The hotel is new and clean. Maria Júlia herself is always around. She bakes fresh buns in the morning and prepares whatever you ask her to. The staff are sweet and helpful. The location is great! And the bar at the terrace is very pleasant.

I would have spent 3 days there maximum and spent the other 4 days in Tarrafal, instead.
In general I enjoyed my stay there, but Tarrafal it’s a different world, where you can actually feel the culture and be surrounded with beauty. Cidade abelha is also a must and it’s absolutely beautiful.
I would have loved to manage to see the typical ceramics, but people don’t talk much and don’t value much (unfortunately). I actually went to Sai Domingos on purpose to see it, but the locals said it was closed.

I loved the sun, the water, the history of the people, the moutains and the rest of the land, the beaches, Tarrafel and the kindness of the people. Its a great place for a vacation if you just want sun and the easy life on the beach or climbing mountain trails if you like. I will return!!

Praia is the capital of Cape Verde.
Praia is the capital of Cape Verde. The Santiago island is not the best if you are looking for a great beach experience. There are other islands with easy access that have superb beaches. We did a tour around the island which was interesting visiting Cidade Velha and Tarrafal as well as Sao Vicente. Tarrafal was a nice beach. The two main markets in Praia are a must see, also where you can buy some mementos.

Praia is a small "African" town, where you stroll around and enjoy the moment. There is actually nothing spectacular to see, but as a whole it is quite enjoyable. We walked thru Plato and along the beaches (Quebra Canela and Prainha). The restaurants there are really great: good food and nice view! But prices are higher than one would expect, more European.
The room was clean, bright and beautiful, the balcony and view were spectacular. The salt water pool was large, clean and warm. The night front desk officers Luis and Mario were excellent and very helpful. The breakfast was very good, as was the breakfast staff.
I also liked that the hotel pictures on the site are accurate - it is surrounded by a very rocky beach and doesn't present itself as beach hotel with an accessible sandy beach. There is a little sandy beach cove next to the hotel where people can swim.
It was beautifulll stay right in the city center that exceeded all of my expectations. A great vibe and very modern. The appartments are very clean and have all the luxury you want, but what really was amazing was the staff in the hotel. Nowhere in Cabo verde have I been treated so well as here in the hotel. I wont forget their sweet smiles very quickly.
the communication with everyone at the hotel food was excellent they went above and beyond to get what i wanted its my 3 rd time staying there i asked for a taxi driver that spoke english to help me with transactions it made my needs met without all the effort without me to stress about it.
It's a decent tourist-class hotel, just off of the plateau. The facilities are nice and the rooftop restaurant is pleasant. The staff is helpful, if somewhat inexperienced, but make up for it with enthusiasm. This isn't glamour but it's clean and affordable if you have a few days in Praia.
The room was very spacious and very clean. The bed was really comfortable. We liked so much that we stayed here every time we had to be in Praia. The driver is very friendly and picked us up from the port and took us to the airport very early in the morning which was very kind of him.
These are really nice apartments (it's bigger and nicer than our own in the Netherlands). The host is super helpful and we were able to store some stuff whilst visiting some of the other Islands. The WiFi is also really fast (30MB down, 14MB up).
The hotel is new and clean. Maria Júlia herself is always around. She bakes fresh buns in the morning and prepares whatever you ask her to. The staff are sweet and helpful. The location is great! And the bar at the terrace is very pleasant.
The apartment was fully air conditioned. it comes with a kitchen with facilities. There is a safe in the room to keep your valuable belongings. Very helpful staff. You can rent a scooter to travel around the town at the hotel.
As close to a custom boutique hotel as we felt in attention, care, and kindness - from management to staff -; priced competitively. Breakfast is special, outside esplanade cool too. Location perfect to move or stay.
Warm welcome from the proprietors, the studio was very clean, fresh towels, air con, and really nice room. I think one of the best in Santiago island - if not the best for cleanliness, comfort and facilities.
Great little guesthouse in Praia´s Plateau. Very clean and with super helpful staff. We arranged an airport pickup through the host, as well as got a car rented for the duration of our stay. Great location.
Very accommodating. We asked for a driver to pick us up last minute at 1am at the airport and they delivered. Centrally located. Very friendly staff as well
Would recommend overall.
The apartment itself is designed and decorated beautifully. The location of the hotel is far out the city and a bit hidden but for me that it exactly what I was looking for.
The host was nice! The hotel was very calm during our stay. We had a breakfast twice , and it was very good food. Typical breakfast from Cape Verde!
Overal good stay!
