We loved the neighborhood, the view is incredible, the walk down to the city center is easy, and we felt right at home. Highly recommend staying here if you’re in Funchal! ##### Nick A.

From the hospitality of John & Vanessa (our flight was delayed and John stayed at the villa till 3am to greet us and give us a warm welcome) to the house itself - everything was absolutely perfect. Clean, modern, perfect layout and breathtaking views. ##### Syeed M. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joss S.

Comfortable and the views are simply stunning. The walk to and from the centre is not for the feint hearted, or unfit, but meant we felt less guilty about all the wonderful food and wine we consumed. Vanessa looked after as very well and she is a real asset. We hope to return!! ##### Joss S. Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kai E.

Die Aussicht über Funchal ist noch spektakulärer als auf den Bildern, und der Zapfhahn wurde ausgiebig genutzt. Übergabe der Wohnung war ebenfalls sehr gut, wir haben viele spannende Tips bekommen was wir alles in der Umgebung anschauen sollten. Vom Inhaber selbst gab es ebenfalls viele wertvolle Tips. Ein weiteres Fass Bier wurde schnellstmöglich organisiert. Als wir ein Problem mit dem Pool hatten, wurde dieses von ihm aus seinem Urlaub schnell gelöst. Dafür auch auf diesem Wege nochmals ein herzliches Dankeschön. tl;dr: Das Haus ist absolut zu empfehlen und hält alles was die Bilder versprechen. ##### Kai E.

The views are stunning and the pool refreshing. The house has everything you need both indoors and out. The walk into town is down VERY steep roads, some with no pavements, which can be a bit unnerving, but we always took a taxi back (around 5 euros). John is very responsive and Maria did a good check in for us. We miss it already ##### Jill S. Stayed 19 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### blandine p.

This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah W. Feb 19, 2017 #### Spectacular A fabulous apartment situated in the attractive suburb of Rochinha overlooking the port and centre of Funchal. Spacious and well-appointed with full-length southwest facing windows on both floors; an attractive deck surrounding a heated infinity pool and plenty of space for six - if not more. Watch the cruise liners arrive from your bed and celebrate the setting of the evening sun over the distant hills. One double bedroom has its own en-suite; the other and the twin room share another bathroom. The ground floor has a kitchen diner, plus a vast lounge with dining area. Below is a huge garage. the pool is heated. Rua da Boa Vista is a (VERY steep) hill and a 15 minute walk down to the centre, the market and many, many cafés, bars and restaurants. Forget about walking back - taxis (Funchal probably has more taxis per square meter than anywhere else in the west) cost between €5 and €7, and everyone speaks English. There's also a (no. 32) bus every half-hour or so. The local shops - five minutes away - offer basic provisions but anything else will require a visit to the well-stocked supermarkets in the town centre. A taxi can get you to the airport in 20 minutes... not that you'll want to leave. This is a truly spectacular apartment... ##### Sarah W.

It was a great pleasure to stay in John's villa. It was beyond my expectations. Such a luxury! We have 7 person and we really enjoyed the stay there. Maria is very kind and helpful host, we received very warm welcome. This villa is interesting piece of architecture, interior design and decoration with the most breathtaking views. Everything is new and very clean. Great kitchen is fully equipped with high quality machines. The villa is located in a good place, 10 min walk to Funchal city center Av do Mar. The villa has a huge garage, so there is no need to worry about parking. WOW factors: Swimming Pool, Amazing Views, garage, space. Personally, I recommend villa to everyone who want to explore and relax in Madeira,Funchal. ##### Dennis A.

Apr 5, 2016 #### Wonderful house on a beautiful island Just returned from a week in John's beautiful house in Funchal. It was my first trip to Madeira and it was everything and more that people told me. It's a truly beautiful island, not commercialised, lovely people and food and John's place is ideally located to enjoy all that Funchal and the island has to offer. John was really helpful in giving us a travel advice, activities and was very responsive. His local contact (Maria) was absolutely first class and couldn't have done any more for us. The house itself has absolutely everything you need, fantastically fitted out, with amazing views over the town. I'm certainly going to return and would highly recommend the Island and John's house to anyone. ##### Nick K. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [NEXT - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-NEXT.h71119006.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence at Vila Porto Mare](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-The-Residence-At-Vila-Porto-Mare.h8034952.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Carlton-Madeira-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h14327.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Santa Cruz Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Santa-Cruz.h1376009.Hotel-Information) > > [Sé Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Se-Boutique-Hotel.h19531083.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Costa-Rica-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d42-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Melia Madeira Mare](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Melia-Madeira-Mare.h2264070.Hotel-Information) > > [Savoy Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Savoy-Palace-The-Leading-Hotels-Of-The-World-Savoy-Signature.h32089418.Hotel-Information) > > [TURIM Santa Maria Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Turim-Santa-Maria-Hotel.h39013081.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana CR7 Funchal](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-CR7-Funchal.h15737408.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cliff Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-The-Cliff-Bay.h190859.Hotel-Information) > > [Allegro Madeira - Adults Only - Member of Barceló Hotel Group](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Allegro-Madeira-Adults-Only.h1548302.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Royal All Inclusive Ocean & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Royal-Premium-All-Inclusive-Ocean-Spa-Resort.h487421.Hotel-Information) > > [Calheta Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Calheta-Hotels-Calheta-Beach-All-Inclusive-Savoy-Signature.h1056570.Hotel-Information) > > [Saccharum Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Calheta-Hotels-Saccharum-Resort-Spa-Savoy-Signature.h10225046.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ocean Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Ocean-Gardens.h2591201.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Casino Park Ocean and SPA Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Casino-Park-Ocean-And-SPA-Hotel.h14349.Hotel-Information) > > [Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Reids-Palace.h11185.Hotel-Information) > > [Enotel Lido](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Lido.h881176.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Madeira - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Palace-Madeira.h4813351.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Grand Premium Ocean Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Grand-Premium-Ocean-Resort.h1052356.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Narita (NRT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/nrt/vancouver-to-tokyo) > > [Air Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Canada-Flights.cAC.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Thunder Bay (YQT) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqt/yyz/thunder-bay-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/cdg/toronto-to-paris) > > [flights from london intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yxu/flights-from-london-intl-airport) > > [Air Transat](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Transat-Flights.cTS.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Packages > [Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/117/Mexico) > > [Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/42/Costa-Rica)
