Great location, minutes from the beach, on a central street. The room was clean and spacious, the bathroom as well. The AC was working and cooling off the room pretty quickly in the summer heat. The room is equipped with a water heater and some complimentary coffee/tea (which was a pleasant touch!). Good breakfast and polite and helpful staff (despite arriving in the late evening, around 22-23:00, they prepared us a nice meal for dinner).

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.

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.

Visitors are immediately immersed into the daily activities...

Visitors are immediately immersed into the daily activities of the local people and their animals. One will hears 'tud fixe?' all the time and from all the people around you. With a smile and a thumbs-up. You need to reply "tud fixe!", smile back and show your thumb. And life is easy. No nonsense of the outside world. Best fruit: papaya. Best fish: lobo (?) or locally caught. Ask Zeza for octopus. You will get delicious catchupa sooner than later for your breakfast. Zeza is a most welcoming host you can ever imagine. The same applies to the rest of her family and friends who help at Dunas. Ricardo is most helpful when it comes to all the outside activities or needs. Ask for a tour around the island or fishing from the local boat. Enjoy the local beach. Black sand. No people. Probably because of covid. It was a tremendous stay for us. :-)

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.

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.

Actually I’m a Nigerian.

Actually I’m a Nigerian. When I traveled there I found it difficult to communicate in Cape Verde due to I can’t speak Portuguese. But there are another islands that they do speak English there. in this country 99% people speaks Portuguese. So that’s just my experience. But the was nice and peaceful
