CaGIOgio’ 2A newly built apartment
We had a very nice time on Sal. The apartment is quiet, you can walk super quickly towards the pier and all the restaurants and bars. Antonio lent us 2 bikes, organized us the taxi from and to the airport and was also available at any other time. Thanks for the time ☺️

Top floor property with a sunny balcony
Patricia’s place is situated in a lovely peaceful resort which was perfect for the restful holiday I wanted 🧘🏾♀️. There’s a free shuttle that can get you to the main town and beach in about 5 minutes. I enjoyed taking the 25 minute walk there and back each day. Patricia has thought of everything you’ll need ⭐. I’m vegan, so the well equipped kitchen was wonderful. Papaya cafe in the town is a plant based treasure. On the resort there’s a shop opposite the apartment which was great. There’s a yoga mat and plenty of other home from home bits dotted around. Patricia is very kind, attentive, and I sense ethical. I recommend staying, you won’t regret it ☀️🌴

Modern Bright Apartment - Sleeps up to 6 guests
Large quiet apartment in residence with access to two pools, one quiet at the foot of the apartment and another with bar and restaurant and other tourists. 2 bathrooms, 2 large bedrooms and all the comforts needed to have a good holiday. The complex has a supermarket, bike and scooter rental shop. Bikini beach is 10 minutes walk. Santa Maria is 20/25 min by walk. We rented bikes to get there, there are also free shuttles but not every hour, or the taxi. Selena was good advice before we arrived and the on-site agent Lizy was very happy for us. We were a family of 4 and will be back at Selena and Gaynor's with pleasure!!

Casa Tunuca
I had such a great time at Irati’s apartment. It was beautifully decorated, in the most perfect location. Well equipped, and had a warm and welcoming feel. I loved my stay there, and will more than definitely come back. Thank you so very much for hosting me!

Porto Antigo II, 2 Bedroom Spacious Apartment
Gorgeous apartment right in the heart of Santa Maria, close by to everything but still very calm and peaceful. The price is amazing given the fact it has a pool and all of the amenities inside. The complex also has friendly security guards so makes you feel that little more safe if you are solo travelling. Charles was a great host and was easy to contact at any point during my trip, made me fall in love with Sal even more having somewhere to rest and recuperate after busy days 😊

An impressive apartment 100 meters from the beach
The apartment is simple but comfortable. Great location, very close to the beach and a 5-minute walk to the pedestrian street. The swimming pool is an added value for the windiest days, as the fact of being in the middle of the condominium houses it of the wind. Nothing negative to point out.

One bedroom Oleandro
Alba helped us at all times and gave us great recommendations, she was a great host. The apartment comes with everything you need for a short stay. The neighborhood is very quiet and is very close to the beach, restaurants, and areas of interest... Very recommended!!

Holiday Properties Moradias Green
Alba is very nice, available and attentive. The residence is peaceful , close to the beach and restaurants. Go there without hesitation!!

Great AP on Sal Island, Old Port III
The village had already been in Santa Maria and this experience managed to be better. The house is the same as the pictures but I wasn't worried about this point because I wanted to enjoy the city more. The location is one of the best, in front of the beach and three minutes from the center. Super safe place, I always walked at dawn and even alone and never felt unsafe. At the same time, it is a safe place and a family environment. I loved it all and advised! I'll be back soon!

Santana single bedroom serviced apartment
We had an excellent stay, really attention and responsive host, Katiana was most helpful with taxa from airport, which we really appreciated. Apartment was as described. Easy and sufficient. :)

Cozy 1-Bedroom Apartment Budget-Friendly Getaway
The apartment is just as expected and identical to the pictures and description. The location is one of the best in Santa Maria. The host is very reactive and even allowed an early check in as the previous guest left earlier. Thank you for the stay !

Holiday Properties Leme Bedje
It was a great time in Sal! Alba's apartment offers everything a traveler needs, and you also live across the street from the beautiful beach of Santa Maria. I stayed there for 8 nights and would like to extend my trip. Center is as close as 10 minutes walk, but also close to shops are around the corner. There is also a great ice cream shop around the corner where you can get delicious ice cream as well as breakfast. Alba is a nice and reputable hostess, she organized a last minute tour of the island of Sal for me! Would love to come back. 5 stars Recommended! Thank you dear Alba for this great experience in Cape Verde! All the best!

40m Large Studio with Balcony 190€ week/550€ month
Roberto was a great host, his place is situated at 5 minutes walk from the beach. A simple, functional & stylish place it has the benefit of a private balcony that offers a lovely breeze. It is exceptionally reasonable if you are looking for an authentic experience. Thanks to Lily & Amadou who were super helpful.

Cantinho do Amor & da Paz
Lorena is a fabulous host and provided a transfer for us from the airport. She is quick to respond to messages and the apartment was bigger than expected with all necessary facilities. Superb location very close the beach and a few small supermarkets and restaurants within a minutes walk. Also, just an easy ten minutes walk too to the centre of Santa Maria. Totally recommend

Spacious bright 2 bedroom apartment 40 beach front
We enjoyed staying in Lorraine's apartment, being in the city and by the sea made it very easy for us to walk around day and night, enjoying the city vibes and at times sitting by the beach. it was nice finding drinking water, coffee, tea, sugar in the house. We were warmly welcomed by the manager, Stefan who took us round to see various restaurants and showed us where we could shop. He also helped us organize a tour to the island which was great. I would recommend Lorraine's house for your stay in Santa Maria.

Lovely first floor apartment
We just spent a week in this place. Everything was very good. Nice residence, quiet, beautiful pool. Very good location to walk to the beach or village of Santa Maria. Roger provided us with a lot of explanations before we arrived. Recommended place to stay.

Lovely 3 bed apartment with pool
The apartment was perfect for our family of 2 adults and 4 children. It was nice with 2 bathrooms and a washing machine. It takes 5 minutes to walk to the beach and 10 minutes to the city. There are a few small supermarkets nearby where you can buy the essentials. Vikki is a great host and quick to respond to TEXT. She can also help with the transfer from the airport upon arrival. We'll definitely be back.

Spacious Studio Porto Antigo 2, Steps to Pool,Wifi
The listing looks exactly as described. Everything works without any issues. However, the biggest advantage of the accommodation is the host himself. He showed us everything worth knowing in person and gave many great tips. He was super quick and friendly to respond to questions. We felt super taken care of and had a really great stay. Thank you!

Paraiso Tropical wifi & pool. Djadsal villas
Good location and great conditions. Hosts were very helpful on arrival and in solving minor issues during their stay. The house is a perfect option for those who want to escape the resorts and enjoy the island more locally.

Sea view penthouse in Porto Antigo 2, pool, Wi-Fi
I had a great stay at this apartment. The location was excellent, with easy access to the beach and local amenities. The apartment itself was clean, had a beautiful sea view, and access to its own pool with plenty of available chairs. The building felt safe and secure, and the host was very responsive and proactive throughout the stay. Highly recommend!
