Location close to Tarrafal beach.
Breakfast was very good. Mini fridge refilled every day for no extra cost was so so thoughtful, plus the bottle of wine to welcome us. The bathroom had shower gels, perfumes, shampoo, cotton buds, hair dryer, body lotion... it was all about great extras at this B&B. The place is also quiet and very relaxing.
Irène is such a nice person, she organized a fishing trip for us. She was always offering great advice about literally anything 😄 and we can confirm her advice were worth it.
Thanks again Irene and stay the same!

Very cosy little town with nice beach and friendly local people. You can eat very affordable in local bars/restaurants or choose European food in couple of restaurants. The center is quite small, so you walk around easy. Beach is nice and not too much people.

Amazing beach, friendly people, very nice "city" to walk around. Not much to do there so a couple of days are enough to get to know the place, but can't hurt to stay longer and just relax at the beach that is AMAZING!
You can eat at Cegonha, Buzios or at the Vista Mar hotel restaurant next to the beach!
Seafood and fish is really fresh.

IF you are stuck in Praia, do like the locals and go to Tarrafal for the weekend. Its beach beats anything you find in Praia. If you are a diver and conditions are too poor in the south, look for Santiago diving and have a great dive.
Even the trip there is amazing with impressive mountains. Take a taxi for 60 Euro's or a bus for 5 euro per person, departing from the Sucopira Market.
For the rest, its just a cute little town.
The location is breathtaking and perfect for hikers who want to stay at the heart of the mountain. The view from the rooms and general areas are to die for, just like in the pictures. Overall the hotel fits quite faithfully to what is represented in the add and on the pictures, and turned out to be our favourite stay in Cabo Verde
Staff is quite friendly and willing to help.
Since it is quite isolated you will most likely have to depend on food from the hotel for meals, which is fine because they are very well prepared and varied.
THE place to be in Tarrafal! Where you meet fellow travelers! Central location, close to everything: beach, shops, restaurants, shared taxi station, markets...etc. Staff is extremely helpful, constantly cleaning, fixing, socializing and making sure we have everything we need. Delicious and nutritious breakfast, you get to order how you want your eggs cooked. Spacious, clean, sunny room with a large balcony. Comfortable couches in the common areas. Really enjoyed my stay there!
The breakfast buffet was a highlight. Delicious and plentiful, with wonderfully friendly service! The front desk staff was available all day and until midnight to address any questions or concerns we had. They were flexible about extending our stay when we wanted to stay longer in charming Tarrafal, and even helped us move our personal items between rooms. And they helped us book a taxi for the return to Praia Airport! If I return to Tarrafal, I wouldn't stay anywhere else!
Great place for a weekend in Tarrafal:
- perfect location, only a few min walk to the beaches and the beautiful promenade by the sea
- amazing host - Alcino was so helpful, proactive, always in touch
- comfortable bed, big shower
- great view from the terrace - on mountains ( at night you also can hear the ocean )
- strong and stable wi-fi connection
- big shared kitchen and living room
we enjoyed every moment here!
A very cosy place for stay in Tarrafal, short walking distance to the beach and the surfing area. Super friendly staff, chilled and always helpful. Easy-going, surf-like atmosphere makes it a place to rest and recharge batteries. Shared bathroom and toilet, well equipped kitchen and spacious terrace with ocean view (and when the weather allows, the view on another island). Super clean. Thank you for unforgettable time!
Antonio has been a wonderful host! Throughout our stay and in the days leading up to the trip, Antonio was always on call to answer our questions and to make sure our stay was going well. The house is really nice, perfectly clean, well organised and equipped with a small inner courtyard where you can have breakfast, eat, rest in your hammock.
Super recommended for people travelling and staying in Tarrafal!
The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. They offered a great variety of activities to choose from, making it easy to plan our days. The on-site restaurant was truly excellent.

The hotel has an amazing location by the coast - you can even hear the waves as you sleep from the seaside rooms. The staff was very friendly, and the hotel restaurant has the best food in Tarrafal. Wi-Fi worked well

The loveliest thing about my room was the private balcony with a hammock.
