The best available Specialty lodgings to stay near Ilha do Sal

May 15, 2023 Kandra Bartel

The Cape Verdean island of Sal is all about the beach, baby. White sand stretches along glassy turquoise waters—perfect for a lazy day of sunning or some heart-pumping watersports. Snorkelers and divers will find plenty of tropical fish, turtles, and dolphins to look at. On dry land, kids (and grownups!) will marvel at the Terra Boa mirage, an optical illusion that conjures a peaceful-looking lake in the middle of a large, flat plain.

Tranquil hotel with sufficient facilities

Reviewed By jazzstening

Self catered room was clean and tidy. It did lack in some items such as chopping board, sharp knives and cleaning equipment. Staff were friendly and helpful. Facilities were limited with only one restaurant, supermarket and pool bar. Restaurant had nice food but limited choice and over priced. The supermarket was small and expensive but similar priced to supermarkets in the local town. The pool was beautiful and plenty of sun loungers available as well as by the beach. The beach was a 10 minute walk away but a shuttle bus was provided. Stayed in January and the hotel was mostly empty but it meant it was nice and quiet and we had a lovely stay.

Nice place to stay

Reviewed By Dejan32

Nice, big appartment. It is ok, maybe some little improvements, and it would be perfect - just not forget, this is Africa. It is not 4-5 star hotel. Space is big, kitchen is ok for basic preparation of food, but there are also a couple of restaurants nearby, that are not expensive. You have two bedrooms - the beds are kinda squechy, but ok :) Good wifi, great host. He welcomed us first day, and explained everything. Was also available later for questions. Just have in mind, there is no AC (at least it was not in our appartment). It is not so bad, because it is windy island - we were there in July, and it was ok without AC. Location is nice, just 2 min to the closest beach, and cca 5-10 min walk to the main beach. You have included free breakfast in the restaurant nearby! Recommended.

Good and central

Reviewed By soehail

I have been in Santa Maria as a solo traveller, and wanted to have an central location, that was not in resort so i can enjoy my time the mostly. I like this place, as its like an small little boutique hotel, that is very small and newly refurbished. What i like, is the nice wallpaper, and the incredibly grande bathrooms, and the bed was also very good! The breakfast was an mix of cakes, and some sort of bread, with some jars of Nutella and Jam, that was basic but alright. For 45/Eur/night, i would stay! The only thing that you have to check, is that the city location is quite lively and thus perhaps you need some earplugs (that you have to buy before going to Santa Maria, i havent found them anywhere)

Amazing holiday

Reviewed By AJW6012

WOW... my husband and I have just returned from spending a week at this fabulous hotel. We loved it so much we have booked again for January and March next year. The food, sundowners and entertainment was amazing. Yes it does cater for the German market but it could not have been friendlier. It was very classy, everybody was so polite and absolutely no drunken behaviour. The focus was on sports and fitness with an amazing well being food station. Thank you Peggy and team for a great holiday. Are there any negatives? none that we could think of but we didn't want a commercialised touristy area with lots of sports bars and fast food.
