9.2/10 Wonderful! (11 reviews)
We had an amazing stay at the Branco Suites! The people working there were incredibly friendly and so helpful too! The apartment was just perfect! The bed was very comfortable and the the pillows were the best ones I have ever slept on!! It was very quiet there and also just a couple of minutes walk to the beach!! and all the restaurants and shops. I would highly recommend staying at this place! Thank you! Xx

Excellent property, service and staff was exceptional. Food was decent. They had a lot of entertainment for guests, shopping for gifts and souvenirs was available. Pools were regularly cleaned, sunloungers were cleaned at the end of the day by staff too. The only issue we had was after multiple phone calls to the spa we were not able to book an appointment because they had no availability for 2 days. The lady on the phone could not understand us and asked us to come to the spa. When we checked in went straight to the spa and she had no availability till after we checked out and that was very disappointing, had we known during our initial phone call we would had got a treatment elsewhere as that was the last place we stayed before flying. Secondly, the coffee machines in the breakfast area were bad.

This was my first visit to Cape Verde and I will definitely stay here again on any future visits. The entire property was very neat and clean and reasonably priced. Loved the unique decor. From the front desk to the bartender…Every single member of the staff was super friendly and helpful, even with problems I had trying to move around the country away from the hotel. They definitely went above and beyond. I absolutely recommend!

Lovely looking hotel right in the centre of the city however the hotel is not fully ready ie there were no cushions for the sun loungers to use by the pool, some areas still under construction and breakfast is not the best. For the high price paid, it is not worth it at this point in time. It will be once everything is set up.
