Lili and Marco are great hosts, very friendly, responsive and they really care about you having a great time. The apartment was as described, very clean and had everything we needed. The quite large terrace was perfect to enjoy our breakfasts, coffees in the afternoon or dinner. The location is also great, very quiet area, we loved that you could hear the water running through the Levada during the day and night. Within 10min we could walk to the centre of Santana (up and down as typical on Madeira). The house is on the route to the Levada do Caldeirão Verde (<10min by car) and within 20min you reach the parking of Achada do Teixeira from where you can start a hike to Pico Ruivo.
We especially appreciated the evenings in Santana, when the day tourists left and the city became calmer. It gives you time to visit the traditional houses with almost no one else and enjoy restaurants/bars with few tourists and locals.
All in all we had a great stay here and can recommend it.
Offering quiet street views, Casa da Olides - Studio is an accommodation situated in Santana, 39 km from Marina do Funchal and 47 km from Porto Moniz Natural Swimming Pools.

Our hostess Sandra and her mother were very welcoming, and we very much appreciated the homemade biscuits and madeira wine and fruit when we arrived and the traditional cake to take home with us. The house itself was beautifully decorated, the bedrooms in particular with their very comfortable beds, and we loved all the extra cushions, cozy blankets for the sofa and the generous supply of towels in the bathroom.

Depends on each individual expectations, this is not a noise place with nitclubs, but it is very good for relaxation, countryside but wonderful, people are going earlier to bed and is so peaceful, you can find diferit restaurant on the village with a lot of options, I highly recommend it if you like the tranquility and nature

The hotel is very pleasant.
The hotel is very pleasant. It is good to be together with nature and with beautiful views over the sea and mountains. However, check-in took a long time, we waited 1 hour and a half for them to prepare the room, and when we got to the room, there were no pool towels, we had to ask at reception. Another situation that I didn't like was the booking of the wine tasting and visit to wine house. We were refused the wine tasting because we had already checked out at 12:00h. So we asked if we could do it before check out and they said yes, but we got there and nobody showed up.

Don't stay in Santana longer than 4 days and make sure you have a rental car to get to all the levadas easily. The restaurants/cafes in Santana are not that good/nice. The only tourist attraction in Santana are the famous Santana houses and the nearby hiking area Queimadas.

We made the mistake of not hiring a car before we got to the hotel. We figured we would see what Santana was like and then hire a car locally, this was a big mistake! Once we got to our hotel, it was clear that we would need a car to get around as nothing is close or easy to get to. We're super active people but local hikes are 30 mins just to get to. We were told it would be £630 to hire a car for 5 days. Our advice would be to hire a car ahead of your trip.
Santana is beautiful and has such a variety of things to do and see. Other advice would be to not judge a book by its cover when it comes to restaurants, we ate the best stake in a tiny little restaurant that looked pretty grim from outside.
You probably wont want to spend all your time in Santana but its a great base.

I wanted time to chill, and Santana did that.
Lovely scenery.
Eat at the Serra e Mar
Don't bother with the tourists traditional houses, there are plenty of genuine ones in the town, some very rustic

We love Santana in the winter.
We love Santana in the winter. The tourists are all in Funchal, so you have the place for yourself.
Santana is ideally placed for the best hikes in Madeira: Pico Ruivo (at least 3 different hikes start here, all top-class), Queimadas with its amazing hikes and others. Also a short drive to the airport.
There are some great restaurants in Santana and the adjoining villages and all the services you may need.
The apartment was perfect for my family 2 adults and 2 kids. We had everything we needed. The location is easy to find and the communication with the host was perfect.
Having the opportunity for self check-in was very important as we arrived late in the evening.
The supermarket is in the way to the apartment in Santana.
Car rental is needed and parking place is available.
It is situated in the middle of nature.
From the location we drove between 30 min-1h:30 min to the important places of the island.
The host is incredibly kind and ready to help anytime.
The location is perfect for Pico ruivo and Levada de Caldeirao verde. Santana is pretty, in the middle of nature and fresh air. We had a shopping mall and a gas station really close.
The air conditioners in the 2 bedrooms help to cool down the apartment because the temperature outside is hot and a bit humid.
The key box made our arrival easier, we were independent with the time we arrived and left the apartment.
Great place to stay in North/East Madeira especially if you have a rented car - free parking, in the midle of roads to several tracks, trips, markets & view points. Even the Hotel terace and rooms have nice view. Two typical old Santana houses are part of the Hotel complex. Free swimming pool & whirpool on the terace with beautiful sunset view, playroom with pool table, restaurant in the second building. Breakfast was good.
The location is a good starting point if you have a car to several great hiking trails. Apartment staff was very helpful and gave us a much bigger apartment than what we originally booked. We could even borrow an umbrella against the rain. Breakfast and the whole breakfasting location was very nice and harmonic. There were also three very nice cats in the garden.
Rui is a fantastic host. Santana was the perfect place for us to stay for a week in Madeira. Lots of places to eat nearby. All very reasonable. Close to hikes. Swam every day at Praia do Faial. Don't miss the pastries at Bia, literally 2 min drive away from here. And once more Rui is wonderful, recommendations for everything you could ask for.
Very nice stay. Nice building, located in the center of Santana, but on a quiet street. Good organisation of rooms, with a shared terrace with a sea view, even a place to dry the clothing, overall a lot of space for a very comfortable stay. Good breakfast. Very nice host lady, always with a smile. One of our best stays on the island.
The property is very conveniently located to the Santana houses, Pico Ruivo and other great hikes in the area. In order to get there you need a car. The house is very spacious with lots of special touch and decor. It has absolutely everything a family with kids would be needed for their stay.
Casa do Manuel was clean, spacious, and had a comfortable bed. Fully equipped kitchen with everything we needed. Private terrace which was perfect for eating breakfast in the sun. Walking distance from "downtown" Santana. Friendly and helpful hosts.
The atmosphere in this hotel, felt like coming home! We felt a little melancholy when we left, and when looking back. It was our best stay on the island. 5/5, will return.
Nicest staff, a calm and relaxing room & a big breakfast buffet.
we found the location perfect for hiking and trail running, and the staff were really nice!
We ate mostly at the hotel as we found every restaurant in Santana had the same menu, but B&B nature had the best food, service and view
It is a nice place, old in some way, quite, charming, friendly staff, but I can't say that is not as a 4 star Hotel , when I compare to other hotels we've been.
Great location, modern and clean apartment with a nice view, close to the center of Santana, super hosts. We had a great time, definitely will come back again.
Cute house with a nice garden.
You could use the kitchen if you wanted to cook your own food or keep things in the fridge. More like a B&B than a hotel.
