Oceanfront beach apartment 4 Porto Antigo 2
Beautifully located apartment. Very clean and cared for. Neat bathroom and kitchen, pleasant bed. Kevin was very correct and accessible in communication. In addition, it is flexible in terms of arrival and departure time. We found Santa-Maria to be far too touristy and massive and would absolutely not return there, but of course that is only a personal preference. The apartment is definitely recommended.

One bedroom Oleandro
Alba helped us at all times and gave us great recommendations, she was a great host. The apartment has everything you need for a short stay. The neighborhood is very quiet and is very close to the beach, restaurants, and areas of interest... Very recommended!!

Villa with seaview
We stayed a week with another couple of friends in this beautiful villa. Beyond the direct access to the beach from the garden, the pool and the facilities of the hotel complex, we could not have hoped for better for our stay in Sal. Highly recommended

Sea View Apartment in the Center
Raphael was a helpful host, responding to enquiries quickly and efficiently. He organised taxi to and from the airport which cost 25 euro each way. The apartment was in a great location, quiet and private, with lovely swimming pool and sea frontage, which you can see from the balcony. It is a short walk from the main pedestrian street in town where a lot of the bars and restaurants are. Also lovely beach both sides of the accommodation. There is good security with guards always on duty. at the entrances. Regarding the apartment itself, it is clean, if slightly dated. It has good, quiet aircon in the main living area and the downstairs bedroom. The mezzanine bedroom has a fan. There is sufficient crockery and cutlery for four people. Perhaps an English request, a toaster would have been good. All in all, we would recommend this airbnb and would stay again.

Santana single bedroom serviced apartment
We had an excellent stay, really attention and responsive host, Katiana was most helpful with taxa from airport, which we really appreciated. Apartment was as described. Easy and sufficient. :)

A6SOL Beautiful and bright apartment by the sea
The apartment is in a nice location near the beach and in the center. What we have not realized is that SAL has become a party island and the music continues until 6 in the morning. If you are deaf or a party animal this is a fantastic location you are not then I would bring earplugs. So absolutely recommended, the apartment has good beds, the bathroom and kitchen are fine and the value for money is good. If you have no trouble with music at night definitely go to this apartment.

Unique Villa on Santa Maria beach
Absolutely fantastic place for holiday, great communication with Susanah Absolutely nothing to complain about

Sea views apartment in front of the best beach
It was a really nice apartment, but for the price it was really good. Lovely central and we were lulled to sleep at night by music from a bar 🥰 Will always book the apartment again if we come to Santa Maria.

Lovely and quiet place to stay. The location was perfect, we did all of our day trips from this place and explored most of the island. Thank you for your hospitality!

Ponta Preta Condo Penthouse
Ideal space for a quiet vacation outside the confusion of the tourist center. Pleasant 15-minute walk to the center along the sea side wall. Quiet and safe.

Leme Bedje beachfront
Loved Marco’s place. Great flat with full kitted out kitchen. Slept really well. Lovely neighbours. Fab coffee/ ice cream shop downstairs, loved sitting there in mornings watching the beach. Always taxis passing to take you to kitebeach which is 5 min drive. Lots of restaurants around and town is 5 mins walk , beach across the road.

Luxe app. in Tortuga Beach
Nice and clean apt. Close to 2 pools. Good resturants close by. We did not have remotecontrol for the aircondition, but this was fixed in a day or two. We would like to come back in the future.

Tropical garden studio with WIFI, pool and beach!
I had a great time in Anna's place. The location is top - right on the beach and in the middle of the town center at the same time. All that you need is nearby - shops, restaurants, vibrant nightlife. And even though it's very cosy and quiet at night. Beautiful swimming pool with an outstanding view of the ocean and a cosy patio surrounded by a green and well kept garden. The place is a bit old and weary, but it is very clean and tidy. The community is well guarded and very safe, and the personnel on sight is extremely friendly and helpful. It's not my first time in Santa Maria, but Anna's apartment is definitely the best place I've stayed so far. And it's the best value for money one can only imagine. I will definitely be back! :)

Residence Amanda with pool
Thanks again to Francisca! His apartment is super well located (outdoor gym room facing the sea, super restaurant l'art café two min walk, a must).

Spacious Studio Porto Antigo 2, Steps to Pool,Wifi
I went to Sal for the first time with my 6 year old daughter. We loved everything. Starting with the property, perfect location on the turquoise sea, pool, restaurants and and and and. The communication with Guido was great, always immediately written back and answered a lot even before we arrived, ☺️ we never feel alone. We'll be back 😍

Villa near Santa Maria, Second row from the beach
We had a lovely time . The villa is in a good location in the resort , near to the beach. Transport into Santa Maria is good - either taxis for €5 or the hotel bus a couple of a day. We choose to eat out sometimes and cook for ourselves as there was a small supermarket 10 mins walk from the resort. Magdalena was responsive to messages and helpful. There were a few things that needed fixing in the villa which Magdalena agreed to fix. The villa is spacious and comfortable. The staff on the resort were friendly and helpful.

Ibiscus Ocean View Appartment
We had a great stay at Sandro's place! The space was clean, stylishly decorated, and exactly as described. Sandro was an attentive and helpful host who gave us valuable tips for the area. The location was ideal – quiet yet close to all the main attractions. We felt completely comfortable and would come back anytime. Thank you for the great hospitality! 😊

Tortuga beach apartment 227 2 bed 2 bathrooms.
Great deal and great location from the beach. Access to restaurants, beach, shows and pools. Wifi from hotel was ok to work remotely for 2 weeks and work with Teams, flat’s wifi wasn’t better. Doors do not close properly within the flat but this is a minor issue. Kitchen well equipped. Overall a great deal!

Adult only beachfront 2 bed flat unlimited wifi
Nice cozy quiet place, walking distance to the center and beaches. We had a good relaxing time.

Trendy apartment with fancy garden & rooftop pool 2

The location it’s just perfect, close to all the restaurants and stores and also close to the beach. We recommend this place
