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.
Very good hotel, one of the best we ever stayed, Clean and comfortable. Amazing ocean view. Excellent amenities - pools and sauna, Great restaurant offering buffet breakfast and extraordinary dinners we had.
Staff was very friendly, helpful and professional. Special thanks to hotel's Manager - Luis Caldeira who was always available to the guests helping to make our stay even more memorable.
Will definitely recommend that Hotel to our friends and stay here again should we come to Madeira in the future.
Enrique was a super nice host who gave us lots of helpful tips on public transportation, showed us the way to the airport (20 minute walk), and let us check in early. The Pallet is a small and quiet place with only three rooms, so shared bathrooms are not an issue at all. The location is very central in Santa Cruz and just a few steps away from several good restaurants. This was the only reasonably priced room that we could find for New Year's Eve, so thank you Enrique!
The staff at the reception was very kind and helpful. The bed in the room was comfortable for sleeping. The breakfast choice is limited but it was enough for us. We especially appreciated the eggs and pancakes that were made in front of you, always good and fresh!
The location of the hotel is good because there are stores, restaurants and public transportation in walking distance. Also the city Funchal and the airport are near by.
Free parking is also a big PLUS!
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.
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.
I loved everything. Staff was perfectly friendly and rooms were really nice with beautiful view on the ocean. Considering the price it was absolutely fitting. What was the true gem however was pool together with the best dinners we've experienced in hotels whatsoever. I absolutely adored everything on our vacation in Albatroz hotel. Thank you so much again. And for the garlic bread!
Hotel staff was marvelous in accommodating us, from cleaning the rooms everyday to upgrading our room to even putting a minifridge in the room when we asked about a common fridge. Rooms were basic but comfortable, with plenty of hot water and a bathtub.
Location is superb, walkable from the Rodoeste bus stop and very near the beachfront, restaurants, and supermarkets.
Gorgeous apartment in a great location just a short walk from Santa Cruz town. The family who own the apartment live upstairs in a separate property and couldn't do enough for us! They drove us back up the hill one evening after dinner and to the airport on our last day. We would totally recommend staying here and the restaurants in Santa Cruz are fantastic!
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.
Location good in Santa Cruz, loved hearing the waves on the beach, got used to the plane noise. Good view. Catarina on Reception was great, she smiled, and was chatty and helpful. Cleaning staff were lovely and friendly.
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.
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.
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.
