Casa Pé di Polon - Holiday home with mountain view

ElodieRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We had a lovely stay at this authentic little house in the Picos Valley. A peaceful place where simplicity reigns. In addition, Lina's little dishes delighted us. We discovered the traditional Cape Verdean cuisine. Lina is a discreet neighbor who cares about the well-being of hosts. Our children enjoyed accompanying her husband to feed the animals. In short, a place with a beautiful soul.

A sandy beach is visible, with gentle waves lapping at the shoreline. A large rock formation is situated offshore, surrounded by clear blue waters. The distant coastline is partially visible, enhancing the tranquil coastal scene.

"Kaza Mamai di Fora," the comfort of your stay

StephanRating, 5 stars2 months ago

I felt very comfortable in Maria De Fátima's house, everything was clean and corresponded to the photos. The shower has neat water pressure, the bed is comfortable and with mosquito net. As a small welcome, juice and water were even waiting for me in the fridge. Thank you in this way! Communication with Maria worked smoothly; if I'm in the area again, happy to come back!

Villa Nayeli Luxury & Simplicity

MonaRating, 5 stars5 months ago

We had a wonderful time at Inkie's. The house is huge and luxurious. On the roof terrace you have an incredibly beautiful view of all the mountains. From the apartment, you can hike various routes and enjoy the scenery. Communication with Inkie was very easy and friendly. On request, you can also have very delicious food delivered to the apartment. Simply great!

Finca Pedra Molar (Villa)

MaiaRating, 5 stars11 months ago

great house and reactive host. pool and house are clean. kitchen with everything you need to cook. the house itself is perfect. the only negative I could say is, if you are a light sleeper you could be bothered by stray dogs barking, rooster and pigs in the morning.

camping and cabin park

AnitaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Aristides is a special Cape Verdean, who shapes hospitality with love and passion. You can tell from the location itself but also from the lovingly prepared meals, the singing and the tour he provides in the area. Lemba Lemba (= step by step), the name of the complex is much more than a marketing concept, namely a lived, cheerful and inspiring way of life. Aristides, his people and the location itself let you experience what it really is all about ♥️

Casa dos amigos (Tchuca&Osvaldo) Calheta São Miguel

DanielRating, 5 stars2 months ago

The accommodation is very good, the amenities are good. The shops and the sea are close. But above all Maria is exceptional, close, responsive, friendly. Excellent pastry chef, she offered us good cake. It feels like home. Her husband speaks English and a little French. I recommend this beautiful experience.

Thanks to Nelson for his perfect accommodation for our family, and his responsiveness in exchanges!
