Grand villa, view to Funchal and sea | Vista Sol

This grand traditional large air-conditioned Madeira villa, located on the eastern hills of Funchal, offers superb sea-views over the town and cruise ship harbour and wonderful sunsets.
Spacious living areas are complemented by a great traditional front veranda where you can have your meals and appreciate those beautiful sea and town views, and, in the evenings, the twinkling lights of Funchal. An added and useful facility is the breakfast room located next to the fully equipped kitchen.
The large swimming pool (optionally heated) and surrounding deck is perfect for families that simply want to frolic around or for those that prefer to swim lengths, and is set amongst the mature lawn and gardens.
Large bedrooms on the 1st floor all lead to a south facing front balcony (again benefitting from those breath-taking views), perfect for a quiet moment or catching the sun. The fourth bedroom and en-suite is independent and located on the lower ground floor.

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 breathtaking natural beauty combine with a thoroughly modern atmosphere.
