Pipi's Guest House, featuring a garden, a terrace and a bar, is located in São Filipe, 2.4 km from Sao Filipe Beach.

At the bed and breakfast, every unit comes with a wardrobe. With a private bathroom, units at the bed and breakfast also offer free WiFi. At the bed and breakfast, each unit is equipped with bed linen and towels.

This was exactly what I needed a tranquil, beautiful tropical paradise getaway just far enough from the city to enjoy a peaceful day and night but close enough to everything. The airport is right there so perfect place to get your rest during your Cabo Verde getaway. Pipi and her family are a true blessing and are the best hosts I've encountered in a long time. As a frequent traveler I cannot say enough about how great this place was. Pool was the perfect size to cool off. The food was amazing. Cocktails were delicious. The room was spacious and super clean. Comfy bed, large shower (hot water). I could go on and on but words aren't enough. Go there check it out for yourself you will not regret it.

Boasting a bar and views of sea, Cruzeiro Guest House is a recently renovated guest house situated in São Filipe, a few steps from Sao Filipe Beach. The property features city and quiet street views. The guest house has facilities for disabled guests.

I was upgraded to a room with balcony facing the sea. Absolutely delightful sight. Very quiet hotel with everything you need. Of course it's very impersonal, a generic hotel room, so if you're looking for an authentic Cabo Verdian experience this is not for you, but if you're looking for a clean, spacious, quiet and comfortable place to rest, it is perfect. The cleanliness was not perfect but was pretty good ; nothing too problematic. The AC is a huge advantage!

    Beautiful location, quiet and great retreat for proper rest with a stunning sunset. The bungalows are private with a balcony. Great location to stay if you are visiting the vulcano, however it takes 1 hour plus driving to get there.

    Dominga is a warm and helpful hostess. Even though we could only communicate via gestures / deepl, the communication went well. The room was large and the shared bathroom always clean. Breakfast was delicious and you get fresh fruit and bread. She is happy to help organize day tours at a reasonable price. The Wifi connection is fast :)
