Do not hesitate staying here. The people, the food, the place, the view, the neighbours, the little tea and biscuit after a long walk, making sure we have transport,... Nothing is to mutch to ask. The people make this place a little paradise!

Great place. Runny a women’s association. Huge and tasty dinner and breakfast. Highly recommended. We hiked there from Espongeiros, also recommended. We did not meet any tourist on the way.

Everything! Beautiful location, friendly staff, absolutely amazing food and the fact that it’s run by a women’s cooperative. This place was such a great find!

It is a very good place, if you look for an authentic village. It is managed by the local women association, and it is managed well. All is clean and well-kept. Good local food. The village is very quiet. The view is spectacular and the sunsets are idyllic. The village nightlife concentrates around a shop run by Antonio and it is a good place to meet the villagers. They welcome visitors. I posted more stories and images at nomadicmind.org

The guesthouse is in a beautiful location with great mountain views from the terrace. Staff is wonderful, very attentive and they prepare excellent food. We felt very well taken care of. It‘s a nice place to meet other travellers too. The local people are also very kind and easygoing.

If you like to be away from the hustle and bustle of town life and hear the crickets sing as you sleep, this is your place. The staff welcome you like family and they care so much about your experience. The food was so fresh and lovingly prepared by the gracious and helpful hosts. We left our phone charger behind and one of the staff went the extra mile to deliver it by hand at our next destination. We really can’t rate our experience higher and knowing that we were supporting women in business in this mountain region added an extra connection to the place. Thank you. Rachel and Malcolm.

Really amazing experience, one of the best places in Cabo Verde. The ladies in the Women association that manages the BnB are really friendly, they received me with open heart. They even made cake for my birthday and celebrated together. Really authentic experience, they will stay in my heart. Eneida even took us at a local event in the village. The views are stunning from the window and terrace, the rooms are big, the food delicious. You can walk 10min, 30min or 1-2h or more and still have great views. Easy to take colectivo (aluguer) to go to the most important hikes from the island. The breakfast is very delicious and big so some days I didn't need lunch. They can arrange colectivo (aluguer) to pick you up from the ferry for only 5 euros.

The house is located in a very peaceful area surrounded by amazing nature and the view from there is spectacular. There are only a few other small hotels around the area so you feel very connected to the local life and villages. It’s uphill to get to the accommodation but it’s totally worth it to stay there . You can walk around the whole area for a day and witness the breathtaking sights. This guest house supports the women in the community and everything is very authentic. The stuff there don’t speak English but they made me delicious food and even accompanied me to explore the area. It was truly a special experience!!

Super nice women, very good food, also vegetarian! They were very helpful and gave us a lot of tips, organized a ride and got someone pick us up from the port. A bit up a hill with a rough road but the views are great. The money they make goes to families of the village and they have some facilities for the kids of the village to work on computers. Recommended!
