Set on a cliffside above Garajou beach and Canico's famous Christ the Redeemer statue, this luxurious villa offers panoramic ocean views. Boasting a sparkling swimming pool surrounded by leafy palm trees and lush green grass, you'll have your own private oasis here to enjoy slow mornings drinking coffee and lounging by the water. This home has everything you need to have fun with the whole family, thanks to a games room complete with a pool table and a PlayStation, should you fancy a break from the Madeiran sun. If you're keen to get out and explore (and we highly recommend you do), take a cable car to the beautiful beach and swim in the crystal clear sea. However you spend your days, dinner time will always be something to look forward to. Experiment with your favourite local flavors and cook alfresco feasts on the built-in barbecue, then tuck in on the terrace. Make sure you catch the sunset from the balcony, preferably with a glass of fizz in hand.
