We have just spent 2 weeks in this excellent apartment, including New Year. The Fireworks at New Year were amazing, lots of Cruise Liners come specially to watch them.
A taxi is organised to pick you up at the airport and take you to the apartment which is about 15 mins. away. The apartment was scrupulously clean with big picture windows and superb views of the sea and coast. The beds were very comfortable, with quality linen and plenty of blankets if required. There are also plenty of radiators if the evenings get a bit cool.
The apartment is right in the centre of Canico de Baixo with lots of cafes and restaurants serving quality food at very reasonable prices, or you can cook for yourself in the apartment kitchen. There is a first class bus service to Funchal via several very interesting villages, and there are plenty of walks and sea or pool bathing close by. Go to the old part of Funchal and look for little restaurants with Madeiran customers. The food is brilliant. Not Madeiran, but superb authentic Indian food, is the Bombay Palace by the Lido. Never tasted Indian food like it! Or go by bus to Canico and have lunch and explore this quaint village. Stock up at the supermarket there which is much cheaper than the resort markets.
All in all a most enjoyable fortnights holiday, we have actually been there before, and we will certainly be going again.
Owner's Response: We are extremely pleased that our guests not only enjoyed their stay so much, but also went to the trouble of publicly acknowledging it. While we make every effort to ensure everything is in order for our guests, it is extremely nice to know that our efforts are appreciated. Thank you.
