Villa Galega
History finds a new rhythm.
Restored in 2022, Villa Galega preserves the character of a Portuguese home from 1919 in central Santa Cruz. Stone, wooden floors and thoughtful interiors create an intimate atmosphere just a short walk from the beach.
A home to feel at home in.
Six charming rooms on the first floor and beneath the roof, plus a three-bedroom home on the ground floor. Welcoming shared spaces and a team speaking Portuguese, English and French make each stay easy and personal.
Swim. Unwind. Savour.
Enjoy a seasonal, heated outdoor saltwater plunge pool, a sunny terrace and peaceful outdoor seating. The Villa offers free WiFi, a fully equipped shared kitchen and a television lounge. Non-smoking rooms have private bathrooms; the Standard Suites include air conditioning and a flat-screen TV. A continental breakfast with juice, cheese and fruit is included with suite stays.
Every detail tells a story.
Each room is decorated differently. Wood, natural textures and colours inspired by the Portuguese coast accompany restful moments without losing the home’s identity.
