Pachamama Eco Park - Viveiro Botanical Garden Yakınındaki Santa Maria Otelleri

All I can say is AMAZING! First time to Cape Verde and this hotel and will definitely return. Staff are so friendly and helpful, rooms are immaculate, as is the whole resort. I felt so well looked after by all the staff and nothing was a problem. The beach is stunning! Had a fantastic private day tour with Imanuep from the beach and explored the island, paddling with sharks, blue eye, salt lake! The staff here deserve a huge amount of credit as they make the experience feel luxurious and enjoyable! They work so hard and always with a smile! Well done to all!

Great service from taking our cases from our transport to returning to our transport on our departure. Nice rooms refurbished to a high standard. Great buffet restaurant with wide variety of food and most freshly cooked in front of you. All staff were friendly and helpful. Only fault was no shower cap and the coffee/creamer in the room was not topped up. The mini fridge was though and there were optics with spirits. One of us has mobility issues and uses a walking stick and got about as normal. We were well looked after. Just the odd guest decided to ignore the signs reserving tables for the disabled. The hotel appeared to be wheelchair friendly though we didn't use. We plan to return.

Just got back and had a lovely time at this hotel. We checked in on the rui app however didn't notice much difference at check in because of this. Rooms are a good size and bigger than others I have stayed in at cape verde. The hotel shares the water slide park and kids pools and some of the spa services and also the toilet off the beach and that's about it with Rui Palace hotel. However Rui Palace being and adult only they get to come over to our side for the nights entertainment etc. As we were a couple the pool could get quite busy so next time I would stay at the Palace as the hotels are mirrors of each other. The walk to Santa Maria Town is really close if you go the short way which is via the water park. Don't walk along the beach as it will take you forever over hot sand. On way to beach usual local tour sellers who calm down after the initial pitch and seeing our pale faces but does get a bit boring hello hello hello where you from.Always found the food in cape verde plentiful but lacking great taste. Where as in Tunisia the food just blew my mind even the cakes. You will be fine and water is always topped up in the rooms. The mosquitos love me so you have to be sensible and spray yourselves with deet spray all over and never have door wide open at night and stay wrapped in the bed. Not many around but only takes a couple of them. Saw some real sights with people are bitten round the bottom if the legs however I only got 3 bites in 11 days just being sensible. Yes the hotel shows some wear and tear but the showers are great and powerful no issues with the shower gels nice quality. The balcony have no lights at night so unless you take a torch or use the light from the room it's pitch black. No issue with staff or anyone all doing their best so try and tip them if and when you can. Go easy on them. Drinks were fine and the beer is nice. Yes it's poor and looks like people work but the tour boats and jet skys etc are owned by others and the locals work for these company's. Local currency however they accept euros and as a tourist you will come across most things costing the same if not more than if you were in Europe. No way a local would pay 14 euros for a meal in town excluding drinks but you won't tend to see the local priced options unless you search it out. You will see the guy with the monkey where you can get a picture with the monkey. I have mixed feelings however what do I know about this both benefit from each other and I'm sure the owner looks after his asset.Good mix of nationalitys weather was great. Any horror stories are just that. Never had any trouble only once was I offered a tour from a local in town however nothing is free I found so if anyone wants to show you round or take you here or their when you never asked then don't go or expect to pay for it. Taxis yep never bothered with them but no issues people using them all the time. Def go on the adult only catermaran tour through tui. Don't do the local offering just the

The official rating of this hotel is 4 stars, and with a bit of cosmetic upgrading and better staffing in the kitchen, I could see it reaching that level (it seems like it may have once been a real 4 star). As it was, the room quality itself was more 3 star, and the outside area was 4 stars. We had a 'deluxe sea view' with no terrace. There was lots of rough paintwork and lack of maintenance on the small details in the rooms, but overall it was fine, with a huge comfy bed and a nice shower and a lovely view out the window. Unfortunately the entry was at the street side of the hotel which was our smoking area, and that view was just the dirt road and some houses. Overall we would stay here again as the room was fine, the staff were great, the pool area was amazing, nobody had any screaming kids (very quiet and peaceful, great for couples) and while the beach required stepping over rocks, it also had the best snorkeling area with the most fish. Another sandy beach with less fish and two beach bars is a 3 minute walk away, and the main ***** with the main beach is a 10 minute walk (that one is useless for snorkeling but great for swimming). Besides snorkeling, it's also a preferred spot for wind surfing. We happened to try the hotel restaurant on a really bad night apparently, we waited an hour for our seafood paella which was average quality but double the price of the ***** restaurants. However, according to the other patrons who did all inclusive, the service was usually much faster. and the food usually much better. We did also have burgers for lunch one day, and those were expensive but very nice. Breakfast was included in our stay and it had an extensive and delicious continental selection, plus hot eggs and bacon on order, always very fast. The staff were super attentive and completely on their game, absolutely fantastic service. We got a great deal on a package holiday with LoveHolidays, so for the price we were very happy and would definitely stay again.

I had a few initial issues with the electricals in the room which the manager Miguel sorted quickly, lovely guy. The staff were very friendly and the free shuttle bus into Santa Maria meant could enjoy a nice sandy beach. Quiet location with restaurant and bar and nearby mini market.

The best hotel in the whole island of Sal, except for Riu, is Hilton. Unfortunately, there is no Riu at the time of booking, but Hilton is very new, the decoration is very beautiful, and the facilities in the room are very modern. The hotel swimming pool is very large, the beach is outside, the greening is very good, the photo is beautiful, but the room is a little far from the beach, only half of the sea view room.
