Live the centenary history of Madeira Embroidery in an apartment with excellent design and memories of regional culture.
Right in the centre of Funchal, right next to the Farmers Market, this fantastic apartment offers you all the convenience.
Set in a building that housed an old Madeira Embroidery Factory, this property is divided into six independent fractions, each named after well-known Madeira Embroidery stitching.
With a modern and functional architecture, these studios have small notes that take you back to the past and make you know a little about the embroidery of the island. With a bedroom with double bed, one bathroom and fully equipped kitchen, the apartment has the capacity to accommodate two people.
For those who like to enjoy a good time of relaxation, you can enjoy the pleasant communal terrace, available on the rooftop of the building, which has a kitchen, so you can cook your meals.
On the same terrace there is a common laundry room to the building.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW
Drapes is situated in a privileged central area, right in the heart of Funchal. Within a few steps from the famous Farmers’ Market (Mercado dos Lavradores) and the historic centre of Funchal (locally known as ‘Zona Velha’), from here you can explore by foot many of the main tourist attractions of our beautiful town. (e.g. The Cable Car, Funchal Marina, CR7 Museum, Cathedral, Madeira Wine Lodge, etc ...)
Just right in front of the building you have an excellent connection to the local and intercity bus network, connecting you to all places in the island, and covering both the east and west regions, so that it will not be necessary to go far in case you want to benefit from these services. In addition to these facilities, the building has a shopping centre with several shops, cafés, restaurants and a medium-sized supermarket.
GETTING AROUND
With a bus stop practically at the doorstep, transport will be no problem for our guests.
Although a aerobus bus stop for airport arrivals and departures is within 2 minutes walk distance from the flat, we recommend the private transfer service as the best option to get to the flat. Contact us in advance to schedule a private transfer car with our local partners. It is cheaper than taking a taxi by your own in the airport!
GUEST ACCESS
Guests have access to all areas of the flat.
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
We are always at your disposal to help or to answer your questions. You can contact us via our mobile numbers or by email. We will do our best to meet your requests.
OTHER OBSERVATIONS
- According to Portuguese law, all guests are required to present a valid ID. (E.g. passport, identity card).
- Check-in must be scheduled in advance. In case the check-in is not scheduled within a maximum of 48 hours prior arrival, guests will be subject to the availability of our team.
- All bed linen and towels are provided. We can also provide a crib, a baby high chair and a baby bathtub if needed. First aid kit, fire extinguisher and fire blanket are available in all properties.
ATTENTION
Please be advised that a Tourist Fee will be charged to all persons staying overnight in the municipality of Funchal. Thus, all customers staying in tourist resorts and/or accommodation establishments, aged 13 or over, will be charged €2.00 per person/night, up to a maximum of 7 nights and a maximum of €14.00 per person/stay. When you arrive, you will receive a link to pay this municipal tax.

I once made use of the washing machine which is shared with the other guest apartments in the building. That came in handy especially when only travelling with hand luggage.
The location. Well it is excellently located in the city, very easy to get anywhere and also to the cable car area where a lot of tours depart from. But the building is situated by a very busy road, and the entrance is by a very busy bus stop. So the surroundings are noisy, it has to be said. But I quickly got used to that.
I really liked having the big supermarket Pingo Doce just steps away. They had everything! Even an café and an eatery.
I would recommend this apartment to anyone who wishes to be centrally located, and not in the main hotel/tourist area. Perfect for exploring Madeira!

We appreciate your understanding of the bustling location and are glad you found the proximity to amenities convenient. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back to An Island Apart. Thank you!

Toll ist bei "AIA", dass Dinge wie Salz, Pfeffer, Öl, Kaffee, Tee (ggf. Filtertüten) gestellt werden.
Das Bett war groß und sehr bequem. Das Bad praktisch und funktional.
Die liebevollen Details hinter Glas (Bügeleisen, Nähmaschine &Co.) versprühten viel Charme und Gemütlichkeit.
Man muss sich aufgrund der direkten, zentralen Lage auf einen hohen Geräuschpegel einstellen. Schlafen mit Ohropax war aber ok. Alles super!

Centralissimo e per questo motivo caotico la mattina presto (vicino c’è una fermata dell’autobus e ed stato fastidioso, ogni giorno, chiedere di spostare le persone da davanti alla porta per passare) ! Però se si vuole rimanere in centro questo è il prezzo da pagare .
Pulito, bellissima terrazza . Ci torneremmo sicuramente!

Nous comprenons cependant que le stationnement et l'emplacement de la porte d'entrée à proximité d'un arrêt de bus très fréquenté peuvent constituer des défis. Vos suggestions concernant le stationnement à Santa Luzia et votre remarque sur la porte d’entrée sont très appréciées et nous allons prendre en compte ces points dans notre processus d'amélioration continue.
Merci encore pour votre précieux feedback. Nous espérons avoir l'occasion de vous accueillir à nouveau.

Some reviews said it was noisy by the main road, I wouldnt say it was not a problem especially when you're tired! Nice, clean and modern apartment with some quirky madeiran themed style.
The kitchen was very well equipt and the terrace was often lovely to eat our dinners at!
Overall great stay especially considering the price we paid.

1. Great location - very central
2. Spacious apartment
3. Access code
4. Comprehensively equipped kitchen
5. Nice rooftop (public space) and other useful public amenities
Cons:
1. Cleanliness - wasn't the best. Sheets and pillow cases were stained, and the floor was dirty
2. Noise - despite double glazed windows the noise from the street downstairs and especially the bus stop is clearly heard in the apartment
3. Comfort - bed is old and lumpy, pillows are cheap and of a poor quality, couch is uncomfortable, TV is in an awkward place, rocking chair is redundant, cushions are cheap and of a poor quality - it wasn't a place that I wanted to relax in

1. Very central location to everywhere and every service you will need
2. Very spacious apartment
3. Kitchen comprehensively equipped
4. Access code - very handy
Cons:
1. Cleanliness - the floors, in particular, were not properly vacuumed or swept, and the bed sheets and pillow cases were stained
2. Noise - I know this is something that was mentioned by some previous reviewers, and although we weren't too perturbed by it, I am mentioning it for other guests. This is because of the busy street in front of the hotel and specifically the bus stop, neither of which can be helped, I presume. The double glazing on the windows is not helpful either
3. Cleaning ladies were noisy and oblivious to other guests as they made a huge racket while cleaning. Unprofessional
4. Comfort - the couch is uncomfortable, the rocking chair is purely for aesthetics, the cushions on the couch have seen better days, the pillows on the bed were old, worn and of a cheap and poor quality, the mattress is old and lumpy
5. Subjective opinion perhaps, but those curtains!! - aside from being unattractive in their current configuration, we couldn't actually use them - they were mostly stuck

- easy self checking in/out
Cons:
- noisy from the outside activities
- lack of parking, but options in the nearby area are available ( I recommend the min 3 entry fee at the Anadia Commercial Center)
- not necessarily a con, but the washing machine was in a common space upstairs on the rooftop

It is on a busy street, but the windows block out the sound pretty well and the powered blinds and shutters did a good job of blocking the light. The exception is on Saturday and Sunday nights when the sound from the discotheque across the street is pretty loud into the night, but that didn’t bother us.
We let the proprietor know that the shelf in the bathroom had broken about a week into our stay, and while they promptly replied to say that they would let their maintenance person know, they never came and fixed it or otherwise got back to us.
The check-in process was a little weird because the owner uses an app separate from the AirBnB app and we had to figure out how to navigate that one - which worked better on a laptop than a phone, in my view. That said, when we had questions, they responded quickly.
Was a good base for our vacation. Would recommend.

The central downtown location makes it a good starting point for all activities. Bus stop at the building entrance, shopping and parking in the building, beautiful common area roof-top terrace, market, harbour.....all within quick walking distance. This incluces the expected dowtown noise level, you easily get used to. Do not expect a quiet place near the water or beach. The modern windows-fassade cannot block the street's noise. I have made suggestions for easily possible improvements of the single-pane-fassade above the windows up to the same top quality the rest of fassade and windows already have. With these improvements, I would give it 5-stars.
The well equipt apartment is modern and bright with all amanities including air conditioning, easy to use. Internet works perfectly. TV-programs are restricted, but not necessary for an outside vacation. The pictures on the webside show reality. You quickly feel at home. On- and offline-services works very well and are quickly responsive.
