Met and exceeded expectations

This is an excellent property. It is accurately described in its details and the service we received from the Agents was first class.
The property is modern, thoughtfully designed and immaculately presented. The day time areas are spacious and the terrace is breath taking. The bedrooms are a little small but certainly very useable and the whole property, including the apartment block it is located in, is very well maintained. There are lifts as well as stairs and a locked underground car park to keep the car cool during the day.
The location is about a 20 minute walk (downhill) to the sea front of Funchal, restaurants and the Casino. The walk back up the hill would be quite tiring for anyone who is not reasonably fit. However car use is easy and taxis readily available.
The only reason we have not given the property an unreserved recommendation is that at the time we stayed (July 08) there were road works going on a few hundred yards away and the daytime noise was intrusive, especially on the terrace. However we probably noticed the noise more than other people might as we live in the country and the work may well be finished already - we suggest you check with the Agent.
Otherwise this is an excellent property which when we rented was at a very attractive price. Add to that the good Customer Service from the Agent and this is a highly recommended property.
