Ground floor house in Garajau, Terrace Vila
When we travel, we usually want accommodation that has a good location, accessibility, close to restaurants and beaches, at a good price. This property has an excellent compromise between all these factors. Built in the 70's, when Garajau was much less populated, the architecture of the house takes us to that time. The recent renovation will make your stay more pleasant. With two bedrooms, both with double bed, this property has a maximum capacity of 4 people. Enjoy the terrace and sun on the south side of our island, go to one of the nearby beaches and live Garajau and Madeira.
AREA In the Garajau area there is easy access to several restaurants, shops and supermarkets. There is also a beach ten minutes walk and a small trail for your morning walks, right next to the Cristo-Rei monument. Renting a car at the airport can be a good option to discover the island at your pace. You can also choose to relax in Garajau by walking its residential streets, going to the beach or reading a book. These are just some of the privileges of staying in this area.
GETTING AROUND The best option to get to the apartment will be the transfer. Ask us to book one with our local partners. It is cheaper than the taxis you find at the airport. If you rent a car, any navigation app can easily find the address. There is a bus stop 2 minutes walk from the house.

Great Place for Your Madeira Stay
While no rental is perfect, this rental ticks all the boxes. Check in was seamless and communication with the management company was always easy. The apartment comes with a very well outfitted kitchen and is spacious with a great terrace. The location in Garajau has multiple restaurants and shopping within walking distance and is right by the highway for easy access to the rest of the island. We had a very pleasant 2 week stay and would gladly come back.

Great Location on a Beautiful Island!
Great location away from the busy places but still close enough for everything we needed. Just down the road from Cristo Rei its a spot its a spot that has three great resturants close by plus a grocery store as well. The accomadations are clean and cosy and filled all our needs.
