Featuring exclusive direct access to the sea and a terrace, Vila Cais da Gaivota is a villa, set in Caniçal. The property features views of the Atlantic Ocean and is 20 km from Funchal. Free private parking is available on site.

We had the most perfect stay at this villa! The views are simply breathtaking and we felt as if we were on a private tropical island. The apartment had everything we needed, it was very quiet and peaceful and we fell asleep to the sounds of the ocean each night. A cute cat came to visit us every day. Definetely would come back and stay there, we will miss this piece of heaven!

A hot tub in the garden was amazing and we could relax after treks and heat up during colder nights (December).

    Fantastic studio right next to the beach in a very picturesque village. Plenty of restaurants and bars at max 5 min walk, small shop and two bakeries nearby. Studio is equipped with everything one might possibly need and the hosts welcomed me so nicely (including their kind offer to pick me up at the airport!) that I really felt at home.

    The location was lovely, Caniçal is a real working place with lots of local people. It’s in easy reach of the walk to the end of the island. It also has a small rocky beach for a little swim. I also was really impressed with the service and the help I got with using the washing machine. I had never come across that kind of system and could not work out of to switch it on.

    Everything was perfect. You can feel yourself alone in the nature and sea, it's very well hidden from the outside. It was great to wake up every day for that spectacular ocean view, you can just hear the ocean and nothing more. The kitchen was well equipped you can find everything you need even the owner left some coffee capsules for us and a bottle of welcome wine. The bed was great we slept well there. It was a great location for us to explore the north side of the island, and you can park your car inside which is nice.

    Very spacious apartment with lots of restaurants around. Beach across the road great for a quick swim and snorkeling, very nice pool a few steps further with loungers and access to the sea, more snorkeling spots along the coast. Canical is very nice, traditional and quiet. Easy check-in and check-out in the restaurant downstairs, host very nice. Very much recommend this place if you want a few quiet days swimming and walking and eating lovely seafood.

    Had a wondeful stay at Casas do Baleeiro! The apartment is very nice, perfectly clean, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable bed. It is located in the centre of Caniçal, within walking distance to the seaside and to the restaurants. Several small supermarkets are nearby. We visited at the end of November and, because of the weather, greatly appreciated Netflix coming with the tv :)
