About this property
Casa do Poço III: Villa with a Pool and Breathtaking Views
Located in a quiet area of Funchal, at an altitude of approximately 250 metres, the house is a typical Madeiran house dating from 1927, decorated by a famous Portuguese architect, where local character blends with colonial and modern architecture, punctuated with beautiful design details. UNFORTUNATELY, WE DO NOT ACCEPT CHILDREN UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE. In addition to the tastefully decorated house, you will find everything you need for a peaceful and comfortable stay. This accommodation is based in a former couscous factory, at the time the only one on the island, and precious objects and utensils used for its manufacture are still intact. The different outdoor areas of the property, although shared with two other bungalows, allow for complete privacy, whether in the lush garden of palm trees and tropical plants, or on one of the terraces overlooking the sea and simultaneously the mountains. From the generous 12x6 metre pool, you can see the magnificent bay of Funchal and the deep blue ocean, bathed in the unforgettable Madeira sunshine.
With a privileged view over Funchal, the property makes it one of the most beautiful places to watch the famous New Year's Eve fireworks, or simply the sunset over the magnificent bay of Funchal. In the second week of August, it's party time; the area comes alive with a big festival, live music, and kiosks selling snacks and drinks (not advisable to book at this time for those who dislike nighttime noise).
Within a short distance, there is a restaurant, snack bar, bakery, cafes, supermarkets, market, pharmacy, bank, and post office.
If you prefer to dine at home, you can choose between the spacious outdoor barbecue area or the fully equipped kitchen. You can even hire a chef!
The bus stop is 20 metres away and the city centre is a 5-minute drive. Taxis are nearby, or if you prefer, we can help you rent a car.
If you wish to explore the island, Maison de Puits is ideally located for exploring by car, taxi, or bus. The second half of August is usually very lively with the São Roque festivities, featuring a traditional fair, live music, and lots of fun (not recommended for those sensitive to noise).

Nice house, great view, fantastic roof terace and swimming pool
All what you see on the pictures is there, great BBQ and pool with fantastic view over Funchal city and the sea. Very helpful owner, all clean and well looked after. Bar local meat restaurant just around the corner. Max 10 min drive ftom city center. Sleeps well on sofa bed 2-4 adults can sleep here; enjoyable big terace om the roof !
Including bath and swimming towels, very nice.
Enjoyed it very much !
We hebben een fijne vakantie beleefd op deze locatie. De eigenaar was vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Mooie lokale locatie. Wat verder weg van hotelblokkengedeelte. Fantastische tijd gehad.
Charmante location meublée avec goût et bien équipée. Excellents contacts avec les propriétaires. Vue sur la ville à couper le souffle. Super expérience !
Séjour de 12 jours dans le même hébergement. Possibilité de découvrir toute l'île à partir de Funchal. Gite bien situé dans Funchal avec accès simple à la voie rapide. Possibilité de se garer devant le gîte. Attention route passante ! Belle terrasse avec vue sur la baie mais pas directement accessible du gîte. Propriétaire sympathique et discret parlant bien le français. Très belle piscine.
La propriété est divisée en 4 : la maison du propriétaire et une autre divisée en 3 appartements.
Le nôtre - une ancienne fabrique de couscous - ne possédait aucune fenêtre ce qui le rend sombre et un peu oppressant.
Une porte donne directement sur la rue et une autre sur le jardin.
L’appartement est bizarrement conçu : il faut passer par la chambre pour aller de la cuisine à la salle à manger.
Appréciable : une belle terrasse attenante à la maison en haut d’un petit escalier et accès possible à la piscine de la propriété.
A comunicação com a Isabel e o Luiz foi excelente e ambos são muito simpáticos. A D. Fátima (governanta) também foi muito simpática e acolhedora.
Todo o espaço (interior e exterior) estava limpo e vivemos bons momentos de descanso, relaxamento e diversão.
