Set in Santa Maria and only 200 metres from Praia António Sousa, Ocean Roof offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking.

New one bedroom apartment with kitchenette, living area and wrap around balcony. Minimally furnished but with everything I needed. Tiled flooring. A safe for valuables. Great location to access beaches and the town. I felt very safe walking back in the evening. Great sunbathing deck with sea views and a small pool to cool off.

Residencial Cabo Verde Palace, hotel in Santa Maria

Located within 700 metres of Praia de Santa Maria and 1.3 km of Ponta da Fragata Beach in Santa Maria, Residencial Cabo Verde Palace features accommodation with seating area.

We had a delightful stay in the Palace. The rooms are spacious with a very big bed and AC which helped with the hot weather The little kitchen has all basic things you might need. Eveything is clean and neat. Milu, Beth and all the staff are very nice, kind and welcoming and help you with any problem you might encounter. The terrace is really nice too, you can see the sea from there and have their tasty generous breakfast there or just chill.

Casa Torre, hotel in Santa Maria

Offering a garden and sea view, Casa Torre is set in Palmeira, 1.6 km from Fontona Beach and 1.8 km from Fontona.

First good impression: the proprietor collected us from the airport (otherwise unusual). Wonderful Apartment with a view of the sea, where we got a welcome drink. 3 Bedrooms 2 storeys, 2 terraces, spaceous Kirchen and living room. Open- minded, generous proprietor who gave us information about all the island and was always at our disposal to help us whenever needed. Besides, Palmeira is an authentic fishing village and you come into contact with the local people- not so easily possible elsewhere.

    Lucio is not only a great host, but also a known and beloved celebrity of Santa Maria! His apartment is the perfect budget-friendly accomodation for a couple, providing all necessities (+ a few nice extras) in a convenient location. Strongly recommended!

    It was clean, comfortable, pretty, classy, not fancy. A short walk from the beach, but near by houses, stores and restaurants of locals, which makes it a very authentic and enjoyable experience. We also stayed at other places closer to the beach, with views and pools, but with a very touristic and artificial environment. Breakfast was simple but good, serving omeletes and different style eggs on demand. Great value for money!!

    Andrea is a great host! It’s a small hostel and people tend to stay longer than a week so you’ll get to know everyone during your stay, which adds to a great vibe. Further, the location is superb and supermarkets, restaurants and beach are all within a two minute walk. Would definitely stay here again :) PS: the hostel actually looks better in person compared to the photos!

    Very nice location in the center of santa maria. Near the beach but not in the more touristic resort area, closer to the locals in a nice way.

    Andrea is a great host. He makes you feel at home right from the beginning. I enjoyed the food and drinks for the new year party. Clean and tidy dorms. WiFi is strong. The toilets are clean too. Walkable distance to the taxi station to go to espargos and airport. 2mins walking to the beach.
