Top Santa Cruz Hotel Reviews

Pestana Trópico

Pestana Trópico

10/10 Excellent
"We had to return to this wonderful hotel for its 5-star tranquility. A home from home, smiling and approachable staff, and an environment you can truly relax in. The manager Ana was a delight to talk with, and it shows the culture of the place. I’m sure other hotels in Cidade Praia are good, but this place is special. Low-key luxury."
