House in Santa Cruz Beach

We are located in Santa Cruz beach, the beach is across the street, and there are supermarkets and restaurants nearby. It is a very ventilated house with great natural lighting. It is on the edge of the street so you should take into account that there will be some noise during the day, but it is quieter at night. In the morning you may hear a little noise from the buses passing, but our biggest advantage is the beach, the best on the island, and the proximity to other tourist sites. We also rent scooters
