About this property

Garajau II, with large balcony and sea view.

The Garajau area is known for its pleasant climate, good access, and proximity to the sea, which is part of a wonderful nature reserve. Are you ready to dive?
The apartment is spacious and has two bedrooms: one with a double bed and the other with two single beds. The living room is large and filled with excellent natural light, thanks to its south orientation, offering a great sea view from the balcony.
The property is ten minutes by car from the airport and Funchal—a real advantage for those who want to be close to the city and near the east side of the island.
With a maximum capacity of six people, the apartment is fully equipped with all amenities.
The property has a private parking place.

AREA
The Garajau area offers many restaurants, shops, and supermarkets. A beach can be reached within a five-minute walk, and there is a small trail for your morning walks, right next to the Cristo-Rei monument.
Renting a car at the airport may be a good option to discover the island at your own pace. You can also choose to relax in Garajau and walk through its residential streets, go to the beach, or read a book in your private garden—these are just a few of the privileges of staying in this area.

Great place for a short or long holiday. :)

We had a very nice stay, everything was very clean and well taken care of. Apartment was spacious and had everything that one may need for a short or long stay. One small issue was the dogs barking in the night in the neighborhood but else we enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

Very tired and uncomfortable needs updating as the advertising online photos were old and not representative of the property condition or it's location - high density dwelling accessed via steep roads.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Aug 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the property did not meet your expectations and for the discrepancies with the photos, as well as the inconvenience of the steep roads and surrounding area. We appreciate your comments and will use them to improve for future guests. We hope to have the chance to provide you with a better experience next time.

Appartement trĂšs correct, manquait un peu de vaisselle et quelques prises non fonctionnelles. Par temps de pluie infiltrations par le toit dans les escaliers qui pour l’instant n’affectent pas l'appartement. Mais Ă  terme il va finir par ĂȘtre humide.

Mooi appartement

Appartement is keurig met een mooi uitzicht. Met auto goed te bereiken maar lopend een flinke inspanning. Rustige omgeving met weinig verkeer. We gaan er zo weer heen maar dan wel met een auto want lopend pfffff.
Response from VrboOwner on 20 Oct 2025
Bedankt voor uw feedback. Fijn dat u genoten heeft van het uitzicht en de rustige omgeving. We nemen uw suggesties over de keuken en bereikbaarheid mee. Hopelijk heeft het mooie uitzicht alles goedgemaakt. We hopen u binnenkort weer te verwelkomen bij An Island Apart.

Good stay! We love Madeira.

The appartment was very nice and well equiped. The environment was also very nice except so many dogs barking all days and nights long! I love dogs so much, the problem is the owners not saying anything! Good services offered and responses on time always! Thanks

Very Good Experience

We Stayed for 16 days, working remotely there and the house fully responded. We got a wonderful view, the support was great and the cleaning as well and we were close to the main road of the Island so we were close to everything. Recommend!

Gute Wahl

Checkin funktionierte leider nicht, da kein WohnungsschlĂŒssel in der SchlĂŒsselbox war.....Leider stimmte die Hausnummer des Mietobjektes nicht mit den Angaben fĂŒr das Checkin ĂŒberein. In der Wohnung selber waren einige Dinge zu reklamieren: Brauseduschkopf verkalkt, Toilettensitzdeckel nicht richtig befestigt, Lampen defekt. Diese Dinge wurden aber sehr schnell beseitigt bzw. repariert. Das Haus, indem sich das Mietobjekt befindet, ist sehr hellhörig. Wir wurden zur Einhaltung der Ruhe abends etc. aufgefordert. Die Nachbarn links und rechts wren auch alle sehr ruhig, nur deren Hunde nicht. Die bellten und jaulten zu jeder beliebigen Zeit und keiner kĂŒmmerte sich darum. Es hĂ€ngt wohl auch damit zusammen, dass man dort ein gĂ€nzlich anderes VerhĂ€ltnis zu Tieren hat als bei uns (wertfreie Äußerung!). SchrĂ€g unter uns war ein relativ großer Hund nur in einem kleinen Zwinger eingesperrt. Wir haben diesen Hund in den 5 Wochen Aufenthalt kein einziges mal außerhalb des Zwingers gesehen, geschweige denn, dass sich einer um ihn gekĂŒmmert hĂ€tte..... Summa Sumarum war der Aufenthalt dort eine gute Wahl!
