8.8/10 Excellent! (163 reviews)

Our stay at Hotel Perola was overall great. Our first day in our assigned room we noticed the bathroom had a leak from the toilet, we told the front desk staff and they were more than happy to help. They sent a technician to check it out. In the end, they ended up upgrading us to a suite and we were very grateful. Overall cleaninless was decent, however the curtains in the room were a bit dirty and either require a good deep clean or new curtains altogether. The staff, especially Josiene the receptionist, was absolutely lovely, breakfast was tasty, as well as dinner options, and the views were great!

8/10 Very Good! (15 reviews)

This was my first visit to Cape Verde and I will definitely stay here again on any future visits. The entire property was very neat and clean and reasonably priced. Loved the unique decor. From the front desk to the bartender…Every single member of the staff was super friendly and helpful, even with problems I had trying to move around the country away from the hotel. They definitely went above and beyond. I absolutely recommend!
