The place looks cozy, better than all the bright-light restaurants. The food was not bad, but the service is crap! Waiters that place food on your table on their way to another table, no single friendly word. We didn’t feel welcome! This is the first time in my life I didn’t leave a tip.
We stayed from March into Easter (April) 2018 and loved it. We did not want to go home. The restaurant is in a lovely outdoor setting with good service. Fantastic barbecue and oven. Our room (no 10 ) had a spacious terrace looking out with glimpses of the sea and a steakhouse across the road which also has a dramatic outside area on the cliffs. Room spotless, linen changed every day if wanted. Bus stop around the corner with a great service connecting all of the Island. More bars/restaurants and small shops 5 minute walk away. Ideal , peaceful base. Lovely bar person in Josie, so helpful. Thank you xx
A word of warning if you have any walking difficulties, Canico my not be the best place for you as everywhere is either uphill or downhill My review is based on a week at the Vila Ventura for end of August into September. The accommodation is self catering ,although there is a restaurant on the premises, We had Room 11 on the ground floor , the room was not huge but adequate for 2 people, a small kitchen area just in the door with 2 ring hob, fridge, microwave,sink and extractor hood, we asked for a toaster and kettle both were supplied immediately. There are 2 beside tables, a dining table and another side board type unit , good sized wardrobe and safe (charged extra for key 8 euros for week and 5 euro deposit),and a smallish but adequate bathroom,my only small gripe about the Vila Ventura was the shower head was towards the corner of the wall and you could not change the angle. a terrace outside with 2 good comfortable chairs and a small table, then a bonus, a little bit of garden between the apartment and the boundary wall. There are plenty of greenery and palms there so we never felt over looked ( the garden is about 10 foot above pavement height). We had a reasonable view of the sea between a couple of buildings The Vila is spotlessly clean,all the reception staff are really friendly and very helpful with anything you need i.e car hire , taxi or advice on where to visit. and speak excellent English. The Garden restaurant is up 3 short flights of stairs and is partailly covered, it has a nice relaxed atmosphere and the food is superb , especially the skewers. Madeira is a very friendly, relaxed island probably better suited to the more mature traveller. Canico is a small town with everything you could need but limited on choice for shopping other than daily essentials, We found it an excellent base for getting out and about to see more of the island The scenery is breathtaking in the mountains We really enjoyed our stay and I can highly recommend The Vila Ventura ( would have given it 6 stars if I could)…
The staff were friendly and spoke English. The evening meal was tasty and very reasonable. There is a lovely outdoor dinning area as well. Please note there are stairs to climb down to gain access to the outdoor dinning area.
I enjoyed a beautiful week of active vacation in Madeira. Vila Ventura was the ideal launch pad. I felt welcome immediately. My room was spacious and very clean, the balcony was large. The kitchenette allowed me to cook a little something and to keep my lunch in the fridge. The personnel were always friendly and very helpful. My room had good WLAN. The only thing I was missing was a hairdryer.
