"The house has a heated pool, which allowed us to swim and sunbathe! Although the house also has air conditioning, nothing beats lighting the fireplace and spending some time chatting! Excellent architecture and decoration. Perfect location, in the countryside near the wonderful beaches. The hosts were very friendly and dedicated. We will return again and I recommend it to everyone looking for an ideal place to relax!"

Santiago do Cacém

"Beautiful and comfortable home. The listing was a little incomplete so it was unclear exactly what we were getting but pleasantly surprised. One very confusing experience is they never mentioned an actual couple lives on-site and are the hosts. They came by when we got there and were very kind and accommodating. It just would have been helpful to know they would be there. The listing said it was entirely self check-in. "

Top Santa Cruz Hotel Reviews

AP Sines

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was very good.the interior pool would be better if the water was warmer the bed was very comfortable"

SINES SEA VIEW HOTEL

6/10 Okay

"This is a very business oriented hotel in an area it is generally completely under construction. If you just need a place to put your head for the night, the rooms are very clean and the management keeps this hotel and restaurant spotless. But the rooms are so small there’s no room for luggage and I was definitely put off by the fact that there was no coffee in the room. And it would be really nice if they had a pool. But the breakfast was good and the parking lot was wide open and bright. Like I said good for a business function, but not for leisure Travel."

Spatia Comporta

10/10 Excellent

"We found Spatia Comporta extremely peaceful, relaxing, & absolutely beautiful. The young staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was wonderful especially on the weekend. I was debating between 2 hotels, and felt the images of Spatia Comporta did not quite do justice - in capturing the beautifully landscaped tranquil environment, & level of serenity in all the details - this coming from NYC. The main pool area for adults only was so peaceful I didn’t want to leave. The only recommendation we would suggest is in the bedding. We had come from the Intercontinental & was a little surprised about the harder bed & pillows. Regardless, something about the air & being there allowed for solid sleep & I awoke feeling refreshed, albeit a little sore. I did a morning yoga on our private deck & simply sat in the quiet for a few minutes to truly exhale. I loved it & hope to return."

Porto Covo Praia Hotel & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"This is a very comfortable, luxurious, hotel which provides everything you could wish for and does it very well. The room was very light as was the rest of the hotel with clever use of Glass to allow natural light. Food was excellent, service could not be faulted. We will come back."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Santa Cruz?

The best area to stay in Santa Cruz is along the beachfront, particularly near Praia de Santa Cruz and Praia da Física, for direct access to the ocean and a relaxed coastal experience.

For travelers looking to enjoy the ocean, the area directly fronting Praia de Santa Cruz offers easy access to the sand and waves. You'll find a selection of hotels and guesthouses lining the coast, providing straightforward access to the beach. This area is convenient for those who want to spend their days surfing, sunbathing, or enjoying long walks along the shore.

Couples often appreciate the quieter, residential feel of the neighborhoods set back slightly from the main beach, such as those around Praia do Navio.

When is the best time to go to Santa Cruz?

The best time to go to Santa Cruz, Setúbal District, Portugal, is during the shoulder seasons of May-June and September-October, or in the peak summer months of July-August.

For travelers looking for warm weather and a lively beach experience, July and August are ideal. The temperatures are at their highest, superb for enjoying the extensive sandy beaches and swimming in the Atlantic. This is when all the beachside cafes and restaurants are fully operational, offering a complete coastal experience. Families will find this period particularly good, as the ocean is at its warmest for swimming and there are many activities available.

If you prefer pleasant weather with fewer crowds, May, June, September, and October offer a more relaxed visit. The temperatures are still very comfortable for spending time outdoors, with plenty of sunshine.
