After 2 weeks on Santiago this is the only place I genuinely would recommend. First of all, the location. The famous Plateau is good only for a very short visit. This area is much nicer, safer, more relaxed. There are a lot of beautiful and colorful houses around, as well as many really nice restaurants / bars and the central beach (which is really good!) - all within 15 min walk max. The owner of the hotel really pays attention to every single detail. The staff is not just friendly, they are also very professional and truly understand what does it mean to work in HoReCa (which is rarely the case on Santiago unfortunately!) My stay was super comfortable and I appreciated that everyone was going above and beyond to make me feel welcomed and relaxed. I was very touched when I didn’t feel too well and the owner made sure to constantly check on me and provide me with everything and anything needed. The restaurant and bar by the hotel are very nice as well, overall it felt like a very fair value for money and I wish I’d make this place my main base during my trip.

The location is excellent when using a rental car because it is easy to make a righthand turn into a parking lot - not disturbing impatient cars behind. And car rental on Santiago Island can be recommended because of amazing scenerey and good hiking possibilities....

Apto Morabeza T2 Praia is an excellent apartment in a very pleasant area of the city (Palmarejo). Ricardo and Sandra are very hospitable, they provided me with a small tour of the area (shops, restaurants, access to public transport) and information on the city etc. I stayed in the apartment by myself but it is set up to fit 4 people comfortably. It was new, very clean, well kept and very comfortable. And last but not least, the shower has wonderful hot water. I was so surprised that the hosts offered me a lift to Cidade Velha (14 km away) when they had to be there for a family function on my day of arrival. It saved me lots of time, especially as Ricardo and his family showed me around the harder to reach sights (fort high above the town) and offered historical context to fort, ruins, church etc. but most of all, I enjoyed their hospitality. Will come back here for sure, if I happen to travel to Praia again.

It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman.

It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman. Do NOT go out alone or at night. My housemate and I went to a beach that was 6-7 walking minutes away. It was absolutely lovely. We went at 6pm and left at 8pm. It was dark. Unfortunately 2 masked children (of about 12) tried to "jump" us with knives. I've been traveling for 30 years and robbed 7 times before (including this; that averages out to 1/4 years and I AM VERY WHITE, with blue eyes, blond hair and stand out in certain places, so I may be an "easy target". Still, I've never had knives drawn on me. So PLEASE be careful, especially if you are women. BE SMART. I wasn't. Thankfully all I walked away with was some PTSD and bad memories, but they had masks & REAL KNIVES and it could have been VERY BAD.

Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere found on the other Cape Verde islands. The local population generally doesn’t speak English and often seems offended if you don’t speak to them in Portuguese. Tourists are frequently stared at, which can make you feel a bit out of place, and the overall impression is that visitors aren’t always welcome. We had a bad experience in Praínha, where persistent children came up asking for money, while older men seemed to be eyeing our bags left on the towels. We ended up having to leave immediately by taxi. Outside of the Plateau—the only area recommended for tourists and heavily patrolled by military and police—you don’t really feel safe.

Actually I’m a Nigerian. When I traveled there I found it difficult to communicate in Cape Verde due to I can’t speak Portuguese. But there are another islands that they do speak English there. in this country 99% people speaks Portuguese. So that’s just my experience. But the was nice and peaceful

If you are visiting the islands of Cabo Verde, do Praia first. The beaches are a far cry from the ones in Boa Vista or Sal. It is nice to go to Cidade Velha which is a UNESCO site 12km away. It is really picturesque and is the first place the portugese landed in 1462. Absolutely worth a visit.

I would have spent 3 days there maximum and spent the other 4 days in Tarrafal, instead. In general I enjoyed my stay there, but Tarrafal it’s a different world, where you can actually feel the culture and be surrounded with beauty. Cidade abelha is also a must and it’s absolutely beautiful. I would have loved to manage to see the typical ceramics, but people don’t talk much and don’t value much (unfortunately). I actually went to Sai Domingos on purpose to see it, but the locals said it was closed.

I loved the sun, the water, the history of the people, the moutains and the rest of the land, the beaches, Tarrafel and the kindness of the people. Its a great place for a vacation if you just want sun and the easy life on the beach or climbing mountain trails if you like. I will return!!

As soon as we arrived, I recognised the place. I had popped in for a beer on a previous trip while exploring the area on a layover to Maio while staying a mile or so away. The property is in an excellent location for the local beaches. The hotel has a large pool which was not overcrowded and seems to be focused to a business clientele. Breakfast was a typical buffet affair catering to most needs. I did like the Cachupa! Our room was very large. An ideal location to explore the town of Praia and the surrounding areas.

Very nice guesthouse located in a quiet neighbourhood just a short walk to the beach. Our room was spacious and nicely furnished. We liked the common space with games and info on local activity providers. Syd was super helpful. The breakfast we got at Syd’s was absolutely the best we had during our three weeks’ journey on various Cabo Verde islands.
