Sea View Balcony by Homie
Welcome to Sea View Balcony by Homie!
With a privileged view over the sea and located in a calm area, this property is the perfect accommodation for your holidays on the Island of Madeira.
Located in the municipality of Santa Cruz, this modern apartment is situated in the tranquil area of Gaula. With very well-maintained exteriors and a contemporary design, this accommodation encompasses the best of nature and comfort in one.
Inside, the apartment is divided into 2 bedrooms, both with double beds, and they are the chosen spot to rest after a long walk or simply to relax with the sound of the waves.
The bathroom is ideal for 4 people with a spacious walk-in shower so that you can relax and recharge your energy for another day.
The kitchen, fully equipped with the most modern equipment, was designed in an open space, favouring the passage to the dining area. This area is perfect for enjoying a dinner or receiving friends with total safety and comfort that the local accommodation provides.
The common leisure area is also spacious and receives natural light throughout the day as it has direct access to the balcony.
On the outside, the view speaks for itself! Waking up with the sunrise over the sea or enjoying your balcony until sunset will be one of your favourite activities.
When renting a car to better explore Madeira, you can park it in the building's garage with complete convenience and peace of mind.
In the vicinity of the building, you will find the fast road, the main artery to all points of the island. A short distance from your accommodation, you will find the pleasant Village of Santa Cruz with various facilities such as the island's Airport, restaurants, pharmacies, and an inviting promenade along the beach.
The eastern end of the island, the well-known Ponta de São Lourenço in the Caniçal area, is accessible about 10 minutes by car. This is one of the tourist spots that is almost mandatory to visit due to its cliffs demarcated by the sea. The famous Ponta de São Lourenço trail, also known as recommended route number 8, is precisely located here. Besides the landscape, Caniçal is prestigious when it comes to local gastronomy as it is still considered a fishing village today.
It is then one of the best regions of the island to taste the typical limpets, octopus and swordfish.
If you are looking to rest in a quality environment and enjoy an endless view, this is your accommodation!
We guarantee you will have your dream holiday!

Very clean & nicely decorated with good sea view
The unit itself was great ... clean and nice decor with a pleasing view of the sea. Check-in was a little difficult since it was later than preferred (16:30) and had to meet an agent at property to get in. It was also not quite as well equipped as other properties I stayed at ... most notably a standard coffee maker. They had a nice pod coffee maker, but this needed specific pods we didn't have. Also, there was a small 1 cup perculator coffee pot for the stove, which we used, but the one cup capacity made it difficult. The basics for cooking were there ... a few small items such as a small sauce pan would be helpful.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay though! Would certainly recommend the property ... :-)

Die Unterkunft war top, die Abwicklung durch den Gastgeber auch, aber man benötigt einen Leihwagen, und dieser muss klein sein, da die Tiefgarage sehr eng ist. Aber da man sich Madeira ja angucken möchte, braucht man eh ein Auto.Lebensmittel und Gastronomie in der Nähe. Toller meditativer Ausblick vom Balkon auf das Meer.

Traumhaft schön
Die Garage ist nachträglich mit zusätzlichen Säulen ausgestattet worden. Alles daher zu eng. Küchenausstattung fehlte einiges: Kleiner Kochtopf, Sieb, Topflappen und Küchenpapier oder Lappen. Lage am Flughafen in der Landezone ist erträglich. Der Sonnenaufgang ist phantastisch, der Fernseher top, die Betten hart und nicht durchgelegen, top!

Fast perfekt
Eine geräumige, gut und modern eingerichtete, schöne Wohnung, tolle Lage. Es hat auch viele Kleinigkeiten, um die man froh ist, wie z Bsp ein Wäscheständer, eine Bügelbrett...Da nur wenige Flugzeuge starten und landen, hat uns der Lärm nicht gross gestört. Leider hatte es keine Liegestühle und die Matratzen waren für uns viel zu hart. Der Parkplatz in der Garage ist wegen der Wärme toll, leider habe ich wegen der eng stehenden Säulen trotz aller Vorsicht, den Lack des Autos zerkratzt. Alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert:)

Mooi appartement op rustige locatie
Het appartement is in orde en heeft een terras met een prachtig uitzicht. De parking in de garage is moeilijk bereikbaar.
In de onmiddellijke omgeving is er echter niet veel te beleven, maar je hebt sowieso best een huurwagen om Madeira te ontdekken.
