Well worth a stay
The apartment was clean and very spacious. plenty of room for myself, my wife and our two adult children and their partners. Easy access to Funchal by bus The No 2 stops right outside and is less than 10 minutes to the center of Funchal. The yellow hop on hop off bus also stops right outside the apartment. The apartment is on the 4tf floor with a lovely sea view and mountain view and has two lifts that work as they should. There is also a parking space in the basement and plenty of parking outside. Its only 5 minutes walk to the forum shopping centre, and also a short walking distance to nice restaurants. The reason I gave communication 4 out of 5 stars, is because I sent a text message saying we needed teaspoons and never got a reply, the next morning I purchased some spoons and when I returned to the apartment there was a bag with spoons tied to the door. If I got a reply I wouldn't have purchased more. other than that, I think the apartment was fantastic and I can highly recommend staying there. On a final note, It was excellent value for money.

Amazing place and great location
We came here for a family vacation. The flat was amazing, clean and in a great location with wonderful views. There was nearby access to the ocean, supermarkets, coffee shops and restaurants. Also, easy access to coastal walking and downtown. We would definitely stay here again the next time in Madeira. Also, Nelson was very helpful, and even helped us with a car battery issue.

The apartment was spacious and located in the same building complex with shops and restaurants. It was also right at the bus stops connecting directly to the center of Funchal as a well as to the airport. There was also a designated parking spot in the underground parking for the rented car. We all had wonderul time.

Best Location and, great apartment
Apartment was in great location, Mall, supermarket,restuarants, views, sunset views, natural pools. Had to let owner know to raise the hotel waster Temp. because it was just luke warm. Big issue was the stench of urin in master bedroom and one other bedroom. The prior guests must have pee in bed. If that is fixed we would stay again for sure. Use the hello bus and not the Red bus if you going to do Funchel tour. More busses and come right to Apartment

Great Base to Explore Madeira
We recently stayed at Joe and Nelson's apartment in Sao Martinhao. I echo what other reviewers say: huge apartment, beautiful western facing view, large balcony, well-appointed kitchen, comfy beds, #4 bus to Funchal and aeroport shuttle at the front door, and a 5-7 minute walk to the Forum shopping centre and Pingo Doce. We did not have a rental car but if we did, they have underground parking. The Wifi was strong and they even have a TV package that has channels in various languages. This was especially appreciated in the evening after spending all day exploring Madeira. While the decor is basic and a bit old fashioned, the apartment itself is high quality. One side (master bedroom & living area) faces the ocean, the other side faces the street. Noise was minimal at night although in one of the rooms, you could hear the upstairs neighbour talking on the phone. Shoutout to Joe and Nelson who helped us communicate with the airline when our luggage did not arrive. Once it was located, they were super helpful in ensuring it got to the right place and even followed up to see if we were ok. Thank you! For the size and location of this property, I think it offers great value and a wonderful base from which to explore this beautiful island!

Amazing View!
We spent just over six weeks at this apartment and enjoyed our stay. The view from the huge, main balcony is stunning both day and night and was ideal for BBQ’s. The balcony at the front is sunny and has a lovely side view of the sea. The apartment itself is huge and the beds are comfortable. The main kitchen appliances were up to date and efficient. The location is superb with lots of excellent restaurants very close by. The supermarket in the complex was well stocked and reasonably priced and at the Forum the Pingo Doce supermarket is enormous and has everything you might need. Unfortunately the tunnel to the Formosa beach was closed but we enjoyed the walk in the other direction to the Lido. Despite the restrictions of COVID we really enjoyed our stay and felt very safe. Mask wearing was enforced in all indoor areas and buses and the majority of people wore them outside too.

Excellent spacious apartment
Spent seven fabulous days at this outstanding apartment. We greeted by very helpful and attentive host. In the apartment everything was spotless and fully equipped with lovely fresh towels. Rock pools within walking distance was great and supermarket forum just up the road meant the location with easy accessibility to amenities and activities was possible. Thank you for a great stay. Till next time.

Excellent place to stay, I could look at the view forever!
Joe & his brother Nelson are excellent hosts. The apartment is roomy and a perfect place for me, my brother and sister, each with our own bedroom (I got the ensuite!). The kitchen is well equipped and balconies on either side provided shade and sun (weather permitting) as required. Excellent transport links into Funchal via the bus stop right outside, and the shopping area in the centre has a supermarket ideal for most items when we don't want to make the 10 minute hike up to the Forum where there is a large supermarket. Varied restaurants within a 2 minute walk are ideal to suit any palate. All in all a perfect location for a Xmas / New Year break. Wish we could stay longer!

Wonderful apartment with amazing views!
Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our 5 weeks stay at the apartment in Sao Martinho, Funchal. Joe and Nelson are great hosts and quickly respond to any inquiries. The apartment has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. The posted pictures are true to what the apartment looks like inside with one recent exception - the twin beds have been replaced by a double bed. The city and airport buses stop right outside the building which is very convenient. The apartment is in a great location, close to a shopping mall, grocery store, wonderful coffee shops and restaurants. The Lido Promenade just outside the apartment building is a well maintained seaside walkway and is ideal for a lovely walk, coffee time at one of the many cafes, a swim in one of the pools or salt water lava pools and watching beautiful sunrises. Lastly, we so loved the 2 balconies whether it was having a meal outside or enjoying a glass of wine as we savoured the amazing view. It was wonderful. Until the next time.....

Spacious apartment 100 yards from the sea. Quiet location . Balcony with lovely view over the water and stunning sunsets spring to autumn. Fine selection of bars and restaurants on your doorstop . The Forum shopping centre is a 5 minute walk. The bus at the front door takes you into the centre of Funchal in 15 minutes or you can take a lovely walk along the bay in 45 minutes. Since finding this apartment in April 2016 we have been back 7 times. That says it all .

Great apartment.
We were a group of 4 friends who stayed for a month. Had everything we needed and it quickly felt like home. Joe and his brother Nelson were terrific hosts. Convenient location; bus stop to downtown Funchal, Formosa Beach, restaurants, Forum Madeira mall (groceries/shopping), natural ocean swimming pools and Lido Promenade(seaside walk with cafes, shops and tour info)all nearby. We never tired of the wonderful balcony views of the ocean, Cabo Girao and the hills overlooking Funchal. Highly recommend this apartment and would love to return.
