São Martinho, Funchal
Casa das Raposinhas IV, São Martinho
The short answer
Casa das Raposinhas IV is a two-bedroom apartment in São Martinho, Funchal, sleeping four across two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has a private pool, garden, balcony and free private parking, and suits a small family or two couples wanting their own base near the coast.
Why this one
This is a self-contained apartment with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a private pool and a garden, so four people are not sharing a single bathroom. It has air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a kitchen and free private parking, and it is registered as Alojamento Local under RNAL 164611/AL.
Who it suits
- Four guests using two bedrooms and two bathrooms
- Groups who want a private pool and garden rather than shared facilities
- Travellers arriving by car, given the free private parking
- Guests who want to be within walking distance of the coast at Gorgulho - Praia de Gavinas (8 minutes on foot per the owner)
What is not perfect about it
- The owner listed no drawbacks. We have not stayed here ourselves, and we do not know how steep or easy the access to the apartment is, whether the pool is heated, or how the two bedrooms are configured.
Have we stayed here?
No, not yet. We are saying so rather than implying otherwise. When we do, this line changes and gets a date.
The licence
Registered as Alojamento Local under 164611/AL. You can check that yourself on the RNAL public register before you book. Portuguese law requires a registered let to display this number, and anyone advertising one without it is telling you something.
The pictures
What we have not been told yet. These are open with the owner, and this page says so rather than filling the gaps:
- O acesso ao apartamento é plano ou tem escadas/rampa acentuada?
- A piscina privada é aquecida?
- Como estão distribuídas as camas nos dois quartos (casal, individuais)?
- Quantas pessoas cabem no estacionamento privado?
- A cozinha tem que equipamento (fogão, forno, máquina de lavar loiça, frigorífico)?
- A faixa de preço de 125 a 175 é por noite e em que moeda?
- Qual é o número de contacto ou a página de reservas do proprietário para onde devemos ligar?
That button goes to the owner's own booking page. We do not take the booking, we are not the agent, and we are not paid a commission on it.
