Amazing staff at reception, pool side and restaurants. All so hardworking and friendly! Very clean and modern rooms! Rooms cleaned daily! Lifeguards on site all day! Private beach part with sun loungers! 10 mins walk into main Santa Maria town from the beach! Wheelchair provided if needed. Only downside lack of entertainment.

Wanted a comfortable clean modern hotel within walking distance of the town and right next to the beach - that’s exactly what we got!
Great location, perfect for those who don’t want one of the all-inclusive hotels and want the buzz of Santa Maria close by - a 15 min stroll along the beach path, no need for a taxi.
Great facilities, great pool, and an ideal spot on the beach. On top of that, one of its greatest assets is the bounty beach bar/restaurant in front on the beach itself.
Room + bathroom was clean, spacious and tidied every day, bed was comfortable and our courtyard facing room was peaceful quiet all night.
Breakfast buffet had great choice. Staff were always friendly and helpful.

Staff were professional and extremely helpful. Both at reception and the restaurants. The cleaners unfortunately spoke Portuguese, so put my requests in at the front desk. Excellent choice at breakfast. Buffet in the evenings also had a great choice. As soon as food ran out, it was quickly replaced, both breakfast and dinner. On 2 occasions, the lifts stopped working, but was quickly fixed. Great location, 3 mins to the beach and 15 mins walk into town. Decaf coffee in rooms, but ask and regular coffee is provided. Lovely hotel, slept very well. Had a really relaxing holiday. Would stay again at the Hilton.

The location for enjoying the beach was perfect! There is a lovely long clean beach with lounge chairs and shade for guests. Nice dining options. We stayed primarily at the resort due to travel timing but the nearby town was cute.

HOTEL IS NOT A TRUE 5 STARS.ROOM OK BUT BELOW EXPECTATIONS.STAFF IS AVERAGELY NOT SO KIND WITH THE GREAT EXCEPTIONS OF KLEBER OF THE RECEPTION THE BARMAN ALADINO AND CARLOS AND MARIA GRAÇA FROM THE HOUSEKEEPER. BREKFAST IS REALLY AVERAGE AND NOT ACCORDINGLY TO A 5 STARS. WE CAN EVEN UNDERSTAND THE INTENTION OF DIFFERENTIATE THE HOTEL FROM OTHER ALL INCLUDED HOTELS IN THE ISLAND BUT THERE IS NOT EVEN DECENT BAR WHERE TO ENJOY A LITTLE. THE ONLY BAR IN THE HOTEL CLOSE AT 22:00. GOOD TO REST BUT...
THE BEST OF THE HOTEL IS THE LOCATION BUT IN OUR OPINION DON'T WORTHY THE MONEY VALUE

Hotel,very clean,great gardens,fabulous large room,comfortable bed,great bathroom, but the air conditioning turns off every time you open (not leave it open)just open the balcony door,so if you sit on balcony when you return to the room area it’s hot!!I understand the air conditioning going off it the door left open for a period of time,but not instantly!
Also we missed dressing gowns and slippers I think for priced we paid they should be included!we realised on last they where available at request,maybe the hotel should offer ?maybe a note in the room?
Also balcony was very small versus the size of room and our view was mainly trees and a peek of sea view..and the bar was under our balcony which made it not that private and a bit noisy.
Reception staff very good,breakfast was amazing,lovely staff at breakfast,great coffee ,everything you could ever what available for breakfast.
The staff at pool good,but think sunbed service would add to experience and surely you would increase sales?
The staff at bounty bar during the day I found them uninterested and had a long wait,each time we went there,I think this area could do with a tidy up and maybe some new furniture on the beach..
In the evening we visited twice,the service was great,but both times I had to return my food Luke warm,bland very disappointing.
The pool.sunbed,towels,beach area, all really good,though some of the wooden items around umbrella are looking untidy.
Overall would revisit and recommend hotel.

I specifically booked a seaview room but got downgraded to a partial seaview room where it was more a view over the pool. I feel I was cheated since I had paid more for a sea view

The staff from the front desk to housekeeping were wonderful. Room was comfortable and the bathroom was spacious. Lots of sun lounges around the large pool. It was an easy walk to the main tourist and dining area in Santa Maria

This was an amazing stay! I would recommend this hotel without reservation! This is largely because of the amazing staff, from the front desk staff, the spa staff (I had an awesome massage and body treatment), to the waitstaff and the xleaning staff! I truly hope the hotel takes care of its employees, because they deserve it! The staff took care of every need with a smile, which is not easy given the difficult jobs they hold!

Great site, clean and Nice rooms. Great pool and beach! The restaurants and bars were good though not great. There were some misunderstandings during check in and troughiut the stay that brings the rating down a notch. The Hotel needs a more coherent service policy and communication. But all inn all I do still recommend the Hotel😊

friendly personnel
quiet beach with wind shields
great variety at breakfast
~
ocean view partially not worth it - had a side view and looked straight to a "construction site", pool view definitely nicer
-
beverage prices at hotel market and restaurant
cleaning could be improved - putting our clothes in the wardrobe we found a pack of cigarettes and a lighter the customers before us forgot there

+ Beautiful hotel with a wonderful garden.
+ Staff at breakfast are delightful.
- Comically awful receptionists. The guys at the front desk should honestly not be working in a customer facing position.
- Do not get the room with “sea view” - trust me, there is no sea view.
- Overcharging and “mistakes” by staff.
- Fire alarm going off randomly at night with no apology or explanation offered.
- Annoying “credit” system for opening a tab and charging on the room
Massively overpriced for what you get. Regret staying here.

Small things that I would expect were missing. No robe or slippers in the room. No remote control for the air conditioning. Not a big deal but they make the difference.

Good hotel with modern rooms. Excellent breakfast. Beautiful pool area surrounded by palms. Just back from the beach where there was a good seafood restaurant. Walking along the beach up to the town centre felt safe at night. We had a baby with us and so it was a good first stay in Cabo Verde.

I was here for a short 4-night stay as a treat to myself for my birthday. The hotel is beautiful, clean and everyone was helpful.I felt safe walking around Santa Maria, and there’s a decent amount of things to see/do on Sal island. It was the perfect respite, I’d genuinely love to return.

Nice property and facilities. Was the most expensive hotel we stayed at during our Cabo Verde trip and given price/value expectations we were disappointed with breakfast and functioning of shower.

It was a great one-week stay at Hilton. Very clean, fantastic comfortable beds, just on the beach, very nice pool area and great internet connection from

Great place to stay! Beautiful hotel with great views, pool, and beach access. Breakfast Buffett was great. Only negative side was a clear shortage of poolside and beach chairs, which led to people hoarding them.

Perfect location on the outskirts of Santa Maria. Excellent wifi. Very good buffet food. Towels included. Beautiful gardens to sunbathe/lounge in. Pool is not heated so chilly on cloudy days. Beds were comfortable but slightly too soft for me. Large spacious kingsize room. Twin room was smaller and the "ocean view" was not great as the balcony overlooked the vacant plot next door awaiting the casino to be built. Staff were very good but we had a few minor misunderstandings due to language barrier. 70 euros for private taxi return to airport was too much for a ride in a shabby bald-tyred minibus with a cracked windscreen, broken door handle and no seatbelts. There are plenty of official taxis cheaper.

Top hotel, great pool.
