Hotel Oásis Atlântico Praiamar

Richard, living in Berlin, Germany, 64 years old. I do not recommend this aging hotel. It is no more than a three star or even less hotel. The hotel website and other internet sites have photos of this hotel and the grounds which are a number of years old and no longer actual. The hotel and grounds require a lot of maintenance. BEWARE! I was with my wife from June 26th thru July 13th (17 days) in the superior room 431 oceanview with breakfast and evening dinner included. The room had one armchair with a footstoll, a mini refrigerator, and a safe. Only a small three drawer chest for clothes in the closet. On the balcony was a small wooden table with two wooden chairs. The view from the balcony was really nice. No real sunset. The sun goes down hidden. The saltwater swimming pool was open for daily visitors each day with different colored armbands. Most of the daily visitors were locals with children and music boxes on the pool. LOUD! There were understandably very few tourist guests. There was( only between three and six umbrellas for everyone available. The pool patio is in the need of desperate repair. The breakfast buffet in the hotel Restaurant Prainha was good. Somedays not everything was available. Many locals and often LOUD! The hotel did not provide a dinner buffet in the hotel Restaurant Prainha. Hotel guests with the dinner included were given in the hotel Pamorama Bar a menu to select one from the three main dishes, a soup or salad, and a dessert.The meal was almost always good except a couple of times it was not so good. Other guests could order a la carte. The hotel had many evenings private events at the hotel Snack/Pool Bar. The location is good: walking distance 2 minutes to Prainha Beach, 8 minutes to Quebra Canela Beach, 10 minutes to a bank or car rental, 15 minutes to a beverage and food store, and 30 minutes to the "Plateau". The service and friendliness were at times good and at other times not so good.

No bottled water in the room. Even upon arrival. Running water disconnected on and off for almost 2 days with no explanation. No hot water for the duration of my entire 4 days stay. Breakfast is average. Hotel food and beverage expensive. Cost half to eat or drink in the beach restaurant in front of the hotel.

Huge room

Very disappointed in Management's customer service. Flight cancellations by Cabo Verde Airlines both coming and going required reservation changes. Hotel would not accommodate changes even with 3 and 5 day advance notice--blamed Hotels.com yet refused to work with hotels.com requests to allow changes. They said we must cancell the entire reservation and rebook, but "there are no reservations to book". Result was we had to pay for 6 rooms (3 rooms for 2 nights) on each end of our reservation that we could not use. Will not reserve here again. Also, we paid for a "garden view" which was a hedge and the parking lot and road. We have stayed here numerous times, reserving 3-5 rooms for up to a week. They do not treat returning guests with any consideration. Cannot recommend to others. New hotels being built in the neighborhood. Thank goodness!

24 hour security.

Meget bra beliggenhet. Slitt hotell som trenger generell oppussing. Ok personale som kunne ha vært mere serviceminded. Mange var og dårlig i engelsk.

Like other reviews said, they can't seem to handle the basics. Arrived around noon, was told checkin was at 2pm. Came back at 2pm, but had to wait 30 minutes. Others were waiting much longer and every time Iv was in the lobby there were many people waiting that didn't look very happy. This hotel has potential, but not with the current management.

I recommend this hotel

Nous avons aimé la chambre avec vue sur l'océan, hôtel calme et sympa, nous avons apprécié de pouvoir parler en français et le poisson était bon.

Hotel molto comodo per un breve soggiorno. Il personale è molto cortese. Hotel non è distante dall’aeroporto
