The place was very clean, bright, and seemed to have recently been done out - new kitchen and appliances, freshly painted, and bathrooms were sparkling. I loved the decor, well placed rugs to minimise echo, beautiful full length curtains framing windows and lampshades all matched in to make it look tasteful and comfortable.
It was well kitted out with everything you could possibly need - there were complimentary cleaning and washing detergents available which was a nice touch. Similarly, there were basics like oil and salt available to use. The mugs were a good size for morning coffee (we've been forced to purchase our own on occasion, when renting similar, so this is something I'm particularly glad to see!). We stayed as 4 adults and 2 children, the rooms were a nice size and the beds comfortable.
The location is exactly where we had hoped it would be - we were specifically looking for this town as we knew the area well. The views over Christo Rei were stunning and although the sun didn't reach the balcony until midday, it was pleasant to sit out at all times. The local bakery cafe Ravioli is about a 5 minute walk for delicious cakes, easy snacks like toasties and tasty coffee, and a shop for all your self-catering needs. The local restaurants are ok, we found Neptuno the best, for local simple food. I recommend trying the scabbard out here, a locally caught fish which is similar in taste and texture to haddock. We also enjoyed the Traineira Grill steak house for grilled meats, the chicken kebab and the Tomahawk steak were beautiful. For anything fancier though, you need to grab a bolt (taxi) to Funchal or Canico. It is walking distance to the Christo Rei statue and to Garagau beach, accessible by cable car. There you will find sun loungers for rent at €3 each per day and a friendly picturesque beach bar serving nice food and big smiles. An excellent day out if the weather is mild and the sea is calm.
A special mention goes to our host and his mum.
The only thing I'd liked to have seen was better outside seating on the balconies. The plastic chairs were fine but the table was quite rusted over. There was also very little sound insulation between the main bedroom joining walls (through the built in wardrobes) so we could hear our parents talking.
My only other notes of caution are out of my host's control. There are many dog owners around the locality and the dogs like to talk loudly to each other from the balconies. It can get a bit noisy if you're not used to it. Also, be warned that everywhere you walk will either be up or down hill, there are very few flat streets and walking around can knock the stuffing out of you. For the very local shops, walk steadily and take your time. Everywhere else, download the bolt app (a bit like Uber) and take a taxi. We walked all the way into Funchal and it is not recommended - there are barely any paths, it's hard going on your legs and cars are driven like they're stolen everywhere. It's just not worth it.

We were visiting this house with my family - 3 children and the dog. As for me - this is an ideal place for having a rest. Thanks to owner Alex and his mom for the warm welcome and support. The house looks absolutely new - I was sure that we were the first visitors there. The most unbelievable thing there - is the view from all the windows and balconies: 180 degrees of the ocean. And you are almost unreachable for the neighbors' sights. One of the best ocean views of Garajau - I'm sure!
The house is located at the end of the impasse - so there are no engines around. There are lots of cafes, restaurants and shops within walking distance. In 10 mins of walking there is a cable way to the quiet beach. The kitchen is full of useful stuff for a long stay - like you are staying in your own house. We've got wonderful emotions after holidays in this house!
