Very close to the airport (4 minute cab ride). Very nice buffet breakfast with omelette bar and lots of fresh fruit and a variety of other breakfast items. Nice pool. Right off the ocean. We walked to a nice restaurant for dinner. We got lucky because our flight was cancelled and we needed a place to stay and they were great.
Quinta Santo Antonio Da Serra is located in the Madeira countryside, only 11 mi from Funchal. All of the self contained apartments have a real wood fireplace and a balcony.

The Quinta was very nice. Bed was extremely comfortable. There was a fireplace but we didn't use. Beautiful flowers around the grounds. The location is up in the mountains about 1/2 hour from Funchal. There was a Sunday market in town as well as some small markets and places to eat. A storm Monday night took out the electricity when we awoke in the morning. Very clean place and lots of room. We had a 1 bedroom unit. Was great to have a kitchen and fridge to make coffee in the morning.

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.
Hotel staff was exceptionally helpful. We had an early morning flight after our stay and we were not only provided with complimentary transport to the airport but also some packed lunch for our way home. The hotel itself is located just a quick walk from Santa Cruz city centre so if you don’t want to stay only on the property and don’t have a car you can easily get there by foot. We were a bit worried that the hotel will be loud due to the close proximity to both the highway and the airport but you can’t really hear anything.
Location is the best advantage of this apartment. Close to the airport (even on foot), close to the beach (rocky), 20 minutes by car to Funchal. Santa Cruz is a nice and silent city with several good restaurants and rocky beach. Apartment offers good view on planes landing at the airport, and great view on the ocean. There are washing machine and dishwasher, which are useful in case of longer stay. Garage parking lot is also very convenient.
I had a couple of extra days in Madeira waiting for my flight home. Hotel Bom Jesus fitted my needs perfectly. Santa Cruz is a pretty little place, not far from the airport. The hotel staff were very helpful and welcoming, lent me a phone charger connection. The hotel is clean with quirky, attractive furnishings in public places and a nice pool on the third floor terrace. A nice quiet retreat for a few days sun, reading, relaxing.
The location is perfect, 2 minutes from the sea, many restaurants nearby, good breakfast in the SuperMeu shop. Santa Cruz is a nice little village, 15 minutes from the airport by foot. Friendly staff, you can leave your luggage after checkout.
Lovely small hotel right in the heart of Santa Cruz. Excellent location and 2 minutes from centre.
I found the staff very helpful and pleasant. Really good value for money.
