Best Hotels near Djunta Mo Art, Santa Maria

Great holiday. The hotel complex offers you everything you need: pools, restaurant, bakery, supermarket etc. Reception is friendly. Its a twenty-minute walk into Santa Maria, but there are also free shuttle buses, or a taxi at 4 euros.

The best hotel in the whole island of Sal, except for Riu, is Hilton. Unfortunately, there is no Riu at the time of booking, but Hilton is very new, the decoration is very beautiful, and the facilities in the room are very modern. The hotel swimming pool is very large, the beach is outside, the greening is very good, the photo is beautiful, but the room is a little far from the beach, only half of the sea view room.

Great service from taking our cases from our transport to returning to our transport on our departure. Nice rooms refurbished to a high standard. Great buffet restaurant with wide variety of food and most freshly cooked in front of you. All staff were friendly and helpful. Only fault was no shower cap and the coffee/creamer in the room was not topped up. The mini fridge was though and there were optics with spirits. One of us has mobility issues and uses a walking stick and got about as normal. We were well looked after. Just the odd guest decided to ignore the signs reserving tables for the disabled. The hotel appeared to be wheelchair friendly though we didn't use. We plan to return.

The official rating of this hotel is 4 stars, and with a bit of cosmetic upgrading and better staffing in the kitchen, I could see it reaching that level (it seems like it may have once been a real 4 star). As it was, the room quality itself was more 3 star, and the outside area was 4 stars. We had a 'deluxe sea view' with no terrace. There was lots of rough paintwork and lack of maintenance on the small details in the rooms, but overall it was fine, with a huge comfy bed and a nice shower and a lovely view out the window. Unfortunately the entry was at the street side of the hotel which was our smoking area, and that view was just the dirt road and some houses. Overall we would stay here again as the room was fine, the staff were great, the pool area was amazing, nobody had any screaming kids (very quiet and peaceful, great for couples) and while the beach required stepping over rocks, it also had the best snorkeling area with the most fish. Another sandy beach with less fish and two beach bars is a 3 minute walk away, and the main ***** with the main beach is a 10 minute walk (that one is useless for snorkeling but great for swimming). Besides snorkeling, it's also a preferred spot for wind surfing. We happened to try the hotel restaurant on a really bad night apparently, we waited an hour for our seafood paella which was average quality but double the price of the ***** restaurants. However, according to the other patrons who did all inclusive, the service was usually much faster. and the food usually much better. We did also have burgers for lunch one day, and those were expensive but very nice. Breakfast was included in our stay and it had an extensive and delicious continental selection, plus hot eggs and bacon on order, always very fast. The staff were super attentive and completely on their game, absolutely fantastic service. We got a great deal on a package holiday with LoveHolidays, so for the price we were very happy and would definitely stay again.

I had a few initial issues with the electricals in the room which the manager Miguel sorted quickly, lovely guy. The staff were very friendly and the free shuttle bus into Santa Maria meant could enjoy a nice sandy beach. Quiet location with restaurant and bar and nearby mini market.

All I can say is AMAZING! First time to Cape Verde and this hotel and will definitely return. Staff are so friendly and helpful, rooms are immaculate, as is the whole resort. I felt so well looked after by all the staff and nothing was a problem. The beach is stunning! Had a fantastic private day tour with Imanuep from the beach and explored the island, paddling with sharks, blue eye, salt lake! The staff here deserve a huge amount of credit as they make the experience feel luxurious and enjoyable! They work so hard and always with a smile! Well done to all!

Melia Hotel is divided into Melia Dunas and Sol Dunas, both of which belong to Melia. In the same place, the facilities are shared one after the other, but Sol guests can go to Melia for dining and vice versa. The hotels are all white. There are no descent, it can be said that almost all the hotels in Cape Verde are like this, and most of them are white elderly couples, not many young people, singles are not, and you do n’t need to think about looking for a chance. The room is large and comfortable, the disadvantage is that there are many mosquitoes. After check out, you can still enjoy all the facilities and have a bathroom and a dressing room. One price all-inclusive buffet type is OK, not a lot. The service is very good, you have to answer questions. More recommended hotel near Santa Maria Beach in the south, it's so beautiful!
