Eden Valley Ecolodge and Farming

Madalena

Featuring pool views, Eden Valley Ecolodge and Farming in Madalena features accommodation, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden. This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking. Guests can enjoy garden views. I have stayed 2 nights on the 1 bed bungalow + 4 nights on the 2 bed bungalow: this review will be about both of these to avoid duplicate reviews. About the bungalows: - The bungalows are absolutely beautiful, very well cleaned, beautifully decorated. Mattress and pillows were super comfortable, as well as quality of the sheets. And bonus points - only accommodation in Sao Tome I found a duvet!!! Most places have just a small blanket but nothing beats a proper duvet for someone like me who always gets cold at night. - It has a mini fridge, a TV, hot water with good pressure, quality towels, a hammock and sofas outside to chill. Honestly, this is top quality accommodation, especially for the cost. About the property: - The staff are super kind and helpful and made me feel very looked after <3 and the owner Erikson was always available through whatsapp ready to send tips, ask how things are going, etc also super accommodating with doing late check out since my flights was not before 10pm. - Their menu is really amazing, and they have proper vegetarian meals!!! It's amazing to feel that vegetarian meals are not just an afterthought. The desserts were also absolutely spectacular (that passionfruit mousse... to die for). And the omelette they made for lunch was exquisite, other locations should learn from them on how to make an omelette dish that is actually good, not oily, balanced and super tasty. - The waterfall that can be heard from anywhere in the property is yet another amazing selling point. You can hike to see it up close! - I enjoyed the pool and the pond next to it, with fish and turtles! Even if turtles were a bit shy. Nice place to refresh after a day out. - And last but not least, Jeff, the ginger cat. He's such a lovely kitty!!! As a crazy cat lady this was definitely one of the best things (I often look for cat references in reviews so leaving this one for other crazy cat people like myself :)) Overall top notch accommodation in Sao Tome!

RALUX house

São Tomé

Featuring garden views, RALUX house in São Tomé offers accommodation and a garden. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The apartment features sea views, a sun terrace, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. Very quiet location and neat. You can walk to these places (the market, Presidential Palace, the museum and the beach) owner is friendly and can speak a bit of English too so I was able to communicate. I had a problem in the room and he quickly fixed it. We were supposed to leave the room at 13:00 but our flight was evening, and he made us stay for extra hours before leaving for the airport without charging us. A very good location I must say.

Welfare AgroTurismo

Milagrosa

Set in Milagrosa in the Sao Tome Island region, Welfare AgroTurismo features a balcony and mountain views. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. Guests can make use of a bar. This was the best place we stayed in Sao Tome. It is about 30 to 40 min drive from the airport. The garden in the front of the property is fabulous and well designed with many interesting plants and fruit trees. There is also a cocoa plantation through which you can take a leisurely walk. The owner, Maria, was an excellent host. She was very welcoming and friendly and she made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The food was very good and we had 3 evening meals there all of which were delicious and well presented. The Mousse au Chocolat made with cocoa from their own plantation was so good that we had it for dessert each time. The breakfast is very good too and we were given plenty of fresh fruits and fruit juice. We stayed there twice and both rooms we were given were very clean and the beds very comfortable. If you are after peace and quiet this is a fantastic place as you are surrounded by nature. There is also the option to take longer walks in the area.

VIP House-Praia Francesca

São Tomé

Featuring mountain views, VIP House-Praia Francesca features accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around less than 1 km from Lagarto Beach. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace. The accommodation provides free shuttle service and a 24-hour front desk for guests. This accommodation was for us the start of a dream vacation. The comfort and size of the accommodation alone would be reason for us to rate highly. In addition, the incredibly dear and impressive host. We very rarely get into raptures, but this host is a sensation: so warm, so interesting and interested: simply impressive and what a gift to experience. A few more words about the accommodation. The accommodation is large, very clean and has a sensational terrace. The bed is perfect and large, windows have mosquito protection, are tight and even have blinds (so you can make it nice and dark to sleep) The garden is a dream. You not only see (almost) all the fruits you dream of, but also get them served for breakfast. Indescribably beautiful as already mentioned the meeting with the landlord Mr. Simão. Many recommendations, lots of interesting information and conversations about the region. It was also ingenious to arrive so late and have a place to stay so close to the airport. We were picked up, although it is only a few hundred meters, with a jeep. After many hours of flight, a luxury to be received so and to land in such a nice accommodation. Our summary and with focus on a round trip: the perfect place to arrive or depart from São Tomé and Principe and spent time close to airport and a nice beach close to the town. If we were business travelers we would say: a perfect place to have a nice, calm and safe accommodation away from the center

Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk and a shared kitchen, along with free WiFi throughout the property. There is free private parking and the property provides paid airport shuttle service. Romario, Augustinho, Jet and Cecilio made my stay incredible. These guys are rockstars. Sweet, caring, fun, always ready to help out, but they went beyond. We shared amazing times together, played cards and much much more. They are incredible and I'm jealous already that you guys are gonna meet them. They are missed and will always be part of me! (also there is a monkey! And he has a little home but is free during the day so be ready to have the cutest little macacu ever appearing on your balcony!) Muito obrigada a todos. ♥
