The units are fitted with a kettle, a flat-screen TV and free WiFi, while selected rooms will provide you with a balcony and some have garden views. At the guest house, the units come with bed linen and towels. Due to the delay of the boat from Boa Vista I arrived really late (2AM), but still the host was waiting at the door so I could check in efficiently and without trouble. Everything was very clean, I can recommend it ! Also the price was very fair compared to other options.

Guests at the guest house will be able to enjoy activities in and around Santa Maria, like hiking and walking tours. If you would like to discover the area, snorkelling, cycling and fishing are possible in the surroundings and New Rooftop Gem with stunning Oceanview can arrange a bicycle rental service. Rating: 5 Star Review: My wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the new rooftop penthouse with an enchanting oceanview in Santa Maria. From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in for a truly magical experience. First and foremost, we would like to express our deepest gratitude towards the warmhearted and incredibly supportive owner, Mr. Robert. He went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was nothing short of exceptional. His vast knowledge of the city and his extensive connections truly make him the go-to person for all things Santa Maria. Whatever we needed, Mr. Robert was there to assist us, proving that he is indeed the man who knows everything and everyone in town. Thanks to Mr. Robert, we were introduced to the phenomenal Kiteschool "Surf Shop Cabo Verde." Our experience there was nothing short of fantastic. The professionalism of the instructors and their passion for kitesurfing were evident from the very beginning. Within just two days, my wife and I were able to kite almost independently, which was an absolute thrill. We are incredibly thankful to Mr. Robert for connecting us to this amazing kiteschool and making this experience possible. By the way, it is one of the best kiteschool in Santa Maria. Please book in advance. Not only did Mr. Robert provide us with an incredible kitesurfing adventure, but he also recommended the best restaurants in town. And believe us when we say he was spot on! Each and every dining experience was a culinary delight, leaving our taste buds in awe. Mr. Robert's knowledge of the local dining scene truly enhanced our stay, and we'd highly recommend following his recommendations for an unforgettable gastronomic journey. Now, let's talk about the penthouse. This place is simply the best with an incredible view. The moment we stepped onto the rooftop terrace, we were greeted by an awe-inspiring panorama of the ocean that left us speechless.
