Peace and quiet on the south coast
The house is very spacious and the balcony and garden are great to relax in. The views from the house are drop dead gorgeous, and the location far up on the slope means that there is little noise or traffic to distract a peaceful afternoon or evening. The location does demand that you navigate very steep, narrow, winding roads that definitely took some getting used to. Having a good car is crucial, since even though there is a market and a few restaurants within walking distance, the walk back up is quite strenuous. Located just below the Paul de Serra plateau, you have easy access to the Fanal Forest and other hiking trails. It is a fairly easy 45 minute drive to Funchal once you make your way down the steep part of town. Our host was fantastic and made checking in and out incredibly easy.
