All eyes will be on the Atlantic views from this stylishly designed apartment. Set in peaceful Rua Velha da Ajuda, just a few minutes from Praia Formosa, this home invites you to pack your seaside essentials and hit the beach for a sun-soaked day of tanning and swimming in the ocean. 

Sitting in a gated community, with everything angled towards the sea, you'll have a furnished terrace to sit and enjoy your morning coffee and early-afternoon cocktails. And to get the best out of the balcony, all-glass patio doors slide open to invite the warm weather and natural sunlight into the calm living area. Bright and modern, with a huge modular sofa, colourful artwork and stylish lighting, it's a great place to unwind. There's even a dedicated desk space for those working from home during their stay. 

When you're not taking in the plush atmosphere of your apartment, head down to the communal patio and terrace area where a pool and lounge chairs await. Alternatively, make a beeline for the shared tennis courts for a set in the sun. It's just a short walk from Funchal's city centre and bustling promenade, with traditional restaurants, cosy bars, pastry shops and designer boutiques lining the cobbled streets.

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).

Nice to haves

Perched on the edge of Madeira’s south coast, this charming home has got ‘summer’ written all over it, boasting light-drenched interiors and a lush, tree-lined garden with views towards the Atlantic. There might not be a ton of showstopping amenities at this home, but that doesn’t mean we can’t see ourselves spending all day relaxing here, book in one hand and glass of wine in the other as one of our fellow guests rustles up a Portuguese-inspired feast in the kitchen. We can almost taste the seafood now…

If you fancy a change of scenery, though, you’re within easy reach of Praia Formosa, known for its black pebbles and sand. Settle in for a day of sunbathing or slip into your swimming trunks and go for a refreshing dip in the glistening water followed by a small plate or two at one of the local restaurants. Then, when you’ve had your daily dose of being out and about, head back home and watch the sun set from your private balcony. We can’t think of a better way to end the day.

Charming Madeiran Hideaway

Pod Coffee Machine

Step onto the balcony and you'll see why we adore this Funchal pad. The views are breathtaking – not only can you see the sparkling waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the jagged edge of Cabo Girão in the distance, but you'll also have a birds-eye view of the communal pool. Day or night, it's a delightful place to sip coffee or cocktails and rest your feet, breathing in the fresh sea air and watching as the sun dips below the horizon. Inside is just as peaceful as the breezy layout and light-filled living space show off the scenery. Everything is glossy and modern, especially the sleek kitchen, which comes fully equipped to make self-catering easy. We love the quirky palm wallpaper behind the dining table, and the plush sofa is just what you need after a busy day. Speaking of, spend afternoons relaxing by the pool or grab a towel and hit the beach – Praia Formosa's pebbly shore is a thirteen-minute walk away. If you're in the mood to do a bit of shopping, Forum Madeira is a twenty-minutes on foot, while the Promenade do Lido is excellent for evening strolls along the water. There are many world-class restaurants, bars, and cafes nearby, but you can always head into Funchal city centre for more options – it's just a seven-minute drive.

Where The Sky Meets The Sea

Looking for a smart, fuss-free bolthole in the heart of bustling Funchal? We've got you covered. This stylish studio apartment housed in the city's former fine arts school ticks all the boxes.

Carefully reimagined for modern-day living, the architects have carefully preserved the old (would you look at that chequered marble entrance and sweeping staircase) while embracing the new with slick marble-clad bathrooms and designer kitchens. And though this may be studio living, everywhere feels uplifting and inviting thanks to those dual aspect windows bathing the apartment in natural daylight and lofty ceilings opening up the space. 

Ready to soak up the local culture and meet the locals? Then you've come to the right place. All the must-sees are within walking distance from here. Get off to a flying start at the see-and-be-seen, newly renovated lido on the seafront. And when thoughts turn to food (and perhaps a glass of something crisp?), you're in foodie heaven here. Dive into the stellar eating and drinking destinations on your doorstep or blaze a trail to the famous farmer's market, Mercado dos Lavradores, just a hop, skip and a jump away.

Sleek and elegant, this Funchal apartment is an ideal base for a small family or two couples on a Madeira stay. We love the private balcony with sea views – just the spot to start the day, coffee and pastel de nata in hand. Suitably nourished, you’ll find plenty to occupy your time in the local area. With shops, cafes, restaurants and bars a stone’s throw away, authentic Portuguese food is always on the menu. Fancy cooling off in the heat? Formosa Beach and the Lido promenade and pools are within easy reach. 

Madeira Sunrise

This building was once a school of fine art in the heart of Funchal. It blends right in with the orange-roofed buildings of the historic centre and sits on a pretty, cobbled street. You can reach all the major sights and attractions of Madeira’s capital – dolphin and whale-watching tours, the gondola up into the hills and the restaurants, cafes and markets of the charming old streets. 

We love the entrance hallway to the apartment’s building – a perfect introduction to Funchal’s architecture – with its faded tile floor and arched marble doorframes. Stepping into the apartment, a palette of stone, slate and cotton keeps things feeling calmingly natural. The full kitchen is tucked behind the living area and has everything you need to turn the fresh produce of the nearby farmer’s market into salads, seafood feasts and stews. There’s enough room for the group to dine at the ink-black table, which can double as a desk if you need to work remotely.
