We had an amazing experience at Bia D’Olaf on Sal Island. The apartment was spotless, modern, and very comfortable — everything looked new and perfectly maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always with a smile and ready to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The location couldn’t be better — just a short walk from the beach and the main areas of Santa Maria, yet peaceful and relaxing. A special bonus is the wonderful bakery and café downstairs, owned by the same family. Their pastries, coffee, and breakfasts are simply delicious — the perfect way to start the day! Everything was truly five stars — cleanliness, comfort, hospitality, and the little details that make a big difference. We will definitely come back and recommend Bia D’Olaf to anyone visiting Sal Island!

The communication was amazing, the apartment manager sent us all kinds of information beforehand and arranged an airport taxi for us. There were drinks in the room and he later brought us fruits. The apartment was clean, had everything you need (cooking supplies), we loved that there were plenty of towels. They arranged a baby bed for us free of charge and also late checkout free of charge. The kids loved the Minion and Frozen themed bedsheets and there were also a few boardgames at the apartment. The location is nice and quiet, 1 min walk to a less popular beach, 10 min walk to the pier and beautiful beach. 2 min from the main walking street, several supermarkets nearby. Nice pool area.

The apartment is very spacious. We were 2 people but it can easily accommodate 4 people with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The kitchen is well equipped. The air-conditioning in the bedroom is a plus and the swimming pool is nice. The nearest beach is at a 15 min distance walk with some beach bars/restaurants and free chairs. Ideal if you are a sunset lover. Fernando is very available to answer all the questions you have.

The property was really well supplied with a beautiful pool and great porch. The location is great, a 5 minute walk to the beach and near restaurants/bars and supermarkets. Balzhas, the owner, was amazing! He made us feel completely at home, sent us lots of recommendations, came over with treats for us, and made sure we had everything we needed for the stay. I could not compliment him more if I tried.

The apartment was very dark and dingy. The bathroom needed updating. The balcony was just tired and did not have a holiday vibe the actual location , pool setting was fab. The bed settee was very small etc. Would not stay again in this apartment.

I had a fantastic stay at this clean and well-maintained apartment. The shower was small but had good pressure and steady hot water. Ana, the owner, went above and beyond to make my experience memorable. She was incredibly helpful and kind, allowing me to store my belongings at her salon and providing a place to shower after my late evening ferry ride. The apartment’s convenient location made it easy to walk to both the beach and town. Overall, a highly recommended and hospitable accommodation.

This is a very good place to stay on Sal. If you want to live in the town or don't want to do the all inclusive resorts. The quality of the accommodation and the helpfulness of the staff are both outstanding, Staff were very helpful and booked taxi transports and day trips efficiently without drama. The room was large, airy and bright, it had a kettle, toasty machine, fridge, a safe and netflix on a large screen tv. shower was large and there was loads of hot water at all times.
