Perfect for Airport!
Hotel was conveniently situated a couple of miles from Madeira Airport, perfect for an early morning flight! Although the restaurant was closed, l was given a discount voucher for sister establishment opposite the church and the food was excellent!
Left hotel by booked taxi before breakfast was served! 😢
Santa Cruz is pretty little town!

Great for an overnight stay, especially if you have a late arriving plane or an early morning departure as it’s so close to the airport
Nice pool, amthough we didn’t have time to use it.
Room was huge and very clean, pity the A/C didn’t work properly, but overall would use again.
