The view is awesome. It's worth just for the view itself. It's close to the airport, 13 minutes by car.
We were 6 persons, it was enough space for all of us. The rooms are big, with high ceilings. There are 2 bathrooms but just one of them has a shower. It's a quiet place, you can see the mountain and the ocean.
Boasting a garden, shared lounge, terrace and free WiFi, Jaca Hostel Porto da Cruz is set in Porto da Cruz, 100 metres from Alagoa Beach and 100 metres from Maiata Beach.

Loved the location, far away from busy Funchal so it was very quiet at night (except for Pizza Fridays). Big social scene, easy to meet people and do activities with during the day. The attic is cute, and the curtains make it feel all private. Lovely outside area for breakfast and journaling. They also give you a towel
Offering garden views, House pc is an accommodation situated in Porto da Cruz, 600 metres from Alagoa Beach and 10 km from Santana's traditional houses.

Excellent location, large property with great views and nice swimming pool. Please disregard the negative comment about toilet roll on the review by 'Birznieksm Austria' as this is common practice throughout Madeira due to the nature of their waste water systems and processing.
Situated in the centre of Santana, this quaint, traditional hotel offers you a peaceful retreat with beautiful views of the mountains and the ocean
Though in a central location, Hotel O Colmo offers ...

The pool, vinyard, surrounding lookout points, it all added to the total relaxation. Breakfast was decent as far as buffets go. They did do some things cooked to order which was great. The staff in the bar were so nice, always great service too.

The hotel is really nice, off the beaten track just as we like it. A charming historical building with good modern facilities attached. The food was really good, and the staff helpful. Would definitely recommend it for those who like to be away from the busy towns, and like smaller hotels. Definitely need a hire car to take full advantage of exploring the island from this ideal base.
Beautifully situated little village with everything you need...
Beautifully situated little village with everything you need for a "slow life" relaxing, stress free stay! We visited almost all costal villages in Madera, and Porto da Cruz is by far our favourite!!!! We love this place and keep coming back here! :) Also, the is the best restaurant ever, A Pipa! Thoroughly recommended!

A small but very cozy town.
A small but very cozy town. Has few local supermarkets, few good restaurants and snack bars with a perfect food. Amazing rock views. Also you must visit a Madeira rum factory, that is located in this town and taste it. This town has 2 beaches and 1 local natural pool.

Unspoilt, charming town with beautiful views of the sea. Excellent restaurants serving fresh, traditional food at very reasonable prices.
Great sea water swimming pool and coastline walks.
Not easy if you’re using public transport as buses are infrequent.

Sleepy little fishing village surrounded by sloping hills...
Sleepy little fishing village surrounded by sloping hills and sheer cliffs. Magnificent scenery around. Ideal for surfers. Pleasant climate when we visited in April. Flowers all around in full bloom. If you're looking for an active holiday hiking in nature and tranquil evenings, this is the place to come. Having a head for heights is a bonus. Or take gentler trails to get used to sometimes dizzying drops at your own pace. We stayed outside of Porto da Cruz in a little house about 20 mins walk away nestling on a green hill that sloped gently into a valley. Small streams abound taking water down to the sea. Expect birdsong everywhere, especially in the mornings punctuated with cocks crowing from small farmsteads peppered around the slopes. Frogs also joined in with their springtime mating calls trilling the air. Food was simple but from high quality local produce. We'd recommend this area and a visit to Madeira to those needing to get back to nature and a sustainable approach to life. Not too much litter in and around the town. Either local groups clearing up or tourists in general are conscious and careful to respect the natural beauty of the environment by leaving as little trace of their passing as possible.

It's a small town, beach not usable, outdoor pool in bad conditions, room not clean (shower and floor ) two places for hiking: one is dangerous, one is steap and boring, no view
Everything is damp, not much sun
Large house with everything you may possibly need during your stay. Big balcony in the back with a beautiful view and a fireplace, great for eating outside. Parking place in front of the house. The owner was very nice to us, gave us fruit and vegetables from his own garden and even his own wine, which were all delicious. We were very satisfied, definitely recommend it. Porto da Cruz is also very nice place to stay overall, it's not crowded but has beaches and seawater pools, restaurants, shops, a distillery, and so on in the center.
The hotel is located on the very shore of the ocean - you can hear the waves in the room even with the balcony closed. The hotel has an excellent restaurant: the breakfast included in the payment was delicious and varied (you can choose a dish from the menu), in general, this restaurant is delicious - of all the places where I ate in Madeira, I liked it the most. Porto da Cruz is a very scenic place and this hotel helps you to enjoy.
Cute small hotel with an amazing view. Most of the rooms have balcony and Seaview. It's very close to the sea, one can hear the sound the waves. Staff was friendly. Room was fair, not too modern but clean. Restaurant was at ground floor. Breakfast and dinner were good. Staff was friendly. There are surf schools nearby and some nice walks. The view is really one of the nicest we had in maderia.
The location. We loved coming “home” to Porto da Cruz. Great and friendly people, good local food, and rainbows every day-usually doubles!
The space was terrific, beds very comfortable and plenty of hot water. We had planned hikes in the northeast while there and very happy everything was within 20 minutes drive. Luna was a fabulous host, very responsive and made us feel so relaxed.
Such a spacious place, we had lovely breakfasts on the huge terrace, it is perfectly situated in Porto da Cruz and the perfect location to discover the north of the island 💝 Ricardo was a great host and we will for sure recommend this place.
The beds were super comfortable and the accommodation made us feel at home.
Great restaurants, a super market and a playground a very close
We hadn’t stayed in Porto da Cruz before, it’s a quaint little surf town on the coast. The house is older but in a great location for anyone who wants to get around without using a car. The property had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, the beds were really hard so be prepared. Check out Dino’s Bar right under the house, fantastic poncha and a nice location for walking.
The house is located at the edge of the village to Porto da Cruz (5 mins downhill walk to village). The village is very cute, with a lovely natural salt water swimming pool maintained by local municipal (1.5€ for the adults), a few reasonable restaurants at the seafront, a bakery, and a supermarket. The house has a lovely garden and beautiful seaview.
Our 5 night stay in Vivenda Linda Vista was absolutely great. We loved the view from the terrace! Porto da Cruz, and this apartment, were for us a great base to explore some great hikes in the vicinity. You can also easily walk to the center of the village for a dinner or some drinks next to the sea. Totally recommended!
The studio is set up well - everything you need and very organized. Located close to a mini-mercado for conveniences. Just a short 5 minute drive to beautiful Porto Da Cruz and the surf spots. The studio is very clean and comfortable. There were a lot of thoughtful touches like a drying rack for clothes.
We were extremely happy with everything. A car is useful if you stay here to visit other parts of the island. You can easily walk to Porto da Cruz and the beaches around. Helpful and kind property owner made sure we had everything we needed. We'll definitely be back.
Tiny little house with a hidden sunny terrace in the centre of a beautiful village Porto da Cruz. It's close to the beach , shops, restaurants and surf spots. Our family loves Guadalupe's apartments. She is a great host! Bonus is a grill and hammock.
Beautiful house with a terrace and a garrage. Has beachy vibes and the photos are accurate to the reality. Very kind owners, good communication with them. We would love to come back one day, Porto da Cruz is one of the best villages in Madeira.
No breakfast. Very convenient to Porto da Cruz shore, restaurants and walking paths. The owners were very quick to respond to our needs and any issues with the lodging. Secure parking for our rental car.
The hotel had beach access, and it was beautiful. It was easy to drive around the island with a launch point of Porto da Cruz. The breakfast was delicious, and the room was quiet.
Porto Da Cruz is such a beautiful place, and jaca hostel is great. You'll feel home there. The staff is really nice and helpful. Don't miss out Ricardo's burgers and pizzas !
We had a fabulous stay. Jorge was very friendly and easy to communicate with. The location was incredible, we loved staying in Porto da Cruz! Thank you again Jorge!
