Lovely little stay by the sea

I had a really lovely stay here for 4 nights on a solo trip. Gorgeous location, really handy free shuttle into Santa Maria a couple of times a day and easy to book a (paid) transfer to and from the airport. Food is off a menu for breakfast and dinner (I opted for half board) good quality and large portions. Everyone I encountered was friendly and helpful.

Perfect for a stopover

My girlfriend and I stayed at Murdeira for 1 nights stay as a stopover from the UK to our final destination of Sao Vicente. The hotel, a short taxi from the airport, was perfect to relax by the pool (or beach) for the afternoon with a drink from the poolside bar and then an evening meal before our flight the next morning. The room was spacious and clean equipped with air con so made for a good nights sleep. All in all, perfect for what we needed.

Canceled my reservation 4 days before my stay

I booked a room here for 4 nights over the Christmas holidays back in September. It was reserved and paid for months in advance. They canceled my room four days before my trip. Thank goodness I booked through a 3rd party and they were able to help me find a place to stay last minute when everything was full.

Room, staff breakfast very good. Had nice trip to Santa Maria they provide for free. Pool fine but used less than expected as not up to it. Snorkelled in small bay up from reception. Good first 2 days last day churned up so visibility issues. Very nice walks N & S of resort on or near beach which I could not exploit as much as wished. Nice meals in afternoon N of reception.

Take with a pinch of salt

Accommodation is very dated. Website photos do not reflect the hotel. Many of the properties on the resort are old and dilapidated. Wifi in room was the worst I have experienced in the last 10 years and we was lied to about this. For example you will have Wi-Fi on the sofa but less than three metres away you can’t use Wi-Fi in the bed to make a phone call. It was that bad. It was explained as a blackout across Cape Verde however good internet in bar area and other parts of Sal. Friendly and helpful staff especially Duke and the restaurant and bar staff. Free shuttle to Santa Maria twice a day was useful.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was BEYOND friendly, but my main grievance is that I had paid extra and arranged for an airport transfer both days before I arrived in CV and before I left CV and they did not comply with either. I paid 45EUR for 2 taxis, both a 7-minute drive from the airport. If I pay for a service, I wish it was available. Also, the wifi on the resort did not work at all the entirety of my stay; and being that the resort is away from the main city/area, it made it very desolate as my phone and none of my other devices had service due to faulty wifi from the resort. Otherwise, the food and drinks were amazing and very fairly priced, and the rooms themselves were nice. The amenities were very nice as well.

La chambre est quelconque, à notre arrivée : pas de serviette, pas de savon de douche. Le coffre ne fonctionne pas, ce qui oblige de se balader avec passeport et argent. Et le ballon d’eau chaude ne permet pas de couvrir l’ensemble des chambres. Mais c’est surtout l’absence de service qui pose un problème. Aucune réponse à un problème ( pour nous c’est le transfert inter île). Ils vous laisse vous débrouiller. Les gens de l’accueil sont juste bon pour réserver un taxi. Pas plus

Helt okej

Mindre hotell med lugnt läge. Låg dock längre från Santa Maria och ”allt annat” än jag räknat med, fanns endast en till restaurang ca 1 km bort. Många aktiviteter erbjöd inte upphämtning från Murdeira vilket innebar taxikostnader om tiden för aktiviteten inte stämde med transferbuss-servicen som hotellet erbjöd. Frukosten var sådär, ganska litet utbud. Perfekt ställe om man endast vill ta det lugnt på semestern. Nära stranden, men hotellet hade inga strandstolar. Ett helt ok hotell, fräscht och rent och ligger vackert beläget med fina solnedgångar.

Inte världsklass men ok för pengarna

Helt ok boende om man vill bo lugnt utanför Santa Maria. Servicen var ok men inget att skryta med. Toan på rummet läckte vatten, dom försökte fixa men de gick sådär. Rent i övrigt. Poolen var iskall ej uppvärmd, vi var där över jul & nyår. Kan rekommendera endast beroende av priser, gratis shuttle till stan men taxi kostade 15 euro ca.
