Edite

Portugal

Santa Beach House is a well kept secret within a 5 mere minute walk to one of the most natural beaches on this coast. It has a villa feeling to it (large swimming pool, terrace, garden, bbq area) while indoors, its spacious areas (best equipped kitchen I've seen, huge living and dining rooms, large washroom) make you feel at home, because it is in fact a home. The ambiance is friendly and relaxing for surfers and non-surfers alike. The staff were welcoming, friendly, flexible, and most accomodating. The mattresses were comfortable, beds wood-solid and the lockers large. Santa Beach House is an oasis for travellers of all ages to create memories and long to return to Santa Cruz. Because I have, I strongly recommend it.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Very nice holiday accommodation, very well maintained surroundings (pool, tennis court, sports and basketball court, green areas and barbecue areas). Spacious flats with very good facilities. Easy to reach and safe. Our landlord has contacted us several times to ask if all is well, if there is anything we would like support/help with. This is very helpful in another country where you are not so familiar.

My room with private bathroom was immaculate. Just lovely. I wish I could stay longer. My hosts were amazing and this hotel/hostel is a family run business. I travel a lot and this was a great experience. Close to the beach too and restaurants.

Exceptionally beautiful garden with a spacious, clean pool of perfect temperature. Super friendly and helpful personnel who make you feel at home and have good suggestions. Great location near the laid back and beautiful beach of Santa Cruz and in relative proximity to Lisbon, Sintra, Nazaré and Obidos. Our children of many different ages all loved our stay!

The hosts are really lovely, kind and they really love to host people. They prepared for me an extra vegan breakfast (which was amazing). The place is quiet, perfectly organized, clean and cozy. If I go to Santa Cruz again, I would go to the hostel again for sure! :)
