Located in a premium tranquil residential area of Funchal, close by you will find all the facilities you may need and easy access to town and, via the expressway, to all areas of Madeira.
On the ground floor, a very spacious open-space lounge and elevated dining area with direct sea-view is complemented by a separate private TV room. A fully equipped kitchen features a breakfast table and TV and leads to the covered veranda with outdoor dining table and built-in barbecue overlooking the pool, Funchal and the sea. The whole front of the villa is the south-facing solarium that features a magnificent infinity style heated pool overlooking Funchal and the ocean. Of the villas in Funchal, this one very probably provides the best view of the new year's eve fireworks and cruise ships in the harbour.
A large games/leisure room with pool table, table football and a treadmill can be found in the lower ground floor.

A further room with a double bed and two rooms each with two single beds share the family bathroom and a full-length south-facing balcony. All offer direct sea-views from this beautiful villa.

On the 1st floor bedroom landing is a single chaise longue bed with mattress, underneath of which is a pull out mattress, for the 11th and 12th persons (more appropriate for children - you can see this in the pictures).

Madeira
Some seven hundred kilometres west of the African
coast, Madeira is a stunning mountainous emerald island, lapped by
the warm waters of the Gulf Stream. The first island to be
discovered by the Portuguese navigators in 1419, Madeira became an
important resting place on the long trip to the new world. From
these humble beginnings, the holiday trade was formed and this
spectacular island, which used to be the favourite place of the
rich and famous, is now the preferred choice of all sorts of
visitors, from those seeking year-round warm temperatures to nature
lovers and sightseers, sports and active enthusiasts of all ages.
Culture, history, stunning nature, a myriad of sea and land
activities, added to a great foodie scene means Madeira has
something for everyone. No matter where you go on the island you
are rewarded by fabulous scenery, tiny villages and friendly
people. With a population of over 100,000, Funchal is not only the
capital, but also the 'heart' of Madeira and home to many of the
islanders. This makes it a busy, chic, cosmopolitan and fun city,
full of shops, shopping centres, bars, cafés and a great variety of
restaurants and entertainment; a vibrant, cosmopolitan town where
historic splendour and breath-taking natural beauty combine with a
thoroughly modern atmosphere.

Reviews
The view from this villa is simply stunning! The villa itself is very spacious with loads of room and storage space. Everything was clean and tidy and the kitchen was well equipped. Towels were plentiful. Swimming pool was wonderful and worth the additional expense to get heated. Basement bedroom was a little claustrophobic with no natural light. Windows need replacing in a couple of bedrooms, but you can walk out to the balcony to enjoy the view! First floor bathroom could get crowded servicing six people with no door locks on any bathroom doors! Our Madeira staff were great, communication excellent and they were very helpful. All in all a great holiday and we all had fun, thank you As at June 2023
Fabulous villa, location and service. Well placed to see Island. The view is stunning and owner photos are true to life. Would highly recommend for the hours lounging by the pool alone!
We were a group of 6 adults. The villa is well equipped and the views are magnificent. Lots of room for us. Definitely recommend. A car is recommended. Walking into Funchal is going down hill about 50 minutes walk. Taxi back . Supermarket about 10 minutes walk and restaurant about 5 minutes downhill.
Villa Luz and Our Madeira Holidays were absolutely fabulous. the villa is set in a perfect location, was well set up. We stayed with our 2 children and my sisters family (who had a 2yr old). There was plenty of space and things to do in the villa, it was easy to get around into Funchal and the kids loved the pool. Our Madeira were brilliant hosts, communicated accurately and quickly when needed.
Excellent house and view of sea and port. Plenty of rooms to spreadout! A great mini shop 10/15 mins walk away downhill. A lovely garden bar about 10mins. Excellent restaurant at top of the main hill - but took at 25 mins to get there as up hill. Walking down to sea is doable (about 50-60mins), but we ended up getting a taxi for €13 euro. Of course taxi on way back due to hills! Old Town is a must visit - so beautiful with plenty of bars/restaurants and massive supermarket.
We had a perfect stay. Very nice house with a beautiful view!
Wir waren insgesamt 8 Leute und haben die 10 Tage auf Madeira bestmöglich genossen! Der beheizte Pool im Januar war ein riesen Highlight! Die Küche ist super und auch die Putzfrauen, die unsere Bettwäsche etc. gewechselt haben und noch die Villa grandios sauber gemacht haben, haben ihren Lob verdient! Wir sind alle sehr dankbar für diese Zeit und empfehlen es gerne weiter! :)
Insanely beautiful views in a grand house with the best location in Madeira. Couldn't be more pleased with our stay.
We loved this house! It is perfect for 10 guests. We staid for a week. As an extended family it was great to have a lot of space for both joint activities and me-time. The view is amazing, we were a bit concerned that we would hear the traffic from the highway, but that was not the case. We highly recommend this house. Ask them to preheat the pool, totally worth it to have the kids in the water 24-7. Rent a car and drive around the island, you will not regret it.
Absolutely excellent stay at Villa Luz. They were excellent hosts, and the house is lovely. Sitting outside by the pool in the Madeira sun was amazing, and the kitchen and indoor areas are very flexible for large groups of all ages.
Wir waren mit 2 Familien da und hatten eine großartige Zeit. Die Villa ist sehr geräumig, der Pool ein Highlight nicht nur für die Kleinen. Außerdem liegt sie sehr zentral und bietet einen tollen Ausblick! Wir kommen sicher wieder!
Notre expérience avec Our Madeira a été très bonne, Norberta et Linda sont professionnelles et sympathiques. La villa que nous avons louée pour 10 fut une bonne option, grande, soignée et bien placée. Elles nous ont conseillées des restaurants locaux et aidées pour la location de voiture.
As a family of 7 with 2 young children, we enjoyed the wonderful flower island with this spacious villa as a base. The outdoor areas are great, the pool is beautiful and the house is easily accessible by public transport. The welcome was very warm and the villa was very well cleaned. We would love to come back to this fantastic place.
Wunderschöne Villa
We had a lovely time in the villa, thank you so much for having us!
With kind, prompt and efficient support, this clean and well-equipped villa with a superb view is ideal for even larger groups to use as a base for checking out Madeira. We really loved the place and found everything in the place to be of comfort and beauty.
Tout bien
The vila is really nice and perfectly located. Host was very friendly and helpful. We enjoy the view, huge heated swimming pool and grilling. Recommended
Obiekt wyśmienity. Wielka willa, przestrzenne pomieszczenia. Fajny wystrój i wyposażenie. Niezły stół do bilarda i zabytkowe piłkarzyki ale w pełni funkcjonalne. Piękny widok (villa znajduje się na jednym z punktów widokowych). Basen podgrzewany (opcja) i da się w nim kąpać nawet w styczniu w najzimniejszym tygodniu :) Wyposażenie w pełni sprawne. Internet realnie działał z prędkością 4-6 Mb/s . Dojazd nad nad ocean taxi Bolt to koszt ok 3.7 Euro, do centrum Funchal 7,5 Euro. Pieszo do centrum Funchal idzie się 45 min. Niedaleko przystanki autobusowe. Jedyny minus: trochę słychać odgłosy autostrady. Ogólnie w 100% polecam.
Perched above the city of Funchal Villa Luz was a wonderful quiet retreat and a great base for exploring the island. Madeira has shown exemplary handling of COVID with mandatory free testing on arrival and results delivered that night. So by the next morning we were free to roam (wearing masks of course!). The villa was clean, well appointed and had everything two adults and three teens needed. The big supermarket was a 4 min drive and it was possible to walk to the smaller supermarket down the hill. We had a car and used it to go to Funchal old town and restaurants, though some have a minibus service. Ther eis a lot to see and do and a week was not enough! Our Madeira (Norberta and Carolina) were really helpful and super responsive with any queries. Top notch.
Wonderful place, fantastic location for the views.
Die Größe.,der Pool die Aussicht, die Nähe zu Funchal
Zum zweiten Mal haben wir eine Ferienvilla über Our Madeira gebucht. Die Schlüsselübergabe war in der COVID 19 Zeit angemessen gut. Die Unterkunft, Ausstattung, Pool, Lage waren sehr gut. Wir suchen schon eine Villa für das nächste Jahr, wenn man den Reisen darf.
Fabulous villa with incredible views, very well equipped kitchen, lovely pool and a spacious master bedroom. The downstairs bedroom has no windows so feels a bit cave like, but there is brilliant games room and all the other bedrooms have beautiful city/ocean views. Would highly recommend and hope to return.
Vi var en famllj på 5 personer, mycket utrymme och en av Madeiras bästa utsikter. Värt att värma upp poolen för den utnyttjades mycket. Bra spelrum och fantastisk uteplats. Rent och fint och väldigt bra kontakt med uthyrarna. Huset ligger en bit upp på berget så det behövs taxi eller bil för att ta sig nånstans. Bra priser på taxi.
Amazing villa ! Everything was perfect :)
Lovely villa, brilliant view, great for families, get the pool heated, well worth it
We had a warm welcome by a member of the "Our Madeira" team. The villa is gorgeous and the view over Funchal is amazing. We, a group of four, had a splendid time at this property, enjoying the luxurious infinity pool, the great infrastructure of the villa, including pool table and kicker table. Of course, we also enjoyed exploring Funchal and Madeira on various trips.
Beautiful house with a breathtaking view and lots of space - had fun in the pool - good equipment and the house is close to little shop where we could buy all we needed - hope to be back one day :) the host is doing a perfect work
Die Gastgeber sind sehr zuvorkommend und hilfreich. Sie antworten Zeitgemäss. Wir hatten genau das erhalten was wir gebucht haben. Sind 2 Wochen in dem Haus gewesen und hatten eine lustige, erholsahme und abendteuerlustige Zeit. Die Lage des Hauses ist mit Auto auch sehr gut gelegen. Hat nicht weit für überall hin. The Houseowners are really helpful and nice. We got exactly what we expected and what we booked. We stayed 2 weeks in that house and had a beautiful, fun, adventurous and relaxing time. The house is easy to reach with a car, and you get around really well
The house was beautiful with many amenities and space. The view is breath taking. This Villa will not disappoint.
Tout correspondait au descriptif. je signale toutefois un inconvenient qui se situe sur la terrasse salon de jardin, il y a une toute petite marche de couleur grise qui nous a presque tous surpris, plusieurs sont tombés et pour ma part le vendredi soir avant notre depart le samedi je suis tombee en rangeant les bains de soleil et me suis fait tres tres mal à la clavicule. vou s devriez mettre de la couleur car elle est de la meme couleur que le sol et c'est plutot traite.
This location is Amazing! We visit again! The Pool is great! The bedrooms are perfrekt! The next Supermarked is 5 minutes away. Everything you need is there! You have to see it with your own eyes. This location is highly recommended. Alexander Floeren
Beautiful view, good communication, nice equipment. We really enjoyed our stay.
We had a weeks holiday in this fab villa. Four adults and a 20 month baby and it was the perfect set up for us all. Plenty of space for our daughter to play and a lovely terrace where we had breakfast every morning, overlooking Funchal. The infinity pool was a huge hit with us all! The location is also great too. Lovely little shop close by for basic essentials with a bigger supermarket not that far away either. There are plenty of cafes locally if you didn't wish to go into central Funchal. There a bus stop round the corner which takes you into Funchal centre or you can take a bus the other way, up to a fab view point. The check in and check out, could not have been more straight forward and the recommendations offered in the welcome pack were greatly appreciated. Fab week away and I know that we will be back!
Kunde inte varit bättre!
Very nice house with amazing views
A beautiful property with a stunning view over Funchal and the sea beyond. Close to a great restaurant, view point and small supermarket. Plenty of out-door seating and very comfortable well equipped interior
Huge house. Great views. Lovely staff to meet and greet. Pool temperatures were as expected and paid for. We were just 3 people but house would be great for a family of up to 8. However, suggest may not be perfect for very young children as some risks as house is in a lovely elevated position
A stylish villa with stunning views. We loved all the outdoor space and enjoyed breakfasts on the patio with the sea views every day. We were a group of 8 and it was perfect for us. The villa agents were helpful both before and during our stay.
Die Villa ist sehr schön und großzügig für 8 Personen eingerichtet , Pool hätte etwas wärmer sein können
Luxurious villa with brilliant pool and games room. Highly recommended. Beautiful views. Clean and spacious
You can expect a spacious, clean and well equiped villa. The checkin works without problems and very uncomplicated. You have a great view over the town of Funchal, while still being close to the highway and therefore to the rest of the island.
beautiful, modern, spacious, glorius view of the harbor. A little better supplied kitchen would have made it perfect (spices, paper towels, garbage bags.)
We loved the villa and appreciated all the extra things that were there, like the exceptionally well equipped kitchen , the size of the beds and the overall quality of everything present. It was a rare occasion that we didn't have a car but it was unnecessary as the buses were frequent and the taxis cheap, It was a first trip to Madeira for the 6 of us and I'm sure we will go back, it certainly was a holiday to remember. We absolutely loved the island.
Idealer Ort zum Wohlfühlen und entspannen. Großzügiges geschmackvoll gestaltetes Haus mit gemütlichen Wohn-, Fernseh- und Esszimmer. Super Terrasse mit Pool. Sensationelle Sicht auf Stadt und Hafen von der Terrasse und allen Zimmern. Der sehr schöne Garten ist in Stufen angelegt. Alles ist sehr sauber und gepflegt. Freundlicher Service. Wir würden das Objekt jederzeit weiter empfehlen. Ausflugsziele, Restaurants und Shoppingcenter sind mit dem Auto schnell erreichbar. Wir hatten einen perfekten Urlaub!
Fabulous villa with fantastic view! Perfect location! All the necessary luxuries for an unforgettable vacation! A dream come true!
