Situated in São Filipe, within a few steps of Sao Filipe Beach, Cruzeiro Guest House is an accommodation offering sea views. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace.

Located in a quieter area, the view from the bedroom is very nice. Very big room with a lot of space and very clean.

Located in São Filipe, Fogo region, Pensão Domingas is situated less than 1 km from Sao Filipe Beach. This guest house provides free private parking, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi.

The owner of this place is really nice and helps you out a lot. She provided me with all the information I needed, whenever I asked (one of my many) questions. It will help if you speak a bit of Portuguese when you are visiting, but that applies to the whole of Cabo Verde. I would recommend this place if you want to have a nice bed in a comfortable place.

Located in Portela in the Fogo region, Pensão CasaDanilo features a patio and garden views. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. Guests can have a drink at the bar.

One of the most relaxing places I have ever stayed, great value for money. Dani and his family prepared great food everyday, very very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Great recommendations concerning the surrounding area and the volcano. They offer all kind of tours for different levels of experience without being too pushy for it, so if you want to do a hike on your own, you still get the same great recommendations. Overall just a great place to spend your time, very relaxing.

    It was a great expérience staying in the pension. Dimingas and her family are very friendly and welcoming and you get a family feel (which was a nice change after staying in an hotel the week before). Zuka is a great guide if you want to visit the island and climb on the volcan, and he speaks perfect French, English and Spanish. The family was very flexible about the check out time, and also arranged a taxi everytime I needed one. The location is very close to the city center and great restaurants, as well as shops.

    The host was nice and responsive. It was quiet at night and I could hear the sea and watch stars from my room.

    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 :)
