Transparency and simplicity. We are the only operator in the market to offer a single lease agreement for everything.
Guarantee of legal certainty. The lease agreements are in full compliance with the laws of the country where the lease is negotiated via Flatio. No matter whether you stay there for one or twelve months.
Online agreement in your language. The basis is an agreement concluded in the language of the place of the lease, but the agreement is always translated into English and the most frequently used languages. The agreement is always signed online, so you can conclude it wherever you are in the world.
Guarantee of a trustworthy presentation of the apartment. With Flatio, you may rest assured the apartment looks exactly as presented. And if, by any chance, the condition of the apartment does not match the description in the listing, we will refund your full rent and fees and give you 7 days of free hotel rooms.
Comfortable extension. Do you want to stay longer in the apartment? No problem. If the owner confirms the apartment is available for you, you will extend the agreement online. Similarly, an agreement may be terminated with a simple 30-day notice, once again, online.
All-inclusive price. The rent includes all services, including Internet connection and utilities, and it is not charged unless it exceeds 15 % of the rent. This saves you a lot of paperwork at the time of the apartment handover.
Zawsze 30 dni do przodu. Niezależnie od tego, czy wprowadzasz się na początku, czy w połowie miesiąca, płacony czynsz zawsze pokrywa 30 dni, które po nim następują. We Flatio "miesiąc" zaczyna się zawsze w momencie wprowadzenia się i nigdy nie będziesz płacił kilku czynszów w tym samym czasie.
Take photos of the apartment. We recommend that you take photos showing the current condition of the apartment on the first and the last day of the lease and send the pictures to us. The photos, along with a signed handover report, will be of great assistance when dealing with any unpleasant situations we hope will never occur.
You can read the full text of the lease agreement
here. The specific version of the lease agreement that applies to you will be displayed right after your booking is approved and your personal data completed.

The flat was great, I would happily stay there again. The location is convenient, at most a 30-minute walk to anything central, including the ocean. You will need to walk uphill to get back, of course, but that's true of anything in Funchal that isn't right on the water.
The internet speed was about 50 Mbps up and down, with an older WiFi version, but it was steady and I had no issues with it.
There are some small issues around the flat, but I'm not sure they're even worth mentioning. It's not luxury, so if that's what you need you need to look elsewhere, but for a nice, normal, place to stay with everything you need to be comfortable: I'd recommend it without hesitation.
The flat is on one of the large streets that go up the hills through central Funchal. Large grocery stores are a 20-30 minute walk away. You won't find much immediately surrounding the flat, but walk 10-20 minutes down the hill and you'll find everything.
The lighting isn't exactly bright at night, but I never once felt unsafe walking back.
