Guestbook comments from the owner
We loved the apartment thanks, so comfortable and modern and perfect for the bus/walks/shops etc. Had great weather all week, one or two day were a bit air/breeze less so were loving the big fan!
Really liked Funchal too... ate some great food.We also did tour of the East and the walls along the front you recommended a few times and saw a concert in the park in the town. A nice relaxing holiday and we'd love to come back again sometime. Thanks again for the welcome and all the info and for having everything we'd ever need in the apartment! Kind Regards. Ramsey.

Exceptional!

Absolutely Fabulous
Having read all the reviews we were delighted to find every one was spot on. Rosemarie arranged for the taxi to meet us at the airport, welcomed us to the apartment and left an assortment of goodies. As other reviewers have noted, the apartment is spacious, spotlessly clean and has an extremely comfortable bed.
We had breakfast every morning on the large balcony, which is a sun trap. Sunshade provided if required..........as is everything else you should ever need!
We walked west along the promenade to Camara de Lobos and east to the centre of Funchal. The number 48 bus, which stops just down the road from the apartment, took us to Monte, and the cable car back to Funchal centre was great fun.
Would highly recommend a minibus tour of the west and north of the island. Cabo Girao, the highest cliff skywalk in Europe, was amazing, as were all the other stops we made on the tour.
Goya restaurant was our favourite. We ate there 3 evenings out of 7. The ponchas at Mona Lisa, on the promenade, were quite addictive. Luckily we didn't discover them until the 5th day of our holiday!
Not a day went by when we didn't have coffee, cake or a snack at the bakery across the road. Busy with locals. Always a good sign.
Our first visit to Madeira was wonderful, mainly due to this fabulous apartment. We will return!
Excellent apartment in a great location.
We have been visiting the beautiful island of Madeira for some 14 years, usually making 2 or 3 visits each year and have stayed in a wide variety of hotels and apartments.
This apartment is right up there with the very best.
I don't think we have received a better welcome anywhere.
Owners, Marie & Adrian greeted us at the apartment and also provided an excellent "welcome pack" which meant we could relax immediately without thinking of having to rush to the shops to get essentials.
They also provide a book full of all the information needed for this apartment and also useful information for travel / entertainment. They made themselves available for our entire stay if we had any problems. Pleased to say we didn't need to contact them.
We met a couple of the residents in this block who were very friendly and, more importantly to us, very quiet at night!
Apartment is close to all facilities we needed, main shopping forum is just across the road with good cafes and restaurants nearby.
Highly recommended.
Phil & Sandy
Wonderful apartment
The apartment was perfect.All facilities were excellent and the owner Marie was so helpful and welcoming.It was quiet, with a great balcony and a very good supermarket and food court across the street.I would recommend this apartment for an unforgettable holiday on a very beautiful island
Superb Apartment
My partner and I have just returned from a five week stay in this superb apartment. If you are looking for a holiday rental in Funchal look no further, this is the best of the best.
We were delighted when we arrived to find a spacious, modern, immaculate apartment which is furnished to a very high standard.
The owners, Adrian and Rosemarie, where there to greet us on the day of our arrival and provide us with any relevant information regarding the apartment and local amenities. They also left us a very generous welcome pack which was much appreciated.
The owners have provided everything you could possibly need to make your stay enjoyable. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances and leads onto the balcony where you can sit and have breakfast in the sun or relax later in the day on the sun lounger with a glass of wine, just perfect!
Looking through the patio windows in the lounge you have the most wonderful views of the sun rise and can watch the cruise ships sail into port. On several evenings we watched cruise ships leaving and heading off across the Atlantic, sailing close to the shore line with all their lights on it was quite magical.
Something that is important to us is a good night's sleep, we found the apartment block to be quiet and we slept well on the very comfortable bed.
The public areas in the apartment block are all clean and tidy and the residents friendly and helpful, always ready to hold the door open and wish you a "nice day". For any first time visitor to Madeira I would like to say that Madeira is a good and safe place to be.
The apartment is located close to all amenities; for anyone looking for some retail therapy the Forum Shopping centre is just across the road and has shops for everyone. Within the immediate area there are lots of good quality restaurants and coffee shops, offering fine dining to something more casual.
From the apartment you can enjoy a walk down into Funchal city centre, or in the opposite direction to Camara do Lobos, along the way admiring the landscape and sea view whilst topping up the vitamin D.
We have been frequent visitors to Madeira over many years and wish we had found this apartment before, it is the best apartment we have stayed in and exceeded our expectations in every way, it is wonderful to know you are returning each night to a perfect place and this makes the holiday even better.
We had a fabulous stay and have already booked our return visits for 2017.
Amazing Property, Fantastic Views, Fab Location
We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment. It was clean, light, safe, spacious and had everything that you might need for a great holiday. We especially loved the views of the sea from every room! The living area was great for sitting and watching the boats on the sea and searching for sight of whales! The balcony was great also especially to sit with a glass of wine and a book! The location was brilliant, near to the shops, supermarket, seafront, bus stop into Funchal and the airport. Taxi driver recommended by Rose Marie highly efficient and attentive - we would definitely recommend his services. Finally Rose Marie gave us a fantastic welcome with supplies of milk, eggs and wine in the fridge which was very kind. She was attentive throughout the stay and even helped us out at the end of stay by sending something back to the UK that we had left in the property. All in all a fantastic place, thoroughly recommended for a self catering getaway. We will be back to Apartment Roda Mar.
Excellent, spacious, well equipped apartment!
This was a home from home! This apartment totally lived up to our expectations. It was excellently situated for nearby peace & tranquility through high quality coastal pathway walks! ( Recommend The Magic Tearoom) yet, within a minute's walk is a high quality shopping mall with supermarket and several excellent reastaurant said! Our favourite was O' Classico!
The apartment has comfortable bed, immaculately clean, & tastefully furnished. There are plenty books, cd,s & dvd's if by any chance there is a wet day.
We cannot recommend highly enough.
It was lovely to be welcomed by the owner Marie!
