This is the perfect place to stay if you want to get to know the real Sal and its people. The owners went above and beyond to make me feel not only welcome, but truly at home. The room was super comfy, and the food was always delicious (be sure to try one of Candida's secret recipes for dinner, if you get the chance). I was provided with all the help and advice I needed in order to explore the island, and Candida and Martin personally took me to places that only local people know about. If, like me, you prefer a quiet, remote beach over those crowed, touristy ones: there's a small one just a short bicycle ride away – although I usually opted for a walk through to beautiful steppe landscape to get there. If you prefer spending your days with the other tourists down in the south of the island: Santa Maria beach is only 20 minutes by bus – which may sound complicated at first, but is actually super fun and convenient (and it only costs 1 Euro). I could go on praising this place for two weeks (which is actually the amount of time I stayed), but I'll just stop here – not without saying: Thank you, Candida & Martin, for the wonderful time at kleine schweiz! Até a próxima vez.

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!

Super comfortable beds, nice shower, and the smell of cleaning and fresh in all the linen and towels is amazing. The decor makes you feel at home, with a beach twist, of course. Loved everything. The host Nany, is also spectacular taking care of everything

Always someone at the reception, the girls are incredibly kind, good breakfast also for vegetarians, very central ( 1 min away of Calema pub) and few minutes from the beach. In the last day (now) they prepared the breakfast early and fast just as we have the time to eat before our flight ( and we didnt even asked for).

I chose this hotel for my last night in Cape Verde as was doing a sailing holiday and needed a night before my flight home the next day. The previous hotel was awful (mozzies) and in the middle of nowhere. so I booked the mirabella and it was fantastic. They new I would be early and they had my room ready for like 11am which was amazing. Simone was the perfect host very welcoming happy woman. The room the facilities the breakfast was spot on. Roof top area to chill and eat. Smack bang in the centre 2 minutes from the beach. If I ever go back to Cape Verde I will stop here.

Lucio is not only a great host, but also a known and beloved celebrity of Santa Maria! His apartment is the perfect budget-friendly accomodation for a couple, providing all necessities (+ a few nice extras) in a convenient location. Strongly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at the OceanRoof. The apartments are modern, very clean and superbly equipped - very important for us: the comfortable and clean bed. The hotel is also very quiet and ideally located for us, right by the beach and also by AnguloBeach for water sports. JC is a really attentive host who was always helpful with many bookings such as car rental, taxi and restaurant tips. An absolute recommendation for a stay on Sal!

Mamadou was very quick at responding to messages and fixed the toilet and did some washing whilst we stayed. The apartment was very clean. The kitchen was well equipped. It was comfortable. Pool was basic but nice, we used it everyday. The location was good, 15 mins walk to the pedestrian street. Quiet at night.

The apartment is simple but adequate when you spend most of the day on the beach. The location of the property is its best point. It takes 2 minutest to one of the better beaches on Sal The staff was responsive to any issues and lucky enough we had only one minor issue to deal with.

Very clean, spacious, modern apartment. Had everything I needed during my week stay. Location is perfect, less than a 10 minute walk to the beach, in a safe area. Smooth Check in/out process and even provided somewhere to store my luggage as I had a late flight. Added bonus the Apartment was cleaned during my stay, which I didn’t expect from a self catering apartment. Amazing communication from start to finish.
