Location close to Tarrafal beach.
Breakfast was very good. Mini fridge refilled every day for no extra cost was so so thoughtful, plus the bottle of wine to welcome us. The bathroom had shower gels, perfumes, shampoo, cotton buds, hair dryer, body lotion... it was all about great extras at this B&B. The place is also quiet and very relaxing.
Irène is such a nice person, she organized a fishing trip for us. She was always offering great advice about literally anything 😄 and we can confirm her advice were worth it.
Thanks again Irene and stay the same!

Very cosy little town with nice beach and friendly local people. You can eat very affordable in local bars/restaurants or choose European food in couple of restaurants. The center is quite small, so you walk around easy. Beach is nice and not too much people.

Amazing beach, friendly people, very nice "city" to walk around. Not much to do there so a couple of days are enough to get to know the place, but can't hurt to stay longer and just relax at the beach that is AMAZING!
You can eat at Cegonha, Buzios or at the Vista Mar hotel restaurant next to the beach!
Seafood and fish is really fresh.

IF you are stuck in Praia, do like the locals and go to Tarrafal for the weekend. Its beach beats anything you find in Praia. If you are a diver and conditions are too poor in the south, look for Santiago diving and have a great dive.
Even the trip there is amazing with impressive mountains. Take a taxi for 60 Euro's or a bus for 5 euro per person, departing from the Sucopira Market.
For the rest, its just a cute little town.
This is a simple guesthouse but it has everything enough for a pleasant stay. Great location, view of the sea direct from the balcony (take a room with the sea view!) and sleeping with the sound of waves. A few steps to the beach and Tarrafal's central square.
Nice, clean and well-ventilated room. Some previous guests complained about lack of glass in windows but we found wooden shutters perfectly OK and even when closed they let a lot of daylight.
Breakfast included i.a. fresh papaya and was served on the roof terrace, with great views.
THE place to be in Tarrafal! Where you meet fellow travelers! Central location, close to everything: beach, shops, restaurants, shared taxi station, markets...etc. Staff is extremely helpful, constantly cleaning, fixing, socializing and making sure we have everything we need. Delicious and nutritious breakfast, you get to order how you want your eggs cooked. Spacious, clean, sunny room with a large balcony. Comfortable couches in the common areas. Really enjoyed my stay there!

location is excellent, beach front surrounded by sea views and close to all restaurants and Tarrafal city centre

Attentive and welcoming owners. Very good breakfast and excellent location including clean rooms! I love the relaxful terrace where I had a breathtaking view of the city of Tarrafal de Santiago. I will surely come back!
The place was amazing and we had a great time talking to Antonio, learning mire about Tarrafal and other places in Cape Verde. Nice terrace,
very well equipped kitchen and close proximity to the beach and cafes/shops.
The hotel was great, calm and clean. You can enjoy the beach located in front of the hotel, you'll share it mainly with families, and youth groups. You can even have some natural coconut water from local marchands.
Johnny always replied quickly and arrangement to pick and drop the keys were really good.
The location is really good: close to the beach and to the best Cachupa we tasted (Café Central Tarrafal).
