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: 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

Golf: 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.

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 (please, contact us for link with further information). They do trips in small groups of 8, using mini-buses.

Entertainment: 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

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
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
