Refurbished to an extremely high level to include air conditioning, under-floor heating and a heated pool, this traditional Madeira house is set in an elevated position with panoramic views of Funchal and ocean.

The master bedroom has an en suite shower-room and the other bedrooms share the family shower-room.
The whole frontage is the south facing solarium where you will find the heated infinity pool and sun-beds and the covered built-in barbecue and outdoor dining table, which overlook the wide garden below. Being only 500 metres below the leafy village of Monte, Vila da Portada is perfectly located to combine a holiday in Funchal with being close to nature and walking in Madeira.

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
L'île de Madère est une de nos destinations préférées et ce logement a répondu totalement à nos attentes
Very comfortable house. Well equipped (dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, towels, vacuum cleaner, …). Pool was warmer than expected (> 27 C in July). Lot of shadow and sunny places. Beautiful view. Friendly and fast contact.
Fantastisk utsikt, hjälpsam personal, bra läge.
Sehr schönes Airbnb, alles so wie auf den Fotos zu sehen. Kontakt mit Gastgebern sehr gut, Check-In/Check-Out lief reibungslos und bei Problemen wurde sofort geholfen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
We had a lovely stay at Vila da Portada. The house was modern, clean and spacious - just as pictured. There is an amazing view of Funchal below and of the sea which we loved looking out on. The terrace area is a great space to sit and the pool is a bonus! It was a good base for venturing out on hikes as many can be found within a 30 minute drive. All communication was good and check in/out was easy. Thanks for having us!
This villa has everything you need. Good wifi, Dishwasher, Washing machine fresh coffee maker, Big TV. Heated pool and lots. The meet and greet by Norberta and the guys was really good. Giving you the chance to ask all the questions you might have on arrival at the Villa. There is a bus stop just 30m from the gate which runs about every hours and takes you into Funchall. There is also a local bar just 100meters or so along the road ( which is well used by the locals which is always a good sign in my eyes) The most important question... Would we go back and stay in the villa... 100% YES!!!!!
This property is nothing short of amazing. From the beautifull views, to the clean pool and nice pateo with sofas. The decor is something out of a magazine. There is TV in every room. I'm very picky about matresses and these were incredible. Really good night's rest. The kitchen is well equiped with every utensil you might need to cook. There is also a barbecue outside. Everything was spotlessly clean when we arrived and they even included a bag of bread, cheese, butter, strawberry marmelade, a bottle of water, milk and a really nice bottle of wine, a Nice welcome touch. It has a PS4 for the kids. There is parking space inside, the gate is automatic with a remote control. I would definetly recomend all my friends to book this property. When I'm back in Madeira I will definetly book this again.
Czysta nieduża willa z podgrzewanym basenem z widokiem na całe miasto i ocean w oddali.
The villa is in a great location, just a few minutes by car to Funchal centre and all the main roads to get around the island. There's a big supermarket, Continente, for all the essentials within 5 mins. The views are amazing! The house itself is modern, spacious, well equipped, and very secure. Highly recommended
Beautiful Villa!
Magnificent location with views over Funchal to harbour.Well equipped with large garden,lots of outdoor seating and a lovely pool. Bus stop near villa gate with regular service to Babosas and Funchal. A bar,also serving good local food within walking distance so a car not essential
A casa é ótima e tem uma vista magnifica;-) Exatamente como nas fotografias é mesmo um verdadeiro spot para usufruir de umas boas férias na Madeira. É muito bem equipada e tem tudo o que é preciso para se passarem uns bons e agradáveis dias. Não posso esquecer de referir que estava tudo muito limpo. Sem duvida alguma recomendo a todos os que queiram ir visitar só basta conseguirem arranjar disponibilidade;-) Muito obrigada!!!
We loved our time at Vila da Portada. The hosts were very communicative and easy to deal with. The premises were very clean and we were very impressed with how the property stayed very clean during our visit, even with the indoor/outdoor flow of the house. The landscaping is very well done and the herb garden was such a lovely surprising touch. The bedrooms were very comfortable, just the right size with the amount of storage necessary to unpack for our stay. It's very easy to drive down to town to the big Pingo Doce supermarket to stock up for the week and/or the restaurants in town. The location of the villa is on a hill above town and not walking distance to many restaurants etc, but the views, peace and quiet are very worthwhile. Getting into town with a car, taxi or Uber is very quick and easy. Thanks so much for a lovely stay in Madeira, we can't wait to come back!
Belle villa avec de très bonnes prestations ! Vue magnifique sur Funchal ! Parfait
Das Haus war echt super modern Eingerichtet es hat an nichts gefehlt. Die Aussicht zum Hafen war genial. Madeira ist eine wunder schöne Insel und da war ich nicht das letzte mal.
Ich kann einen Aufenthalt in der Vila da Portada wirklich nur jedem weiter empfehlen. Wir haben die Unterkunft in einem sehr gepflegten und sauberen Zustand vorgefunden. Es war alles vor Ort was man für den täglichen Alltag so benötigt. Ein Auto ist mit Sicherheit von Vorteil ☝ es sei denn man nimmt in Kauf mit dem Bus zu fahren ♀️. Vor allem aber auch die tolle Betreuung durch Noberta (Organisation des Mietwagens, Abholung vom und zum Flughafen, Essenstipps etc) soll auf diesem Weg ebenfalls noch erwähnt werden. Auch ein Grund dafür, dass wir auf jeden Fall wieder kommen
erstlkassiger Ausblick, besser als im Exposee beschrieben, Zufahrt jedoch für Fahranfänger mit Vorsicht zu genießen, alles Weitere angenehm und erfreulich, wie aus dem Exposee zu erwarten.
Man findet tatsächlich genau so ein tolles Haus vor, wie es die Bilder und die Beschreibung versprechen. Innen wie außen. Alles da, alles ordentlich, alles sauber. Die Lage am Berg in 400 Metern Höhe ermöglicht diesen grandiosen Blick über Funchal und die See. Die gesamte Abwicklung über "Our Madeira" war von Anfang bis Ende überdurchschnittlich gut. Großes Lob an Norberta und Carolina! Nachfolgender Punkt sollte einem jedoch bewusst sein: das Haus liegt nicht in einer verschlafenen Sackgasse, sondern an einer gering frequentierten Funchaler Straße, die in einer Kurve um das Grundstück herum führt. Es gibt Bus- und auch LKW-Verkehr. Außerdem wird zu den normalen Geräuschen des Straßenverkehrs auch mal gehupt. Im Haus ist es bei geschlossenen Fenstern absolut still. Die beste eigene Einschätzung kann man sich mittels Google Maps (Satelliten Sicht) und Google Street View verschaffen. Ich kann das Haus auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen und würde es auch selbst wieder buchen.
Die Unterkunft war top ausgestattet, alles sehr neu. Lage und Anbindung zum Busnetz war super. Pollheizung hat sich gelohnt.
Sehr schöne und hochwertige Ausstattung. Tolle Lage. Der Aufenthalt hat uns komplett entspannt. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Rent o snyggt i huset, fanns allt som man behöver, underbar utsikt över funchal och havet, gott om sittplatser ute och en underbar pool, vill gärna bo här igen när vi kommer tillbaks till madeira.
Modern and spotlessly clean villa with stunning views over Funchal. Excellent, very spacious and well equipped pool area, with heating of the pool a recommended option. The villa is very well maintained and the owner has continued to develop the property, adding a small terrace to the existing pool area. The villa is well located for visiting Funchal and Monte, but a car is recommended. Public transport is possible, as there are nearby bus stops. We experienced excellent service from Our Madeira before arrival and during the holiday. This was our second visit to the villa, which did not disappoint.
Sehr schönes Haus, sehr modern und komfortabel eingerichtet. Der Pool, die Sonnenliegen und besonders der Blick auf Funchal laden sehr zum Verweilen ein. Das Willkommenspaket, bestehend aus Marmelade und Brötchen, ist sehr aufmerksam. Wie überall in Funchal braucht man jedoch ein Auto, die Villa liegt im Hang von Monte, und sogar der Gang zum Bäcker (ca. 15 Minuten) auf einer sehr steil abfallenden Straße ist schwierig und für Knei und Füße eine Tortur. Die Betten empfanden wir als etwas hart.
Alles war wie so schön wie auf der Website abgebildet und beschrieben. Besonders begeistert waren wir von der hochwertigen Bad- und Kücheneinrichtung, den guten Betten / Matratzen, dem Pool und dem hervorragenden Service. Es war der perfekte Standort um mit dem Mietwagen die Insel zu erkunden. Die Restaurantliste haben wir abgearbeitet und können wir nur weiterempfehlen.
Perfekt ausgestattet. Sehr sauber. Stilvoll eingerichtet, Sehr nette hilfsbereite Vermieter. Unkomplizierte Abwicklung. Super Lage über Funchal mit Meeresblick in direkter Nähe zu den Bergen. Autostellplatz auf eigenem Grundstück vorhanden. Alles in allem überdurschnittlich! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Tolle Lage, sehr nette Vermieter, unkomplizierte Abwicklung, perfekte Ausstattung, stilvolle Einrichtung, sehr sauber, Stellplatz auf dem Grundstück
We had a great stay at this beautiful villa. The house was really clean and everything was dealt with in a really professional way. We enjoyed the heated pool even though the weather was not all that warm. We also barbecued quite a lot. The views over Funchal are amazing, much better in real life than in the pictures. Also the location close to Monte is nice. I would definitely recommend this villa!

We had a very relaxing and refreshing stay. The house is at a very high standard, it was spotlessly cleaned and decorated at a beautiful modern, understated interior design. It was wonderful to return from our various trips over the island to this place where we could enjoy the view of the endless ocean by day and the lights of Funchal by night. We felt very well looked after by the agency on arrival and when checking out. - There is a road of medium size going round the property with some traffic on it (a few metres below the level of the property) however we did not feel disturbed by it and the house itself is very well insulated, so during the night it was very quiet. - We also took advantage from the busstop right in front of the property and on two occasions walked uphill to Monte (quite steep, but not longer than 20 minutes), using the little road behind the house. In Monte one then can take the cable car down to Funchal.
Beautiful villa over looking harbour of Funchal fantastic views, modern with a very high spec finish you would want these builders every time superb. 3 bed 2 bath with underfloor heating throughout air con throughout, everything you need really utensils wise kitchen / lounge diner. internet very good WiFi 56mb i took my amazon firestick with me for more tv options, outside good size pool very safe area, outside cold shower, sink, barbecue, outside toilet / wash. 6 sunbeds ratton table & chairs, also large table & chairs for dining, local bus into centre 50 yards away 2 euros last bus back 2330 number 22 both ways, all in all exceptional only slight negative we spent a lot of time at villa just to relax road was a little more noisy than we wanted, & needs a new toaster as rubbish. Norberta very accommodating let us check out few hours later as it was not booked next day big thank you. we will look to book again. Regards Colin & Deb **********
Beliggenheten er fantastisk, med praktfull utsikt over Funchal og utover havet. Bra kollektivtrafikk til Funchal på hverdager med busstopp like ved huset. Flott pool, utekjøkken og hage. Gode senger, deilige bad. Veldig rent og moderne
Sehr schöne und luxuriöse Wohnung. Alles perfekt organisiert. Nur zu empfehlen.
Very well equipped and clean house in a nice location with wide view of Funchal. Carolina was our host and she was very helpful with explaining how we can take the most out of our accommodation and what places we should visit during our stay. Only traffic was sometimes louder in the evening when you sit outside (we did not hear it inside), but I think it would be same in any part of Funchal. We have really enjoyed our holiday at Madeira and the house was a big part of it. Highly recommended :)
Villa avec vue panoramique superbe sur l'océan et la ville de Funchal. Très bien équipée et soignée. Le seul petit problème est qu'elle est située sur une rue où il y a pas mal de trafic. Mais, nous n'y étions pas en journée! A recommander pour tout le reste!
