Vila Rostrum stands at the end of a cul-de-sac on the western outskirts of Funchal. Its elevated position on a steep hillside grants it spectacular views over the whole of the Funchal amphitheatre, but the setting need be no impediment to guests with walking difficulties, as one of the luxuries provided is a private lift, whisking you up from the street level entrance hall to the main accommodation level some 20feet above.
One of the advantages of Vila Rostrum is that smaller parties can rent part of the house, thus enjoying the exclusive use of its splendid facilities without having to pay superfluous bedrooms. The ground floor of the villa sleeps 2-3 people, and comprises a spacious living-dining room, an extremely well equipped open plan kitchen, a bedroom with electronically adjustable adjoining twin beds, a small TV room with a sofa bed for a third person, a bathroom with bathtub and separate shower cubicle and an additional cloakroom.
For parties of up to 6 people, the door to the hallway leading upstairs is unlocked, giving you access to two further bedrooms and another full bathroom. The whole property benefits from central heating.
 

The panoramic views from the terraces and garden area that adjoin the lounge are truly breathtaking, and the private swimming pool has been designed to appear suspended above the town and the ocean. Furniture for dining alfresco is provided on the covered terrace, and there’s a poolside WC, changing rooms and utility room. 

Although Vila Rostrum is set away from the town centre, a hire car is not essential here, as a frequent bus service stops just 300 meters or so from the villa. A couple of local restaurants and simple shops are within walking distance, whilst the near by Madeira Shopping Centre boasts a huge supermarket for stocking up on groceries and fresh produce, as well as numerous boutiques and a multi-screen cinema. Then again who needs the silver screen, when the nighttime views from your terrace across the city are so mesmerising?
