Clean, modern, great location nearby the beach with easy parking and next to an awesome gym and the promenade with options to do CrossFit. For me, the best food on the island due to vegan and healthy, microbiotic food and lovely staff. The food is pricier than elsewhere, but worth it.

    I had a great stay at this hotel in Praia! Everything was perfect from start to finish. The staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making us feel truly welcome. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The breathtaking ocean view If you’re looking for a great place to stay in Praia with top-notch service and stunning views, this is the one. Highly recommended!

    Island Santiago is definitelly worth visiting. We spent few days in Sal but Santiago is so much different and authentic. Casa Strela is wonderful place to stay, it has a great vibe. Perfect and friendly staff will even make it more genuine for you. I would like to mention the delicious food, great choice of fish dishes and super cocktails dobe by Ariana and Jonathan. Will be defo back.

    It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman.

    It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman. Do NOT go out alone or at night. My housemate and I went to a beach that was 6-7 walking minutes away. It was absolutely lovely. We went at 6pm and left at 8pm. It was dark. Unfortunately 2 masked children (of about 12) tried to "jump" us with knives. I've been traveling for 30 years and robbed 7 times before (including this; that averages out to 1/4 years and I AM VERY WHITE, with blue eyes, blond hair and stand out in certain places, so I may be an "easy target". Still, I've never had knives drawn on me. So PLEASE be careful, especially if you are women. BE SMART. I wasn't. Thankfully all I walked away with was some PTSD and bad memories, but they had masks & REAL KNIVES and it could have been VERY BAD.

    Tarrafal by itself is nice to visit for a few days.

    Tarrafal by itself is nice to visit for a few days. Beach, good restaurants, you can do hikes on Monte Graciosa, and Tras os Montes. Restaurant 'chez mama' has some hiking maps. And good food too. I spent most of my time fishing. From the rocks at Punta Atum, of from a boat. One thing to keep in mind. Tarrafal in August is hot. You can go up to Serra Malagueta where it is cooler. But rainy in August.

    Nice beach, clean but poor surroundings.

    Nice beach, clean but poor surroundings. The proximity with the airport (35 min.) makes it a potential nice destination. The city should promote more actively the destination in order to attract developers which could renew the houses we can see from the beach and which are falling apart. Hopefully in the future this can be done and attract more visitors and have additional hotels. The potential exists.

    Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere...

    Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere found on the other Cape Verde islands. The local population generally doesn’t speak English and often seems offended if you don’t speak to them in Portuguese. Tourists are frequently stared at, which can make you feel a bit out of place, and the overall impression is that visitors aren’t always welcome. We had a bad experience in Praínha, where persistent children came up asking for money, while older men seemed to be eyeing our bags left on the towels. We ended up having to leave immediately by taxi. Outside of the Plateau—the only area recommended for tourists and heavily patrolled by military and police—you don’t really feel safe.

    Very cosy little town with nice beach and friendly local people. You can eat very affordable in local bars/restaurants or choose European food in couple of restaurants. The center is quite small, so you walk around easy. Beach is nice and not too much people.
