Maria was super nice, we forgot to do the shopping for breakfast, she brought us some food. The place is really chill, outside of the town.

Very nice and helpful staff. Free eggs, vegetables and fruit every day. Very interesting garden/farm area to explore. Cozy indoor fireplace. Chill areas outside. Big kitchen. Great for cooking your own meals. The owner was also very helpful with getting a ride to different locations. Thank you, Gonçalo! :)

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.
Great apartment in quite and nice Santana. This property is huge (we had a 100m2 apartment for two people for one night, so plenty of place. View from the balcony is amazing! Bed was comfortable and overall cleanness was good. Appliances and furniture were in a great shape, so really nothing to complain about! Communication with the host was super pleasant, and also she recommended us a restaurant which was super nice (Malta Gira). Huge bonus was a washing machine! And all this is topped up with a an amazing price.
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.
My husband and I loved our stay here! The apartment is very spacious with all the possible comforts, washing machine included. The lady who welcomed us was the sweetest, she gave us some local cookies and invited us to use the herbs and the lettuce from her garden in case we wanted to prepare some food at home. I recommend this place to anyone who is going to Santana and surrounding, you will feel right at home!
Very comfortable and spacious accommodation in the village part of Santana. Big living room with fire, large terrace, fully equipped kitchen, two full-sized bedrooms. Two kilometers to Santana center. Very good base for Ruivo ridge and south-east part of Madeira trips (Porto da Cruz, Machico, Canical, Ribeiro Frio are within 30 minutes by car).
Everything about the suite was fantastic. Wish every hotel was this well thought out and functional. Great view, great shower, great kitchenette, great cat. Thank you for having the heat on, nights were still chilly, and not everyplace in Madeira did!
The woman who checked us in and later served us at the restaurant was so lovely. Friendly and funny. I’m sorry I can’t accurately remember her name. Elina? If we ever return to Madeira she is the number one reason we will choose Santana in Nature.
Beautiful grounds (even in February) with some trees and plant flowering and lots of greenery. Beautiful building with lots of character. Rooms were clean and we'll made up. Neat that they have a traditional Santana house on the property.
Very clean, compared to the rest of Madeira, feels totally different. Much room for private parking, well equipped kitchen. Nice countryside location, can hear the village roosters and dogs :) Levadas close. Santana center close.
It is a nice, clean and well-kept house at a walking distance from Santana. The owner was extremely friendly and responsive. At our arrival we were welcomed with a bottle of Madeira wine and traditional cookies.
Everything was perfect - no mold, everything you need to cook is there, clean, nice smelling apartment. Lili also gave some recommendations what to visit in Santana - so we were just happy with our stay
Beautiful and peaceful location, loved all the sounds from nature. Walkable to Santana village, wonderful staff who was very attentive to us and our little daughter.
The location of this hotel is absolutely stunning and the room was amazing. We also appreciated the friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommend!
