We stayed at Manuel's place for 8 nights (in the new part of the building).
The location is very convenient, because it is close to the trekking area.
We were pleasantly surprised that in reality the place turned out to be better than in the photo! The room has a panoramic view of the mountain with a forest; the bathroom is spacious and very well made; the kitchen is small but enough to prepare breakfast/dinner and enjoy it on the terrace with a view.
In general, the room has everything you need. In 8 days, we had bed linen and towels changed once. The area is very quiet and peaceful.
what is important is that the territory has its own parking lot and a convenient entrance to it (since the island is mountainous, there are problems with parking and in some parts the entrances are such that our rented car could not withstand such steep climbs).
We definitely decided to stay there again if we decide to return to the island!
Manuel is a nice person and was always happy to give good recommendations, we are glad we listened to him.

Maria was super nice, we forgot to do the shopping for breakfast, she brought us some food. The place is really chill, outside of the town.

We were here for 3 nights, we arranged check-in and check-out ourselves to our full satisfaction, upon arrival you just fill out the form and send a photo of it. The apartment is fully equipped, including a washing machine, microwave oven, kettle, toaster and kitchen utensils. The location is ideal for trips to Santana and nearby levadas. Parking is directly in front of the house. Wifi without problems :) Thank you

The hotel is very pleasant.
The hotel is very pleasant. It is good to be together with nature and with beautiful views over the sea and mountains. However, check-in took a long time, we waited 1 hour and a half for them to prepare the room, and when we got to the room, there were no pool towels, we had to ask at reception. Another situation that I didn't like was the booking of the wine tasting and visit to wine house. We were refused the wine tasting because we had already checked out at 12:00h. So we asked if we could do it before check out and they said yes, but we got there and nobody showed up.

Don't stay in Santana longer than 4 days and make sure you have a rental car to get to all the levadas easily. The restaurants/cafes in Santana are not that good/nice. The only tourist attraction in Santana are the famous Santana houses and the nearby hiking area Queimadas.

We made the mistake of not hiring a car before we got to the hotel. We figured we would see what Santana was like and then hire a car locally, this was a big mistake! Once we got to our hotel, it was clear that we would need a car to get around as nothing is close or easy to get to. We're super active people but local hikes are 30 mins just to get to. We were told it would be £630 to hire a car for 5 days. Our advice would be to hire a car ahead of your trip.
Santana is beautiful and has such a variety of things to do and see. Other advice would be to not judge a book by its cover when it comes to restaurants, we ate the best stake in a tiny little restaurant that looked pretty grim from outside.
You probably wont want to spend all your time in Santana but its a great base.

I wanted time to chill, and Santana did that.
Lovely scenery.
Eat at the Serra e Mar
Don't bother with the tourists traditional houses, there are plenty of genuine ones in the town, some very rustic

We love Santana in the winter.
We love Santana in the winter. The tourists are all in Funchal, so you have the place for yourself.
Santana is ideally placed for the best hikes in Madeira: Pico Ruivo (at least 3 different hikes start here, all top-class), Queimadas with its amazing hikes and others. Also a short drive to the airport.
There are some great restaurants in Santana and the adjoining villages and all the services you may need.
Rui is a fantastic host. Santana was the perfect place for us to stay for a week in Madeira. Lots of places to eat nearby. All very reasonable. Close to hikes. Swam every day at Praia do Faial. Don't miss the pastries at Bia, literally 2 min drive away from here. And once more Rui is wonderful, recommendations for everything you could ask for.
Very nice hotel in the center of Santana. Clean and comfortable rooms with nice views (sea or mountains). The hosts are very freindly and welcoming and also offer taxi services for discount prices to nearby attractions. Very good breakfast with a large selection of local jam.
The hotel is nice, comfy bed. It was nice to relax in the jacuzzi and swimming pool, there is also a billiard table. The reception represents the famous traditional Santana house which is cute to see.
