Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Praia Formosa

It’s not often that you find accommodation that ticks all the boxes particularly when travelling with a large group. My family absolutely loved our stay here during our visit to Madeira. The Airbnb was luxurious and provided a relaxing environment while being close to great restaurants, beaches / pools and shops. Each bedroom was spacious, en-suite and with a sea view over the Atlantic. The apartment in general had everything you could think of to make our stay feel as homely and comfortable as possible. Having access to a 3 car private garage allowed hassle free travel anywhere around the island and was a real plus for my elder grandparents and the babies and toddlers in our group. A big thank you to our attentive Airbnb host for an absolutely memorable stay. We will be back!

Worth the price! Has many amenities and beautiful view from the pool and balcony! Would stay here again. Very clean and spotless. 10/10. And response time is great and helpful!

Amazing oceanside view and spacious apartment to spread out in. Private parking garage was perfect for the rental car.

great view over the ocean. Really loved our stay.

Great place, would recommend it!

Beautiful apartment, well quipped. Super views and excellent hosts. Couldn’t have wished for more. Go!

If you like urban comfort in a brand new property with a beautiful ocean view, this is a great place. Great starting point for trips to other parts of the island. Secure parking in the underground garage in private parking spaces. Large apartment, tastefully and luxuriously furnished in a guarded area of apartment houses. In my opinion, it comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests - each room has its own bathroom with a toilet. You have access to the relaxation zone in the garden of the apartment house, where there is a swimming pool overlooking the ocean, sun loungers, fitness. A few meters from the house there is all the essential amenities - a large supermarket, shops, a café with a bakery... The host responded to our communication extremely quickly, politely and friendly. Everything worked. He was willing to accommodate our arrival and departure time requirements, even outside of official times. Overall, a very pleasant stay in an excellent apartment with a professionally communicating and helpful host. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you next time!

This location is perfect - the balcony provides are a picture-perfect view of the bay, along with spectacular sunset views. The accommodations are clean with a very nice layout. The kitchen is well-equipped - just like home. There is everything you need within walking distance - restaurants, shops, ATMs, bakeries and easy access to the local seaside promenade.

Nice appartment in funchal with swimming pool and parking. We enjoyed staying at this appartment for a few days and kids loved the pool and the available board games. The beds were confortable and the appartment was well equipped.

The best host I have ever stayed with through airbnb. Lionel and Carla are super, super hosts!! The property is immaculate, very spacious and on a superbly situated development. The beds were super comfy, great black out blinds too. There are many fabulous local restaurants nearby or you can easily hop onto a bus just outside of the apartment block to Funchal. Lionel and Carla really go the extra mile! If you require any help or information the response time is immediate! Thank you for making our stay in Maderia so perfect! We will be back!

Lovely clean and functional apartment. Really relaxing within easy reach of supermarkets, shopping centres and restaurants. I was mountain biking and there were no issues with my bike being in the lifts or anything (maybe a few funny looks) but all in all a good place and close to a fabulous coffee shop.

The village is perfectly located for an extended holiday. Anastasia assisted us in planning starting with providing assistance with parking pass, hiking maps all around the island, any silly requests we had at our stay. And her replies where prompt and professional, providing 2 and 3 options for every inquiry we had. We really enjoyed our stay.

Amr was really nice to us, he almost immediately responded to our calls. We had a really nice view to the ocean and the sunset. I recommend this accomodation.

Not only were the views amazing from every room, but the apartment itself is very comfortable, impeccably clean and conveniently located. We loved our stay and would definitely stay again.

Wonderful stay in the apartment facing the ocean and access to the pool and parking spot. Beautiful place and convenient localisation, near the bus stop and supermarket. Thank you Nuno!

The owner is very nice lady and communication with her was easy and clear. She offers all stuff you need for comfortable accommodation. The hostess is a nice woman, easily found a common language. Upon arrival, she was waiting for us in the apartment, she showed us everything, told us everything, exchanged Whats app in case of need. So there was no problem with the communication. Only positive emotions.

Very nice villa, we and our children enjoyed the space in the house and around the house. Nice garden with artificial grass around the house and good fencing so children could play safely. The house had nice views to the sea. The only downside was the caterpillars that often crawled in under the doors. Because our youngest son is still crawling, this was not so useful. All rooms and bathrooms were super tidy and comfortable to use. Indoor parking of the car in the large garage was also very nice.

Katharina was an excellent host. While the house was close to downtown and had all the amenities we needed, what we like even more was how incredibly responsive she was to our messages and how accommodating and understanding she is. When we had to do a late checkout she accommodated us which was very helpful for us. I would strongly recommend any property hosted by Katharina.

My partner and I stayed at Villa Limoeira with another couple. It was perfect for our group! Breathtaking views, a clean and comfortable home, and excellent local recommendations. Also, there’s a heated swimming pool where you can watch the sun set over the ocean, so that’s pretty awesome. Calheta is a quiet and picturesque area with easy access to many of the best hikes and nature on the island! Would recommend renting a car, but there is a great local restaurant within a 5 minute walk from the villa. Wish we could have stayed there forever. 10/10 would recommend!

Very clean, comfortable and modern villa. Lots of parking spaces, gym, large terraces, lots of bathrooms, beautiful spacious bedrooms, modern and brand new appliances, dishes and other equipment. During our stay, we had only one request - to provide us with a barbecue grill. The owner bought a brand new grill within 8 hours. Everything was very good. We will definitely stay here on our next trip to Madeira. We recommend this accommodation to everyone!!!

We had a great stay with Julio as our host. He communicated very well. The location was incredible and the space was clean. The internet connection was not very strong, but this was not a big deal as we spent most time exploring the island. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Everything was great 😍 Beautiful clean house with amazing view.Very quiet area, privacy. Owner very helpful, good comunication, easy chek-in. Everyting as described in the ad 👌

We had a great six days at the villa. This was not a cheap option but you get what you pay for: an excellent, modern villa with lots of space and very well furnished and equipped. The location is great in a quiet neighbourhood, elevated with fantastic views over the port, the sea and the city, but also a short drive to the main road, so well connected for the rest of the island. We had an issue with hot water at one point but this was quickly fixed. No hesitation in recommending this property. We hesitated over paying to get the pool heated, but very glad we did so. We spent a lot of time in it and wouldn't have it hadn't been heated.

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb. The home was spotless, modern, and exactly as pictured—fully equipped with everything we needed. The pool area and yard were beautifully maintained and perfect for relaxing with a breathtaking view! The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, yet just a five-minute drive to the beach, supermarkets and a great variety of restaurants. You could also walk, though the return trip is a bit steep! Our host was friendly, welcoming, and very responsive, even meeting us on arrival with delicious pastries—a lovely touch. We absolutely loved the view, loved the space, and would return in a heartbeat.
