“Does Everything it Says on the Tin - at Short Notice”
Friendly proprietor. Value for money. Decent shower. Fridge. Lots of power sockets. Availability at short notice - I'd inadvertently booked a place in Tarrafal on a completely different island.

“REALLY NICE PLACE”
Central position, really nice and big apartament. The view is also super nice. Two bathrooms and 2 rooms, it’s not clear at the beggining that you have to go from the balcony to go from the living room to the rooms. The owner is Italian.

“With a great view of the mountains.”
The room or rooms ( there was one room divided into two parts, one was a kitchen and dining room) were really spacious, the bed was comfortable, I had hot water, and a view from the balcony overlooking part of Tarrafal and the mountains. The place was quiet, so I could relax and chill out. At night, I could observe local nightlife here; it was nice and so different from what I have at home. Plus, I saw many cats running and fighting, which, as a cat lover, I didn't mind. If I come here again, I will definitely stay in Zena Star.

“Well equipped spacy apartment with a very nice and helpful host, just a few steps to the beach, or minibus stop.”
A spacy apartment with a terrace, a view, in a well and individually designed house:) Felt like a home right away.

The apart hotel was well positioned related to the small village of Tarrafal but not so much things to do in the surrending.

“It was OK, but we wouldn't go back.”
It's in a good location. Close to the centre of town. Good balcony with a view of the sea and plenty of people watching opportunities. I felt that we got to know what the town is like and how people live.
