Cleanliness
6.8
Multiple comments point to inadequate cleaning and aging, dirty furniture, damp/broken bathrooms and inconsistent housekeeping; clear negative sentiment on cleanliness.
Service
9.7
Staff repeatedly praised as very friendly, professional and helpful (reception, director handling refunds, attentive personnel); service is a strong positive across reviews.
Location
8.8
Mixed feedback: attractive sea views and a private-feel beach in some rooms, but several guests mention being far from town, limited taxis and misleading photos regarding beachfront proximity.
Room Quality
7
Frequent reports of maintenance problems (broken patio doors, leaky bathrooms, malfunctioning TV, mattresses to replace) and some worn furniture—room quality viewed as below expectations by many.
Amenities
8.4
Pool, parking, security and extras like massage service are appreciated; some issues noted (cold pool, some loungers damaged) but overall amenities are a positive.
Value for Money
8.2
Several guests note breakfast included and acceptable pricing, though maintenance and cleanliness issues reduce perceived value for some visitors.
Food and Beverage
8.9
Breakfast is often described as good and plentiful, though somewhat repetitive/limited in variety; generally positive F&B remarks centered on breakfast.
Overall Experience
9.4
Overall mixed but leaning positive due to excellent staff, pleasant views and peaceful setting for many guests; however cleanliness and maintenance problems led some to be disappointed.

Dentro dos requisitos
Pros:

Jente boa

Cons:

Facilitar no comprimento de horários talvez porque poucos devem acordar cedo, mas nada de mais e resolvido com um diálogo respeitador e acessível!

O preço da estadia é muito alto para o serviço que prestam.
Pros:

Apenas do funcionários e da vista.

Cons:

A internet é muito fraca, não dá para comunicações ou usa o PC para trabalho. A televisão não funcionava, tinha solicitado para verem a mesma pois tinha crianças e não resolveram nada. Naquele local não passam táxis por ser muito fora de mão e sempre que pedia para me chamarem um táxi o preço que me era aplicado era diferente do que deveria ser.

Excepcional
Pros:

El hotel era excepcional, el desayuno era el más grande y variado que probamos en Cabo verde, había de todo. El Hotel estaba al pie del mar y el propio hotel tenía acceso a un trozo de la playa privado con amacas y sombrillas, junto con la pisicina, no se podía pedir más. La habitación era muy grande y estaba equipada con todo lo necesario, además el mismo complejo del hotel contaba con un supermercado. El personal del hotel muy atento y amable.

Lo único malo es que no estuviese en Mindelo y tuviésemos que coger taxi constantemente, pero los encargados te llamaban a un taxi sin problema y solamente costaba unos 2-3 euros. Además había actividades donde te recogían en el mismo hotel sin tener que ir a Mindelo.

Pros:

A disponibilidade e simpatia dos funcionários. O Sr. Manuel e a Cíntia sempre prontos a ajudar. Foram uma excelente ajuda.

Cons:

Foi-nos atribuído um quarto com o chuveiro danificado (já era do conhecimento do hotel). Não tivemos televisão em toda a estadia por avaria.

Zona calma , staff bastante simpático e atencioso . Piscina boa , praia em frente e apenas areia e não tem acesso à prai
Pros:

Zona bastante calma , os funcionários do estabelecimento bastante atenciosos e prestáveis.
Localizado perto do aeroporto.

Cons:

As fotos aqui no booking são um pouco enganadoras em relação a praia , parece que tem acesso a uma praia mas é apenas areia com umas espreguiçadeiras.
