Clean, spacy apartment with great view at Caniçal main square, ocean and green rocks:) Truly hospitable owners did care about our comfort and advised nice places to go to. We were welcomed with a plate of fruits and refreshment drinks. A big plus was a parking lot belonging to the apartment. Neighboring bakery with fresh local goods every morning and delicious food in a restaurant just around the corner made it perfect!
We plan to come back!
Situated on the island of Madeira, the Dom Pedro Madeira is located on the beach of Machico Bay.

I chose this hotel as a late summer holiday for my wife in return for her many kindnesses, and it was an inspired choice. Especially because I paid extra for a low floor room with a balcony and the all-inclusive option. The sea view balcony was a joy throughout each day. Be aware that every meal is a help yourself buffet (the staff bring drinks) but this was perfect for us because the buffet choice is quite amazing, and you can select exactly what you fancy for each course, and go back as often as you like. And the ambience and views from the restaurant are stunning. Plus the hotel staff are so pleasing, with that superb balance of friendliness and professsionalism. The swimming pool is gorgeous and there are plenty of other activities to pursue if you feel energetic. The hotel is in a nice sleepy town called Machico but the island capital (Funchal) is an easy bus ride (2.60 euros each way). We debated hiring a car for a day (from about 40 euros) which was so tempting because the hotel would sort it all out, and have the car delivered/returned from the hotel. But in the end, another day relaxing by the pool was irresistable as the weather during our stay was absolutely perfect. We will definitely return.

Hotel is new and well equipped. Convenient location to both the airport (24h check in) and Funchal (either by other shuttle and/or local buses) - lovely view on the ocean and airplanes landing.
Excellent breakfast and helpful cordiality
Located on one of the most beautiful coasts in the north-east of Madeira, this hotel is surrounded by breathtaking landscapes of the sea and the volcanic mountains.

Great location with incredible views, a great breakfast and lovely staff, particularly Leticia. Great restaurants on the doorstep and the lido a short walk away too.
Boasting 400 meters of private sea front, this 5-star property offers spacious rooms all with balcony and views of the Atlantic and the Deserted Islands.

We did half board and absolutely loved the breakfast and dinner choices. We moved to Funchal halfway through the week and regretted leaving the Albatroz which had better food and super comfortable rooms for the same price.
Featuring a house dating back to 1920, Porto Bay Serra Golf is surrounded by gardens, and provides guests with direct access to Santo da Serra Golf Course.

The hotel is placed 10 km from the airport, in a very silent position. The interior design is very nice.
I loved the pool. The water in the pool has a great temperature.
Very raccomended the restaurant.
I didnt eat the breakfast because I left early but they prepered me the take away breakfast.
The stuff is very nice. The beds are big and comfortable. Really enjoyed the stay.
Surrounded by nature, Enotel Golf Santo da Serra is 8 km from Machico, 20 km from Funchal and a 5-minute walk from Santo da Serra golf course.

Nice hotel in rural area up in the mountains. The building is in a very good shape, seems new. The free running peacocks is the garden are just an extra and funny to watch.
Small little harbour front town
Variety of small restaurants
Highly recommend Celebrantes, do not recommend Aquarium!
Beautiful views but not a town for families.
Great if you would like to do walking/hiking, the hills are insane and shops are very small, not commercialised and very local
All restaurants are seafood orientated, there is a small Pizza takeaway, so be mindful of planning to visit.

Canical may not be for everyone; it's a small, quiet fishing town with an industrial port and rocky beach.
The whale museum is excellent and you can walk there from the apartment (we've been before, so not sure it was open this time so do check).
The reason we went to stay in Canical was to walk to ponta Sao lorenco which is a short bus journey away. It's a stunning, dramatic walk along the peninsula you see when you land on Madeira.
Canical beach would be improved by having wooden pallets to lie on all year round. Northern European tourists are desperate for sunbathing all year round, it's warm enough for us!

There is nothing special to see and we didn't find any restaurants where the food was outstanding in Caniçal village. The only outstanding restaurant is Quinta do Lorde resort (in the lighthouse).
