Rent Villa Mode Fantasy Portugal

From the moment you set foot inside the chequered marble foyer of this oh-so-chic and historic apartment building, you know this place is special. Sitting within Funchal’s former School of Fine Arts right in the city’s heart, character and style ooze from every corner.
Inside this studio apartment, period features remain (would you look at those stone archways and wooden shutters), while everywhere else has been given a luxurious and contemporary twist. That marble-clad bathroom will kickstart your day nicely, and there’s a compact but perfectly formed kitchen space to rustle up breakfast and those all-important morning coffees.
When the sea finally comes calling, you’re just a short walk from the waterfront for morning ambles by the marina and lazy afternoons bobbing about the newly renovated, see-and-be-seen lido. When thoughts turn to food, swing by the famous farmer’s market, Mercado dos Lavradores (just a short walk away), to pick up supplies. Or simply lose yourself in the city’s historic centre, Zona Velha, and seek out its authentic restaurants and Fado Bars for atmospheric evenings.
Home truths:
*Parking in Funchal can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot
*Your host owns multiple homes here, so the exact view, layout, furnishings and sleeping arrangements might vary slightly from the photos
*The entrance and lift access to this home is shared with the building’s other residents
*The kitchen is compact and better suited to preparing breakfast and light bites
*Your host can provide a cot, high chair and baby bath for free upon request
*You’ll need to bring your own toiletries with you to use during your stay
*This home is in a central spot, so some noise is to be expected – light sleepers may want to pack earplugs
