Casa do Papagaio Verde

Filomena´s hospitality, she really makes an effort to make you feel at home and welcome. The sea views are inspiring and the garden in bloom is beautiful. The accommodation set into the terraces works well though I was unable to see any of the rooms as they were all occupied. The homemade jams sound delicious!

Located West of Funchal, high up in a peaceful residential area. Rooms enjoy lovely garden & spectacular views of the Atlantic. Clean, tidy, excellent bed, everyone friendly. We wanted a slow, peaceful, easy break in the sun and its what we had. First two nights we pre booked and enjoyed an evening meal on our balcony. Breakfast was there each morning! We used efficient well priced taxis to botanical gardens, restaurants, mini trips etc. A day 4x4 trip to North coast and forest areas was fun. All easier than hiring a car! Enjoyed the opportunity to chat, read & relax. Thanks to everyone.

What a fabulous place this is! Up in the hills to the west of Funchal sits this stylish house surrounded by lush and fragrant gardens. My studio was clean, comfortable and spacious with amazing views of the Atlantic. Lovely breakfast each morning and I also took dinner most evenings - authentic Portugese food cooked beautifully with fruit and vegetables from the garden. The hosts and staff are exceptional and I felt very welcome and content here. Its a one hour walk into central Funchal but the buses were frequent, reliable and great value. I would love to return!
