Featuring inner courtyard views, Nifa House offers accommodation with patio, around 7.1 km from Pedra Lume Salt Crater. The property features quiet street views and is 12 km from Buracona the Blue Eye and 17 km from Viveiro, Botanical Garden & Zoo di Terra. The property offers allergy-free units and is set 2 km from  Monte Curral. For me the location was great: outside of center Espargos means no noises at all, super quiet and relaxing neighbourhood. Minimarket was 5 min walking away, nice and cheap restaurant 3 min. I even walked to the airport which was around 40min. The bus station for the collectivos to Santa Maria (scooter rental) is 20min walking. The room and the house is superclean, modern, and the owner is really friendly, and nearly always available via booking or WhatsApp. He speaks Portugese, Englisch, spanish and french... He has mountain bikes for rent (just 7km to the Salinas), and in the near future also scooter. The room is big with a big bed and a comfy matrace. There is a table and chairs. Also there are enough plugs to charge your stuff. The bathroom looks / is new and has a shower with hot water. The WiFi works great. I loved staying here! Definitely recommend this place!

Offering quiet street views, Branco Suites - Rooms & Holiday Apartments is an accommodation located in Santa Maria, 500 metres from Nazarene Church and 700 metres from Funana Casa da Cultura. The property features city and inner courtyard views, and is 500 metres from Praia de Santa Maria. The accommodation provides free WiFi throughout the property, as well as a terrace and a family-friendly restaurant. Everything was perfect! The apartment was great, in a quiet area and close to the pedestrian street and the beach. The kitchen had everything you needed in case you wanted to cook anything, big balcony, comfortable mattress, clean bathroom. Dali and Zuela are absolutely amazing, they arranged a taxi from us from the airport so everything went smooth. They are always there to help you with whatever you need - be it the accommodation, booking trips for you, or telling you how to find your way around the island. On top of that, when my husband got (slightly) bitten by a dog, Dali went above and beyond to find us a clinic that was open and we are grateful for that! She even helped us with other stuff after we moved to another hotel, which wasn’t her job anymore, but being the nice person that she is, she did that too. Our only regret is that we didn’t spend the whole holiday there!
