    Nothing.

    Angelo is a super host, he showed us everything and was very helpful with local info. The best thing about the apartment is its locality, quiet, green, steps away from the shopping center and gas station. Bus stop for Funchal city center some 50 meters away. Parking in Angelo's yard with a motorized gate. Lots of space, powerful WiFi. Two bathrooms, two bedrooms. One of the best accommodations we experienced on our trips.

    The accommodation was fantastic and the host Angelo was very nice and willing to help anytime. Our flight was delayed, but it was not a problem at all to come later in the night as expected. We were welcomed with homed made cake, vine and avocados. It was very calm place in the middle of banana trees with amazing views. We enjoyed having breakfast on one of the terraces in the morning with the company of the cat Marshall or sitting in the evening outside and watching the sunset. The big shopping mall was very close (approximately 2 minutes’ walk) and it was opened every day till night, so you could buy whatever you need, or just go for a coffee or some food. I would really recommend this house.

    Spacious apartment in Funchal surrounded by banana trees with a great host - absolutely recommended
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Holiday Home
    • Stayed 9 nights

    The apartment is in a large house which is surrounded by an amazing garden full with banana trees. Very spacious, more than enough room for a family of four (We were with two teenagers). Two terraces with ocean view, and one to grill. There is a huge shopping center 2 minutes walk from the house, with fast food restaurants and a grocery store open until late in the evening. So you can easily do your shopping either in the morning or late in the evening when you arrive home from your daily trip. The center of Funchal is a bit far, but easily accessible by bus. The bus stop is just right at the corner. Angelo is a great host, helpful and informative. We loved their cat, Marshall, who came around the house every morning and also in the evenings. If your priority is not going out every evening in the center, but have a large and well equipped apartment in a peaceful street with beautiful garden and view, I absolutely recommend Angelo's place.

    Great place! Almost always pictures exaggerate the place, here it's the opposite. An amazing villa for friends and family. Never used the BBQ but it's a great feature.

    The accommodation has a cosy and friendly atmosphere. The host was very kind and waited for us with small delicacies. The house is in a very cosy and quiet place. There is shopping nearby (within 150 m). You can park your car in the enclosed garden. Everything went smoothly, we had a great time! Thank you!

    really nothing.

    The host, Angelo, was very helpful and communicative. The wine and the lemon cake with "welcome" on top were a great surprise - thanks! The place is located near a large shopping mall which is very useful. Everything was present in the kitchen and bathroom - we missed nothing.

    A fantastic week in a fantastic holiday home

    Nothing. If i have to think of something, we couldn't get wifi signal in the bedroom areas (though we had a good phone signal there anyway), but downstairs in the lounge the wifi is good...so this really isnt anything to complain about.

    It is an absolutely fantastic place to stay, stylish and very comfortable. There is a big shopping centre with huge supermarket 5 mins walk away yet the property feels right in the country amongst the banana trees. You see nothing of any developments around and hear no cars. There are four different outdoor sitting areas, some in the sun with sea views and some in the shade which were fantastic. The kitchen has everything you need. There is gated parking (also a bus stop 5 mins away), and the property is well located to get by car to the motorways, Funchal, and the mountains (Valley of the Nuns is 25 minutes away!) Angelo the owner is very helpful and friendly. This is the best holiday home we have ever stayed in and intend coming back in the future. One extra thing...Ana had left a delicious welcoming cake for us, there was a bottle of their own wine, and Angelo kept us stocked with his delicious bananas from the garden trees.

    The property was beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean and well equipped. Our hosts gave us a warm welcome with some delicious cake and homemade Madeira wine!

    An exceptional welcome. The kindness of our hosts is limitless. On arrival, a succulent cake, local fruits, a bottle of madeira from our hosts and a tasting in their cellar. Locations: as described on booking.com. Impeccable cleanliness and absolute calm although near a large shopping center. Thanks to Angelo and Ana for allowing us to have an extraordinary stay. If we return to Madeira, no doubt it will be at Casa D'Avo Celina. It is a regret we can’t put a rating above 10! Counsels for visitors: A) 2 great fish restaurants; 1 on the coast at 5-8' Marisqueira o Barqueiro; 1 in Camara de Lobos (10') Vila do Peixe. B) housing is difficult to find. Go around the "Madeira shopping center" (lots of signs to this center), when you pass in front of the gas pump (photo 1 attached), turn carefully immediately right (photo 2) and continue to the end of the dead end street (+/- 40 meters) (photo3) and you will be at your destination in front of a wide front door.

    It was just amazing! Apartment is super comfortable and very well equipped (dishwaser, washing machine, bbq). It is located close to the shopping mall so you can easily make your grocery shopping. There is also parking spot for apartment’s guest. Amazing view firm the window and birds singing during the day! Totally recommended!

    The house is perfect, well equipped with two bedrooms, bathrooms and terraces. Lovely decor, all facilities are sparkling and work well. Even an outdoor bbq and utility room! Quickly felt like home from home. Angelo and Ana were so welcoming, with fresh bananas and guava from their garden, homemade compote, Madeira wine and fresh bread! Theres a nearby supermarket and bus stop so everything is on hand..what a find! And their cat is gorgeous!!
