    Henry and Pipi are really nice people and they can cook very well. The breakfast was the best we had in our 3 weeks Cape Verde

    Very nice and comfortable rooms. Location easy walking distance from the airport and therefore ideal for early flights. Approx 20 min walk into town. The guesthouse offers great food for diner, so there is no real need to go into town in the evening. Breakfast was amazing, best we had in 16 days Cape Verde. Very much recommended this place!

    This beautiful guesthouse is situated on a hill above town, with beautiful views and a nice breeze. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast is amazing- an extravaganza of fresh fruits, bread, island jams, fruit juices, pancakes, eggs, cereal, fresh goat cheese from a local farm, cake, and yogurt. I am probably forgetting some items. We had dinner with Pipi as well, and it was fabulous. Pipi is a great cook. Everything was delicious. The guesthouse serves meals on a flowery terrace overlooking the bay. You hear the birds sing all day long here. Walking to Sao Filipe took us about 15 min, and we enjoyed being slightly out of the main town. The airport is a 5-10 min walk. I really liked this place and would stay here again.

    really nothing

    Everything was just excellent: clean and well equiped room, wonderful view from the rooftop swimming pool with terras, very friendly owners that were really helpfull and the best breakfast and dinner I had in Fogo. Sao Filipe is a nice town as well. I can highly recommend this place, make sure you stay long enough to enjoy the wonderful view and spend some time in Sao Filipe as well.

    Nothing to not like. Everything was what I wanted and needed.

    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.

    I wish I had more time here. It is a short walk to town but unshaded so bring a hat or umbrella if you are worried about the sun.

    I had a wonderful stay at Pipi's. You can really tell the place is loved. The food was wonderful and genorous and the cocktail was delicious. Wifi worked well in my room and everything was clean and well organized. They helped arrange a collectivo to the caldiera and made me feel very welcomed as a solo traveler. It's very close to the airport and you can walk there in 7 mins.There is a sign on the left as you leave the parking area about 100 m. The road is basic so keep an eye out for the sign so you don't miss it.

    Good breakfast, comfortable and spacious room, good pool, great staff!

    The room needs a mosquito net, fortunately we always travel with one and so we used ours. Air conditioning in the room would be a plus. The hotel provides a fan but air conditioning would be better. At the time we stayed at Pipi's Guesthouse the road was still being built and so at night there was no street lighting, making it difficult to walk into town.

    The staff did their best to make us feel comfortable and went above and beyond. The breakfast is very, very good, to the point that on our second day I asked them not to give us so much food! The swimming pool was great for a dip at the end of a hot day. The scenery is beautiful and the room comfortable. The location is good, it's a 15-minute walk from the town of S.Filipe and a 10-minute walk from the airport. The hotel is in a very quiet area.

    There is no air conditioning but the ventilator in the room was sufficient.

    The house is beautiful and the location is perfect. It is better than the pictures.There's always a breeze from the sea, the pool is refreshing, the view of the volcano and the sea at the same time just stunning. Pipi and her family/team are perfect hosts. We are vegetarians and didn't expect much, then we had three super nice dinners and the most beautiful breakfasts with lots of possibilities. Really hope to go back there some day.
