Self-Catering Accommodations in Caniço

We had a wonderful week at Villa Hansen; Jan was so welcoming and the property is in a lovely quiet location, just a short walk to a fabulous local bakery, supermarkets, and a range of restaurants and bars. It's about a 20 min walk down to the Cristo Rei statue and the cable car to Garajau beach, which is great for snorkeling (would definitely advise beach shoes as it's a pebbly beach). It's a great base for exploring other areas in the east of the island; we took a bus from Funchal back to the villa which took about 20 mins, but for further exploration you need a car/uber/taxi. In terms of the facilities, the villa has everything you need; we had a mixture of going out for meals and cooking for a couple of the nights. The kids fell in love with the pool, which has an amazing view of the sea, and they also enjoyed the ping pong table. Jan was also on hand to answer any questions we had and arranged transfers to and from the property; we subsequently booked an island tour with Rui, the man who collected us from the airport, and we can't recommend that highly enough - we toured the east of the island and it was a day we'll never forget. All in all, a fabulous week and we can't wait to come back and visit Madeira and Villa Hansen again!

This is one of those places where staying there genuinely felt like living a dream. The ocean views were absolutely spectacular and made us happy every single day. Waking up to the sea and enjoying the peaceful surroundings was something truly special. The apartment had such a relaxing atmosphere that it was hard to leave. The host was incredibly organized and helpful throughout our stay. Even though we had planned our trip around Madeira quite well in advance, he still gave us lots of great recommendations, including the best places to visit, how to get there, and which hikes were worth doing. He was also very attentive during our stay, checking whether we needed any extra cleaning and even helping us with parking. It really felt like he cared about making our stay as easy and enjoyable as possible.

Beautiful home and amazing views. Comfortable and spacious. Quiet. Clean. A little far from activities. Great views to wake up to!

The village is beautiful and the clubhouse was fabulous.

Excellent location, incredibly kind and responsive host, clean and spacious room, wonderful price for the area. Best property we stayed at in our trip through Portugal!

The apartment was located away from the hustle and bustle of the city and had ocean views from the pool and apartment space! It was located less than 15 minutes from the Funchal airport and was a quick 5 minute drive from the highway making it easy to get to around and explore the island!

The view is very breathtaking, the room is very minimalist but we kinda like that, the owner is very nice very informative, for short or long stay definitely okay.

I liked our room very spacious and that the buffet breakfast was included.

Very kind owner. Nice room (apartment).

The ocean view, cleanliness, hospitality.

The location and the view cannot be beat!! Coffee in bed, staring out at the beautiful sunrise was spectacular!Clean, cozy, safe and private with the most gracious host and hostess! Everything you need and more in the kitchen and bathroom. Bruno and Liliana are there to help with anything. I arrived later than expected in the night, they were there to greet me and help with check in, they had even prepared a light meal for me(which was delicious!!)- they went above and beyond! The private parking spot is perfect, right next to the door! I look forward to visiting again!!

Very friendly and helpful personel.

Our apartment at Falesia Gardens was just what we were looking for. Very comfortable, had everything we needed. Bed was comfy, kitchen had everything you needed if you wanted to prepare a meal. Hairdryer & iron provided. Added bonus was the pool tucked into the back of the property. Quiet and secluded whether you wanted to take a dip or just soak up some sun on a lounge chair. Building is set into a lovely neighborhood with a small patio on the main level & a balcony off the bedroom.

Comfortable bed, everything you need in the kitchen incl. Soap and towels. good shower with plenty of towels. Good parking, 15min with car to center of Funchal and within 30min there are many hiking routes. Situated in a small village with supermarked close by. very beautiful garden.

Exactly like pictures. Very spacious and huge outdoor area overlooking the water. Simply beautiful! Hosts very responsive and easy to get in touch with

House was spacious, clean and all the facilities mentioned on the site were available. The dryer was not working but since it was hot and sunny, it did not bother imus as we could dry our clothes on the back side of the house and informed the owner to get it checked after we leave.

Beautiful apartment , wkth everything you'd need in a great location , Canico is a lovely place with restaurants near by , local super market right next door. Catarina was fantastic, quick response to any queries, offered advice and suggestions for places to eat/see. No complaints, would re book in a heartbeat, fantastic host.
