Stayed here with our family, 14 in total, for 2 weeks in February 2026. Great hotel with good choice of restaurants some of which needed to be booked but no problem except 1 restaurant (see below). Staff are generally friendly and room staff very good keeping the room clean and fresh at all times. Hotel pools are cold but there was always plenty of loungers available. Poolside bar at main pool was very convenient; also snacks all day at main pool. Main Spices restaurant can be busy but there was always enough room to sit. Staff very efficient at clearing tables. Only problem we had was with Secret Garden restaurant which I have covered in a seperate review - in summary food was very poor and not BBQ as advertised. Beach restaurant and bar is definitely my favourite, great atmosphere and really friendly staff; I would have my lunch here every day.

Just came back from a 10 night stay Hotel was nice a little tired in certain areas. I do feel for an all inclusive hotel and not much to do of an evening the entertainment needs to be upgraded. Pools and beaches were excellent Pool bar staff were excellent a few names I would like to mention Leticia excellent very pleasant at her job Nerlene excellent too Ricardo worked the bar on a evening again excellent Ericsson excellent Edition Jacira All staff were good but these few were outstanding a credit to your hotel. Food in main restaurant was good needed to be a bit warmer but apart from that always plenty of choice. The ACabana bar on the beach lunches were excellent and a couple of evenings we booked there were very good to. Didn't think much to the Italian restaurant, the others we did not try. Overall we had a lovely stay Thankyou

Great, but it has its limitations. The hotel is from 2011, so you can expect some dated rooms, compared to the sister hotels (Llana or Dunas). However, the garden is marvelous and the trip in the gardens makes up for it. In terms of service, everything was ok. Not great, not terrible. When we arrived, they rushed to get the room ready for us, instead of finishing cleaning, so towels and some bedsheets were dirty. It got fixed afterwards, but still quite a bad impression. After this, cleaning was done alright daily. In terms of food, we had AI, so there was plenty of it. Quite repetitive, despite the hotel promoting different cuisines every day. Also, if you’re a vegetarian, options are very limited. On the other side, there are 4x a la carte restaurants included in the AI concept: - La Cabana -> On the brach, lovely for a romantic dinner from a location point-of-view and with absolutely fantastic food. However, service there is TERRIBLE! - Pasta Nostra -> Italian based, great service, decent food - Secret Garden -> Grill-based restaurant, interesting and with ok service. - Aqua Nikkey -> Haven’t tried it There are plenty of bars as well around the resort, so you can pretty much always pick-up a drink. Drinks are decent, but not mind-blowing. If you want some well-known brands, you’ll have to get the premium bracelet. There were show animations every day and activities throughout the day, so there is always some activity. Last, but not least, quite a few cats around the resort to keep you company and cheered up.

We had a very good time at this resort. 5 restaurants for you to choose from and so many pools. Range of different food for everyone don’t even think twice just book it and enjoy! Fred and Antonio were the best, lovely communication and friendly service with a smile at all the time.

Decent hotel - you have a room with some cleaning, nice pool and garden, some things you can eat all inclusive, and some helpful staff....But all of these limited. Only 3 stars for now, will need to level up their standards to be a 5 star hotel. It was expectable for the money paid, so I only recommend it to people who want to spare some money and make a cheap stay in Cape Verde.
