Show all villas to rent in Garajau

This delightful villa is situated just outside the pretty coastal village of Garajau on the south coast of Madeira, with uninterrupted views out over the glistening Atlantic Ocean. Casa Brandao will provide guests with the perfect sanctuary in which to relax in comfort with all the amenities of Garajau, and its lovely beach, right on your doorstep. And with activities such as wonderful hiking trails, spectacular diving and a golf course all within a few minutes from the villa, you will have plenty to keep the whole family happy. This spacious abode will provide up to eight guests with stylish living spaces, finished with tasteful decor and contemporary artwork. The main living area is a vast open plan space boasting comfortable seating, a large dining table and a bank of glass doors that open onto a terrace, maximising those breath-taking views and ensuring the room is flooded with natural light. There also is a lovely well-equipped kitchen through from the main living area, that also benefits from glass doors onto a terrace area. And if one living room isnt quite enough, guests will have the opportunity to retreat to another living area for additional privacy or perhaps to challenge a fellow guest to a game of billiards. The attractive bedrooms here at Casa Bandao all have a lovely contemporary finish, offering bright spaces in which to retreat to at the end of a busy day exploring the Island. The master suite is a delightful space, boasting a seating area, as well as glass doors out onto a welcoming sun-drenched terrace, meaning those irresistible sea views can be appreciated from the luxury of your bed. The outside space here encompasses two lovely terrace areas, providing breath-taking views right out over the glorious Atlantic Ocean. With an enticing outdoor pool surrounded by loungers, youll love to relax and cool off in the afternoon sun. On the upper terrace youll find stylish seating and a dining area meaning a sundown cocktail or two is a must, followed by a delicious Madeiran feast enjoyed as the balmy evening stretches out before you. Just perfect. #### Features The Villa Casa Brandao is a 3-bedroom villa that can be found within a quiet residential area of Canico.

Take a bracing walk along the Ponta do Garajau headland, which boasts spectacular views of the Desertas Islands on a clear day. And nestled at the base of the Garajau cliffs, just a few minutes-walk from the villa, and accessed by cable car, you can enjoy a quiet little bay located within the Garajau Natural Partial Reserve, which thanks to its extraordinary biological richness and its crystal blue waters, offers unparalleled conditions for snorkelling and diving. For a wonderful golden sandy beach (imported from Morocco), head 15km east to Machico, where youll enjoy fantastic swimming and sunbathing opportunities. Situated in Santa Cruz, youre also in prime position to take advantage of the beautiful surrounding pine landscapes. And with a stunning backdrop of orange houses nestled in green rolling hills, with the largest mountain on the island Pico Ruivo, inviting you to climb its peaks, youll love its scenic beauty. Santa Cruz is also home to many wonderful 16th century monuments as well as some delicious fine dining restaurants. The Islands capital Funchal is just 15km west, where youll love to amble along its seafront promenade enjoying a drink in one of its many beachfront bars. From here take the cable car to Monte, where you can visit the world-renowned Monte Palace Tropical Garden. And to get back to the Old Town from Monte dont miss sliding down the steep hill on a traditional wicker toboggan! Once in the old town, be sure to visit some of the fabulous restaurants serving mouth-watering skewered meats, alongside exquisite tapas and heavenly desserts such as honey cake and passion fruit pudding. Football fans will also enjoy a visit to a museum in honour of Madeiras best loved son Cristiano Ronaldo here. There are a wide range of activities on offer on the Island, from a quiet round of golf just 2km from the villa, to exhilarating 4x4 excursions across the Island, but one of the most breath-taking has to be a glorious hike along some of the 2,092 kilometres of narrow stone irrigation channels known as levadas, criss-crossing Madeiras lush mountainous countryside into the Laurisilva forest. One of the most scenic is the Levada do Caldeirao Verde, which meanders four miles past leafy glades and plunging ocean views before emerging into a picturesque clearing sprinkled by a 91-meter waterfall. Just spectacular! And for the adrenaline junkies amongst you, try your hand at the many mountain-bike trails that plunge and ascend this beautiful landscape, or throw yourself into some canyoning, which will have you sliding over cascades and abseiling down waterfalls. For the more serene, a wine tasting tour is a must. Head to Camara de Lobos, a lovely traditional fishing village 18km west for a free Madeira wine tasting experience at local producer Henriques & Henriques. Or perhaps the black lava bathing pools of Porto Moniz, 58km north, will provide the perfect day trip, where the meeting of Atlantic waves and a prehistoric volcanic eruption has formed spiky rings of black lava rock along the waterfront turning it into one of the worlds weirdest and most beautiful swimming baths. However, you like to spend your holiday, Madeiras year-round climate and stunning natural scenery, from majestic mountains, rugged cliffs, lush forests and delightful flower gardens, will provide you with everything you need to enjoy a wonderful holiday experience.
