Flora and fauna
Isolated from other land-masses, the Madeiran islands are botanically rich and diverse, and the rugged and beautiful landscape embraces a broad range of habitats. Madeira has one of the best preserved vegetation of Macaronesia. There are more than 150 endemic species (plants grown only on Madeira). So be prepared for the feast on lush greens, towering trees and exotic plants.
The waters of Madeira are a haven for marine mammals. The most famous is the monk seal, also known as wolffish. Dolphins of various species evolve here as much as 18 kinds of whales can be seen in these waters. There are many birds that breed on Madeira island. There are three native species: Madeira Firecrest, Zino's Petrel and the Trocaz Pigeon.
Social ecosystem
In a distance of 15 min drive from the accommodation, you will find a digital nomads hot spot - Ponta Do Sol, a digital nomads village.
The accommodation is located 5-minute drive from the nearest beach. Many restaurants, bars and shops can be found in the capital city Funchal, which is around 22-minute drive away. There are plenty of reasons to make the trip there, from the photo-friendly views to the Monte Palace Tropical Garden or the Church where Emperor Charles I is buried.
Madeira is becoming a very hot spot for digital nomads. Recently created Digital Nomad Village (with a partnership of Madeira's government) puts it on the spotlight as a destination definitely worth considering.
If you're a fan of the breathtaking views, consider visiting Cabo Girão Skywalk (17 min drive).
Another spot worth visiting is located in the middle of the island, between mountains. The Valley of the Nuns, Curral des Freiras, is quite isolated from the rest of the island, and back in the days it was almost inaccessible. That isolation wasn't accidental - it was a place for the islands’ nuns who sought refuge from the pirates, keeping the convents’ treasures safe.

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on Flatio must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without Flatio is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on Flatio.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On Flatio, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
