Garajau named after the black-headed sea birds, terns, rest in the cliffs. Just below Garajau is a 200m high headland - Ponta do Garajau with a fine miradouro - a statue of Christ with outstretched arms, similiar to the larger statues in Rio de Janeiro and Lisbon. It was erected in 1927. This is a wonderful spot to watch the sun go down and it has great views west to the Bay of Funchal. The beach area was upgraded in 2007 and includes a restaurant. A cable car provides access to the beach. The coastline here at Garajau is also a conservation area and was one of Europe's first underwater nature reserves, providing sanctuary for whales, dolphins and seals. Along the coast to the east is Canico, the nearest large town and in front Canico de Baixo the costal holiday resort.

Notes to the rental rates
-
Rate charge is for the apartment. Not per person, @ £375 per week when 2 people share & £425 per week when 3 - 4 share.. There is no variation across the seasons. We appreciate that Christmas and New Year is very special in Madeira and thus attracts both holiday makers and Madeirans wanting to be with their families. But unlike many of our competitors, we appreciate that flights are more expensive over the Christmas and New Year period, and so do not also charge a premium rate for our apartment.
If you make an enquiry by email and you do not get a response within 48 hours, please telephone us. The reason is that we have anti-virus software, which deletes all messages with a virus and also blocks messages from certain service providers. If the anti virus software deletes the message we do not respond to the email address. I will happily forward further details, by email, once you have confirmed by phone that the email is from a genuine source.

| Notes: | Regretfully, because the apartment is on the 6th floor & the terrace is such a large area it is not easy to supervise children, so we prefer not to accommodate young children needing constant supervision. The terrace is totally private, so sun loungers can be used all day, every day. There is also a conservatory, which is usefull if the weather is inclement. The apartment is on one level and is serviced by two lifts so it is suitable for the elderly. The kitchen has everything one should need, as we have equipped it for our own private use as much as for rental. Towels, bed linen and hair dryer also provided. However, we request that you provide your own beach towels for the sun loungers. The apartment is in a small development of 32, mainly residential, apartments. Taxis and Buses are available within walking distance - bus stop outside apartment, taxi rank in next street. We would respectfully request you do not smoke in the apartment. You can smoke on the terrace |
Hiking & Walking
Garajau is a good location from where one can hike and walk the islands amazing levada irrigation system spanning 2,500 kilometres, which meander round the mountains. We recommend you use Turitrans - check it out on www.turitrans.com. They do trips in small groups of 8, using mini-buses.
Entertainment
For a really superb nights entertainment which includes dinner, drinks and a truly professional floor show try the Pestana Casino in Funchal. Shows on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. There is a different show on each of the three nights. To book call 291 20 91 80. www.pestanagroup.com. Locally in Garajau there is entertainment nightly in the Don Pedro Hotel. It is worth just popping in there and picking up their program for the week, then on route from a restaurant in the evening you can pop in, if something takes your fancy, or just for a night cap.
Other Activities A good location from where to hike and walk the islands amazing levada irrigation system
Golf Information:
Golfers will be pleased to know that the new 18-hole Palheiro golf course is no more than a 20 minute drive. Classic Madeiran hills, ridges and deep valleys have all been incorporated into the terrain to produce a dramatically interesting course, with stunning views. The spectacular 27-hole Santo da Serra golf course [also known as Campo de Golfe and home to the Madeira Island Open ] is also within easy reach. This is Madeira’s oldest golf course. It sits high up on a plateau and is marvelously scenic with inspirational views back up the mountains and out over the Atlantic below.

Dear Connie,
The apartment was very comfortable, the kitchen was wonderfully equiped and everything was pristine clean and in good working order and we enjoyed it. The pick up by Susie was very convenient and helpful. The booking process was efficient and clear.
We thoroughly enjoyed the views from the balcony. It was a wonderful base from which to start our tours around the island.
We shall certainly plan another visit!
Regards,
Jan & Rita van Waning
