Localização e quarto limpo relação bom de qualidade e preço.
Pros:

A localização e proximidade do centro. A vista do quarto sensacional e quarto limpo com ar condicionado.

Cons:

O pequeno almoço demorou muito tempo (éramos a única mesa para ser atendidos) e ainda veio pedidos errados…

Teleurstellend.
Pros:

Behalve de manager waren de medewerker lief en zorgzaam.

Cons:

Momenteel wordt er gebouwd naast dit hotel waardoor ik veel last heb ervaren. Geluidsoverlast, veel zand op het balkon en op de tafels bij het zwembad. Ik werd ook aan het lijntje gehouden. Ik wilde een grote kamer met een sea view. Op het laatste moment kon dat niet. Ik moest kiezen tussen een familie kamer met uitzicht op een bouwput of een 2 persoonskamer met z’n 3tjes. Ik koos dat laatste en ik moest hiervoor hetzelfde bedrag betalen als voor de familie kamer die 2x zo groot is. Daarbij zie je 2 zwembaden op de foto. Maar nergens staat dat de grootste zwembad een privé zwembad is.

Pros:

La colazione a buffet bella varia, la vista del porto dalla camera, la gentilezza dello staff.

Cons:

Dovreste mettere una indicazione sulla via perché Google Maps fa fermare giusto dietro l'angolo e l'insegna non si vede!

Modern, recht gute Lage —> prima Preis leistungsverhältnis
Pros:

FAMILIENZIMMER HABEN KEINE AUSSICHT MEHR!!! Wir haben freundlich gefragt, ob wir statt dessen zwei separate Zimmer haben dürfen, mit Blick auf das Meer. Das freundliche Personal an der Rezeption und vom Hotelmanagement hat das ermöglicht - herzlichen Dank!

Im Keller gibt es sogar einen kleinen Fitnessraum.
Und es gibt noch einen großen Pool.

Cons:

Der Pool auf der Dachterrasse ist leider nur für Gäste des Penthouse zugänglich - das sollte in den Beschreibungen auf booking besser herausgestellt werden.

Aktuell (august 2026) wird ein neues Hotel direkt daneben gebaut. Das verbaut leider total die Sicht für die Familienzimmer —> man sollte darauf achten, separate Doppelzimmer mit Blick nach vorn zu buchen

Modern, gute Lage, Preis-Leistung ist klasse!
Pros:

FAMILIENZIMMER HABEN NIE EINE AUSSICHT! Es wurde ein neues Hotel neben dem Blue Marlin gebaut. Darum haben die Familienzimmer (zwei Zimmer mit Verbindungstür) KEINE Aussicht mehr! In Booking ist dieses noch fehlerhaft.
Die Manager ind Rezeptionistin haben uns zur großen Überraschung die große Penthouse Suite als Upgrade gegeben! —> sowie ist das Penthouse für 6 Personen geeignet und bietet einen Wahnsinns Blick über die Stadt inklusive des spektakulären privaten Pools auf der dachterrasse

Das Hotel ist in einer akzeptablen Lage ca 10 Minuten zu Fuß zum Zentrum. Prima Klimaanlage, moderne Ausstattung, sehr gute Betten und sogar elektrische Rollladen, damit es morgens im Zimmer immer noch dunkel ist.

Cons:

Das Frühstück könnte etwas mehr Gemüse oder „gesünderes“ Essen brauchen, aber es ist schon ok. Das Personal im Restaurant wirkt manchmal etwas träge.

Agradável, confortável e Leve !
Pros:

⭐ Uma excelente experiência no Blue Marlin Hotel, em São Vicente!

Desde a chegada, fomos recebidos com um atendimento de excelência: profissional, rápido, simpático e, acima de tudo, focado na solução. Destaco também a transparência e o profissionalismo, com toda a documentação disponibilizada, incluindo a fatura sem necessidade de a solicitar, bem como informação completa sobre o hotel e os serviços disponíveis.

O quarto estava muito limpo e arrumado, equipado com todas as comodidades necessárias para uma estadia confortável, incluindo água fresca de cortesia.

O restaurante do hotel merece igualmente uma referência especial. Uma cozinha de nível superior, com um menu variado e de grande qualidade, onde o chef prepara os pratos no momento, proporcionando uma experiência gastronómica muito agradável.

Recomendo vivamente o Blue Marlin Hotel para quem visitar São Vicente e ficar em Mindelo. Uma estadia marcada pelo profissionalismo, conforto e qualidade. 🇨🇻🌴

Top !
Pros:

Super séjour ! ✨ L’appartement est vraiment très agréable, avec une magnifique vue sur l’extérieur, les bateaux et l’eau. L’emplacement est idéal, juste à côté du port, très pratique si vous souhaitez prendre le ferry pour découvrir les autres îles.

Le petit-déjeuner est copieux et très bon, et le personnel est adorable, attentionné et toujours aux petits soins. Tout était nickel !

Je recommande sans hésiter et je reviendrai avec plaisir. 🤍

Estadia Excepcional!!
Pros:

Nossa experiência foi simplesmente maravilhosa! Desde a chegada, tudo contribuiu para tornar a estadia muito especial. O quarto era excelente, muito confortável, impecavelmente limpo e com uma vista incrível do Cais Novo.
Gostaria de fazer um agradecimento especial à Vitória, da recepção. Ela foi excepcional! Sempre muito simpática, atenciosa, acolhedora e disposta a ajudar. Mais do que um ótimo atendimento, a Vitória conseguiu fazer com que nos sentíssemos verdadeiramente bem-vindos e completou o ambiente acolhedor. Ela tornou a estadia ainda mais especial.
É aquele tipo de atendimento que faz toda a diferença e que levamos como uma boa lembrança da viagem.
Saímos extremamente satisfeitos e com vontade de voltar. Quarto maravilhoso, vista linda, limpeza impecável e um atendimento que merece todos os elogios.
Muito obrigado a toda a equipe e, especialmente, à Vitória! ❤️🇨🇻

Cons:

Não teve nada.
