The Rooftop Studio is one of Funchal's most distinctive short-term rentals: a self-contained studio apartment with access to a private rooftop terrace with panoramic views across the city and out to sea. It's in the heart of Funchal's old town — walking distance from restaurants, the marina, and the famous Mercado dos Lavradores.
What makes the Rooftop Studio special?
The private rooftop is the headline feature. Most Funchal apartments offer a small balcony with a partial view. Here you have a proper roof terrace — enough space for chairs and a small table — with views in multiple directions. Sunrise over the eastern hills, sunset over the Atlantic, and the city below glowing at night.

The Funchal old town location
You're in Zona Velha — the old quarter of Funchal, famous for its painted doors, local wine bars, and the authentic fishing village vibe that still survives alongside the tourist infrastructure. The Mercado dos Lavradores (flower and fruit market) is a 5-minute walk. The marina and casino are 10 minutes on foot. The hotel zone is further west — staying here means you're in the part of Funchal that actually has character.
