if you go on their website, it will look very nice, modern and attractive. Reality is far different: despite the building is rather looking like the photographs on their website, it is no longer as new as it was and looks a bit like an old and cheap ikea house... Rooms are not clear at all since the building is... More

We spent 8 days in Casa Velha, first on 3rd floor in a small appartment, and the last 5 days in this super Penthouse....a place you wish you could live in back home! The fabulous large private terrace is a gem! Lounging, reading and sunbathing after 2/3 days of driving around the island in a 4x4, which is about what... More

I stayed for a week in Apartment F in Casa Vehla in January 2009. I was very disappointed and shocked that the apartment was so damp. It obviously hadn't been aired and stank of damp - the air was literally thick and fetid. The damp appeared to be coming through from the floor. This might not have been a problem... More

The Penthouse is great, very clean, quiet, the service in the house is very friendly, every question we had, was answered, everything was done to let us feel relexed. The view is wonderful, the terrace is big and nice, there is allways a little wind, so it is not too hot, to read or relax outside. The beach is beautyfull,... More

Just back from a week in Boa Vista...and in Casa Velha resort. After a difficult year we wanted to rest for a week in a friendly environment, without struggling with rain, wind and low temperatures...and this was it! We favoured a guesthouse rather than an international resort. This is a beautiful place, and a nice staff. Cristina, with her team,... More

Having just returned from a week stay at Casa Vehla i think it only fair to give a ' realistic' review . The apartments are really great , well designed all be with lots of Ikea furniture!!! the issue is they are the only building in the area that is completed so you are in the middle of a building...

We had a fantastic week - everything about Boa Vista, Casa Velha and the penthouse apartment was perfect for us. Boa vista is currently largely undeveloped and uncommercialised and it is a privledge to be able to see it and spend time in it "as it is". The staff at Casa Velha are first class, the apartment is large, spacious... More

We had a wonderful time in Boa Vista. My husband and I (50th birthday) went to completely get away from everything, together. It was just the sort of holiday I had hoped it would be. The apartment was wonderful, with total privacy and peace and quiet. There is very little to do so only go if you want each others... More

We had a fantastic Xmas and New Year in Cape Verde staying in Casa Velha made it so much more special! I would recommend this Casa Velha to everyone. It is just a short walk from the main square. Cristina, the owner of Casa Velha could not of done enough for us. She catered for all our needs and was... More

We were lucky enough to stay at the penthouse apartment, which is like a romantic honeymoon venue. The apartment has fantastic sea views and nobody overlooks you. To sit on the bedroom veranda watching the sun setting over the sea, then in BED watching the yacht lights twinkling in the bay was truly memorable. Casa Velha is clean, new, light... More
