Hotel LIVVO Budha Beach

Nos ha gustado mucho el hotel, lejos del barullo de los grandes complejos turísticos y a la vez a 10 minutos andando del centro de Santa María, zona tranquila, segura y bien iluminada. Totalmente recomendable.

Sin duda la mejor parte del hotel es su piscina con vista al mar, con tumbonas y camas balinesas. Es un hotel perfecto para relajarse, ya que es pequeñito por lo que no hay mucha gente. Está a unos 15 min del centro del pueblo andando, pero en mi opinión es una ventaja ya que apenas llega gente caminando hasta el trozo de playa del hotel, de forma que parece una playa privada, muy bonita además por ser todo el suelo de conchas). El personal fue muy agradable con nosotros en todo momento. Desayunos muy ricos y variados. Habitaciones súper amplias y cómodas, repetiríamos sin duda.

What a beautiful hotel that is constantly maintained by the lovely, helpful staff. Room amazing with sea view (guys there are four different types of rooms/sizes/prices so best to look at their website first) Out room was always clean & bed was so so comfy! A beautiful quiet place to relax & enjoy Cape Verde. Breakfast has a very good variety and plenty of it. Only things I’d say is a bigger bin in the room is needed as the one tiny one in the bathroom is definitely not sufficient and maybe a full length mirror, but these aren’t drastic matters…was a truly lovely stay, thank you!

We stayed here for 10 nights in March. Paid extra to stay in a sea view room with balcony/terrace. We were disappointed with our small square window sea view. Other rooms had balconies or terrace with large double glass sliding doors. We did ask for a balcony room but would have to pay an additional €280. Whilst there our JBL Bluetooth speaker went missing from our hand luggage. We didn't use it on the holiday, it stayed in the luggage in a hard protective case, so we only noticed once we got home. I emailed the hotel with photographs, who then looked into it, but they couldn't say what had happened. The only people in our room when we were not there were the cleaners and maintenance men who came to fix the broken a/c unit on day 3 of our holiday. There is no cctv in the room obviously, so no one can say who took the Bluetooth speaker out of its protective case which was in our hand luggage. We would have put it inside the safe, but the safe is tiny and had our money, passports and headphones in. We always put valuables in the safe on holiday for this exact reason but the small speaker would not fit in. This did taint what was actually a lovely holiday. The staff there are great, very friendly and welcoming, especially the breakfast staff. The buffet selection is fantastic, loads to choose from and freshly cooked daily. We also ate in the restaurant for an evening meal which we paid for and that was very good also. There are always sun loungers and sofa beds available for relaxing and the cold swimming pool is nice for a dip. 1 male Security guard walks around the perimeter day and night which is reassuring. The orange dirt path leading from the hotel takes you to a cobbled street full of resteraunts and bars. I would not recommend walking it alone at night as there is grass wasteland next to it in darkness. We were ok as a couple but we did hurry through it and kept an eye out. Overall, we had a lovely holiday, shame about the dark room we had with a "sea view" and of course the missing JBL Bluetooth speaker. For this I can only give 3 stars.

Thank you for a fabulous stay for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. The staff were all very friendly and couldnt do enough for us. It was so relaxing around the pool area, our room was spacious, clean and the bed was very comfortable. The location was perfect for us and we can't wait to return.

Small hotel but comes with a great personal touch . We were bed and breakfast and food cooked to order and always piping hot . If looking for peace and quiet this was just perfect . Felt very safe as we were sisters walking into the town down a dirt road to the numerous bars and restaurants . Would definitely come back
