Charming property, accurately described. Excellent & friendly owner support
Great views of sea and mountains. Balcony on three sides & not close to other properties allowed one to sit in or out of the Sun and if windy to avoid that side.
Clean, nice fittings & bathroom, WiFi too - ideal for a couple.
Self catering was great as we could eat when it suited us and could choose what we saw looked fresh & interesting in the local markets & shops.
Walking into the town centre isn't really far but very steep and down hundreds of steps along a paved/stepped path. As I'm 79 and my wife 76 we did it once 'for fun' but cheap taxis at Eu 4 were the mode thereafter.
Only a five minute taxi run into the centre of Santa Cruz and plenty of taxis on call whose drivers knew exactly where this accommodation was located.
Being near to the airport meant an inexpensive and short taxi ride to the flat, saved hiring a car and queuing with everyone at the airport desk as we walked straight out to the taxis and were whisked within minutes to the property.
Santa Cruz has plenty of cafe/restaurants, but also a friendly supermarket and a fresh veg/fruit/wine/fish market on the shore line. A local speciality we found was bread made with a proportion of what we were told was sweet potato flour - absolutely delicious.
The accommodation owners welcomed us in person, both speak English fluently and ensured everything was taken care of as well as kindly running us back to the airport on the last day.
[Actually Fatima went far beyond that. Due to windy weather conditions the plane was cancelled and we needed to find a hotel at short notice - like many others stuck too & the airport staff were overwhelmed. Fatima was telephoned, drove out to collect us and baggage and drove into town to find us something & worked her magic on the owners of the nice new hotel bom Jesus to find us a room.
I can recommend this 'The House of the Gazebo' for all the above reasons.
