Santa Cruz is a small seaside village at the end of the runway. There are enough cafes and restaurants to keep you occupied along with some nice little parks and a good play ground if you have kids. The weather is just perfect.

Very good service by everybody, even the manager helped me get my car out, the breakfast staff did food for my special needs, the reception were very welcoming, it was clean & modern & I liked the mint water & that the hotel has a private garage.
Very good standard close to the airport & the small town center.
Only minus was that I'd wished for a heated jacuzzi .-)

Nice village from were to start exploring the eastern part of Madeira. The airport and the motorway are nearby and you'll be in Funchal in 30min. by car.
There isn't much to do in Santa Cruz but there is a few bars and restaurants to enjoy the evening, a public swimming pool, a couple of shops and you can spend some time on the beach.

The house located between Garajau and Canico.
The house located between Garajau and Canico. Cristo Rei in Garajau is a must to visit. Here hop on the cable car and take a look to Garajau beach. The beach is stony, there're much more nicer beaches to visit. Worth to eat at Talho do Canico, a tarditional grill bar in the centre of Canico. Taste tangerine poncha in La Carbonara in Garajau, the closest bar to the house.
If you visit Madeira in April don't miss out the flower carneval in Funchal!
Visit Sanatana to see the old traditional triangle shaped houses and visit Faial and Porto Moniz for the spectacular beach views.

I would say, Santa Cruz is not worth visiting unless you have an early flight... There is nothing special to see. The Palm beach does not seem very nice and clean (there are big black stones on the beach - they are not comfortable to lay and to go to swim).
The marina is quite short and it finishes by the swimming pool and the akvapark, but they were closed in March.
I had a dinner at the restaurant Biletheira and the tuna steak was really good (12 Eur)!
Santa Cruz is very near Funchal, so you can go to Funchal by bus and you can spend your time in the capital city.
The stay at this hostel exceeded our expectations. We chose it because of its location near the airport. Initially we were afraid of the noise but in our room we did not hear any noise from the airplanes nor the restaurants and the beaches that surround it. Very comfortable beds and a very good location. Best nights slept on the islands were in this hotel. Bus Expresso to Funchal and Machico is only 5min away by foot. Very underrated accomodation where we very much enjoyed our (short) stay. Aircon was a very precious plus, game changing !
Beautiful apartment, spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed and lots of fluffy white towels. Everything you could possibly need for a two week stay. A short walk to all the bars and restaurants in the little town of Santa Cruz. The owner was very pleasant and helpful and the apartment was cleaned , beds and towels changed, mid stay.
You can get to Funchal on the local bus, but Santa Cruz is a good place to stay if you have a car, easy access to the main road s around the island.
Highly recommend this apartment, quiet, clean and comfortable.
I was pleasantly surprised how close the apartment was to the beach area of Santa Cruz. Also very nice fruit/veg shop, pharmacy and bakery/coffeeshop under the apartment block. The public transport is very easy to get to Funchal as well as Machico beach. Some busses will take you the scenic route. At the same time there is plenty of space to park you car in a safe place under the apartment block. The apartment has 2 bathrooms and the kitchen is a decent size. The washing machine does help too and I was amazed by the gigantic balcony.
+ Surprisingly charming local town where we found some sweet little restaurants serving good local food ( in the square ).
+ Room was nicely lit and had everything we needed really
+ V close to airport ( 5 mins taxi. )
+ Hotel helped us get the taxi v early in the morning and provided a breakfast box
+ Spa was quality, proper steam and sauna with a view!
+ Pool looked nice outside but too cold
+ Good large breakfast featuring everything you could imagine but not all great quality but overall fine
Ana and Joao, our hosts, were superb! Beautiful island, stunning scenery, wonderful hosts (worth repeating!!!) and accommodation, and the warm, welcoming, kind Madeiran people. Had a magnificent time! Oh, and the food and restaurants are top class, most especially in Santa Cruz! We were also able to do some 'planespotting' due to the residences' proximity to the airport, but there was no issue whatsoever with noise. I was very, very sad to leave!!!
Location is the best advantage of this apartment. Close to the airport (even on foot), close to the beach (rocky), 20 minutes by car to Funchal. Santa Cruz is a nice and silent city with several good restaurants and rocky beach. Apartment offers good view on planes landing at the airport, and great view on the ocean. There are washing machine and dishwasher, which are useful in case of longer stay. Garage parking lot is also very convenient.
Location in proximity to the airport for us was very convenient as a transfer hotel, with an added bonus of great facilities (i.e. pool, exercise room). Staff were very helpful, breakfast buffet was really good. A small town of Santa Cruz around the hotel is quaint to visit. Liked the hotel's animation: enthusiastic trainer invited us to water aerobics in the pool, and that's just what we needed.
Good hotel very close to airport (4 min with a car). Room was nice and clean, quiet in the night. Nice pool and sun terrace area. Pool is not heated but it was round 20C so it was good for short swim:) Great view. Very close to town center. Small parking in front of hotel, but big public parking 100m away. Great option for early flights or late arrivals to Madeira. Very nice and useful staff.
Friendly, silent, clean, perfect beds and breakfast. For 3 adults we had 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, shower and bath. There are even blackout curtains!
Absolutely helpful and kind staff. The best hotel where we stayed during our 2 week vacation in Madeira. Santa Cruz is a lovely town.
Very good place to stay in Santa Cruz. In the center, close to any facility you would require (bus stop, bakery for breakfast, restaurant on the shore etc.). Staff were super helpful and nice. Good size rooms, comfy beds, clean bathroom. Overall great experience!
Nice place for a short stay! Santa Cruz is a charming, small town with the rocky beach and some restaurants and bars. Very close to the airport (you can take a walk to get to the hotel). Hotel is in the heart of the town, the staff is very kind and helpful,
We loved our stay at Santa Cruz Village- great location and amazing staff . Special thanks for the extra bed/sofa. Great breakfast and overall we were impressed by the hotel(great value for money) and Santa Cruz. We will come back.
Close to Santa Cruz (20 min walk) and the beaches, clean. Very responsive and nice host who spoke Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Gated parking lot and 1 spot included. Secure entry and exit into the building.
The hotel is simply excellent. The stuff is so kind and we loved the salt water pool next to the ocean. It is also only 10 min away by foot to the town which has most amazing local restaurants.
Spacious, modern apartment on the top floor. Comfy couch, small tv.
Great outside balcony with seating.
Beautiful view of the sea, village and airport runway.
Not much noise.
lovely property, feels like you on a cruise but not stocked in a boat. we walked to Santa Cruz a few times and found some decent restaurants but no one beat the property restaurant
Very spacious and clean with a great view. Modern and comfortable. Centrally located in Santa Cruz but since it’s close to the main highway, it’s easy to go anywhere else.
