Barlavento Islands Hotels

We enjoyed the hotel so much that we extended our stay by two days. We felt very at home and comfortable. It was great to go for a swim in the pool or relax on a sofa after long walks and tours.

This place is an absolute joy. The rooms were spacious and clean and very comfortable. All of the lobby and public areas were impeccable.

Best hotel I have stayed in cabo verde. The only friendly staff I found. Great views even if you have a side room. Super clean and the only good breakfast I got. Dont think twice.
Best quality price.

Arriving at the hotel without reservation in late afternoon was easy and the personnel friendly. The room with balcony and view to the sea and small harber was perfect.

Overall experience perfect. The hotel is really nice, with a lot of entertainment and amazing facilities.

We visited from the 20th to the 27th of December and had an amazing time.

We stayed at a couple hotels in Sao Vicente but our stay at Kira’s was absolutely the best. Genuine friendly staff, clean rooms, central location, great breakfast. I would 100% stay here again.

Highly recommend staying here if you travel to Mindelo! The owner Isabel and the rest of the staff who work there are extremely kind and welcoming.

Great hotel with excellent service.
The rooms are neat and clean. We really enjoyed the junior suite.
The food in the restaurant was okay, but I think the quality of the produce used was not constant.

A great hotel in Santa Maria with a very good location if you are looking for somewhere a little more tucked away and quieter.

Great place to relax and rewind. Located next to the beach and a short walk from the main street in Santa Maria.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. Reception gave us our room key quickly, gave us a quick story about the hotel and even gave us a gift for us to keep.

We stayed at Sakaroule for four days and had a wonderful experience.

Good location, close to the city center, restaurants, supermarkets. Self-check-in possible, they leave the key. Friendly staff. Simple small breakfast with delicious coffee from Cape Verde.

We had 5 amazing days at Casa das Ilhas. Katelijne is an excellent host, taking care of everyone with individual attention. The dinners were tasty.

Wonderful experience. The whole place is a simple heaven on earth. Keep it simple and super nice. Great host and great staff always ready to help.

Beautiful accommodation! The apartment was clean and had a gorgeous view. Very close to the beach too. We had a lovely time here.

This was probably the best accommodation we had during our 18 day trip to Cabo Verde. We rented 2 apartments and the 4 bedroom one with the view over Sao Pedro Bay was amazing.

Perfect location just next to the fishing port. Ponta do Sol is probably the best place to stay to do all the hikes of the area and enjoy your evenings.

I'd say the best choice of hotel in Ponte do Sol. Rooms spacious, clean and modern, bed extremely comfortable, black-out curtains so the light doesn't wake you, and a complimentary bottle of water.

Was a bit worried the first day as I'm vegan and had a struggle with finding much to eat at the restaurants, but after talking with reception they fixed it straight away.

We stayed here for 10 days over the Christmas period and were thrilled with our choice of hotel — we even booked to return in April before we had completed our holiday.

Good location, close to the city center, cafes, beach.

This is wonderfully located five minutes from Laginha beach. A supermarket is one minute away. The rooms are clean, airy and with A/C. Plenty of hot water.

Best food we had on the island. Menu is not wide but everything is cooked with love. Can't recommend more highly. If you are on Sao Antao it is worth the detour.

We had an amazing time in Paul, Cape Verde at Black Mamba.
Relaxed athmosphere, beautiful sun rise, the food is amazing and the dog supercute.

Casa Cavoquinho is a delightful guesthouse set in the stunning landscape of Paúl, Santo Antão.

We enjoyed 2 nights at this beautiful hotel in the midst of the Paul valley. Our room, the twin, had window views all round of the valley and it was magical.

Amazing Hotel in the center of the city. Very friendly staff and owner — after checkout we were allowed to take a shower after our last beach day and store our luggage until 10pm when our driver came.

We stayed at hotel Mirabela twice this year, both stays in January 2025.

We’ve just returned home and had a fantastic stay.
The staff were absolutely excellent from start to finish. Every member of the team we interacted with was friendly, efficient and happy to help.

My husband and I had a wonderful holiday. From the minute we entered the reception everything went so smooth, they had everything down to a tee. The rooms were lovely with great sized beds.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The comfiest beds, the cutest decorations, the kindest staff, and the riches breakfast we have had in Cap Verde.

We had a wonderful stay and truly felt at home. The owner and staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, and they went out of their way to share helpful information and tips for visits and excursions.

I highly recommend this hotel, the hotel was very clean and the staff was so kind. I really enjoyed being here.
+ It was very close to the sea and the restaurants, shops, etc. Of Santa Maria.

We had a wonderful stay at Branco Suites in Santa Maria. From the very beginning, we felt warmly welcomed, and we are truly grateful for the hospitality.

We stayed here the 4 nights that we spent in Santo Antão and loved it. The staff is super friendly and competent, the room was great, the breakfast was very good, we loved it. This village is also

I liked this place, internet worked, breakfast was lovely and staff is lovely. I stayed on the ground floor, so no view, just overlooking stairs where people walk.

I stayed with them for 3 nights and I really loved it… real service, super attentive, kind, funny… honestly, it was a real pleasure 😊 And a huge plus: the restaurant and the delicious breakfasts.

A great place with amazing staff. The rooms are big and clean, with a beach view from my balcony on one side and the square on the other side. I would 100% recommend this place.

Perfect from start to finish, great rooms, friendly staff, can't wait to go back, right in town near all the restaurants and beach clubs.

Excellent hotel situated a few minutes away from the beach, shops, restaurants, and other amenities!

Bed and breakfast located at the top of higher street but within walking distance from the center.

Friendly environment, well organized, understanding group and affordable.

We had a wonderful stay at Luna for a week. It's a perfect place to explore Mindelo. It's quiet because not fully in the center yet very close to the beach.

We reserved a table outside to eat dinner and experience the live local music. It was great — the vegetarian pasta with pesto was really tasty, the red wine and the desserts were delicious.

Popular restaurant with terrace, view on the sea, every day livemusic. Need to reserve in advance. Dessert recommendation Gelado do Bolacha.
