Ocean panorama on the top floor
I recommend this spacious apartment of Beatrice without hesitation with two very nice terraces with a very nice view... Well-equipped, well-located... Paulo and Beatrice are very responsive by messages Top with optional private parking

Stunning Ocean View Apartment
We loved our stay in Antonio’s apartment. It was extremely clean and spacious and had everything we needed and then some. It even had a parking garage for our car. I appreciated that Antonio provided plenty of coffee, soap, shampoo and even laundry detergent. That was really nice and convenient. I loved sitting on the deck overlooking the gorgeous ocean view drinking my coffee or sipping a glass of wine. It was so relaxing! I highly recommend booking Antonio’s place. He is a superb, kind host and will go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and happy.

Casa da Betty - luxurious w/aircondition
It has been sometime since I stayed in a real home-y and cosy house like Betty's. Our whole group (two families with small children ) was very pleasantly surprised by this beautifully decorated home. There were many essentials as well as some offerings by the host readily available. The location(although not very close to the historic center) is fantastic as it is possible to walk to some famous rock pools and a beach, as well as many restaurants, a mall and a supermarket. Would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat.

SUPER Central - Deep Blue
The #1 thing that stood out for me was how incredibly responsive and professional these hosts are. Some of the best I've ever had. Excellent communication, as flexible as they could be, and just really lovely people. The location of this apartment was absolutely incredible, the best that one could have hoped for, and spotlessly clean. It was quite cozy but really had everything I needed. It is on the top floor and the elevator wasn't working, which I wish I had known because I would have packed differently, but in the end it was 10 minutes of inconvenience for a fantastic stay. a highly recommend for me

Casa do Miradouro 2 - Romantic Seaview House
The apartment and the view are unprecedented and offer everything you need. You can hear the highway and the airport, but the noise is manageable and not at all disturbing. A very big plus for Fátima and José, who were both extremely friendly and accommodating. They offered support at all times and were immediately available. A big thank you to both of them!

Enjoyed our stay! Nice view and cozy place

Renala I "With Jacuzzi" by PAUSA Holiday Rentals
We really enjoyed our stay in Madeira. This was the perfect home base for exploring the island. This home was amazing; larger and greater than expected. We really enjoyed the hot tub after a long day of hiking and exploring. I would definitely recommend this to others and would love to stay here again!

Costa Apartment - Vista Mar
The apartment is nice and clean , lots of restaurants there parking paid on street. Close to Funchal easy if you have car on hire

Wave Shadows Beach House
If you’re looking for a quiet coastal cottage in Madeira this place is perfect. The view is beautiful with restaurants right around the corner. You’re steps away from the beach and beautiful hiking trails. The house is small but well kept and was very comfortable for two guests

Casa do Penique ORGANIC
We felt very relaxed and comfortable at Antonio’s lovely house and the garden and views were impressive. We appreciated the interesting features in the garden with its nature feel and enjoyed the pool and sauna which we thought was a real asset for the place. The house is interesting and cared about and Antionio was an excellent and helpful host. We were glad of the car we hired to access shops, restaurants, beach and walking areas as without one would be difficult but it suited us really well as 4 adults who wanted a base from which to explore Madeira.

The View, Funchal
Scott’s place is a great place, not only because the back porch gave an EXCELLENT view, but there was a bus stop right outside the gate! Waking up and coming back to the gorgeous ocean view made our stay worth every penny!

Casa Abreu bright and stylish, sea, nature & relax
Everything you needed was there. The accommodation is stylish and clean. The host was always available and quick to respond.

Sea House
A great house in a beautiful location! You can't get any closer to the sea, and the sound of the sea accompanies you day and night. The house is very tastefully decorated and super clean. You make yourself at home straight away! Constantino is very helpful and has great tips. Without him, we would never have found the little beach in Seixal... We were here 14 days and enjoyed every minute. Thank you, Constantino!

Maria Bonita
What a nice place! We stayed at Danny’s place for 4 weeks! The place is big, really clean and well equipped. Danny is an amazing host, really responsive and friendly. Would 100% recommend!

North Coast Cabana
This atypical accommodation on several floors is very beautiful and perfectly well furnished. We took advantage of the 3 outdoor spaces. Warm welcome with a nice touch on our arrival (flowers, wine, beer, water, chocolate). We were also well advised for our outings and restaurants. Note: Not easy for me to park properly in the parking space but it is possible to park in a car park down the street. We are delighted with our stay at Adriana's

Two Birds Place - Mar, Sol e Natureza!
Horacio was the best host I've had so far on airbnb. Very welcoming and friendly. The apartment was ideal, well equipped and very clean. It is well located. We really enjoyed our stay. Recommend 100%.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Amazing sea and city views, top location
Maria’s 8th-floor apartment was perfect! Super clean, spacious, and the balcony had amazing views of the marina, Santa Catarina park, and the city. It has two bedrooms — one with a double bed, the other with two singles — both with private bathrooms and closets. There are three bathrooms total, all spotless. The kitchen had everything, plus a dishwasher and coffee machine. Laura, who welcomed us, was so kind and helpful. She messaged me before arrival, arranged parking, explained everything in the apartment, and even brought us a big bottle of water and fresh coffee capsules the next day. She also gave great local tips. The building has great security and private parking. Honestly, the whole stay was smooth and comfortable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Madeira — close to everything!

Surfside apartment in the heart of Paúl do Mar
Wonderful apartment right on the ocean. The apartment was very spacious and has everything you need. Also has easy parking just outside. An extra bonus is all the great restaurants nearby!

Whitehouse408 Sw.Pool & Pvt. Parking
Wonderful host, kind and friendly, great recommendations, great place!

New dream luxury appartment in the Madeira Palace.
This condo was beautiful, clean, and had an amazing view. Plenty of seating, close to a grocery store and many restaurants. The infinity pool which looked over the ocean was lovely. We would definitely recommend.

Luxury 3 Bedroom Flat with Sea View Terrace
We had a great time at Miguel and Ana’s place. They have a beautiful condo close to the sea and with a lovely balcony and view. Very spacious and a nice location. Overall, loved it!

Penthouse Marina Sol 20785/AL
We stayed for one night during our round trip on Madeira, but we would have wanted to stay longer. The place is really spacious, laundry machine and a great terrace with sea view. Madalena do Mar with its banana fields and colorful houses is a charming beach town. Don’t expect sand here, but definitely worth a stop!

Apt. F - Madeira OceanVibes by Leo (200 Mbps net)
My favorite place to stay in Madeira. The view is absolutely stunning, the apartment spacious and bright. Thank you!

Atlantic View Penthouse
Afonso's place is perfectly located, within walking distance to everything in Funchal. The Airbnb has a balcony, with an amazing view of the ocean. It has a lot of amenities for your stay in Maderia. There is underground parking which is a huge plus as you can rent a car to go further away in the island. The USP of the stay is Afonso, who is really well connected and super helpful with all your questions. An amazing gentleman. The flat can be well ventilated by opening doors and windows, the sea air is perfect to cool you down after the walks. There is also a fan available, but as mentioned in the listing, there is no A/C. We had no issues as we could just open windows and balcony doors, while using the fans.
