Emoyeni Gardens, hotel in São Tomé

Emoyeni Gardens provides beachfront accommodation in São Tomé. This property also boasts a restaurant and a year-round outdoor pool. All rooms are fitted with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels....

Great communication with the team before arrival. Jane offered to set me up with tours etc. upon arrival, even trying to connect travellers to share excursions. The room was comfortable and had a good size. Air-con worked without a hitch, but insulation/ventilation was quite good, so I actually didn't need it much. The pool is a bonus, but the beach opposite is actually is nice for a city beach. It's a little far from shops/supermarkets, but close to the nicer restaurants in town. Unlike other places in São Tomé, I felt the staff genuinely enjoys working at Emoyeni Gardens and was always friendly and courteous.

    An unknown jewel!

    An unknown jewel! We visited idyllic places, saw the most amazing sunsets over tropical beaches & saw very few tourists. Most of the locals were very friendly and helpful. It is a photographic paradise.

    They have a lot of historical sites and great beaches and islands with friendly people and lots of local cuisines. The city is in bad shape and bad roads and they need to develop the tourism sector particularly their tourist sites . The airport is bad for a tourism country like that and the hotels needs to up their services to meet a value for money and they need to learn English language which is an international language especially the staff of the various hotels and all tour guides. It’s a great place to visit at most for 5days.

    Sao Tome is a fantastic destination.

    Sao Tome is a fantastic destination. A safe tropical Island almost untuched from the outside world. It is not for unseasoned travellers or the ones who want a lot of service and/or Diesney like conditions. It can be a bit costly and you have to bring cash in form of smaller Euro banknote denominations. Crime, political instability and diseases are much less than in surrounding countries, wich makes travelling here hazzelfree. The climate in the dry season (june-august) feels comfortable, especialy considering that it is tropical Africa. The islands abound with green lush tropical forrest with a lot of exotic fruits, fantastic beaches and some interesting sights. The food is good especially the fresh fish and shellfish, as well as the multitude of excotic fruits and vegetables. In Sao tomé Town I especially recomend the following restaurants/cafees : Papa figo, Camoes and Pastelaria Central, You get much more from your visit if you can speak portuguese. No Visa for 14 Days travel for EU citizens, no need for yellow fever vaccination certficate if travelling from Europe. There is four flights a week with TAP (portuguese) and one flight a week with STP (Sao tome air company)

    It´s a Paradise!!!

    It´s a Paradise!!! You have to go and see all the sand beaches and eat all the fresh fishes. You have to experiment the santola in the restaurant with the same name. Go to Ilheu das Rolas! Very beautiful!

    Language barrier is too problematic.

    Language barrier is too problematic. English is something that even restaurants have difficulty to understand. Beaches are good. Can spend some lonely time at night without much trouble. Brush up on Portuguese language very well or one may end up not having a good meal! Loved to see the Boca De Inferno. The water gushing the rocks is awesome. Smooth roads give you the enjoyable drive towards the south of the island. The Great Dog Peak was worth a view! Loved to eat seafood at the Ilyang Ilyang Restaurant with a peaceful ambience and English understanding staff.

    The climate, the forest and the scenic tropical views were unmatched. There are two main phenomenons regarding STome people: leve-leve and doce-doce. The first is very welcome when on holiday but can become a problem when you want to get things going. The second is more of a bittersweet feeling. It can be sweet when seeing it for the first time especially with children, but this turns to harrassment pretty quickly.

    From the capital (Sao Tome) , you will have a beautiful , yet challenging road ahead (approximately 2,5 hours, heaviest is Porto Alegre, even for a 4x4). But it is a reason to take it. The lodge is on a beautiful and breathtaking cliff. Amazing views. Driving in to the ecolodge area is just amazing. Pineapples all around, not to mention the rest. The cottage was spik and span and comfy. Different viewsites with well built platforms to do that. Beach within walking distance. Lot of different surfaces (rocks, sand, plants etc.)

    The owner, Nilda, is a genuinely nice and friendly lady who is very helpful. She coordinated with a money changer for our Euros to Dobras at a better exchange rate than anyone else. Our room was simple but clean and comfortable. The shared bathroom was also very clean. Free street parking and strong Wifi are two pluses. We used this casa as our base to explore São Tomé and it was perfect. Lots of great restaurants in town and easy to explore the north, central and southern sections of the island from here.

    It's a very big house: bedroom with private bathroom, living room, fully equiped kitchen, terrace and a beach. And we were there alone (with two lovely dogs). The house is so comfortable that we stayed longer than we planned. We bought all food we needed in a big supermarket in Sao Tome city. It's ideal place for independent travelers. Communication with the host was very good, we were taken from and to the airport, the house was guarded at nights. We felt very safe during all our journey..

    The location is great on the side of the town, you can walk to restaurants and markets easily. There is a rental car company on the side of the hotel that is very convenient. The front desk staff are very kind and helpful. The room was a good size. The central garden and pool are a good size and surrounded by mature trees and lots of birds. It's a nice space that the rooms overlook. We could walk directly out to the pool from the room.

    Hard to find anything bad to say about this hotel - everything works well. The manager is very hands on and obviously well liked by her staff and it translates into an excellent experience throughout. There are copious common spaces to hand out and the rooms are spacious. The restaurant and bar were also good experiences. It was very convenient to. the airport and the airport transfers worked very well.

    Geovanni is a very welcoming host that speaks English very well. The rooms are clean and tidy and offer everything you need. The breakfast the served is delivious and gets you ready for the day exploring São Tomé. The location is right in the city center and allows you to explore everything by foot. I have stayed there various times and always enjoy coming back.

    Excellent location within walking distance to the heart of the city but still quiet and tranquil. The owners were extremely helpful and provided great recommendations for days trips, activities and restaurants. They arranged a vehicle rental for us and a day trip to a beautiful island off the south shore of Sao Tome.

    Praia is a great place for families, it has plenty of space for children to run and play. Food is good, and staff are amicable and helpful. The beach in front of the hotel is not very appealing, but you can easily take daily tours to different parts of the island to enjoy the more beautiful beaches.

    The breakfast was simple, but one of the better ones we had in Sao Tome. It is close to downtown so it's easy to get markets, fresh bread, and groceries nearby. This is a budget hotel and it is Africa so the wife and power go out sometimes, but the AC worked well; that was a huge plus.

    The location is exceptional, everything is in the walking distance from the hotel. The only thing which may more far is a beach where you can swim, but it is no problem with all transport facilities. The personnel is welcoming and always ready to help.
