A perfect stay – absolutely loved it! We had an amazing time at Your Home Away From Home! The house is spotless, very well equipped, and truly feels like a home. The pool was a dream — super clean and perfect for relaxing after a day out. The beds were comfy, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the Wi-Fi was great. Everything was exactly as described (if not better!). The hosts were incredibly kind and responsive, and the whole experience was smooth from start to finish. We’ll definitely come back — highly recommended without hesitation!

“We greatly enjoyed our stay and had a very relaxing time!”
The owner of the property Señora Lurdes was very kind and helpful. She ensured that all our needs were promptly met. She personally met us at the ferry station and drove us to the house. The house was extremely clean and equipped with all modern facilities. The water pressure in the shower rooms was excellent! The house is located centrally and a short walk to the coastal area with great restaurants and view points. Sr. Lurdes speaks English like a native speaker ( after many years of living in the U.S.) and she has equipped her gorgeous house to the American standards. There are many beautiful potted and naturally growing plants in the property, there is a lovely swimming pool in a beautiful private setting in the backyard amidst many beautiful potted flowers. The property is secured. Sr. Lurdes suggested to us a great place with a morna ( Caboverdian unique musical style) show and we greatly enjoyed the show and the food there.

“Wunderbarer Aufenthalt mit freundlicher und engagierter Gastgeberin”
The apartment was clean and full equipped. We enjoyed very much the fresh bread service in the morning. We have had nice hours with a two years old baby at the pool. Supermarket in 300 m, what means 2 minutes away by foot. City center 6 min. by taxi - 200 CVE (ca. 2 €) The modern shopping center 8 min. by foot with very nice brakfast or small lunch and beautiful seaview. Lu was a great landlord and very helpful. She arranged very nice sideseing trips with Calu. A friendly drive, who speaks French. She arranged the transportservice to the airport at 2 o# clock in the night. Should we visit Cabo Verde again we would rent there again. Thank you Lu!
