My title is the only way i could describe this hotel. The design is superb, as a retired construction manager i can assure you that this was an archictecs dream and a builders nightmare. There are 898 bedrooms and in peak season accomodates 2000, people. The hotel was completed in May 2011 and is still as prestine as the day... More

Never been to Cape Verde before and was glad that I chose this property. Was very similar to a Theme Park but seeing that there is very little to see on the Island made it more fun. Pretty new so everything was as good as new. Food choice were plentiful and pretty good. For a property with over 800 rooms... More

Just spent a great 2 weeks here and I can't believe some of the reviews I have read about this place, Moaning about the weather (To windy or to hot) Moaning about the food or whining about the staff. All I can say is those who have complained must have stayed at some fantastic hotels before. Firstly, when we arrived... More

Had a great week in the sun, the hotel was new in 2011 and is huge low rise excellent hotel in a remote setting, not there's much to do on Boa Vista but if you want a holiday in the sun by the pool or beach then this is the place. Great selection of food, with friendly staff. The hotel... More

Here we have a few positives and negatives we expierenced during our holiday:... More

I went here in May 2012 with my partner, his brother, wife and 2 kids. Weather was absolutely amazing not one bad day. Staff i found were quite rude in the restaurants, and bar staff not much better. Food was repetitive after a while but there was plenty to choose from. There was not alot for children to pick from.... More

Visited this hotel in April 2013 and was hoping for a relaxing holiday, and it was. Having said this you could find plenty to do at the hotel if you wanted to, but there was no pressure to do so. The main pool could be fairly noisy at times with music and other entertainments. However we paid extra to stay... More

Outside the hotel complex, there is almost nothing to do or visit except for walks on long beautiful sandy beaches which the hotel is built on. Within the complex you have almost everything you could possibly want. I spent two weeks with my wife doing almost nothing during the day, except trying to make my mind up on which of... More

Husband and I usually avoid all-inclusives like the plague...we generally prefer independent holidays where we book our flights, pick up a hire car at our destination, and set off into the wild blue yonder (as it generally is), stopping off at whatever town or city catches our eye and finding a motel or hotel or rented accommodation for a night...
