I had a wonderful stay at the apartment. It was very comfortable and located in a beautiful place. There was a municipal pool nearby for children and adults. The restaurants and the waterfront were right next to the building. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.

Good choice to stay in Madeira
We were a family of 4 adults, 1 child and 1 baby.
Everything was very clean and the house is very cosy. The location is really good.
Everything went smoothly with the check-in and check-out process.
The only thing I recomend for people traveling with a baby is that there are a few steps after the front gate. The baby stroller needs to be picked up going up and down the stairs. Also keep in mind that if you stay with a group of 5 or 6 at the house, don't take long showers, the water heater is not that big and you can run out of hot water and then have to wait a couple of hours so the water gets heated up the water again.
Other then that all was perfect and we had a great time in Madeira!
