Spor Salonu İçeren Praia, Yeşil Burun Adaları Otelleri

"Of the four hotels I stayed at during my time in Cape Verde, this is the closest to offering a 4-star experience, and providing everything advertised on this platform. The staff is courteous, friendly, and always on hand to offer a relaxing experience. Due to the convex shape of the structure, the rooms come in a variety of configurations, offering some variety even with repeat stays like mine. The breakfast buffet is pretty decent, with a good offering of options from cold to warm, sweet to savory. Every window offers a breathtaking view of the Atlantic and the rest of the island, and its well-maintained outdoor pool offers a welcome tease if you don't feel ready to brave the beach just yet. That said, there are a few limitations: while the varying layouts offer good variety for multiple stays, you may find yourself feeling shortchanged if you pay the same amount for a smaller room than the traveler a couple doors down. Also, the massage treatment I wanted wasn't available as the specialized therapist was only onsite certain days of the week. Luxury or not, Barcelo wasn't immune to the nationwide fly problem, meaning the luxury escape of a breakfast on their stunning restaurant terrace could easily get interrupted by the buzzing of insects trying to share your meal. The gym, though the best-equipped of the four hotels I stayed at in CV, is a bit under-equipped for a property with four-star aspirations. Also, it criminally underuses the property's prime location by shoving the gym into a small, windowless box. All in all, a relaxing stay. Would absolutely recommend and rebook."

"Great location. Next door is a shopping center with supermarket, great gym (Andro is an eye candy) but my favorite spot was at Hair Addict Spa with the owner and her crew. She hooked me up with braids, micro shading brows and pedicure. This was a stopover to Fogo. Beach is close by and pool on 7th floor..great view. Staff very nice and friendly. Breakfast was nice as well. Approx. 15?min from airport."

"While generally clean, this hotel is far less inviting than the photos will have you believe. In person, it offers a glimpse of what it once was. My room, while decently spacious, was a sparse, unwelcoming box with an aesthetic more reminiscent of a guesthouse than a 3-star hotel. Due to a nationwide cancellation of domestic flights, I only got to spend one night at the hotel, the whole of which I spent in the heat because their attempts to adjust the air-conditioning proved fruitless. (Also, despite the force-majeure nature of the flight cancellations, the hotel refused to offer even a partial refund when contacted about adjusting the booking.) The photos of the empty pool and surrounding bar/restaurant areas are accurate only in the complete desolation of the scene. During my visit, the pool area was entirely unstaffed -- devoid of life guards, attendants, bartenders (or any markers of a functioning bar), or any other factors indicating a functioning pool. The makeshift gym (I've seen better-appointed fitness centers in friends' garages) felt even more unsafe to use, especially alone. The front desk has its issues as well -- I had to wait 45 minutes while they changed the twin beds in my room to the single King/Queen requested in the booking. And upon my late-night checkout, the very junior staffer asleep at the desk was so slow and incompetent (with both my checkout and taxi request) that I almost missed the check-in window when I eventually arrived at the airport (a short 5-minute drive from the hotel). In the end, my flight was canceled and I needed somewhere to stay for the 1-2 nights I'd be stuck on the island. It went without saying that I never returned to this hotel."
