Situated in Santa Cruz, this home is the ideal base for discovering the city in comfort and style. With large windows to let the sunlight in throughout the day and a comfy living space, you can still appreciate the stunning views of the Atlantic ocean even if you're relaxing inside. Step out onto the private balcony and sink into the hot bubbles of the Jacuzzi tub, or catch some rays on the sun loungers. You'll have the choice of dining alfresco for every meal if you so wish, and the interior dining table is great for getting some remote work finished during the day.

It's an easy walk down to Praia Santa Cruz, and due to the proximity to Madeira Island Airport you'll have the chance to see planes passing over to land during your stay. Take a stroll into the small city to immerse yourself in local life, whether it's picking up some essentials at a mini-market or trying some local cuisine at a nearby restaurant. This home is ideal for those looking for somewhere to live like a local and enjoy the golden beaches and gorgeous sea views.
