Spacious hotel with clean room equipped with all amenities. Very good breakfast served at a terrace facing the Atlantic Ocean. The sea view and pool with salty water were just great. There is a Breeze bar which serves really good drinks and great seafood. The hotel is in an optimal location if you would like to explore Praia, the port, the lighthouse, and nearby beaches. The staff was really helpful and responsive. We spent 10 great days there!

Best stay in Praia! Maria Julia and her staff are incredibly dedicated to the place. You feel as if you are being hosted by a dear friend or family member. Maria Julia is also a chef, and her breakfast is unbelievably delicious. The space is very nice and relaxing, with a tasteful atmosphere and decor

Central location - in the middle of Tarrafal, and 2 minutes by walk to the beach. Very pleasant and helping staff (various things: very late arrival, arranging taxi, snorkeling gear, late check-out). Superb breakfast - especially home-made marmelades and fresh juices.

Our stay at Falucho paradise beach was nothing short of amazing. The property was exactly as advertised—clean, well-maintained, and perfectly located near the beach, which made it incredibly convenient to enjoy the stunning coastline. The staff truly made our experience unforgettable with their warmth and attentiveness, ensuring we felt cared for from the moment we arrived. The food was another highlight, with exceptional meals that exceeded our expectations. Breakfast, in particular, stood out for its variety, offering plenty of options to suit every preference.

Praia is beautiful.

Praia is beautiful. Thought there are challenges travelling to Cape Verde... I was double charged for the visa (even though I have a visa free access!!) They promised to refundone payment, but instead, they are giving me non-existen email, refusing to do anthing... Also, many people seem unfriendly and unprofessional. Overall the city is beautiful, but the challenges are too big for a normal traveller who could also visit Canary islands instead. If someone only comes for a week, it is not even time to start enjoying...

Tarrafal by itself is nice to visit for a few days.

Tarrafal by itself is nice to visit for a few days. Beach, good restaurants, you can do hikes on Monte Graciosa, and Tras os Montes. Restaurant 'chez mama' has some hiking maps. And good food too. I spent most of my time fishing. From the rocks at Punta Atum, of from a boat. One thing to keep in mind. Tarrafal in August is hot. You can go up to Serra Malagueta where it is cooler. But rainy in August.

Nice beach, clean but poor surroundings.

Nice beach, clean but poor surroundings. The proximity with the airport (35 min.) makes it a potential nice destination. The city should promote more actively the destination in order to attract developers which could renew the houses we can see from the beach and which are falling apart. Hopefully in the future this can be done and attract more visitors and have additional hotels. The potential exists.

It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman.

It's a great place, just be care if you are a woman. Do NOT go out alone or at night. My housemate and I went to a beach that was 6-7 walking minutes away. It was absolutely lovely. We went at 6pm and left at 8pm. It was dark. Unfortunately 2 masked children (of about 12) tried to "jump" us with knives. I've been traveling for 30 years and robbed 7 times before (including this; that averages out to 1/4 years and I AM VERY WHITE, with blue eyes, blond hair and stand out in certain places, so I may be an "easy target". Still, I've never had knives drawn on me. So PLEASE be careful, especially if you are women. BE SMART. I wasn't. Thankfully all I walked away with was some PTSD and bad memories, but they had masks & REAL KNIVES and it could have been VERY BAD.

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.

Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere...

Crowded and chaotic city, far from the peaceful atmosphere found on the other Cape Verde islands. The local population generally doesn’t speak English and often seems offended if you don’t speak to them in Portuguese. Tourists are frequently stared at, which can make you feel a bit out of place, and the overall impression is that visitors aren’t always welcome. We had a bad experience in Praínha, where persistent children came up asking for money, while older men seemed to be eyeing our bags left on the towels. We ended up having to leave immediately by taxi. Outside of the Plateau—the only area recommended for tourists and heavily patrolled by military and police—you don’t really feel safe.
