Location - Oasis Atlantic 4* Hotel is located near Caniç o +-10 min. by bus. And from Funchal +- 35 min. by bus for 1.65 €. By taxi 15-20 min. +- 15 €. Comfortable buses are clearly on schedule, which changes on weekdays and weekends. The final stop is near the entrance to the hotel. 2-3 large supermarkets with products are in Caniç o; and in Funchal, 2 blocks from the bus terminus.
Territory - green, there is a small park from the ocean. Exotic plants and flowers. Access to the beach through the gate. The key is your card. In front of the hotel there is a type of promenade - a promenade with shops that connects 2 hotels and restaurants. Well lit in the evening.
The room is large, comfortable and bright. Huge sliding windows to the balcony. In the room: central air conditioning, refrigerator, telephone, TV, safe - lock for a fee, beach towels, electric kettle, glasses, glasses, spoons, spacing, large wardrobe (slightly shabby); bath, toilet. Room cleaning is not very good.
For 11 days they never vacuumed or changed the bed. Towels were changed. Soap and shampoo were provided only twice. As they say, in Portugal it is customary to throw on the floor what you need to change. I didn't quit. )))
Service - At the reception, everyone is very sensible and nimble. Polite, resourceful and welcoming. Organized excursions and made recommendations. They speak good English. The restaurant is also polite and friendly.
Meals - Breakfasts are usual - European. Cutting and hot. 60/40 OK. There were fresh fruits cut into 2 parts. But more canned. I liked the fried "triangles" of potatoes. Very tasty and fresh bread with raisins. Fresh cupcakes. Croissants are rubber. Coffee from the machines is disgraceful. Worse than chicory drink. Always queues at slow machines. There are a lot of people in the restaurant, but there is no flea market. Dishes are arranged symmetrically and replenished. Oldish dishes and crooked tongs for distribution.
There are early breakfasts in case of excursions. They don't give rations.
Dinners. They sell 3 tickets for 70 €. Buffet. For the money you can do better. The choice is sufficient, but sometimes not so much. The ticket includes drinks, tea or coffee.
There is a hall for dinner by candlelight.
Sports - Weak gym. Unscrewed dumbbells and 3 simulators. Table tennis. Sauna. Library. Internet for 30 min. Sunbeds and umbrellas by the outdoor pool. Closed - small, near the sauna. There are no bicycles. Basically everyone runs along the promenade. Nothing sporty on the water. In addition to a breakwater with a ladder, and a rope to hold when leaving the water with large waves.
Beach - Just rocks. The water is clean. Didn't see the jellyfish. There are hedgehogs. Lots of black velvet fish with glowing blue fins. A breakwater with a stone staircase just behind the gate across the promenade. On the left side along the promenade (3-4 minutes), many went to a huge paddling pool with black sand. The waves are lower there.
As the guides said, in Caniç o there is always a gale and whites. The feeling of discomfort and tension was all 11 days. The wind did not abate even in the evenings. Upon arrival to Funchal - silence and tranquility.
Animation Entertainment - In the evenings there was live music, dancing, a bar, a cafe.
Impressions and Recommendations - Quiet. Clean. Cozy hotel. No traffic noise. The ocean is nearby. Sunsets are not visible from behind the mountains. The sun was rising from behind the clouds, around 7.30 and already bright.

RALLY is held in Madeira every first weekend of August!! ! Since Thursday, the main roads have already been closed and, consequently, excursions have been cancelled. Keep this in mind when choosing a travel date and when planning excursions! Nobody from ALTO SOL and local guides warned us in advance! I have canceled 3 tours.
I DO NOT ADVISE buying excursions from the Russian company ALTO SOL! I hurried, bought 4 excursions on the first day and was very sorry. It turned out that they have extra charges of up to 20 € for each. And one tour was with a guide, barely speaking even English, but paid as for Russian. In the hotel, ALTO SOL does not have a folder or a stand with various information. And you will not know the time and date of the next arrival of the guide.
The reception has a lot of information and directions. Traveled 4 more times with local companies: Nature Meetings, MADEIRA BLUE SUN, MACARONESIA TOURS. By minibuses. I liked it very much. It is convenient that the driver stops at the request for a photo.
I highly recommend the ocean trip to Porto Santo. But just study the site of this event in advance, there are 2 options: 1st class with breakfast, dinner and drinks all the way. 72.40 € in 2 directions. And tourist class 51.50 € for 2 ways. In the tourist area there are cafes and hot dishes. The prices are normal. There is also a 1 day cruise on the site.
There, for a small fee, transfers from and to the hotel are included. Scheduled. Tickets without extra charges on the embankment at the company box office. Or in the port of Funchal. ALTO SOL has only 1st class without all transfers and with EXTRACTIONS! The island of Porto Santo is very nice and beautiful - a long, wide sandy beach, cafes and bars; 2-3 large supermarkets, 2-hour sightseeing tour with 15-20 minute drop-offs 6.30 €. The day flies by. On the way with mooring exactly 2.5 hours. But many got sick. There are buses from the ferry to the town and back 1 €. Tickets at the ferry reception.
Write, I will be happy to answer and send the addresses of companies for excursions!
