Ponta do Sol Town Hall Tours

The room it self was clean and the staff were really friendly and kind. The only problem we had during our stay was the bathroom. The sewage smell was coming up the drain. The shower tray was porous. The shower head did not have a holder so awkward to shower. The view from the bedroom was really nice, close to the airport. It can get very hot in the room during the day time. There is no WiFi in the bedroom and the WiFi in the lounge is weak.

The view from Belvedere is breathtaking, but the property is extremely far from the harbour and involves a long, tiring trek with countless stairs. The room, although described as a suite, is very basic and more in line with a 3-star standard at best. The staff did try to help, but their capacity was limited. The receptionist was unable to assist with luggage despite the many stairs; fortunately, our driver helped us. She also recommended a restaurant on arrival which turned out to be dreadful — essentially fast food for locals. It was dirty, unhealthy, and completely unsuitable. The swimming pool is tiny, though at least it allowed for some sunbathing. Breakfast was mediocre and ends at 11am. There is no food or drink service available during the day, which is unacceptable and reflects a general lack of service. The hotel feels more suited to backpackers and budget travellers — certainly not our taste and absolutely not luxury. Toiletries were minimal, towels and pillows had to be requested upon arrival (thankfully I had my own toiletries), and the bed was uncomfortable — the mattress triggered my sciatica. The reception itself is tiny, almost like a mouse hole, and unwelcoming. In short, aside from the spectacular views, I would not stay here again. This hotel is not for me or my husband.

A great location in Mindelo & the pool was amazing. The restaurant also had great food (lunch & dinner). The continental breakfast was just OK, but it was served in an enclosed area that was too hot without opened windows & flies :/ Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
