Luxury flat, in historic building, in Funchal city centre.
Malvasia Branca de São Jorge or Malmsey is a grape variety used for the production of Madeira Wine. Malvasia is part of a group of properties called "The Wine Lodges", located in the heart of the city, in a historic building, which houses one of the most important Madeira wine cellars, owned by the iconic Blandy family. With a decoration thought to detail, where elegance coexists in symbiosis with the building's history, this property offers excellent comfort and luxury details without equal. The flat has generous spaces, making it perfect for a holiday with a group of friends or family. Situated on the first floor, in its total area we find a master bedroom with double bed. The guest bedroom is equipped with two single beds and the living room has a sofa bed for two people. This property accommodates a maximum of six people. Wi-Fi is available in all areas of the house. There is no lift and no private parking. AREA The property is located in the noble and central area of Funchal. From this property, you will be able to know all the downtown and main points of interest. This flat is situated right next to the famous Municipal Garden of Funchal and very close to the Funchal Marina and the Municipal Theatre. In the same building of the property you can visit one of the most important Madeira wine lodges. Blandy's Wine Lodges is open daily for tastings and guided tours. In these same lodges you may get to know and purchase a wide range of wines, which you may later pick up at the airport after passing through customs. Guests of this property have one free ticket per couple. Another must is the bar and restaurant "1811 Wine Bar", which is located in the same building. Here, you can enjoy unique delicacies accompanied by excellent wines. Our guests are granted an exclusive discount in this fantastic space. In the city centre there is plenty of information about all kinds of activities you can do during your holiday: cultural activities, radical activities, activities linked to nature... whatever the purpose of your visit to Madeira Island!

Perfect spot in the historic center. My only issue was with the transfer of sound between apartments and stairs and hallway. It’s an old building so I understand this but it can be annoying at times. Otherwise large apartment and comfortable and lots of light very pleasant.

Positive: Die „Größe“; das Flair und die Einrichtung; TOP Lage; Zugangssystem mit Code‘s. Elektrischer Heizkörper für kühlere Tage. Negative: Die Parkplatzsituation; unmittelbar angrenzendes Parkhaus, aber für mehrtägige Aufenthalte „sauteuer“ - eine zweite, separate Toilette wäre perfekt

Positive: The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed a cooker, cooking utensils, cutlery, a dishwasher with tablets, and even dish soap if you prefer to hand‑wash. There was also a fridge‑freezer, washing machine, a small clothesline, and a towel hanger for drying clothes. It is old‑fashioned, or you could say a bit outdated as mentioned in other reviews, but that didn’t bother us at all. The location was perfect — right in the centre, and we could easily walk to the promenade, the old town, and other local attractions. During our stay, the carnival celebrations were happening literally outside the apartment. We had no idea it was on, so being able to enjoy the carnival every night was an unexpected bonus. Negative: The only issue that bothered me during our 5‑night stay was the bathroom setup. The bathroom itself is quite spacious, but the shower design was inconvenient. The shower area is open on both sides, with the shower screen placed only in the middle. Because of this, it was almost impossible to keep the water flowing directly toward the drain — it would escape from one side or the other and spread across the bathroom floor. As a result, after every shower the entire bathroom floor would get wet, which was frustrating and also felt unsafe. Since we didn’t have a mop, I had to wipe the floor down each time someone showered, using my son’s old T‑shirt to make sure no one slipped. This was the only part of our stay that really annoyed me.I did mention the shower issue to the owner, and they did acknowledge it. I also understood that it’s not something with an easy or quick fix, especially in an older property. Since there was no immediate solution and I didn’t want to spend my holiday chasing it up, I just managed as best as I could. Still, it’s worth mentioning for future guests.
