Bien

Bien placé dans le village pour aller voir les tortues ou marcher le.long de la plage. Petit déjeuner très bien et personnel accueillant.

Il pourrait y avoir un ventilateur et l'insonorisation n'est pas super. Rapport qualité un peu cher.

Séjour décevant

L’hôtel est joli, minimaliste et très propre, bien situé proche de l’océan. Le petit-déjeuner était assez complet et le personnel a été arrangeant pour nous le servir plus tôt pour que nous puissions nous restaurer avant notre excursion.

Nous avons été déçus par cet établissement. Il s’agissait de l’hôtel le plus cher de notre séjour au Cap-Vert (tarif 120€ la nuit pour la suite) or il n’a pas été à la hauteur de nos attentes. La wifi n’est disponible qu’à la réception, ce qui pourrait facilement être amélioré pour étendre l’accès aux chambres. L’absence de climatisation a également été problématique en journée (la nuit, nous avons dormi la fenêtre grand ouverte et avec le ventilateur très bruyant fourni). Le staff est globalement peu avenant. Une autre suggestion d’amélioration : mettre des coussins ou à minima des serviettes sur les transats de la suite - nous n’en avons malheureusement pas profité…

Perfect place in San Pedro

Die Unterkunft ist super gemütlich und sauber. Das Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit🙏🏽 Das Frühstück ist toll und die Lage ist super zentral. Es wird kein Plastik verwendet und das Wasser wird wiederverwendet. Sehr zu empfehlen ☺️

Alles war super, vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt 🙏🏽

Nostalgique de cet endroit

J’ai pris une chambre qui donnait sur la mer tout simplement exceptionnel C’est propre, la plage, juste à côté est géniale On peut se baigner avec les tortues géantes C’est un endroit authentique, vraiment génial Personnel adorable

Le petit déjeuner n’est vraiment pas bon Pour ceux qui n’ont pas une chambre vue mer la meute de chiens du village va vous casser les oreilles toute la nuit

Muy recomendable

A destacar la predisposición de los trabajadores por ayudar, especialmente Decia. Muy limpio, muy bien ubicado y desayuno rico y abundante. Las camas cómodas y dan ventilador por si pasas calor por las noches. Baño limpio. Además tiene buenas instalaciones para familias porque existe la posibilidad de coger cuartos conectados. Espacios comunes muy cómodos. Recomendamos coger la excursión de las tortugas con el hotel o los chicos del pueblo. Ellos te cobran 15€ mientras en civitatis cobran entre 40€ y 60€, de los cuales luego solo pagan a los chicos del pueblo 7€ ya que la propia empresa no realiza la excursión. Se encuentra en un pueblo muy acogedor con gente muy amable y dispuesta ayudar. Si vuelvo a Sao Pedro repetiría el hotel.

Todo genial, nada negativo.

Estada perfecte per quedar-se uns dies à Sao Pedro o per arribar o marxar cap a l'aeroport.

Hotel preciós, eco-friendly. Al costat de la platja. Personal agradable i molt atent. Esmorzar complet i molt bo. La planta de baix és on s'esmorza, durant el día és una zone d'estar molt agradable i al vespre hi pots estar amb els amics/família. Tenen contacte directe amb les empreses locals per anar a veure les tortugues verdes.

Les habitacions són estretes, però el fet que tot estigui tan net i agradable se t'oblida ràpid.

Would recommend for short stay!

Supercool, industrial design while being eco. We had the room at the very top with a great balcony! Sat there in the evening and watched as night fell onto Sao Pedro and its people. Also super close to the beach, where we had dinner at a beach bar. It seems to be the best turtle spotting area just 100m from shore, and you can easily book a snorkling trip. Breakfast was also surprisingly great, with jams, joghurts, fruits, etc. We only stayed on evening/night, as we were bound for the airport.

The room had ventilation, but no aircondition - to be expected in an eco hotel, but it made the nights quite warm. Also, the area around is reallife Cabo Verde, so you also see poor people and more residential areas (we liked to see the true daily life though). I would only stay one or two nights for turtle spotting especially.

A great place to spend a night or two and enjoy the beach and turtle watching.

very close to airport and nice breakfast.

no fan in rooms so with window open, can be hard to sleep with dogs barking.

Lovely and comfortable.

The suite is beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. The staff is superfriendly and good breakfast. They arrange swimming with turtles for 15 euro. Watching the coulors of the ocean AT sunrise is incredibly beautiful. It is situated close enough to Mindelo to be able to go out at night and catch a taxi back,

There are two buildings being constructed between the hotel and the beach which interfers with in all others says perfect view of the beach.

Good value

Nice white wooden rooms, decent size. The hotel is quiet and located in the center of Sao Pedro village, 3min walk from the beach. The breakfast was fresh and good. Staff is available and helpful with recommendations.

Sao Pedro is very small so once you've tried the 4 restaurants there, you will need to take a cab (10eur) or a local bus (1eur) to Mindelo. The beach is often windy, can be tricky to sunbath.

Helpful staff, inconvenient location.

Love the design of the place. The shower is great, and the room is spacious, the bed comfortable. Stephen was the only receptionist to speak English during my week in Cape Verde, which was very helpful.

The location. I booked the hotel as it is close to the airport, but taxis had to come from Mindelo to pick me up, meaning the price and time taken was just the same or more as travelling to the airport from central Mindelo. Two things mentioned by previous travellers - it would be helpful if I received a key to get into the hotel (on one occasion I was waiting outside for 20 minutes calling the reception and banging on the door before a fellow traveller let me in). And having a bracket to hold the shower head would be handy.

Very good

We had a great stay in the Suite at the top floor with a superb view. At night you can leave the balcony door open and sleep with a gentle ocean breeze and the sound of the waves. Slept really well. A more basic type of hotel with is it's charme. Location is perfect, just a few metres from the beach and restaurants. Very clean rooms and nice local breakfast. Staff is super friendly and Stiven from the reception can help with anything.

Amazing and quiet spot! Thanks Steven!

Wonderful stay! The hotel has an amazing architecture. We went in December, so it was super quiet. Steven and the rest of the staff were absolutely fantastic! They organized our stuff and luggage during room service! Expect African sightseeing views. The beach is 1 minute away and one of the best we visited - don’t forget to have a drink at the turtle bar, play some football with the fishermen, and to swim with the turtles!

Awning in the balcony would be a plus. And more things/tours/shops to visit in that area. Hopefully that will be possible soon!

Visite São Pedro and be amazed!

The guys from the reception are extraordinary! They gave us all the information we needed and helped us arrange anything. From snorkling with turtles to the transportation to the airport. Also the hotel is nice and clean. The room on the top of the building had an awesome view of the sea and beach! Would reccomend, 10/10!

Nothing to complain about!

Cool eco-hotel, very nice design

Great cool hotel in San Pedro, 50m away from the beach. I stayed in the suite with sea view for a discounted price (75 euro), and this was really magnificent. Sleep with the terrace door open and fall asleep with the sound of the ocean, lovely. I wouldn't recommend it for a longer stay, because there's not much going on in San Pedro, other then walking on the magnificent beach, or take a dive with the sea turtles, that are swimming around about 100m away from the shore. There are 2 restaurants/bars on the beach were you can eat and drink well.

There is no wifi in the rooms, only at the common area downstairs. Also, breakfast is rather basic...

Very calm stay in a very nice place

The staff is super friendly and helps you with all your needs. The location of the hotel is very near the hotel which is convenient if you have an early morning flight.

It is an ECO hotel, but the shower head is not attached which is a little inconvenient from time to time, but there is not much other notable things.

Nice and relaxed stay on Sao Vicente☀️

the staff was very friendly and helpful. The property is located very close to the beach where you can swim with turtles. Nearby is also a walk to the lighthouse. It’s a perfect stay when you want to take it easy on Sao Vicente since Sao Pedro is a small village compared to Mindelo. Breakfast is nice with fresh fruit, handmade papaya jam and coffee/tea. The standard room is very basic.

All was very nice, but if we had to come up with something, the shower head is not attached to the wall and there is no airco which results in a quite warm room.

good stay, but I was expecting a little more!

Its a nice hotel, however it’s VERY minimalistic, maybe a little too minimalistic. It definitely needs a little maintenance and refreshing of the exterior and the rooms. We booked the only suite which is in the top floor (4th floor and only stairs), but it’s just a regular room with a balcony facing the houses in the neighborhood and the beach! The pictures are a bit misleading! Its nice that it’s a sustainable and eco-friendly hotel, however it needs a bit of maintenance and love, as it looks worn. The staff was absolutely amazing, welcoming, extremely helpful and super nice! We had a very early checkout, and they went all out and served us a beautiful breakfast, fresh bread, fresh fruit, coffee, water etc! We chose to eat in Mindelo which is a 15-20 min car ride, as the choices around the hotel are quite limited! Make sure to support the local sea turtles guides, absolutely amazing experience!! Safe for adults and children!

A bit worn out, needs maintenance! The area is a bit limited.
