Casa Branca Apartments by Wanderlust Madeira, vacation rentals

Value for money, location, private parking.

Great position, facilities like washing machine, coffee maker were handy. Quiet. Nice pool to. Secure entry and nice pub next door.

Pack of umbrellas by the pool was a shame, and really missed air con as it was very hot there that week. Otherwise great.

Quiet apartment 806 with sea and city view on 8th floor. 2 elevators available. Building and apartment spotless. On arrival there was a small bottle of water, tea/coffee sachets, toilet rolls, wash up liquid and some washing machine tablets to get started. Quiet pool and sun terrace with sun loungers and very clean poolside toilets. Great location in Lido tourist area beside restaurants and bars. One small bar is right next door to property. Just a short walk to coast. Bus and taxi options close by for access to Funchal city with lovely old town area. Aporoximate 10 minute journey depending on traffic.

Access to toilet in one bed apartment is through the bedroom. No air conditioning, just one plug-in fan provided. No umbrellas for shade on sun terrace. For guests whose apartment is located on the side of the building adjacent to pub this can be noisy as pub open late until 1am or 2am. No front desk or concierge service on site as listed on booking.com

Really good location. Beautiful views of the sea. Close to the lido, nice walks nearby, and lots of restaurants and amenities around the apartment, even if it was quite touristy. Very clean and tidy apartment.

The apartment only had the most basic furniture and decor. It could really do with more attention to detail and investment to make it better accommodation for more than a night or two. After a few days we were tired of being there and wanted some of the comforts of home.
