Holiday Homes in Santa Cruz

"Het huisje ligt rustig in de bergen. Je hebt een (huur)auto nodig om het eiland te verkennen. Uitzicht is mooi (je kijkt richting de oceaan) maar de inrichting is erg basis. Nauwelijks voorzieningen aanwezig in het huisje. Ze zijn wel bezig met opknappen en renoveren maar het is allemaal wat ouder/basic."

"What an amazing property with the most fantastic views - perfect part of the island with the little beach below and cable car access The owner was really responsive with messages and very helpful, even helping to organise a birthday cake Had a little trouble with alarms going off when we arrived but it was soon sorted Can highly recommend the restaurant in town called Ferrugem - staff were wonderful Also True Spirit Jeep Tours to the North with off roading and vineyard/winetasting - they even...

"Excellent stay, 10/10 recommend. Very clean and well maintained, beautiful views. Host was easy to communicate with, responsive, and had lots of thoughtful touches (local fruit, water, etc). Well stocked kitchen for cooking. Would recommend a car, but that’s true for most of Madeira. "

"The night before I booked the Vrbo as I was flying in from the United States and needed a place to stay for one night before going to the resort. I’m less the 8 hours I found out my plane reservation got switched. I email and asked if I could get at least a portion of my money back and he said no. Eight hours before he had no one, so it wasn’t like I blocked others from coming. I just felt he was rude and not at all flexible."

"Bonsoir, Un grand problème à l'arrivée : personne pour nous accueillir. Bien sûr, il était un peu plus de 20 h 30. Il y avait un numéro de téléphone à contacter mais je l'ai effacé par mégarde (mea culpa) mais je pense que tout était en anglais et que j'aurai eu du mal à me faire comprendre. Et de toute façon les clés étaient assez difficile à utiliser sans une aide extérieure. La moindre des choses eut été d'avoir un représentant de Guestready sur place même à une heure tardive. Heureusement...

"The most striking feature of the villa is the setting and the views over the ocean . Panoramic unobstructed views allowed us to view sunrise and sunset. Very spacious ( we were 6 adults) inside and outside Plenty of parking, overall clean except for some ants in a downstairs bedroom . Great location in garajau with restaurants groceries cafe/ bakery nearby. Only issue was the pool was not heated on our request. Manager response was not satisfactory. Otherwise this would be 5 star rated"

"An absolutely wonderful place to stay. Max the host was really helpful and provided us with excellent information so it was easy to find. The villa was well equipped and very clean and homely. It was located in a very peaceful and quiet residential area. We spent most of our time, when at the villa, sitting on the decking and enjoying the amazing views. Such a relaxing holiday."

"My family and I went to this villa for my children’s spring holiday and it was a disappointing experience. We arrived at the villa at the correct time, but were still made to wait for an hour and a half, because the property manager was late. This would not have been as great of an issue if the manager had communicated with me beforehand about her tardiness. We also tried to contact the VRBO through which the booking was made, but they tried to shrug off their responsibility by saying that they...

"Pros: Had a wonderful time in your Beach House! The views were more beautiful than I ever imagined. Family had one of our favorite vacations. Cons: Showers need immediate repair. First bedroom shower downstairs was stopped up and the pan filled with water. The other 2 bedroom showers leaked and flooded the bathroom floors. A little repair would make a big difference."

"The house, the location, the garden, everything is quite splendid. I was there for 3 months and enjoyed every minute. The hosts are very caring and went out of their way to make my stay enjoyable."

"Das Haus ist sehr schön eingerichtet, sehr modern und stylish. Die Lage hat uns gut gefallen. Man hat eine schöne Aussicht und es ist eine ruhige Umgebung. Man hört ein wenig den Flughafen, aber das hat uns nicht wirklich gestört. Man ist schnell unten im Zentrum mit dem Auto. Sehr praktisch. Ein Auto wird benötigt. Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur hat gut funktioniert, sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Schade war, dass es zum Duschen kaum warmes Wasser gibt. Der Wassertank erhitzt sich durch...

"Habitação com todas as comodidades necessárias para uns dias de descanso. Tem uma vista fantástica, lugar calmo e silencioso. O único ponto menos positivo é o acesso que é um pouquinho difícil, mas ao fim de algumas viagens descobrem-se acesso melhores."

"Ill start by saying Alvaro is amazing, before we got to Madeira I had some technical issues with my Insulin Pumps. I was getting to the end of what I had left, So I had to arrange an emergency pump delivery all the way from Canada. When we arrived the first thing he did was help me find where I needed to go to pick up my medical supplies, he made calls and organized it for me :) I am beyond thankful for his extra help ! Now for the actual stay.. I'll try my best to articulate the beauty of...

"We stayed at Vivenda da Esquina for 1 week recently. Everything was very good about it especially the spectacular panoramic sea view. We did find the immediate neighbourhood quite noisy however. There is building work going on across the road on another property and we heard dogs barking through the night and a cockerel crowing from 5am each morning. Overall very good but remember to pack ear plugs!"

"Con muchos detalles a la llegada en cuanto a víveres de primera necesidad"

"Lovely room and lovely hotel, very clean and very quiet. Breakfast was ok apart from the eggs, very strange taste and texture. We also used the pool near reception and I would absolutely stay again. Very friendly staff and lovely facilities!"

"Comfortable, but a shortage of bed linen and then the hot water was very sporadic and just sometimes just a trickle! Also no cushions for sun beds!These things didn’t cause us too much trouble, but thought I’d better mention them Annette"

"La propiedad estaba cuidada, la limpieza es buena, la persona que nos atendio ha sido muy amable y atenta.Recomendable para ir es tranquilo, pero tiene de todo y cerca la capital."
