Not quite all mod-cons (our room was comfortable but dated), but there are several benefits versus other hotels in the area: the location is close to town but still peaceful versus a long walk down the promenade from the bigger, busier resort hotels; the lovely original builidng, grounds and trees (bringing the birds that come to join you for breakfast, so guard your plate!); the fantastic food at the beach club and pool restaurant, with a choice of grilled fish each mealtime (breakfast buffet good too); and the perfect place for pre-dinner or late drinks at La Tortue bar.
We came for a week of unwinding on the beach and Hotel Morabeza helped us relax to the max.
PS: I've seen some comments on service and I guess it's about what you're expecting - this is friendly and relaxed rather than the polished hospitality you'll no doubt find at the Hilton. But the staff that served us were all happy and helpful.
Tip: When the sun starts to cool, head to Ola Brazil fifty metres down the beach towards the pier. It's everything a chilled-out beach bar should be.
I finally changed rooms at 1pm (so half the morning wasted) only after I came to chase, they didnt even alert me from my corridor spot where i was working.
When i finally got to check out and saw my bill, I said your missing my laundry bill (silly me for being honest!), I flagged it, they couldnt find it. They finally located it, i paid (oh so I thought). It is 10pm now, and on the way to the airport, 20 minutes into the journey, in the dark, a solo female traveller in the desert. The driver stops and is talking on the phone, I'm obviously nervous and now he says he has to turn back?! they take me back, the hotel reception says he made a mistake with my bill and i need to settle 14euro. You bring me back from my journey for 14euro, for laundry that you didnt even realise I owed in the first place, surely this could have been an email, a goodwill gesture for no internet for 12+hours ( I had already paid 55 euro mind you for the one small bag of laundry!).
This hotel is a mess. I'm so sad I couldn't stay at the Hilton, and this ruined my last night in Cape Verde.
Pessoal impecável, educado, solícito e prestável. Limpeza impecável.
Pequeno almoço de boa qualidade e com variedade. Almoço somente no restaurante da praia.
Localização muito boa frente à praia e perto da vila de Santa Maria.
Para mim uma das melhores opções para visitar o Sal.
