Popular points of interest near the guest house include Jaime Mota Barracks, Praia Presidential Palace and Alexandre Albuquerque Square. The nearest airport is Nelson Mandela International, 4 km from KAZARÃO DI MAVETE - Guesthouse, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

Stayed in room 2 which is amazingly restored with air conditioning, lots of natural light from those 3 large windows, French balcony, ocean view, and a very modern bathroom with an excellent shower. Internet was perfect during my entire stay. Enjoyed the complimentary Nespresso coffee in the lobby. Excellent airport transfers and a half day tour to a nearby historic town and fort were arranged by the owner at minimal cost. The location of the property was excellent and breakfast was easy to obtain about 50 meters up the street at a delightful cafe again at low cost. Enjoyed lunches, dinners and cold beers at the many restaurants, bars and cafes within walking distance of the guesthouse. Eddy is an exceptional host and very knowledgeable about everything in Cape Verde. He brings staying at this accommodation to another level. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Cape Verde and would without hesitation recommend Eddy to suggest/arrange any tours in this beautiful country.

    A great location in a quiet residential area. Praça centro Palmarejo (ATMs, phone shop, buses 8,10,12 ) is a 10 minutes walk away. Closer still is a chemist and if you want to have a local lunch we found 2 good places on avenida santo Antão. The bedroom had shelves and a space to hang clothes which was practical and there was plenty of hot water. We were made to feel welcome and everyone was friendly and helpful.

    Our host Patricia was super friendly and helpful, she gave us great insights and recommendations. Aside from being at a very central location, the guesthouse and the room was squeeky clean and very homely. This was our cleanest accomodation in Cape Verde. From our room we had an amazing view to the ocean,we had a great last day, as we could leave our luggages there after our check out till the late evening hours. 10/10

    Beautiful room with an incredible host, who went to extra lengths to help me when I left my phone in a taxi. The apartment is clean, spacious and has everything you need, in a great location near to the main streets of Plateau and within walking distance from the beautiful Prainha beach. Would highly recommend.
