Villa das Quebradas by An Island Apart

Tucked into the hillside above Funchal on Caminho das Quebradas Baixo, this detached villa trades hotel-corridor anonymity for a private pool, sea-view sun deck, and a fully equipped kitchen stocked with oven, dishwasher, and coffee machine.

The outdoor setup runs deeper than most rentals: a BBQ terrace, patio dining area, and beach loungers make long afternoons self-contained. Hardwood floors and a sitting area with sofa carry through inside, while the washing machine and iron address longer stays without awkward laundry logistics.

The Quebradas district sits on Funchal's western residential slope, quieter than the tourist core yet linked by airport shuttle when needed. A 9.6 rating across 15 reviews points to consistent upkeep rather than lucky one-offs.
