Queimada Houses is set in the Zona Velha — Funchal's old town — a pedestrian neighbourhood of cobbled basalt lanes, azulejo-tiled churches and centuries-old wine lodges that now double as wine bars and restaurants. The area is famous for the Painted Doors Project: 200+ ornately painted house doors by artists from across the world, turning every alley into an open-air gallery.
Within a 5-minute walk you'll find the iconic São Tiago Fort (dating from 1614), the historic Lido Pools area, and the ferry terminal for day trips to Porto Santo. The Old Town comes alive at night — the strip of restaurants and bars along Rua de Santa Maria is one of the most atmospheric dining streets on the island, with local catches, Madeiran poncha and live folk music on weekend evenings.
The Funchal Cathedral and the town centre are a gentle 10-minute walk west along the seafront promenade. A taxi or Uber to the cable car station for Monte takes under 5 minutes. This is the beating cultural heart of Funchal — staying here means being in the middle of everything the city has to offer.
Security deposit of €100 (cash) is collected at check-in and fully refunded within 7 days if no damage is found. Property licence: 46073/AL.
Rua Queimada de Baixo, n°9, 9000-068 Funchal, Madeira — in the pedestrian old town, steps from the Cathedral and harbour.
