Excellent stay in Sao Filipe. Every single hotel staff were incredible, friendly and welcoming. Great location, only a 5/10 minute walk into town and hotel pool and dining area was lovely and relaxing. Thank you for the amazing hospitality. Big thank you to Gilson and Ailton! Would definitely recommend and will be coming back again.

Pool needs better maintenance. Filters not working properly so pool foggy. Bathroom in desperate need of updates. Beds hard and super uncomfortable. Staff is excellent. Very helpful and friendly. Room cleaned well daily. Excellent views of the ocean and the Island of Brava. Sunsets are amazing. Potential to be an excellent hotel with some maintenance and upgrades.

A Hotel we really can recommended

You have here the feeling to be really welcome. The furniture is comfortable, people are friendly and helpful particular at the reception. The speak a good English. The pool has a nice and a good size so you can also swim. The room is also comfortable and has a nice balcony. You see a lot of flower when your are looking at the pool. Breakfast was okay, there was only a small buffet because at our stay the Hotel had not many guest. It was all positive, nothing negative.

Wundervolle Lage mit Blick auf Meer und Brava vom Balkon und Pool. Idyllisches ruhiges Gelände mit kleiner Bar, Restaurant die einen immer versorgen (was man aufgrund des limitierten Angebots auf der Insel gut gebrauchen kann). Einfache Zimmer. Sehr freundliches Personal, Frühstück ist guter Cabo Verde-Durchschnitt. Absolute Empfehlung bei Aufenthalt auf Fogo - der schönsten Insel auf unserem Cabo Verde-Aufenthalt.

Faszinierende Aussicht auf Brava, ruhige Lage!

Gutes Hotel, Männerpersonal am FrontDesk nicht freundlich, Wahnsinns Ausblick nach Brava, Frühstück ok, toller Pool, insgesamt das beste Hotel in São Felipe. Leider kein Restaurant Abends, Klimaanlage extrem laut, leider kein Fan auf dem Zimmer, Trotzdem empfehlenswert, da unfassbar toller Blick auf die Insel Brava!!!

Nettes Hotel mit sichtbarem Sanierungsbedarf!

Wir hatten dieses Hotel bereits im Jahr 2010 einmal gebucht. Seither dürfte jedoch nichts oder nur wenig saniert bzw. erneuert worden sein. Und das sieht man auch. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Entspannung pur

Die Dame an der Rezeption war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Von dem Balkon des Zimmers hatte man einen herrlichen Blick auf die Insel Brava. In den Zimmern sind kleinere Renovationsarbeiten notwendig. Frühstück war gut und reichhaltig.

Godt nok

Hotellet er bra nok, men litt slitt i kantene. Få ansatte, som alle turnerer resepsjon, frokostrom, bar og restaurant. Resepsjonen kan fikse guide og bil, men ta en tur i sentrum og du vil få flere tilbud. Ikke vær redd for å takke nei til dårlig engelsk. Hotellet ligger litt i utkanten, men det er ikke langt å gå, maks 10 min.
