Welcome to another edition of “Would You Buy It?, where we showcase incredible real estate opportunities on the beautiful island of Madeira. Today, we’re thrilled to take you inside an absolutely stunning two-bedroom apartment at Madeira Acqua Residences, one of the most sought-after developments in Funchal. A Prime Oceanfront Location Madeira Acqua Residences is ideally situated on Estrada Monumental, one of the main streets in Funchal, within the desirable São Martinho area.

We’ve followed the construction of this building from its early stages—hard hats and all—and now that it’s complete, we can confidently say it’s one of the best residential offerings in Madeira. What makes it so special? The location. Residents love the walkability—groceries, restaurants, and shops at Forum Madeira are all within easy reach. But most importantly, the building sits right on the Atlantic Ocean with nothing but beach below. No roads, no traffic, no buildings—just an uninterrupted ocean view with the soothing sounds of waves and palm trees swaying in the breeze.

Inside the Apartment This 1,300-square-foot apartment is designed for both luxury and comfort. As soon as you step in, you’re greeted by modern elegance, with high ceilings, sleek finishes, and an abundance of natural light thanks to the south-facing layout. The kitchen is a dream—bright white cabinetry, high-gloss finishes, and top-of-the-line Bosch appliances, including a built-in oven, microwave, and a cleverly hidden fridge and freezer. Soft-close drawers, ample storage, and a spacious island make this kitchen both functional and stylish. And let’s not forget the best part—you can cook while gazing out at the ocean! The living room is spacious and airy, featuring beautiful real hardwood floors and direct access to the expansive oceanfront balcony. This outdoor space connects to both bedrooms as well, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. Down the wide hallway, you’ll find the guest bathroom, thoughtfully designed with stylish wallpaper, a modern vanity, and a sleek walk-in shower. The guest bedroom is surprisingly generous in size—often a rarity in two-bedroom apartments—and comes complete with its own air conditioning, double closet, and, of course, direct access to the balcony. A Master Retreat with a View The master bedroom is a true retreat, featuring ample built-in storage with three large double closets, recessed lighting, and enough space for a cozy seating area. But the real showstopper? That view. Wake up every morning to an unobstructed panorama of the Atlantic Ocean, Praia Formosa, and Cabo Girão. The en-suite master bathroom is pure luxury, finished in white marble with dual sinks and a massive walk-in shower. Every detail is designed for comfort and elegance, making it the perfect place to start and end your day.

Resort-Style Amenities Living at Madeira Acqua Residences is like being on a permanent vacation. Residents enjoy access to a stunning infinity pool right at the water’s edge, surrounded by manicured gardens and lush greenery. There’s also a well-equipped gym, walking and biking paths, and even a private elevator leading directly to the seafront promenade, connecting to Praia Formosa. Whether you prefer morning jogs along the coast or sunset strolls, this location offers it all. The Investment Perspective If you’ve been watching Madeira’s real estate market, you’ll know that prices have been rising steadily. A couple of years ago, a unit like this might have been available for €600,000. Today, you’re looking at €750,000 to €800,000, and given the prime oceanfront location, the value is only expected to increase. For those considering an investment, this property is not only a luxurious place to live but also a highly desirable rental opportunity.
