Located in Praia, 700 metres from Praia de Gamboa and 1 km from Praia Negra, Techas City Center Luxurious Suite offers air conditioning. A hot tub is available for guests.

The apartment is in an excellent location close to the older part of the town where there is a park, banks, shops, bakeries and lots of restaurants. During the day, outside the apartment is quite busy as it is opposite the post office, but after 6pm there are lot of free spaces to park a car. We tended to stay out until this time then park our hire car and pay for a couple of hours in the morning while we ate breakfast. Speaking of breakfast, the restaurant below the apartment is really good and Gabriela cooks wonderful healthy meals which are either vegetarian or vegan - she even made me a birthday cake on request! We didn't find the restaurant at all noisy in the evenings and in fact slept extremely well. The apartment is just right to make yourself feel at home for a week. The only source of hot water is in the shower but it is consistent. There were plenty of towels. We didn't try the oven or gas hob as we preferred to eat out. Syd, the host/owner was very helpful and friendly. She organised a taxi to and from the airport which saved us being mobbed by the usual taxi touts. It was great that we were able to message her at any time on WhatApp if we had a problem. She also has a restaurant in another part of town, although we didn't discover this until the last day and so didn't get the chance to try it. Overall an excellent place to stay and I would recommend it.

    This is a new place on booking.com, and we were the first guests. The kitchen is very well equipped, and there is a lot of space. One bedroom was already equipped with an AC, the second room was in preparation (they provided a fan which was sufficient). There is also an AC in the main room. Patrick was a great host, extremely nice & helpful, thanks a lot! The location is fantastic, right in the center. I can happily recommend that place!

    Amazing location right in the centre of Plateau area. You can order a taxi from Raquel and he will take you from the airport to the apartment, regardless the hour. Super lovely host, that is always available for a good suggestion for dinner and , what and how to visit the island. Spacious apartment with kitchen equipment, comfortable bed and great Wi-Fi. Located in a safe area, where you can go walking to have dinner in nearby restaurants without needing to take a taxi. Recommend 100%
