The view is awesome. It's worth just for the view itself. It's close to the airport, 13 minutes by car.
We were 6 persons, it was enough space for all of us. The rooms are big, with high ceilings. There are 2 bathrooms but just one of them has a shower. It's a quiet place, you can see the mountain and the ocean.
Boasting a garden, shared lounge, terrace and free WiFi, Jaca Hostel Porto da Cruz is set in Porto da Cruz, 100 metres from Alagoa Beach and 100 metres from Maiata Beach.

Loved the location, far away from busy Funchal so it was very quiet at night (except for Pizza Fridays). Big social scene, easy to meet people and do activities with during the day. The attic is cute, and the curtains make it feel all private. Lovely outside area for breakfast and journaling. They also give you a towel
Offering garden views, House pc is an accommodation situated in Porto da Cruz, 600 metres from Alagoa Beach and 10 km from Santana's traditional houses.

Excellent location, large property with great views and nice swimming pool. Please disregard the negative comment about toilet roll on the review by 'Birznieksm Austria' as this is common practice throughout Madeira due to the nature of their waste water systems and processing.
Situated in Porto da Cruz and only 200 metres from Maiata Beach, Domus Dino features accommodation with city views, free WiFi and free private parking.

A small but very cozy town.
A small but very cozy town. Has few local supermarkets, few good restaurants and snack bars with a perfect food. Amazing rock views. Also you must visit a Madeira rum factory, that is located in this town and taste it. This town has 2 beaches and 1 local natural pool.

Unspoilt, charming town with beautiful views of the sea.
Unspoilt, charming town with beautiful views of the sea. Excellent restaurants serving fresh, traditional food at very reasonable prices.
Great sea water swimming pool and coastline walks.
Not easy if you’re using public transport as buses are infrequent.

Sleepy little fishing village surrounded by sloping hills...
Sleepy little fishing village surrounded by sloping hills and sheer cliffs. Magnificent scenery around. Ideal for surfers. Pleasant climate when we visited in April. Flowers all around in full bloom. If you're looking for an active holiday hiking in nature and tranquil evenings, this is the place to come. Having a head for heights is a bonus. Or take gentler trails to get used to sometimes dizzying drops at your own pace. We stayed outside of Porto da Cruz in a little house about 20 mins walk away nestling on a green hill that sloped gently into a valley. Small streams abound taking water down to the sea. Expect birdsong everywhere, especially in the mornings punctuated with cocks crowing from small farmsteads peppered around the slopes. Frogs also joined in with their springtime mating calls trilling the air. Food was simple but from high quality local produce. We'd recommend this area and a visit to Madeira to those needing to get back to nature and a sustainable approach to life. Not too much litter in and around the town. Either local groups clearing up or tourists in general are conscious and careful to respect the natural beauty of the environment by leaving as little trace of their passing as possible.

It's a small town, beach not usable, outdoor pool in bad conditions, room not clean (shower and floor ) two places for hiking: one is dangerous, one is steap and boring, no view
Everything is damp, not much sun
The apartment was very comfy, it has everything the family of 2, 3 or 4 may need plus the view! The host Guadalupe was very nice :) The garrage was a real asset once you get use to parking in it. But once you do, you may as well consider yourself a local in Madeira :) We spent a week in Feb 2022 and we loved everything about it. Very private and very Madrean. You cant compare it to a hotel because it feels like home. We can recommend it to anybody. And Porto da Cruz is the best!
Very nice place to meet other travelers! The vibe was very good, everybody was open to talking and hanging out. But it was quiet in the evenings (from 23h I would say) so you can also find some rest if you need to.
Porto da Cruz is beautiful, the hostel has a great location next to a little restaurant and bakery and the swimming pool was basically around the corner.
Also, the staff is very nice! They organized a burger night!
This accommodation was excellent, we had a wonderful time there. The furniture was beautiful and everything was clean. The owner was very friendly. The accommodation is located very close to the ocean in the beautiful area of Porto da Cruz. The house had everything we needed. If you're looking for tranquility and peace, you will definitely find it in this location. We would definitely love to come back.
Cute small hotel with an amazing view. Most of the rooms have balcony and Seaview. It's very close to the sea, one can hear the sound the waves. Staff was friendly. Room was fair, not too modern but clean. Restaurant was at ground floor. Breakfast and dinner were good. Staff was friendly. There are surf schools nearby and some nice walks. The view is really one of the nicest we had in maderia.
The location. We loved coming “home” to Porto da Cruz. Great and friendly people, good local food, and rainbows every day-usually doubles!
The space was terrific, beds very comfortable and plenty of hot water. We had planned hikes in the northeast while there and very happy everything was within 20 minutes drive. Luna was a fabulous host, very responsive and made us feel so relaxed.
In this place you will the best organic breakfast in your life, much better choices than even in 5-star hotels. Hosts are just truly amazing, very kind and nice atmosphere is around. Levada is very near from the house, you can start your journey right there. And the panoramic views are stunning. It is better to stay in that part of Porto da Cruz than close to the beach ;) recommended
We hadn’t stayed in Porto da Cruz before, it’s a quaint little surf town on the coast. The house is older but in a great location for anyone who wants to get around without using a car. The property had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, the beds were really hard so be prepared. Check out Dino’s Bar right under the house, fantastic poncha and a nice location for walking.
We really loved our stay in Porto da Cruz in Guadalupes apartment. The apartment is everything we expected. The kitchen is well equipped, it is clean and lovely decorated. The location is also great. It is close to a small supermarket, the bus stop, and the beach. You can even reach some hikes by foot. I would recommend to hike along the north coast towards canical.
The house is located at the edge of the village to Porto da Cruz (5 mins downhill walk to village). The village is very cute, with a lovely natural salt water swimming pool maintained by local municipal (1.5€ for the adults), a few reasonable restaurants at the seafront, a bakery, and a supermarket. The house has a lovely garden and beautiful seaview.
Our 5 night stay in Vivenda Linda Vista was absolutely great. We loved the view from the terrace! Porto da Cruz, and this apartment, were for us a great base to explore some great hikes in the vicinity. You can also easily walk to the center of the village for a dinner or some drinks next to the sea. Totally recommended!
Mateus house is a great accommodation in Porto da Cruz. The host is very friendly and responsive. The interior is nice, modern and complete - everything relevant is available. The house is spacious (two floors) and in addition offers a large terrace on the top. The location in the heart of Porto da Cruz is wonderful.
The studio is set up well - everything you need and very organized. Located close to a mini-mercado for conveniences. Just a short 5 minute drive to beautiful Porto Da Cruz and the surf spots. The studio is very clean and comfortable. There were a lot of thoughtful touches like a drying rack for clothes.
I did not stay in the guest house because there was a confusion with the booking, but in the main hotel Vila Bela!
The room was nice with a little balcony and went right out onto the sea. I could hear the sea all night which I loved! The staff is friendly and the food was good. Breakfast was nice.
We were extremely happy with everything. A car is useful if you stay here to visit other parts of the island. You can easily walk to Porto da Cruz and the beaches around. Helpful and kind property owner made sure we had everything we needed. We'll definitely be back.
We had a great stay at hotel Costa Linda. The view was breathtaking and everything is at walking distance. There is a great public swimming pool and amazing restaurants. The bed was huge and very comfortable. We would definitely recommend!
No breakfast. Very convenient to Porto da Cruz shore, restaurants and walking paths. The owners were very quick to respond to our needs and any issues with the lodging. Secure parking for our rental car.
The hotel had beach access, and it was beautiful. It was easy to drive around the island with a launch point of Porto da Cruz. The breakfast was delicious, and the room was quiet.
