Pros:

Miejscowość Santa Cruz bardzo kameralna, restauracja ROTA DOS SABORES z lokalną kuchnią, ponchą i biką umilała wieczory.
Lokalizacja w bliskim sąsiedztwie z lotniskiem, widok z balkonu na pas startowy stał się atrakcją o poranku.
Kuchnia w samym hotelu bardzo Nas zachwyciła- duży wybór oraz show cooking- omlety, pancakes i jaja sadzone.
Basen z saunami i zewnętrznym basenem również w lutym umilały wieczory.
Gorąco polecamy wybór hotelu Vile Galle w Santa Cruz.
Maderę polecamy z wypożyczeniem samochodu i zwiedzaniem we własnym tempie- stolica zachwyca, Wawrzyniec urzeka, Achadas da Cruz zachwyca surowym pięknem...
W samej stolicy polecamy baseny lawowe DOCA DO CAVACAS z świetną restauracją z tarasem i widokiem na klif.
Polecamy ;)
