The house sits 7 minutes away from the charming seafront town of Santa Cruz with its traditional Church built during the “Manuelino” period and Town Hall with its primitive 16th Century construction. The court house built in a colonial style is one of the town’s landmarks. Near the sea front, there is the covered fish, meat and vegetable market, supermarket, restaurants, bars, post office, banks and cash machines, medical centre and promenade. A pleasant walk along the promenade leads to the only Water Park of the island. To the North, we have the well known Santo da Serra Golf course and 15 Minutes to the west, we have Camacha, worldwide known for its wickerwork. The genuine folklore singing, dancing and music can also be seen here. Further inland, one can explore the Levadas or irrigation channels which cover the whole island. Funchal, the cosmopolitan capital of Madeira, is approximately 15 minutes from Santa Cruz.

Wonderful!

Review Submitted: May 19, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We had an absolutely glorious holiday. Your house is superb, everything had been thought of for our comfort and pleasure. The beds were very comfortable, and the sun room was a super place to relax after an evening out. We cannot praise your holiday home highly enough! Nor can we fault your brilliant hospitality, and kindness.

Madeira is everything we hoped it would be, a wonderful Island with super people. We were sad to leave.

We are both certain you will see us again.
Owner's Response: Thank you for your kind words. We are extremly proud and happy that you loved staying with us. It was a pleasure meeting you both and we look forward to seeing you in the future.

Great Place

Review Submitted: January 1, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2008
We've done selfcatering for 8 years now. We stayed for two weeks. Had everything we needed, with house cleaning in the middle of our stay. The hosts are great and extremely helpful. A real bargain and highly recommend it.
Owner's Response: There is nothing that pleases us most than a happy guest.
Best Regards,
Suzana

Great villa

FR Scotland
Review Submitted: May 6, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
The house had every thing you could ask for in a holiday villa. The owners were great, they even provided the kids with dvds, games and colouring books. The garden was secure for the kids to play in and the area quiet at night.
Owner's Response: Thank you. We are happy you enjoyed your stay. All the best.
