With just a five-minute walk into the heart of Funchal, this modern apartment has a fantastic location. It's located in one of the city's most prestigious areas, close to supermarkets, pharmacies, shops, bars, theatres and the Casino of Madeira. Adjacent to the casino, you'll find the pretty Santa Catarina Park, with its amazing views of the bay of Funchal. Other attractions, such as the cathedral and marina, are within a ten-minute stroll, too, while the aerobus bus stop for the airport is also within a five-minute saunter.

Back at this apartment, go for a dip in the communal pool to cool off or relax on your private balcony. We adore the vistas over Funchal, the ocean, and the São João Baptista do Pico Fortress – enjoy them from here or indoors with a glass of Madeira. Lots of botanical prints and vases of flowers give this place a home-from-home feel. This place is perfect for a group of friends or a family (we mustn't forget to mention, there's a shared children's playground on the development).
