Apartamentos Ferreiros by Heart of Funchal

Premium Experience Premium Experience. It’s rare that accommodations are one of the highlights of your stay but this proves the exception. The achievement for the total guest experience starts with the hosts engagement. The staff here connected earlier on, set elevated expectations, present at my checkin and responsive to all my questions and requests. Stellar performance!!!! Accommodation met all the upper criteria of excellence. Location is superb for these reasons: close to all local activities yet quiet, safe and away from the crowds at night. The unit is spacious and clean and the beds are very comfortable. This experience was so well done and should easily be the choice of anyone staying in Funchal. My thanks to all for a welcoming staff and quality accommodation.

The apartments are right in the heart of the city, close to the cathedral and many amenities. Madeira is a mountainous island but the area around the accommodation is quite flat and easily accessible with lots of good eating places and shops nearby. Though the apartment has no reception desk, we were welcomed to the apartment on our arrival and shown where things were. Wifi reception was good and we were able to stay in touch using texts and WhatsApps. We were in Apartamento 3 on the first floor. Though the apartment has no view as such, the room opened out onto an outdoor seating area which was a very convenient area for sitting out to have breakfast or read a book. The apartment has everything one needs to have a very pleasant stay in Funchal though a safe would be a useful addition so one could leave small items of value when out and about. Otherwise Filipa ensured we had everything we needed and lots of information about Madeira including where the nearest supermarket was etc. Filipa arranged a taxi to and from the airport at a reasonable rate and we’d advise taking that as the apartment is not terribly easy to find, being located in a short lane with restaurant seating. Our driver took us straight to the apartment and carried our bags in for us which was very helpful. Accommodation was very clean with a comfortable bed. Sheets and towels were changed and the apartment was thoroughly cleaned on a weekly basis. Kitchen was well fitted though we only ate breakfast in the apartment. There were so many good restaurants around we wanted to try different places in the area.

Excellent property in the heart of old town. Everything was so close by. Parking was difficult. We were on 1st floor, and without elevator had some difficulty in carrying our luggage (which I guess is normal in Europe). Highly recommended

Right in the center of Funchal. Great restaurants within reach. Cosy bars for a coffee (order a pastel de nata with it!) at every corner. Perfect starting point for exploring Madeira. Convenient and affordable parking nearby. Hosts are very helpful - they’ve send us to Great restaurants. Comfortably, neat accommodation - everything you need is there, but you’ll probably be strolling around Madeira a lot. The island is a delight!

Wonderful apartment The apartment is wonderful, exactly like the photos, and perfectly located in the centre of Funchal. As it was so accessible we travelled by bus from the airport, only about 6 minutes walk from the bus stop. Great communication from Alex who met us at the apartment on arrival. Apartment is very spacious and extremely clean. Also very quiet despite being in the centre of the town. Very good value compared to the hotels (many of which are well away from the town centre in the more touristy part of Funchal). Funchal was lovely and a great base for exploring - the mountain hiking and levada trails are unmissable. Would love to stay here again.

We had a great stay here! Filipa communicated so well and was very accommodating for us. Would highly recommend!
