Hotel Quinta Do Furao, hotel in Santana

Featuring stunning views of the north-east coast of the Island of Madeira and the surrounding mountains, this 4-star hotel offers rooms with free Wi-Fi and a balcony.

Amazing breakfast with a variety of food. Amazing location, since we were looking for a place outside of Funchal but still not far from there with a car. Smily and friendly staff. We were staying there 4 days for our honeymoon and it felt so quiet and peaceful we would have wanted to stay longer if we could. Amazing sea view from the room!

Casa da Olides - T3, hotel in Santana

Offering quiet street views, Casa da Olides - T3 is an accommodation situated in Santana, 39 km from Marina do Funchal and 47 km from Porto Moniz Natural Swimming Pools.

Our hostess Sandra and her mother were very welcoming, and we very much appreciated the homemade biscuits and madeira wine and fruit when we arrived and the traditional cake to take home with us. The house itself was beautifully decorated, the bedrooms in particular with their very comfortable beds, and we loved all the extra cushions, cozy blankets for the sofa and the generous supply of towels in the bathroom.

Paraíso Resiliente, hotel in Santana

Featuring garden views, Paraíso Resiliente offers accommodation with a garden, barbecue facilities and a shared lounge, around 5.4 km from Santana's traditional houses.

I stayed here for a night and enjoyed it. I liked the old style and that it seemed organic. This was something different for me during my travel. I enjoyed sitting in the big open living room at night with the fireplace going. Guests are also allowed to use the kitchen and they also offered free vegetables. The lady working here that I met in the morning was very nice! The huge property is so beautiful with all kinds of plants and flowers and even animals.

Casa de Campo Arco de São Jorge by An Island Apart, hotel in Santana

Located in Santana in the Madeira Islands region, Casa de Campo Arco de São Jorge by An Island Apart has a balcony. This holiday home offers accommodation with a patio.

Everything was perfect. Nice and clean with everything you need. Maybe for longer stays you’ll feel the lack of a washing machine, but for our 5 nights stay we didn’t need it. The fact that there was coffee was just the cherry on top. The host was replying really fast to our messages. Fast as in instant.

    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.

    It is a lovely, peaceful and relaxing place. 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.

    Our stay at Santana in Nature was a delightful experience. The beautiful surroundings were truly breathtaking, and the ample parking space added to the convenience. The traditional food and drink offerings were excellent. The presence of a pool and hot tub was a nice touch, although we didn’t get a chance to try them due to our busy schedule. The service was generally pleasant, with the waitress being particularly friendly and accommodating.

    We were here for 3 nights, we arranged check-in and check-out ourselves to our full satisfaction, upon arrival you just fill out the form and send a photo of it. The apartment is fully equipped, including a washing machine, microwave oven, kettle, toaster and kitchen utensils. The location is ideal for trips to Santana and nearby levadas. Parking is directly in front of the house. Wifi without problems :) Thank you

    The room was clean. The hotel itself is nice. Owner was very helpful and friendly, adviced, what to visit nearby and where to eat. The room size was very small, but it was not a problem for us. Every morning we were awakened by the crowing of cocks in Santana, which was so nice to me! :D Well placed base for hiking and in general well placed logistically. Great snack bar close to the hotel - Adega do Compadre!

    A nice accommodation in Santana. Very friendly host, she even allowed us to come very early for our check in. A nice spacious room with a sharable washing machine and dryer. Very quiet place for a good sleeping experience, we couldn't wake up in the morning because the sleep was so good. Close to many restaurants and the great bakery Delicias da Bia.

    Santana in Nature was an excellent surprise! The staff went above and beyond to make my stay at the hotel and in the area enjoyable and comfortable. My economy room was beautiful and spacious. I was also really happy to soak in the whirlpool after long hikes. There are also several beautiful hikes accessible by foot directly from the hotel or by bus.

    Lovely typical older style home in beautiful gardens. You have the option to use kitchen facilities should you wish. Very nice breakfast provided and large communal lounge. Place was immaculately clean and staff very friendly. Very good value for money. Santana provides a good base for exploring the island - great access to some lovely hikes.

    we really liked the Casas de Campo. The staff were great. The breakfast was quite good and included items baked by the owner. The bed was comfy and the living area good. Santana afternoons and evenings can be cooler when the clouds come in but the heating took the edge off quickly. The kitchen was simple but adequate for meal preparation.

    Staff were super helpful. We were in the best room for the floor we were on (2nd floor of pink house). We were delayed because of not being able to land on the island due to high winds. Communication from the hotel was excellent and our room was ready for when we arrived.
