The best things about Santa Maria were the friendly local...
The best things about Santa Maria were the friendly local and the beautiful in crowded beaches. The only things that weren’t great was the 2 hours it took to get through passport control at the airport and that not everything in our hotel was working properly

Very nice town, beautiful, clean.
Very nice town, beautiful, clean. A lot of restaurants and nice bars. Go to restaurants that´s not on the mainstreet and you will find the best food and the best prices, for exampla "Camara Camara", they had the best tuna and other fish. Bom Petisck is good. Bar restaurante Bia has very good grilled meat, great red wine and very nice service. Buddy bar has nice drinks and so do Brazil that's right down on the beach. Visit the town/village Palmeira, it's adorable and go to Salinas, the salt lakes. It's very easy to find taxi.MalinSweden - 8.0Scored 8.0

The Antigo apts are located in a little oasis of beautifully landscaped gardens beside the beach, in my opinion the very best part of Santa Maria. There is a covered market to where fruit and veg can be bought. We only used the cafe attached to the apts & Sal Beach Bar, where food was good. There are more several bars with music but I can't comment as we didn't use them. Not much else in Santa Maria - Sal Island isn't very affluentRICHARDUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0
What we liked: We loved the weather and sandy beaches.
What we liked: We loved the weather and sandy beaches. It was hot however with the constant breeze it was just right. The hotel is located literally at the beach which is a really good thing. Marley Bar at the resort is a must visit to chill, drink and eat. Taxis from the resorts to Santa Maria are about 6 euros and my suggestion is to stick with the one and the same taxi driver as we did with our many trips to Santa Maria. Taxi drivers all operate on whatsapp and if you got the ride you liked then stick with it. It pays off when you're go shopping for fish as the driver will walk with you and you won't be "constantly bothered with buying some souvenirs" from other locals. If you're one to get to see the Sal Island go and choose GUS travel. They're very knowledgeable and nothing is a bother when they show you the island. On the less good side: Food in the hotel was hit and miss and in our view the locals should focus on what Cape Verde has best to offer which is fish, fish and fish and ditch the European food. Luckily we did not go all inclusive so we have many more options. Mosquitoes are really annoying and nothing repels them, so take a mosquitoes net with you If are in Santa Maria 1st time, do not get overwhelmed by all the locals trying to sell you something, after all they make a living from selling things to tourists. And lastly travel insurance is a must. The healthcare is accessible for all but hospital miss even basic stuff. If you require special medicines if you get sick, best is if you could take them with you, otherwise you might need to cut short you holiday and get the travel insurance to get you back home early.

The beaches are beautiful but it's impossible to walk the...
The beaches are beautiful but it's impossible to walk the streets without being literally harrassed by owners of shops trying to sell you something. I understand that they're trying to make a living, but insisting that you "just" take a look at their shop, trying to call you back to their shop, literally shouting to you at the streets to "stop" and to "wait" is just unacceptable. While I was walking on the streest, I didn't spend a single minute without being approached and harrassed by someone. They say "Cabo Verde, No Stress" but they pressure and attack you in such a form that you end up not buying anything, even if your intention was to buy something in the beginning. I'm from Turkey where we have a similar "seller approaching you" culture, and I've been to Morocco and Tunisia as well where similar stuff happens, but this was just too much for me. From what I understand, these are generally foreigners who come to Sal to sell stuff, the pure locals of this place are much frendlier and calmer in general. If it weren't for this people, I'd like to have stayed more, or I'd probably even return someday, but just because of this behavoir I'll never return to Santa María. If you want a calmer (and much more beautiful) place, just go Tarrafal on Santiago island.SSelim SumanTurkey - 6.0Scored 6.0
Too much touristed. Too dry.
Too much touristed. Too dry. Visit some of the other islands of Capo Verde. It's easy to take a flight to an other place and have a nice holiday. It's much more green at Sao Vicente and Sao Antao.

- From $102.81 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very GoodRated very good· 557 reviewsA great hotel. The rooms were clean and bright. The bed was very comfortable. USB plus made it easy to charge everything. The breakfast and dinners were delicious and a reasonable price to add onto your stay. Staff was really helpful for addressing any issues in a timely fashion and helping to set up activities. They also gave great recommendations for food and things to do. The hotel is walking distance to the beach. Our room overlooked a lot, not nice in itself, but the benefit was we had an unobstructed view of the sunsets!
SharonUnited States of America - From $69.17 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 100 reviewsGreat space with lots of fresh air. Overall a great experience. Interacting with Loredana and Filomena made it that much more better. The apartment is a nice walk from the center of town, and the area has a lot of character. I recommend staying at Santa Maria Flats if you are looking for a friendly and affordable place to call home while visiting Sal! Also, Filomena, the apartment manager, really is great. She was kind of enough to give me an impromptu tour of the area when we happened to leave the building at the same time.
LionelUnited States of America - 9.1Scored 9.1WonderfulRated wonderful· 55 reviewsThe resort is very clean — I’ve never seen such attention to cleanliness at any resort. The food options were quite good — even for a veggie. There were plenty of daybeds and loungers available so I never had to get up early to claim one. The beach and water are beautiful and the perfect place to have a drink watching the sunset. It was also a nice bonus to have free laundry facilities available on site. The location was good as it’s an easy walk into Santa Maria on the sidewalk along the beach.
RachelCanada - From $50.36 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 77 reviewsLocated in a quiet area, few steps from a very nice beach and also scooter and car rentals, and within 10mns from center which was great Bed is comfortable and we slept very well, there were sometimes some dogs outside but this is the case in almost all santa maria and it wasn't frequent and didn't disturb us much (despite being light sleepers) Dima was responsive and provided all necessary for our stay + also local tips Very good price value overall
AnasFrance - From $128.88 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 326 reviewsBoutique hotel, reasonably priced, locally run, on edge of Santa Maria but easy walk to town centre. Close to beach. Quiet and relaxed. Food in the evening excellent. Warm and friendly staff, very helpful. Room was large, simply furnished with local touches, very comfortable. Clean and pleasant. Pool never too busy. Overall, as a couple without children, so much nicer than being in a huge anonymous resort that sends profits overseas!AlexandraUnited Kingdom
- 8.7Scored 8.7ExcellentRated excellent· 528 reviewsI have been coming to this hotel for many years, great hotel with charm, with some great staff that have been there for years. Ideal for couples situated right on the main beach. If you are looking for a boozy holiday with lots of amenities for children such as a kids club and slides there are other hotels on the Island. But this is a great place to stay centrally located right on the beach in Santa Maria.

The hotel is in a good street. 3 minutes walk to the main street in Santa Maria, 3 minutes walk to the closest beach were among others people do kite surfing, wind surfing and normal surfing.
