About this villa rental

The very best views of Funchal from the harbour to the mountains from the lounge, kitchen and all 3 bedrooms. Modern luxury villa with heated infinity pool. 10 minutes walk (less than 5 minutes by car, taxi, bus) to the historic old town, town centre and seafront.

Just imagine relaxing by your private pool with a cold drink watching the cruise liners arriving in the harbour, or dining at night gazing upon a golden Madeirian sunset, and later the beautiful twinkling lights of Funchal spread out before you. The house stands immediately above a lovely area of fruit trees including bananas, grapes, mangos, and figs ... a unique green area so near to the town centre. This amazing house comes with everything you need to make your holiday one to remember.

Floor to ceiling sliding glass doors (with electric blinds) to the lounge, kitchen and 3 bedrooms give stunning views of Funchal in each room from all angles. There are very few houses in Funchal that give these amazing views from both floors.

We had a wonderful stay at this amazing villa. The host was friendly and helped with anything we needed. The pool was amazing and well worth paying for the heated option as we could swim into the evening. Very near to a great bakery and supermarket. Wonderful views over Madeira and we would love to visit again

I stayed here with two buddies, with the plan to do a bunch of hiking and have a cozy, spacious place to come back to every day, and this fit the bill perfectly. We loved the neighborhood, the view is incredible, the walk down to the city center is easy, and we felt right at home. Highly recommend staying here if you’re in Funchal!

Has everything you can ever need inside. Wanted for nothing. Help/info was given instantly of needed. Nice walk down into the town, steep but nothing a cheap bolt/taxi back up can't handle. Thanks

Inasmuch as Madeira is inarguably paradise under the sun, Villa Santa Maria Maior is paradise under a roof. From the hospitality of John & Vanessa (our flight was delayed and John stayed at the villa till 3am to greet us and give us a warm welcome) to the house itself - everything was absolutely perfect. Clean, modern, perfect layout and breathtaking views.

This was our fourth time in Funchal and the property was one of the best we have stayed in. Comfortable and the views are simply stunning. The walk to and from the centre is not for the feint hearted, or unfit, but meant we felt less guilty about all the wonderful food and wine we consumed. Vanessa looked after as very well and she is a real asset. We hope to return!!

We recently stayed at Santa Maria Maior in Funchal! This property has it all—great views of the city, an outdoor bar and pool area, big bedrooms and bathrooms, a washer and dryer—and a nice kitchen and large living area. We walked downtown many times-and enjoyed hanging out in the pool. The house even has a cozy outdoor library and reading nook! I highly recommend this property!

Fabulous house and location

We stayed for 19 days and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The views are stunning and the pool refreshing. The house has everything you need both indoors and out. The walk into town is down VERY steep roads, some with no pavements, which can be a bit unnerving, but we always took a taxi back (around 5 euros). John is very responsive and Maria did a good check in for us. We miss it already
