The hosts contacted me a few days before my arrival to offer help and provide information. They were great and very helpful, they were easy to contact if we needed to ask questions. The house was clean and had an amazing view. not far from the airport. The location of the house will be better for those who hired a car as it is up a hill.

Really nice, clean, well-equipped and spacious apartment on a perfect location in Santa Cruz. Easy to reach the airport, as well as all other touristic attractions at Madeira island. Funchal is not far from that place, and there are many regular daily buses. Having a parking place in a garage is really advantage. All my recommendations!

The hosts waited for us until 3 in the morning to arrive. We had to walk from the airport and it was definitely doable in 20 minutes (it’s downhill). The place was very clean and had all amenities you’d need, including a kitchen, airco and washing machine. It is also very close to the center of the village, si in 5 minutes you can reach the cafe, ocean, and shop.
