Everything was perfect. I got all the info about the self-check-in beforehand and all went smoothly. Big appartment with anything you could possibly need. The host was always just a message away from helping you in whatever you may need. Big advantage with the parking spot, which is underground, safe from other cars or people.
Just 5 mins away from the airport by car. Merely 7 mins away from a big supermarket in which you can find everything you need. Couldn't recommend this accomodation more. If you find it available for your trip, do not miss it!
Boasting quiet street views, Moradia Casa Feliz offers accommodation with barbecue facilities and a patio, around 20 km from Marina do Funchal.

Santa Cruz is a small seaside village at the end of the runway. There are enough cafes and restaurants to keep you occupied along with some nice little parks and a good play ground if you have kids. The weather is just perfect.

Very good service by everybody, even the manager helped me get my car out, the breakfast staff did food for my special needs, the reception were very welcoming, it was clean & modern & I liked the mint water & that the hotel has a private garage.
Very good standard close to the airport & the small town center.
Only minus was that I'd wished for a heated jacuzzi .-)

Nice village from were to start exploring the eastern part of Madeira. The airport and the motorway are nearby and you'll be in Funchal in 30min. by car.
There isn't much to do in Santa Cruz but there is a few bars and restaurants to enjoy the evening, a public swimming pool, a couple of shops and you can spend some time on the beach.

The house located between Garajau and Canico.
The house located between Garajau and Canico. Cristo Rei in Garajau is a must to visit. Here hop on the cable car and take a look to Garajau beach. The beach is stony, there're much more nicer beaches to visit. Worth to eat at Talho do Canico, a tarditional grill bar in the centre of Canico. Taste tangerine poncha in La Carbonara in Garajau, the closest bar to the house.
If you visit Madeira in April don't miss out the flower carneval in Funchal!
Visit Sanatana to see the old traditional triangle shaped houses and visit Faial and Porto Moniz for the spectacular beach views.

I would say, Santa Cruz is not worth visiting unless you have an early flight... There is nothing special to see. The Palm beach does not seem very nice and clean (there are big black stones on the beach - they are not comfortable to lay and to go to swim).
The marina is quite short and it finishes by the swimming pool and the akvapark, but they were closed in March.
I had a dinner at the restaurant Biletheira and the tuna steak was really good (12 Eur)!
Santa Cruz is very near Funchal, so you can go to Funchal by bus and you can spend your time in the capital city.
Stayed just for one night before my flight in the morning. The hotel is directly in the center of Santa Cruz, it is quite hard to find parking there. Half an hour walking distance to the airport but it is possible to catch Bolt for cca 4 euros to the airport even at 4am. The hotel seemed to accommodate mostly senior people so it was quite quiet. Good deal for your money if you need to stay somewhere close to the airport before your flight.
- Clean hotel.
- Very nice people work there. Always helpful. Big plus.
- Good localization if you like to go to the beach, easy access from the hotel directly there.
- Good localization to the airport, especially if you travel early in the morning. Just 5 minutes with TAXI.
- They offer a breakfast box if you need to check out earlier.
- Wide offer of drinks.
Very friendly and guest-oriented staff who do their best to make us feel at home.
The hotel grounds are well maintained and green.
The outdoor pool is heated to a comfortable temperature. The ocean pool offers a magnificent panoramic view of the ocean and Santa Cruz bay. Breakfast and dinner were incredible.
Thank you for a lovely stay. Everything was 10/10.
A lovely hotel, very clean and comfortable. Really nice helpful staff. Excellent buffet breakfast. Good location...a short walk to the town with its' many restaurants and promenade walk. Can thoroughly recommend it, would certainly stay again.
Very good hotel close to the airport, with a swimming pool, close to the beach and restaurants, nice spacious room with a balcony. The breakfast was good and staff was helpful.
