Nice family with good conversation. Everything was just fine. all the appointments we made were ok. we had a superb time in Madeira. love to go back!

Nice people, very spontaneous and practical. The apartment has 3 bedrooms and there is a lovely roof terrace. The apartment is very centrally located in Funchal, which also means you should not try to get there in a SUV, because streets are very narrow. (We got there in a rented Megane Scenic).
