Romantic ocean front apartment in a charming fishermen village

The self catering apartment Casa do Cais is located in one of the last remaining fishing villages, Paul do Mar. It comprises: a luxury two bedroom apartment of 120sq m, one double bed (queen size bed) and two singles, cot available; one shower room with toilet and vanity unit; one fully fitted kitchen with equipment and utilities; a fully furnished lounge area with TV and a view overlooking the ocean; magnificent roof terrace BBQ, hammock, table and chairs. The Atlantic Ocean is literally two metres from the front door. The local harbour and beach is only one hundred yards walk along the sea wall. For the budget traveller is the perfect hideaway location for the surfing, body boarding, fishing, walking, and photography or sea side enthusiast. In this house, on the magnificent roof terrace, overlooking the ocean and the harbour you forget about the world . You do not see or hear anyone or anything except the sound of the sea.


For the budget traveller is the perfect ' hideaway ' location for the surfing, body boarding, writing, fishing, walking, golfing, and photography or sea side enthusiast. It is located in a very quiet portion of Paúl do Mar.
In the summer months windsurfing, surfing, swimming and snorkelling are perfectly safe in the ocean, right outside the front gate. In the winter months the sea is more suitable for surfing and body boarding. Snorkeling and diving is still available but a wet suit would be recommended.
The sun always shines in Paul do Mar and so sunbathing is always an option!
Golf: Palheiro Golf Course - 50 km - near Funchal.
New golf course being built at aprox. 15 km (ready 2008).

Amazing sunsets from superb patio
The huge sliding windows looking out onto the waves just below the house and the patio with hammock were really special. The apartment was homely and had a comfy feel of being lived in happily.

Paul Do Mar stay in November 2018
We very much enjoyed our stay in Paul Do Mar, It is a most wonderful location right on the sea shore in a small fishing village with views over the blue sea. Close walking distance to three bar/resturants serving local fish but quiet and peaceful at night. You need to have a hire car but access to the island is very good now with all the new roads, only 35-40 mins from the airport and less into Funchal. Good simple accomodation with everthing you need for your stay. Giorgio, the owner, was most helpful and made sure everthing was prepared for our arrival. The island is lush and beautiful with temperatures in the low 20s, so green and sunny compaired with a grey and cold UK in November. Will be be going back? You bet!

Beautiful ocean front house
My family of 4 loved staying at this beautiful little house. You literally open your window and have the ocean right in front of you with no obstructive views. Every night we enjoyed the sound of the waves to put us to sleep and during the day the ocean breeze felt great. An extra bonus was having your own private outdoor patio on the 3rd floor with plenty of seating to relax and enjoy the amazing views.

Relax Enjoy
Young man who I beleive is Georgios Son met us at Airport no problem Madiera car hire rep at same time, all went smoothly directions good didnt take us long to find property ( locals helped us) Basic but everything you need, comfortable bed even ! Terrace fantastic as in the description, at high tide you could cast a fishing line to the sea from the terrace ! no need though we had the freshest Tuna from the sea first day from a man who comes arround in his Van Toots his horn to attract youre attension, (same with Fruit and Veg and Bread) 4/5 Bars all selling food and One small MiniMarket/bar (locals) I nodded off on this terrace on many occasions with a bottle of Mateus Rose to the sound of the waves crashing against the Rocks below. Wow, my wife needed to relax and she got it. There is a big Super Market at Pol Do Mar Just a few miles away thru Tunnel if you wish but you dont realy need to. Bananas every where. Madiera @ Bananas are Us ! See you again sometime

Good location. Great sunset roof terrace. Quiet village. A number of good cafe/bars.
We enjoyed our time in this apartment and in the village of Paul do Mar. Anyone who stays here must enjoy the sound of the sea as it is right outside the window. The sun terrace is great and we spent most of our time on it. My only complaint and it is a pet hate of mine - the shower was not so good and it leaked all over the floor.

Eine Traumlage
Wir waren schon einmal in Gorgios Haus und haben uns vollkommen wohlgefühlt. Es war auch dieses Mal genauso. Die Unterkunft ist topp in Ordnung, aber die Dachterrasse mit ihrem Meerblick übertrifft alles. Man kann Liebhabern des Meeres nur dazu raten.

Schöner Urlaub
Das Appartement hat uns gefallen, besonders der schöne Ausblick aus dem Küchenfenster und von der Dachterrasse. Das waren unsere Lieblingsplätze 😊. Der Ort selbst ist sehr ursprünglich und hat wenig Tourismus, was wir sehr genossen haben. Der Vermieter ist sehr freundlich und hat immer prompt reagiert. Wir haben uns dort wohl gefühlt und unseren Aufenthalt genossen.

Schöne Wohnung in bester Lage direkt am Meer
Wir hatten einen wundervollen Urlaub in dem kleinen Dörfchen Paul do Mar. Die Dachterrasse übertrifft alle Erwartungen, das Meeresrauschen begleitet einem bis in den Schlaf. Uns hat es dort an nichts gefehlt und wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen. Nochmals vielen Dank an Giorgio, alle unsere Fragen wurden im Vorfeld schnell und problemlos beantwortet.

Näher am Meer geht nicht!
Wir haben uns in den zwei Wochen super wohl gefühlt. Am Anfang kam einem das Meeresrauschen fast laut vor, aber mit zunehmender Zeit hat man es immer mehr zu schätzen gelernt. Die Abende auf der Dachterrasse mit dem wunderbaren Ausblick werde ich wirklich vermissen Auch das man so schnell im Meer - mit dem herrlichen klaren Wasser, baden konnte, war schön. Das Haus war bis auf den Backofen mit allem ausgestattet, was nötig war. Das Bad ist klein, aber völlig in Ordnung. Die Zimmer haben nur kleine Fenster mit geringer Luftzufuhr, aber dank des Ventilators ging das auch. Wir können das Haus ohne Einschränkungen weiterempfehlen.

Die Wohnung liegt in einem kleinen Fischerdorf direkt am Meer. Die Angaben bei fewo und die Fotos entsprechen voll der Realität. Die Wohnung ist mit Blick für Details sehr ansprechend und gemütlich ausgestattet. Alle notwendigen Dinge sind vorhanden, die Lage direkt am Meer ideal, wenn man intensives Meeresrauschen liebt.

Dejligt hus med sol på tagterrassen hele dagen. Vi savnede en ovn i køkkenet, for vi er glade for at bage og lave mad. Rigtig gode senge! Flot beliggenhed med panoramaudsigt over Atlanterhavet i en hyggelig lille fiskerby. Ejeren Giorgio Martin er meget imødekommende og hjælpsom!

Urlaub 17.12 -31.12.2019
Das Haus liegt direkt am Meer, ein herrlicher Meerblick und das Rauschen der Wellen haben wir als sehr erholsam empfunden. Das Haus ist mit allem was man benötigt ausgestattet und das W-Lan funktioniert hervorragend. Die Betten sind sehr bequem wir konnten sehr erholsam schlafen. Ein kleiner Minimarket ist in 1 Minute Fußweg zu erreichen, sowie diverse Restaurants. Direkt am Meer zu wohnen mit so einer tollen Dachterrasse ist sehr erholsam. Paul do Mar ist wahrlich ein schönes Fischerdorf und weit weg vom Trubel und Tourismus. Der ein oder andere Mangel könnte den Aufenthalt noch schöner gestalten. Der Warmwasserboiler ist für 2 Personen ausreichend, sollte man aber mit 4 Personen anreisen ist eine Absprache zwecks Duschen notwendig. Die Warmwasseraufbereitung ist zu gering. Die Eingangstür ist etwas schwer zu öffnen (anheben und kräftig ziehen) eine Einstellung der Tür ist erforderlich. Auch ein Austausch der Wohnzimmersessel die bereits in die Jahre gekommen sind, und etwas sperrig sind wäre sinnvoll. Wir waren in den 2 Wochen trotz der kleinen Mängel sehr zufrieden, und der Aufenthalt in der Ferienwohnung Casa do Cais hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Ein großes Lob an den Hausbesitzer Herr Giorgio Martin, wann immer eine Frage aufgekommen ist wurde sie sofort per E-Mail beantwortet. Auch die Nachbarschaft alles nette und freundliche Menschen, wir kommen gerne wieder. Familie J.R

Ottima esperienza
La casa si trova esattamente di fronte all'oceano ed è dotata di (quasi) tutte le comodità. La terrazza sul mare è splendida e pittoresca. Ottimo punto d'appoggio sia per una vacanza stabile ed esclusivamente di mare (la spiaggia di ciottoli è vicinissima e comoda; è possibile anche fare il bagno) sia per chi voglia girare l'isola e compiere escursioni. Consigliato!
