Every time you rent through Flatio, you're automatically covered by our StayProtection package.
By booking this property, you'll also enjoy extended protection in the form of Stay Benefits - a unique offering backed by AXA! Here's what such packaging includes:
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on Flatio.
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
In the event that you move in and the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio, let us know as soon as possible!
If the conditions for the withdrawal are met and the landlord can't fix the issue immediately, you have the option to withdraw from the lease agreement with a full refund. We'll also actively help you find an alternative accommodation and remain by your side until everything is fully resolved.
You can read the conditions and all details about our Move-in Guarantee in this article of our Help Center.
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).

The staff and owner were great and the location is excellent. If we hadn't been spending 40 hours a week in the apartment trying to work, it would have been great.
Busy city center neighborhood near the waterfront. Heavy traffic, lots of tourists, but tons of restaurants nearby.
The Jinn Cafe/bar was barely 50 meters away and it was excellent. We went for coffee a few times a week.
Pros:
- great location: close to all busses, grocery stores and city center
- internet connection without any issues (I did remote work)
- well equipped kitchen
- towel and bed linen exchange possible once a week
- super comfortable bed and blackout curtains
- Vìtor (the owner) replies very fast and is available for questions
Cons:
- it is quite noisy due to the busses and motorbikes on the road in front of the building (better at night of course and it didn't keep me from sleeping) - having a window open was too loud (and sometimes smelly) for me, which might be relevant in summer time.
- the laundry as well as the garbage room weren't as clean as the rest of the building
- in the first floor, people on the street can definitely look into your apartment when the blackout curtains are open; the bathroom has a frosted glass window though
Very close to the city center, with lots of restaurants, shops and everything you need. Bus stops right in front of the building. Police station is just across the street.
The building itself is at the main road.
I can recommend the Noodle King for sushi
Funchal is just magical! It's a better version of Rio de Janeiro.
The apartment is very central, within walking distance of everything you need. During the day it's a very busy street, however during the night is more empty, so be careful if you're walking alone, although it's right in front of the police station. There's a small mall on the other side of the street with all shops needed. There's also a rooftop in the same street that's very trendy and cool. It's a 3-5mins walk from the old town where you can find many restaurants and cable cars.
Treehouse Hotel Rooftop
- well equipped kitchen
- very clean
- great central location
- property company is very responsive
- great internet connection
Cons:
- unfortunately it’s noisy (because of the busses outside)
- not enough space to put clothes, shoes and bags (little wardrobe or couple of extra racks would solve this issue).
