Joao was a great host. Our flight was late arriving in Madeira, we arrived at Joao's place at 3am. and had no issues accessing the house. Joao had left everything arranged for our late arrival. The property was clean and spacious in nice overall condition, it is well situated on a hill with a nice view overlooking the harbour and the city and also close to a Continent grocery store. The property has a large garage for anyone renting a car. It is a short walk to the center of Funchal, it could be tiring walking back home if you are not much of a walker, but that was not an issue for us since we like to walk. Overall we were happy with our choice and would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Funchal.
