Hotel Santantao Art Resort

Not worth the money. Wifi isnt available except very weakly in reception. The service isnt good and English isnt spoken. Food was bland and choices are limited. The day we were to check out we came down to breakfast and were told no breakfast (except a yoghurt and fruit) because we don't have any guests!!!!! Several times at breakfast things were finished and we were told several times sorry bread finished , sorry bananas finished. Theres nobody to complain to either so trying to make things better wasn't an option. Rooms-go back to the 60/70s and you’re at this hotel. Paid for a superior room and it wasn't worth it. Badly planned, dark and uncomfortable. The balcony small and the aircon is out there so you cant sit there its like a sitting in a sauna with airplanes flying over at low height. There is a wall so to see ( a small glimpse) of the sea you have to stand. Go somewhere else is my tip. Not hotels problem but just tio add on-We were tricked out if hiring a car-confirmed and then didn't show up Porto Novo us little and theres nothing to do its high season and two restaurants are open

Booked a superior room really not worth it. Poor furnishings very basic. Regretted booking. Would not go back again. Area is quite Barron and does not feel particularly safe in the evenings. Day trip on a boat would be fine. Not worth staying

The hotel says it as free internet, but that is only in reception. No wifi in bedrooms. I spent a week on this island (in winter/dry season) and got bitten by mosquitos in only one place - reception of this hotel. And I was only sitting in reception because there is no wifi in the bedrooms. They really REALLY need to change this. (And before you reply that this is Africa, and so I shouldn't expect European standards, I paid over 65 euros a night, which is more than some hotels in the UK...). On the positive side, we were traveling with a baby and needed various cups washed and sterilised, and the restaurant staff were very helpful and friendly. Air conditioning in rooms only has one temperature (21 degrees) and one noise level (quite loud).

bel hôtel situé sur la plage de Porto Novo, les chambres avec balcon sont spacieuses et confortables, belle salle de bain l'hôtel possède une belle piscine entourée de moquette et un bar agréable. le restaurant est bon mais il est difficile de trouver un verre de vin correct, le personnel est très sympathique. Il est difficile de se baigner dans le mer à cause des vagues et des galets mais on peut faire une belle balade sur la plage

Oui, dommage car ce bel établissement mériterait d'avoir un peu plus ...de vie!... L'équipe y est agréable et serviable, mais on ne trouve pas ce petit supplément d'âme qui fait le charme des iles, et c'est dommage!... les chambres sont tout à fait convenables et propres, mais vieillottes, et l'établissement dans son ensemble est assez sombre... Par contre, très belle terrasse extérieure, et piscine super sympa, on apprécie! L'ascenseur était en panne, cela semble être une pratique assez courant au Cap Vert, mais bon... La restauration est assez sommaire, et le buffet des petits déjeuners assez réduit, avec cependant des produits de qualité. Le centre de plongée, attenant à la piscine, apporte un supplément de vie, qu'on recherche!...

L’hotel era abbastanza vecchio, necessiterebbe un rimodernamento, come anche le camere e le sale comuni in generale. La colazione non è ricchissima, però ciò che c’era era buono. La stessa cosa vale per le cene in hotel. Attenzione: l’hotel non è in centro quindi ci siamo fermati sempre a cena in hotel e il Wi-Fi non va per niente bene, nelle camere la connessione è inesistente e nelle sale comuni è troppo sovraccaricato e non va. L’ascensore non andava, per me non è un problema, ma è inammissibile che non ci sia l’ascensore funzionante. Per quanto riguarda lo staff, alcuni gentilissimi, sorridenti e professionali, altri sembravano improvvisati. La piscina è un plus dopo una bella escursione ma necessiterebbe manutenzione.
