"I stayed here for 2 nights while waiting for my next flight to go to another island. I'm glad I found the discounted rate via trip.com because I would have been upset at paying full price for this hotel. The pictures are out of date. The room was small but clean. The shower head was loose and wouldn't stay up properly. The rooftop was outdated. The pool was small and hadn't been cleaned in a while. Dirt and debris were visible in the pool.
Breakfast was okay. A decent selection of food items. Staff wasn't super friendly. Decent stay for the discounted rate but not worth $100/night."
"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."
"The hotel is small, the room is small, the pool is small, but the dinner at the restaurant is not bad, 11 euros, the corridor is too dark, the hall can be exchanged, the overall service is very good, as the first night of the transit hotel is still ok, next to You can have a calling card in the mall, and the airport can do it."
"The people in the room upstairs were running around. The people in the next room were noisy. The room itself was great but noise insulation should be better. There were no elevators or ramps to get heavy bags up and down. Breakfast was great. All around the food was great. Local grilled fish for lunch was fantastic. Hotel staff were pretty good though sometimes did not give their full attention. The pool area was a feature. Very handy location."
"El alojamiento en general está bastante bien, el personal muy amable y dispuestos a ayudarte siempre. El único inconveniente fue, que a nuestra salida del alojamiento, no había ninguna persona en recepción y la puerta estaba cerrada con llave. El transfer que pedimos tuvo que buscar en el exterior una llave escondida para abrirnos y que llegásemos al aeropuerto a tiempo."
"Maybe I have never lived in a foreign hotel, which is a bit rare.
The room does not have disposable items, such as toothbrushes, combs, small toothpaste, slippers, and a small piece of soap and body soap. There are floor towels, bath towels, towels, and hair dryers. The overall area of the room type is OK, but there is a lot of invalid space. There are rocking chairs and two sofas, no balcony, floor-to-ceiling windows are large but the window is a building and there is no view. The room is also equipped with a safe and minibar. Remind friends that the power socket is European standard, so prepare the conversion head in advance or find the hotel. It is recommended to bring your own, domestic brand, bull, convenient and easy to use. The product is as follows. For example, the vacation or stay for a long time, it is recommended to prepare a plug-in board for your own use. The front desk brother is very good, can use English to do simple communication with you, help me solve many problems. Everyone must be mentally prepared, the locals are Portuguese, and some service industry personnel can speak English."
