About this property

Situated in a quiet residential street in Garajau, this apartment is ideal to relax in with a nice garden and sea view. It is just about 10 minutes by car from Funchal centre and it is also conveniently located for visiting other parts of the Island.

The apartment is big and fully equipped with all modcons - dishwasher, microwave, washing machine, TV plus free wireless internet and a free-parking space.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW
Renting a car at the airport is probably the best option to enjoy the freedom of discovering the Island on our own and returning to a quiet apartment with a private garden at the end of day. Relaxing in Garajau wondering its residential streets, going to the beach or reading a book in your own private garden are also some of the privileges of staying in this area. Peaceful place.

Nice property but it’s definitely seen better days. On the plus side, the apartment is spacious, has covered parking and has newer, well-functioning appliances. On the downside, the back porch floor was covered in water as there was an old seal in the window. The bathroom door/lock combo was hanging on by a single loose screw. One of the sliding doors wouldn’t lock properly so maintenance had to come and fix it. The hallways of the building are crumbling a bit and detract from the overall appearance. I asked 2 or 3 times for a cutting board but received no reply. That was a bit frustrating as it shouldn’t be that hard to communicate with guests, especially over something fairly minor. I ended up cutting on the counter as there was no cutting board in sight. Other than this, we had a fine stay. However if we were to come back to Madeira, I think we’d choose a spot right in Funchal.

Dejligt sted

Det var et fint ophold. Tæt på stranden. En dejlig krævende gå tur op og ned.Lejligheden er lidt kold, men det er nok praktisk om sommeren, så bare tænd de små radiatorer fra start.Der er også en lille fin gåtur til dagligvarer og nogle restauranter

Großzügige Ferienwohnung in guter Lage

Die Wohnung bietet ausreichend Platz für 5 Personen. Die Betten sind bequem. Für Ausflüge nach Funchal und in den Inselosten ist die Lage sehr gut. In ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß ist man im Ortskern mit verschieden Geschäften, Cafes und Restaurants. Der Sitzplatz auf der Terrasse ist allerdings für 5 Personen etwas klein. Die in der Anzeige abgebildeten Liegen waren nicht vorhanden. Die Ausstattung der Küche ist eher spartanisch und lädt nicht zum Kochen ein. Absolutes Lowlight: eine lebendige Kakerlake in der Küche auf der Arbeitsplatte, zwei tote am Boden.

Urlaub pur

Die Lage ist prima. Alles was man braucht, ist in der Nähe. Der Blick von der Terrasse Richtung Meer ist großartig. Der Garten macht es mit allem was da blüht richtig schön. Mir war gar nicht klar, dass sich der Stellplatz für das Auto in der gut befahrbaren Garage der kleinen Wohnanlage befindet. Umso besser! Die geräumige Wohnung ist schön eingerichtet (Geschmackssache) und gut ausgestattet. Von hier aus ist man schnell in Funchal wohnt aber sehr ruhig. Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur war bestens. Ein- und Auschecken ging easy und kontaktlos. Wir waren sehr zufrieden und können die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen!! Gerne wieder!!

wonderful local village and stunning views

thank you for the best local Madeiran experience. the views from the flat were lovely, although a bit cold at night without heating, there were plenty of blankets to cozy up with. limited toilet paper and hot water but clean and spacious flat. well equipped kitchen, despite the leaky french press, it was great to cook breakfast and not worry about cleanup with the dishwasher. beautiful garden perfect for sunbathing and relaxing with a book.

Lovely apartment in beautiful location although you definitely need a car. Filipa was really helpful and very friendly. I would love to come again but not at that time of year. We were FREEZING in the evening and there was no heater which I think is a real necessity. Also TV is only in Portuguese - fine if like us you speak Portuguese, but very difficult if you don't.
