Beatriz's Little House
Hi! We are Sonia, Élio and our daughter Beatriz. Our goal is to make your holiday unforgettable!! Welcome to our home!! The "Beatriz's little house" is located in Santana, land of typical houses, ex-libris and tourist sign of the island of Madeira. They were houses composed of an attic, where the agricultural products were stored, and the ground floor with the living area. We have rebuilt one of these typical "little houses", dated from 1950, in all the comfort of current times. It has a sea/mountain view.
