The place is very clean and well-maintained, the beds are comfortable, and the mosquito nets are a big plus. I felt safe throughout my entire stay, and the location is convenient. It’s an ideal place for a short trip and relaxation. The price is appropriate for the standard offered Javier is extremely kind, welcoming, and always willing to help, which makes the stay even more enjoyable. I also highly recommend the delicious homemade breakfasts—fresh and prepared with great care.

“Lovely place to stay”
Really clean and comfortable place to stay. Lovely plant filled courtyard. Really helpful host - helped me with getting a ferry ticket. On the edge of town (but just a few minutes walk into town) so lovely and quiet.

“The best Guesthouse in Cabo Verde!”
It's the best Guesthouse in Cabo Verde (I have visited 6 islands here). One of the best I've ever been to all around the world. Very nice, professional and helpful owner. I love this place! It's the jackpot!

The place is very clean and beautiful, just a 5-10 min walk away from the town center and beach. The host, Javier, is friendly and caring. He also got bikes to rent for exploring the island. I would definately come again!
