Very cosy little town with nice beach and friendly local people. You can eat very affordable in local bars/restaurants or choose European food in couple of restaurants. The center is quite small, so you walk around easy. Beach is nice and not too much people.

Amazing beach, friendly people, very nice "city" to walk around. Not much to do there so a couple of days are enough to get to know the place, but can't hurt to stay longer and just relax at the beach that is AMAZING!
You can eat at Cegonha, Buzios or at the Vista Mar hotel restaurant next to the beach!
Seafood and fish is really fresh.

IF you are stuck in Praia, do like the locals and go to Tarrafal for the weekend. Its beach beats anything you find in Praia. If you are a diver and conditions are too poor in the south, look for Santiago diving and have a great dive.
Even the trip there is amazing with impressive mountains. Take a taxi for 60 Euro's or a bus for 5 euro per person, departing from the Sucopira Market.
For the rest, its just a cute little town.
THE place to be in Tarrafal! Where you meet fellow travelers! Central location, close to everything: beach, shops, restaurants, shared taxi station, markets...etc. Staff is extremely helpful, constantly cleaning, fixing, socializing and making sure we have everything we need. Delicious and nutritious breakfast, you get to order how you want your eggs cooked. Spacious, clean, sunny room with a large balcony. Comfortable couches in the common areas. Really enjoyed my stay there!
Comfortable and spacious flat right in the center of Tarrafal. Four bedrooms allow privacy, a nicely furnished, open living room and a generous terrace with a hammock provide community space. Located right in the center of town, in walking distance to the beautiful Tarrafal beach and local markets. Gilson is a super friendly owner who makes you feel welcome and comfortable, and offers his help beyond the appartment. Thank you, we did enjoy our stay very much!
Very friendly and helpful staff. Very spacious, clean and comfortable rooms. Very tasty all-you-can-eat breakfast on rhe roof top terrace with stunning views at the sea and the island Fogo. Good Internet connection. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone who wants to enjoy Tarrafal in a relaxed and comfortable way.
very comfortable bed and pillows, best bed we slept on while in Africa for 1 month. best sleep I in Africa. good breakfast, friendly service and personnel. western amenities. Tarrafal is a lovely village with a gorgeous beach and great hiking paths with dramatic views. I recommend going there for a weekend.
Perfect hangout for your stay in Tarrafal. António welcomes you in his town with tips and tricks to make your stay as comfortable as possible! Great location to discover the town and it's surroundings. Nice terrace and rooms, and all the things you need for an independant trip.
Guesthouse attached to a restaurant 200m further where the breakfast is, the space between the two is the middle of a restructuring so is a mess. Despite to have a look in the problem with cold water, it wasn't fixed. Tarrafal itself is relaxed.
I really liked the hotel, always clean and the rooms have a lot of space and are very common and everything works perfectly, the staff is excellent, always very friendly and attentive, nothing to point out from ,the best places I've ever been
really perfect - very relaxing atmosphere, good view, delicious food, good cocktails, very friendly personell
Tarrafal is something special - gorgous place and still not overrun by thousands of tourists. Many possibilities close by
This was our preferred accommodation on Santiago Island and particularly Tarrafal. It is great price-value, clean and furnished with love for small details. Antonio is such a kind and welcoming host, helping wherever he can.
Attentive and welcoming owners. Very good breakfast and excellent location including clean rooms! I love the relaxful terrace where I had a breathtaking view of the city of Tarrafal de Santiago. I will surely come back!
The hotel has an amazing location by the coast - you can even hear the waves as you sleep from the seaside rooms. The staff was very friendly, and the hotel restaurant has the best food in Tarrafal. Wi-Fi worked well
The hotel was great, calm and clean. You can enjoy the beach located in front of the hotel, you'll share it mainly with families, and youth groups. You can even have some natural coconut water from local marchands.
