Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in Praia Formosa

Very nice, comfortable and modern apartment with amazing view on the Ocean and big swimming pool, jacuzzi and gym! Very close to the beach, shops and restaurants.

I think this is one of the best scenic app on the island. I have not seen such spectacular sunsets anywhere. The pool is perfect for swimming after tours. There is also a gym, overlooking the ocean that my husband used. The only thing to know is that it's a good idea to bring earplugs because a garbage truck arrives across from the bedroom quite early in the morning. But that shouldn't discourage you from booking. Graca is also a flexible host and allowed us to stay 4 hours longer because we had a late evening flight. Thank you!

Great host, great location, exactly as described in the listing.

Lovely stay, great recommendations from host.

Monika’s apartment was a gem! The ocean and city view is spectacular. It was special to watch the sunrise and the city lights from the comfort of the apartment. It was very clean, bright, spacious and nicely furnished. It looks like the pictures. There are bakeries, corner store and fruit store in walkable distance. A large grocery store is only a few minutes drive. It was a good walk down the hill to the port and historic district and an easy bus ride back. It has a dedicated underground parking spot which required some maneuvering to get into with our small car. Monika was very helpful and quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again.

Great host, responded quickly to all queries both before and during stay. Met us in evening even with a late flight and explained everything. Great location on edge of Funchal. Would stay again.

The apartment met all expectations. Furniture good, beds good. Bed linen is also fine. Towels and toilet paper are amply provided. We were able to park the car in the garage under the building. The parking space is very tight but street parking is actually not possible so recommended despite the tightness. We had a seat Ibiza with an inch or 2 space on each side. The coffee maker made it, but within half an hour we got a new, really toppie. Restaurants a 100 meters walk and a nice harbor, supermarket also a 150 meters away so close. We have enjoyed it!

Diana’s place was beautiful and pristine. Lots of room for 3 people and an amazing terrasse on the rooftop. Close to everything. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend if you go to Camara de Lobos ❤️

Perfect apartment for our family of three: spacious, modern, stunning sea views and a great location with easy access to Funchal and plenty of amenities within easy walking distance. Shaker was an excellent host who was quick to respond and went above and beyond by arranging to have my handbag driven to the airport when realised I had left it in the apartment. We had a wonderful stay at Madeira Palace and would definitely stay here again.

Nice appartment in funchal with swimming pool and parking. We enjoyed staying at this appartment for a few days and kids loved the pool and the available board games. The beds were confortable and the appartment was well equipped.

Amazing stay, great view, nice balcony, extremely clean. Pools and gym are definitely a plus. Kitchen was well equipped. Parking is a little tight but doable. Mariana was a fantastic host, very responsive and gave us great food recommendations!

Great stay at Decio's. The apartment was great, and ideally placed to discover the 4 corners of the island. Free parking is available a few streets above. Decio is very responsive and friendly. Thanks again

The apartment was great. A lovely designed living-room and a big balcony with an awesome ocean-few. The village is a good spot to calm down after some island adventures, with a lot of offers like spa and something like that. Can fully recommend the apartment for a stay at Madeira. Definitely will come back soon.

I stayed for 3 nights with my friend for the second leg of our 6 days trip. The town centre location is super convenient. The apartment felt spacious for two of us. It was super clean and well equipped. WiFi worked well without any complications. Shower had good water pressure. We both had peaceful nights, I wasn't aware of any outside noises. There is a plaza with a big food supermarket just 2 minutes away which is open till 10pm most of the time. Adriana, the host, was very helpful, she let us check in much earlier and check out much later than advertised. We didn't meet her in person, but it was clear through the messages that she's a very friendly and helpful host. I would be more than happy to stay there again.

We were extremely comfortable and thought the location was perfect walkable to restaurants, grocery store, deus store and some shopping. Close to attractions in city.

The owner is very nice lady and communication with her was easy and clear. She offers all stuff you need for comfortable accommodation. The hostess is a nice woman, easily found a common language. Upon arrival, she was waiting for us in the apartment, she showed us everything, told us everything, exchanged Whats app in case of need. So there was no problem with the communication. Only positive emotions.

If you like the photos, you’ll love this place. Peaceful and easily accessible to the quaint village, Ribeira Brava. Clean, comfortable home.

Katharina was an excellent host. While the house was close to downtown and had all the amenities we needed, what we like even more was how incredibly responsive she was to our messages and how accommodating and understanding she is. When we had to do a late checkout she accommodated us which was very helpful for us. I would strongly recommend any property hosted by Katharina.

The pool, garden and view is worth it alone in my opinion. The location was exactly what we were looking for as its 15 minute drive into Funchal and 25 minute drive to the airport. The Villa itself is exactly as advertised in the photos and in some cases I don't feel you can appreciate it fully via the photo's. The amenities in the kitchen were brilliant and suitable for large groups.

We stayed in this place for a week. The elevated location offers an enviable view. The house is beautiful and has everything you need to also spend time there to relax between excursions. We also used the pool that can be heated upon request. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious, and the kitchen is fully equipped. Given the late check-in, the host made us find a basket with local products so we could dine when we arrived.

I choose this property because of it being in a residential area. The apartment is equipped with everything that anybody cpuld possible need for a short or long stay. it was very clean. with two outdoor seating areas. Tbere is an excellent shopping centre about 10 mins walk away. with fish/meat vegatables and a supermarket. Buses can be taken from there (Penteada) to down town Funchal. but the schedule is rather erratic and difficult to work out when the bus will come. The buses leaving from the centre to go up were never on time acvording to the schedule. it is easy to get a bus to Monte from here.

Great place. We really enjoyed our stay!

The house is set in a stunning location with beautiful surroundings and scenery. The views from both the porch and the main bedroom were breathtaking, and the ocean view from the swimming pool was especially enjoyable. I would highly recommend this property to families or groups of friends planning a visit to Madeira. Thanks Joao

We had a great six days at the villa. This was not a cheap option but you get what you pay for: an excellent, modern villa with lots of space and very well furnished and equipped. The location is great in a quiet neighbourhood, elevated with fantastic views over the port, the sea and the city, but also a short drive to the main road, so well connected for the rest of the island. We had an issue with hot water at one point but this was quickly fixed. No hesitation in recommending this property. We hesitated over paying to get the pool heated, but very glad we did so. We spent a lot of time in it and wouldn't have it hadn't been heated.
