Glimpse of the City by Madeira Sun Travel
We present to you your perfect refuge in the heart of Funchal Bay!
Glimpse of the City, recently renovated and restored, was designed and conceived as a new home for all those who visit it, ensuring that they feel at home away from home.
Every detail of the design was carefully considered to offer an inviting and refined environment, ensuring that each stay is memorable and comfortable.
A Glimpse of the City offers three bedrooms, one of which is an elegant en suite, ensuring comfort and privacy. The other two rooms, one with a double bed and another with two single beds, are equally spacious and welcoming, ideal for accommodating family and friends.
In addition to the suite, the accommodation also has another bathroom that is equally modern and functional.
The kitchen, in an open space, harmoniously integrates with the dining room and living room, creating a perfect environment for socialising and leisure moments.
This spacious and airy area is the heart of the house, designed to provide unforgettable experiences.
The true highlight of Glimpse of the City is the panoramic view over Funchal Bay, providing a spectacular setting for New Year's Eve and to marvel at the enchanting sunset.
The accommodation also offers a balcony with a stunning view over the Port of Funchal, over the sea and mountains, thus providing an additional space to relax and appreciate the landscape.
Its outdoor area is spacious and ideal for outdoor activities, ensuring you can fully enjoy this dwelling.
Spacious, delicate and with a touch of elegance, the Glimpse of the City was carefully decorated to convey harmony and warmth!
Come and experience the magic of Funchal in this charming refuge, where each sunset is a different spectacle and every moment transforms into an unforgettable memory.
Since 2017, we have been receiving travellers from all over the world on our beloved Madeira Island, with the commitment to provide memorable experiences and excellent service. We started as Madeira Sun Travel, a name that reflected the sun, comfort, and welcoming spirit that has always guided us.
Over time, we realised that we wanted to go further: more proximity, more authenticity, more connection.
This is how Homie was born. More than a new name — a new way of being.
Hey Homie, we believe that travelling is more than discovering new places — it's about feeling at home, even far away from home. That's why we don't just hand over keys: we offer warm welcomes, recommendations that turn into unforgettable discoveries, and accommodations cared for with the same affection we would treat our own home.
Each stay is thought out in detail to be special and welcoming. Each house has its own story. And each guest is received like an old friend.
Our team, composed of experts in hospitality, communication, finance, maintenance, and design, is committed to taking care of every stage of the experience — from pre-booking to check-out. We work every day to create stays that leave lasting memories.
We are recognised for our personalised attention, the trust of owners who choose us to manage their spaces, and the positive reviews from our guests, which reflect the quality of service we provide.
Beyond comfort and hospitality, we also provide, upon request, additional services such as car rental, activity bookings, personalised experiences and much more — all so that you can enjoy Madeira to the fullest.
Be a traveller looking for a special spot or a homeowner seeking someone who will care for your home with dedication, you are in the right place.
Please note that check-in after 22:00 is subject to a late check-in fee of €20.
