just like the pictures
This villa is located a little off center, about a good 15 minutes walk down to the center, meaning that there is a good hill to climb back up. Grocery store is not close by. Cleanliness is ok, with the exception of the shower in the shared bathroom upstairs where there's a lot of molding and even small live black worms. Neighbour's dogS can be tiersome as they seem to be put out and left there on their own for extended period of time. But the view is well worth it and the general comfort of the place is very satisfactory. 3 couples can easily fit, 2 of them sharing a bathroom, as there is 1 en-suite bedroom. It is equiped for babies too.

Fabulous Funchal
The property delivered everything it promised. It is in a prime location with great views of the harbour/city. The city centre was easy to access on foot or by the bus which had a stop not more than 200 metres from the gate. When we rented a vehicle the main highway(VR 1) was easily accessed within 3 to 5 minutes. The place was well appointed for long stays, the beds were very comfortable and the house was very secure. It would have been nice if a just basic condiments were included (mustard, ketchup, sugar etc) to start.

Schöne Lage großes Haus für BestAger
Grundsätzlich ist alles vorhanden. Ein paar mehr Handtücher hätten es sein können. Unsere Männnertruppe hat sich dort aber sehr wohl gefühlt. Als störend war nur das nächtliche Gebell der Hunde aus der direkten Nachbarschaft. Das Haus kann man gut weiterempfehlen. Die Möbilierung des Hauses ist etwas veraltet.
