Very relaxing week spent in Porto Santo. Close to a wonderful beach, quiet and empty surroundings great for long walks at the beach. Or reading a book in the hammocks. The sunrise from the tent was magical. You could hear the sound of the waves when you fall asleep and as soon as you wake up. This stay is all you need when you want to take it very slow and treat your body and soul. On top you had all the amenities you need such as a fridge, oven, fully equipped kitchen and ice cube machine. Everything was spotless clean at all times and most importantly the staff was helpful, friendly and more than willing to share stories about the island. 100% recommended!

Catavento is a converted former shop or workshop on the main street. The living area, bathroom and kitchen are well and practically furnished. It is not an IKEA showroom, but of good quality and taste. This also applies to the outside area, which is visible from the outside. All information and photos of the landlord correspond to reality. Beach, supermarket and restaurants just a few steps away. We hardly noticed the traffic on the main road. However, the neighbouring house is being completely renovated and built, which could take a few more weeks.

A great place to relax and wind down away from the hustle and bustle of daily lives. And the food at the supermarket Pingo Doce is really amazing !!! They have lamb , octopus , clams and you name it and the menu changes everyday ! Get a mountain bike to see the island at your own pace as the roads are very bicycle friendly.

The place is very quite and with very nice Long Beach with amazing sea color.
There are bar on the beach making party with deejays.
When you arrive on the island if you haven’t rented any car you might face problem finding taxi.
Today I had the ferry at noon and I discovered that the public transport stop to work at 11. This is crazy and only to assure income to taxis which often are not enough. In any case the place is nice and after you learned a few lessons you want to come back.

Very nice little island, perfect to relax for 4-7 days as beach holiday "pre-course" for a Madeira hiking/action holiday. Not as green as Madeira, but has beautiful beaches & views, also some nice hikes.

Not like Madeira - easy, peaceful, rather flat desert island. You can spend time in the beach, "climb" one of 3 "mountains", walk along hiking trails for nice views, go kayaking, visit sand dunes (unlike any other dunes I've seen). With a car you can visit most of the spots in 2 days, without a car - a week is more than enough.

We were staying in Funchal and it was great to get over to Porto Santos for a couple of days. We got the ferry over, the ferry only runs once a day - early morning out and late evening back, so plenty of time to explore if you are just going for the day. We went overnight, which was just right for us, and stayed in the very lovely 16 Porto Santos apartments. The beaches were lovely, and not busy at all. We went on the open top bus tour, which was a great way to see the island. Plenty of local restaurants and cafes to chose from. All in all, well recommended for a short break if you are holidaying in Funchal.
The hosts were very sweet, friendly and helpful. The apartment was perfect for a couple and the view was out of this world. We spent hours on the beautiful balcony and had relaxing evenings with netflix in front on the view. We were also able to borrow the scooter free of charge, which helped us a lot getting around the island and to the house. That was a major plus. Would really recommend renting this apartment!
.Perfect beach location with stunning views. Guest always in focus. Client oriented always utterly helpful staff. Perfectly clean and comfortable rooms and apartments. An idyllic holiday site to escape December weather of North and Central Europe. Still within EU. I will definitely keep returning. Delicious meals in hotel restaurant. And more and more. Bike rental at site. Madeira and Desertas Isles in sight.
This was a great place to spend the night while in Porto Santo! The location was central to destinations, including shops, restaurants and the beach. The apartment was bright, clean, well appointed and comfortable. The host went out of his way to help with recommendations, and was very accessible. Definitely recommend!
It is not just a sunny apartment, good for our family of four, very close to the beach. It is also a very important care from the host, we got every help we needed, that was really important for our first visit to Porto Santo. Thank you Roberto ! Whenever we are again at Porto Santo, we will try to stay at your apartment!
Restaurants have free pickup so you don't have to be downtown. If you plan in advance you can rent a bike or e-bike and have it delivered to the hotel. You can also drop it off at the hotel. Breakfast is good. The salad bar buffet is a good value. The full buffet is good too, but you have to like what they are offering.
Perfect location, 2min off the town center. The house itself has everything you need, including an outdoor lounge/bbq area, and a table which is perfect for your meals.
Checking in and out was easy, and would definitely stay there again and for longer.
The biggest supermarket of the island is also right next door.
Location is a bit far from the main town, but I see that as an advantage - very quiet, beach is uncrowded, peaceful experience, kayaking or hiking trails on that side of the island are very close.
The home itself has everything needed for a longer stay, also nicely decorated with paintings and ship models.
Already know quite well Porto Santo and I can say the location is just perfect. 5-10min walk from city center and 1-2min walk from the beach (just on the other side of the road)
Its a small but cosy place and ideal for some days at this lovely island.
Spacious, modern and clean apartment close to the Village centre and with a stunning view over the beach of Porto Santo. Beach itself is within 5 minutes walk. Apartment has all the necessary amenities. And friendly and really helpful owner Carlos.
Great place for our family vacation (6 persons, 8 days). Everything nice and clean, good communication. Porto Santo in February is calm place for relaxing holiday and this a very good place to choose for a family up to 8 persons. Highly recommend!
Breakfast was decent, very basic, rolls, bread, cereal, meat & cheese, no eggs, pancakes, or waffles. Location on the other hand was amazing with excellent, friendly staff. The hotel was also spotless, very clean; you could eat off the floors!
Comfortable stylish place, kitchen and bathroom a bit basic but could stay for weeks. Great to have kitchen because restaurants and bars on Porto Santo are not very good and quite expensive. Close to beach with nice patio to relax on.
It was a perfect stay at this place in peaceful Porto Santo island - spacious, clean, with calm and friendly atmosphere and very nice other guests, great for a real vacation. For sure I recommend it and would love to come back!
if you are in Porto Santo is certainly a place to be. You have a directly access to the wonderful 9km beach 🏝️, inside the hotel you can feel like in the big Caribbean hotels. Staff is super kind and professional.
Staff was very helpful and kind. The hotel is close to the beach, 2m walk which was great.
The pools were good and we could use also the restaurants and pools from the other Pestana hotel which is co-located.
very nice hotel in center location of Porto santo , short walking distance to beach , supermarket etc.
Rooms are really clean and the staff is extremely kind and helpful, really good breakfast options
The hotel was great. The room and bathroom were very spacious. The Internet was quick. The place is great as well for remote working as for relax. The beach is just opposite the hotel.
