The spacious clean room, comfy sofa, well-equipped kitchen with a fridge, and the big fans made it very comfortable. The location is about 30 min walk from Plateau (the center area) but there’s also a public bus (line 6) that you can take from a park 1 min walk from the house at 43 CVE. Taxi to Plateau was around 200 CVE. Also, the owner is very kind and helpful.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience during my stay in Cape Verde. The host was incredibly helpful, attentive, and highly professional, making me feel welcome from the very first moment. The apart-hotel was spotless and well-maintained, equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
One of the highlights was their convenient car rental service, which made exploring Santiago Island so much easier and more enjoyable. From the beautiful landscapes to the vibrant local culture, everything was within reach.
I also recommend this place to other visitors, especially as it’s located very close to Praia Airport — making arrivals and departures quick and stress-free.
I truly recommend this place for anyone visiting Cape Verde — it’s the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and excellent hospitality.

* Nice and friendly people, family home feels warm. Nice welcoming.
* I contacted them in advance ; friendly and helpful communication.
* They can arrange taxi from / to airport ( But be aware that, at night, it may cost around 18 EUR / 1800 , CVE. ( April 2025) . However, this would be perhaps cheaper than catching one the airport . I cant remember how much it was on the day time but maybe around 12ish. *important* Payment is nothing to do with Mendes Family! directly with the taxi driver)
10-15 mins ride.
* Basic breakfast is included yet fills enough at morning. > Sweet yellow thing , I think it was made by sugarcane ? was nice <
* Lovely cat; Doesn't bother people ( Just be aware if you have a allergy or scared of ) its friendly.
* (since its a family house, only cash can be accepted since its not a hotel.)
* Thanks a lot for that they kindly waited for my late arrival due to the long delay with my flight.
<3 I would stay again if I pass by Praia

It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman.
It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman. Do NOT go out alone or at night. My housemate and I went to a beach that was 6-7 walking minutes away. It was absolutely lovely. We went at 6pm and left at 8pm. It was dark. Unfortunately 2 masked children (of about 12) tried to "jump" us with knives. I've been traveling for 30 years and robbed 7 times before (including this; that averages out to 1/4 years and I AM VERY WHITE, with blue eyes, blond hair and stand out in certain places, so I may be an "easy target". Still, I've never had knives drawn on me. So PLEASE be careful, especially if you are women. BE SMART. I wasn't. Thankfully all I walked away with was some PTSD and bad memories, but they had masks & REAL KNIVES and it could have been VERY BAD.

Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere...
Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere found on the other Cape Verde islands. The local population generally doesn’t speak English and often seems offended if you don’t speak to them in Portuguese. Tourists are frequently stared at, which can make you feel a bit out of place, and the overall impression is that visitors aren’t always welcome. We had a bad experience in Praínha, where persistent children came up asking for money, while older men seemed to be eyeing our bags left on the towels. We ended up having to leave immediately by taxi. Outside of the Plateau—the only area recommended for tourists and heavily patrolled by military and police—you don’t really feel safe.

Actually I’m a Nigerian. When I traveled there I found it difficult to communicate in Cape Verde due to I can’t speak Portuguese. But there are another islands that they do speak English there. in this country 99% people speaks Portuguese. So that’s just my experience. But the was nice and peaceful
