I visited for 7 nights in November 2011 and had a lovely time. Found this place by accident and the pictures on their website are true, the view over the harbour is stunning and breakfast is indeed served on the brekfast terrace as pictured, which is lovely on a sunny morning.

That’s what this delightful manor house on a hill overlooking Funchal and its iconic harbour offered. It was a 10/15 minute bus ride from the centre of town. This was a great way to travel up and down, as buses are punctual and full of locals, who want to chat. You can buy a five day bus pass for 13... More

The owner, Rita, has converted her parents' beautiful home into an idyllic haven for visitors to Funchal and all of Madeira. She explained that after her parents passed on, she and her siblings couldn't bear to sell the house, but instead converted it into the amazing B&B property that it is today. The lovely garden area is only surpassed by... More

My husband and I stayed here last year and we loved it so much we went back this summer with my relatives for my birthday celebration. We couldn't have chosen a better place - Rita and her wonderful staff make you feel completely at home and it is a privilege to stay in such a fabulous setting. We know Madeira... More
