The hotel was conveniently located to the airport, which was a plus since we had an early morning flight. There was parking, which was nice. The rooms could use a little bit of updating but overall a very nice hotel

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!
