Located within a traditional and historical building in Funchal old town, Santa Maria Hostel is a boutique hostel featuring a vintage-style décor. The hostel offers a restaurant serving fresh fish dishes and a pizzeria.
Ranging from dorms to private accommodation, each unit at the Santa Maria is decorated with attention to detail in a very colourful way. Dorm rooms have lockers, individual reading lights and access to shared bathroom facilities.
Guests can use a fully equipped kitchen to prepare their meals. The restaurant on the ground floor serves a variety of meals based on fish, from sushi to the freshly caught fish.
A mezzanine floor encloses the lounge area, with a reading nook, a flat-screen TV and sofas. There is also an outdoor seating area, where guests are welcome to relax. The central location of Santa Maria means guests are a few steps from the lively bar street, and a cable car can also be found within walking distance.
Santa Maria Hostel is 10.6 miles from Madeira International Airport, and a chargeable airport shuttle is available. The Funchal Sé Cathedral is within 10 minutes’ walking.
This is our guests' favourite part of Funchal, according to independent reviews.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.
