with any requests and even, for your convenience, book a great diversity of transport, touristic and entertainment services.
• CONVENIENT SERVICES NEARBY
Located in a quiet residential area of Funchal, you have two minimarkets nearby and up the hill a variety of convenient shops all within a 5 min walk. The Quinta is also only a 10 min walk down the hill to the east side of the old town, where you have a great variety of local bars, restaurants, and shops, as well as a shopping centre and the traditional farmers’ market. The airport is a 15-20 minute ride away.
• HOW TO MOVE AROUND
There is a bus stop right next to the Quinta, where you can catch a bus to the city centre, and for departures and arrivals from the airport, there is an Aerobus stop up the hill (5 min walk). You may as well ask us to book a transfer with our local partners, as it is cheaper than the taxis you find at the airport, or rent a car, bike or bicycle to explore the city and the island.
• PROPERTY RULES

- The pool is unattended and may be used from 9 am to 9 pm.

Quinta Mãe dos Homens Garden Village is a small family run business and I, the daughter of the owner – Mrs Teresa Gedge – have been managing this self-catering resort, located inside the grounds of our family home since 1998, happily receiving visitors from all over the world. Our Quinta is known for its stunning views and gardens with exotic flowers and tropical fruit trees, that provide a lovely refuge to rest, work and live with privacy and serenity. As it is located on a hillside it is far away enough from Funchal’s hustle and bustle yet close enough to the historical centre (only a 10 minute walk down the hill) for you to make the most of your stay and explore the unique history and beauty of our city and island. Also, for great delight of our guests, in 1992 we gave away part of our agricultural fields to build a beautiful swimming pool, as well a clubhouse and communal terrace with wifi coverage, where you can work, rest and meet with other guests. Part of our family lives in the main house and over the years we have had many repeated guests who fell in love with the Quinta and became true friends. It is our hope that as so many others, you will enjoy your stay, not just for the natural beauty but also for the rich history of our home, as well as all the friendly faces you will meet here. We are happy to open our doors to all those who are looking for a quiet home-like accommodation and we will do our best to make you feel at home and to meet all your personal needs and requests. Hope to see you soon! 😊 Sincerely, Marina Huber

Every time you rent through Flatio, you're automatically covered by our StayProtection package.
By booking this property under 180 days, you'll also enjoy extended protection in the form of Stay Benefits - a unique offering backed by AXA! Here's what such packaging includes:
*Please note that these extraordinary Stay Benefits do not extend to bookings exceeding 180 days. For these longer-term stays, this host requires deposit-based coverage instead.
Once you send a booking request, the host is notified that you are interested in their listing. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your booking.
Hosts are mainly interested in the profile of their guest. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your booking will more likely get approved.
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every listing. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the hosts on Flatio.
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the host and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
In the event that you move in and the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio, let us know as soon as possible!
If the conditions for the withdrawal are met and the host can't fix the issue immediately, you have the option to withdraw from the lease agreement with a full refund. We'll also actively help you find an alternative accommodation and remain by your side until everything is fully resolved.
You can read the conditions and all details about our Move-in Guarantee in this article of our Help Center.
How you can cancel a booking varies depending on what stage the booking is in.
Is your booking request still waiting for host approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your booking request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the booking before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the host accepts your booking, the property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved booking and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your booking, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).

Neighborhood
Its a bit out of the centre but still within easy reach. buses are regular, bolt taxis are cheap. Theres a lovely grocery store down the road to get food, wine etc in. Not many restaurants around, you will need to go into town really or order something into the Quinta :)

We travel a lot, but Quinta Mãe dos Homens was one of the best accomodation we have ever been to. An oasis of peace just up the hill from Funchal center. The apartment was cozy and had everything we needed, especially a strong wifi signal. ;) We loved having our meals in the balcony, looking over the garden. The common area of the patio and the pool are perfect to read a book, have a swim and overall relax. You can work there too. We just loved everything about this place and Marina, the property owner, was very kind and welcoming. 10/10.
Neighborhood
It's a bit up the hill but 2 supermarkets within a few minute walk. Easy to go down to Funchal center (3 min walking). To come up either a nice exercise or a cheap Bolt ride. Overall it's a quiet environment.
