“Santa Cruz Village Hotel strikes me as a particularly thoughtful choice for Madeira, not least for its location so near the airport. The focus on local cuisine and wellness facilities, including that tempting outdoor pool, suggests a genuine effort to offer both comfort and a taste of the island's character; plus, I appreciate the practical touches like free parking. It seems a solid base for exploring the region without sacrificing convenience.”
