Everything was great! The room was very comfortable and the ocean view (also overlooking the pool) was amazing. Breakfast had so much variety and products were good quality. Also special thanks to the staff who prepared a sweet surprise in our room after I informed them that it was our anniversary. They also let us check in two hours earlier than usual. Overall a very pleasant experience!

It was amazing! Aaron and Ellen created a beautiful and peaceful place in the nature and at the same there is nothing you will miss. They helped with planing trips, organized great guides and explained the island and the culture while serving cocktails! We will come back!

Excellent location for eating and shopping in the beautiful town center. But TAKE CARE about the so-called Tourist Guides outside of the hotel trying to sell guided tours. I pre-payed ONE HUNDRED EURO for an agreed price of two-hundred euro covering a full guided round-trip on Fogo island including volcano visit. When walking up an volcano the guide told me being only participant that the walk was a change in schedule and the full price would be ONE THOUSAND EURO - and that he had access to a credit card machine. I decided to leave the minibus and walk all the way back to Sao Philipe. Next day the host of Hotel Savana told me that he is an authorized tourist guide and the he did NOT do anything illegal - believe it or not...

Great location near Prairinha (famous beach). The wifi is super good. Breakfast had various options including local dish 'Cashoupa'... if I am getting it right. It is in a quiet area. The rooms are big with lots of natural light.

The property is very modern, with great design and very clean. Outstanding attention to customers. We returned here a few days after our stay and asked to keep our luggages for the afternoon and they let us do that free of charge. Breakfast was amazing and rich, and they serve dinner too with many options.

    I can recommend this hotel to anyone who visits Sao Filipe. the location is great, next to the beach and in the city center. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast very tasty. But most of all the friendly staff will help you out with anything. we rented a car at the reception, they picked us up at the airport for free and helped us out with our next stay in CV. Will definitely cone back here if I have the opportunity!

    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.

    Tarrafal by itself is nice to visit for a few days. Beach, good restaurants, you can do hikes on Monte Graciosa, and Tras os Montes. Restaurant 'chez mama' has some hiking maps. And good food too. I spent most of my time fishing. From the rocks at Punta Atum, of from a boat. One thing to keep in mind. Tarrafal in August is hot. You can go up to Serra Malagueta where it is cooler. But rainy in August.

    Two days in Fogo is way too short - but I booked nine more days in the wonderful hotel Ocean View - and that was a perfect lenght for visiting this VERY interesting island Fogo. But DO NOT react to ANYBODY offering You ANYTHING in the street - I had real bad experience with that - a tourist guide cheated mo for one hundred euro plus a wasted day...

    Portela is a magnific place inside a Vulcano crater, i just wanted to stay longer.... you can see the volcano all the time, such magnific view. People are umble and welcome, vilage quiet and great if you travel with kids as they can just go free. There is so much to do if you love geology and treking, such as hile the big vulcano and/or smalers, hike trough lava fillds, explore caves... but also vias ferratas and long trails, you can also go down hiking to mosteiros trough cofe fields (you can arrange it for someone to take yous big bags downs and catch you on the road at the end of the cofe fields to take you to the boat to Praia). The vilage is small and easy to go around, by night there is no much light outside better bring a headlamp. The food is all home made and delicios, we eat in Sonia and Ze house (sweet chiken, beans), Helena (cachupa and omlet) and Isabela (stuwe pig, fish with cream). we had a 4yo and we mostly hiked with him on the backpack, some parts he would go on his foot... things he loved running down the sand hills (big vulcano and small vulcano separated), walk trough the lava fields and sand, draw on sand, play with local kids.

    Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere...

    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.

    This location and guest house is not about fluffy pillows nor spa facilities. It's for adventure, it's at the top of a volcano and has limited resources, though with that, the guest house team is VERY accommodating. Meals were delicious, books and games were provided to pass time in the quiet evenings. The surrounding community experience is WONDERFUL. Highly recommend.
