My husband and I stayed at the Crioula Hotel in Santa Maria on the island of Sal in Cape Verde. We stayed fully inclusive, and it was our first visit to the island. The hotel was having a little repair work, but nothing that intruded on our stay. There was no noise or disruption. The pool had recently been refurbished... more

Like somebody else has written before me, I had a terrible experience. I am Italian so at least I found some good company (the 95% of the guests are from Italy) but the rest was just a nightmare. There was a poor range of food at the buffet, dishes and glasses were often dirty, the staff was unorganized and not... more

Not exactly 5 stars and not exactly all inclusive. Clean and good food. Beach is amazing and beautiful, water is just fresh enough. Buffet is repetitive after some days. As there is not much to do within the resort and on the island, I can say that it was a very relaxing vacation... I do not regret going but I... more

We stayed (myself, my wife, my 1 year old child) in Crioula between December 28th , 2007 and January 4th, 2008. We weren't lucky with the weather, having 'dry clouds' (saharian sand clouds at high quote covering the sky the whole day) for 6 days out of seven. Said that, there was not much left to do in Capo Verde... more

We ate here 2 evenings as we were staying over the road at the Dunas and the cost was 30euros including wine and beer. The hotel is full of Italians and they were well catered for with 4 different types of pasta and pizza (for the kids). The salads were very good and fish and meat choices outstanding for Cape... more

Its ok, but its flagged as a 5 star hotel and if this is a 5 star hotel, then Burger King is a Michelin- starred restaurant!!!!! It's the first 5star hotel I've known that does not do room service or alarm call and has no porters to help with baggage and no DoNotDisturb sign for the door (so the maids... more
