Located a few walking minutes from the Old Town and the centre of Funchal, Quinta Esperança, a traditional house in Funchal used to be an Hotel in the past 1920s. It offers you quietness, calm and a peaceful holiday.
With beautiful gardens, lots of fruit trees (bananas, avocates, mangos,figos) and local plants, you can enjoy the typical Madeira environment in a traditional Quinta.
ORCHID is an open plan placed up on the top floor of the building. It is beautifully decorated, very private and enjoys a magnificent view over the harbor and the whole city of Funchal. It is accessed only by some spiral exterior stairs, so make sure you are well fitted to get up there through several steps with luggage.
Inside, you will find a large apartment (open space) with bedroom area , loundge, en-suite bathroom with modern glass windows, a fully equipped kitchinet and a fantastic private balcony for your meals out while enjoying the view.
Orchid is the only apartment located upstairs by the terrace but separated with some closed doors, so totally private.
At the house on the ground floor we have a few more apartments, so in case Orchid is booked you can stay stay in one of the others, connecting directly to the gardens. They are all very nice, comfortable and well equipped as Orchid is. They all enjoy view over the sea and gardens and a lot of privacy.
The pool is open all the year round and during all day.
Parking is free on the road, right in front of the property. Bus stop is just there by our gate for your comfort. Walking down the road is very easy but due to steep roads, coming back better to take a bus or a taxi which is around 5€.
The best bakery in Funchal is around the corner and also a very nice supermarket with fresh fruits and vegetables produced by locals.
Orchid and Quinta Esperança for sure is an amazing place for unique holidays, just book it and enjoy.
