Guest Reviews
- Ramilton (10/5): Gran personal todo genial!!! - Atencion magnifica, nos surgio un priblema con el barco y aceptaron hacernos una candelavion gratuita como algo exepcional lo cual agradecimos mucho, gran empatia! Por lo que llegamos a ver un lugar magnifico!
- Szymon (8/5): -
- Florence (8/5): Super séjour - Personnel accueillant et sympathique
Logement propre
Terrasse avec vue pour le petit déjeuner
Bon emplacement au centre du village Literie un peu dure
- Jean Luc (4/5): -
- massimiliano (7/5): - La posizione è molto buona, una buona colazione inclusa anche se non abbondante, e il ristorante ha la premura di diversificare il menù se si sceglie di mangiare li più di una volta. Lo staff è davvero gentile e accogliente, ti fa sentire a casa! Stanza spartana, non curatissima, situata in un piano semi interrato, senza luce naturale.
- Ismenia (7/5): - Preço razoável. Terraço muito agradável onde se pode beber uma bebida ou tomar as refeições.
Pequeno almoço bom, com pão, leite, café, sumo, ovos e fruta. Quarto básico. Porta do quarto com vidros, permitindo entrada de luz e barulhos do corredor. Insonorização péssima, ouve-se os sons do quarto em frente como se fosse no nosso.
- valerie (8/5): - Transfert en colectivo appréciable et bien organisé. Bon repas, accueil professionnel, sympa. Wifi pas accessible depuis la chambre, pas de fenêtre vers l'extérieur.
- Isabelle (8/5): - L’accueil et le personnel qui a tout fait pour rendre notre séjour agréable. Belle terrasse pour les repas. Nous avons adoré Tarrafal! La chambre du bas est un peu sombre sans vraie fenêtre mais nous avons pu changer en cours de séjour pour une chambre au premier, merci encore pour votre flexibilité!
- Tangi (10/5): - The guy running the place is very nice and helpful.
The location is perfect. The soundproofing is non existent.
- Reisevermittlung Wohlers (4/5): - Zimmer war eine Katastrophe!
- Noami (7/5): -

- François1978 (8/5): -
- Kévin (9/5): - Bon accueil. Bonne communication. Le repas du soir en terrasse était délicieux. Chambre confortable. Peut être un peu bruyant, en donnant sur la rue pour notre part. La nuit fut néanmoins très bonne.
- Kevin (8/5): -
- catherine (8/5): -
- Mélanie (7/5): Escale vacances - Le repas du soir avec poisson frais: trop bon!
L emplacement au bord de la mer, tout proche de la plage!
Hôte très accueillant et très gentil, ainsi que le personnel! Les lits: matelas très inconfortables, on sentait les ressorts! Pas très bien dormi du coup!
- Axel (9/5): Boa opção para conhecer Tarrafal - Quarto bastante bom, camas boas, casa de banho com tudo necessário, WFi bom, pequeno almoço bom e foi possível também pedir jantar, que era muito saboroso e bastante comida fresca. Não todos os quartos têm uma boa vista, mas quem precisa de uma boa vista do quarto quando tem uma boa vista linda na aldeia toda. O pessoal é muito simpático!
- Catherine (7/5): - La restauration La chambre était très petite, il n'y avait pas de porte pour séparer la chambre de la salle de bains et des toilettes.
- herve (8/5): Recommandé -
- Alessandro (9/5): -
- Kron Yves (8/5): - C'etait très bien mais un peu cher m'a t il semble
- Beatrice (10/5): - On a apprécié le personnel sympathique et le propriétaire qui nous a aidé à organiser notre séjour.
- Jacques (9/5): -
- Violaine (8/5): magnifique, endroit sauvage, pourrait donner un peu plus de renseignements sur les ballade aux alentours - l’emplacement, l’accueil, efficacité notamment pour réserver les aluguer, le sourire manque de rangement (étagère ?),
- martine (8/5): -
- Weronika (9/5): - I liked the location, it was close to everything The room was dark and had an opening in the bathroom, you could hear everything from outside.
- Miranda (9/5): -
- Rene (10/5): - Sehr netter Chef und auch das Personal
- Valerie (6/5): - Une équipe accueillante, p'tit dej et repas au petits soins.demandez plutôt l'étage. Le manque d'insonorisation de la porte au RDC.
- andre (8/5): - La gentillesse et la disponibilité du personnel, les repas étaient bon et assez variés, ce qui est rare pour le souligner
- Pedro (2/5): -
- Clara (10/5): Fantastic place to spend the night in Tarrafal de Monte Trigo - Everyone was very nice and welcoming, we felt right at home and perfectly comfortable.

- Anna (8/5): -
- Pérez (6/5): -
- Radek (9/5): - Příjemný, ochotný a profesionální hostitel, který dobře mluví anglicky. Snídaně byla chutná a z restaurace na střeše je pěkný výhled na moře. Pokoj byl uklizený. Ráno trochu rušil hluk z ulice, postele byly délkou trochu kratší (pro mě stačilo akorát, ale pro vyšší lidi by mohly být krátké).
- Fabien (8/5): -
- Inês (8/5): The place is good, the food is delicious, some staff are really great, but don’t book a boat with them! - The room was good, the food was delicious and the staff were very nice and helpful, specially Alvaro, he did everything he could for us. We booked a boat to come back from Monte Trigo to Tarrafal with them and it didn’t go well. First the price was fixed, 5000 escudos per boat. Then we talked with another couple to share the costs with them and suddenly the price changed and it was 3000 per couple, so total of 6000. Because we had no better alternative we accepted it. Obviously the skipper was a relative of the staff (the brother of the owner, I think) and he was quite rude since the beginning. He was there at the arranged time and when we jumped on board, he said we could leave the bags in a compartment of the boat. We did put the bags, but I was afraid that the compartment had water in the bottom so I decided to double check with him and he was very arrogant saying that there was no water. When we arrived on land, my bag was submerged in water and all my electronics were destroyed. He just simply apologised and I left there with a big prejudice (more than 100€).
- jacques (8/5): Wooww in fine Tarrafal - Great (included) breakfast !! interrupted water supply; twice during our 3-days stay
- sara (10/5): - Regentado por locales!!!!
- denise (8/5): - Le jeune homme qui nous a accueilli parle très bien français et nous a donné de bonnes infos
Le diner au restaurant est très bien
Il y a des lampes de chevet pour lire le soir
L'aluguer nous pose et nous reprend juste devant la posada qui est bien située près de la plage et des bars La chambre est plutôt petite et le matelas un peu trop dur pour moi
- Luis (8/5): - La atencion y un buen desayuno
- Sina (10/5): Preis-/Leistungsvergältnis ist optimal! - Super Lage, tolle Terrasse mit Meerblick. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Betreiber. Gutes Essen mit Vorspeise (Suppe) inklusive.
- Hélène (10/5): -
- Collin (10/5): Awesome - Awesome staff. Awesome food. Awesome all around. Nothing
- philippe (8/5): Belle découverte - L’accueil et le personnel
La personne qui accueille parle très bien le français
Il est très gentil et il est aux petits soins pour les vacanciers
- Georges (5/5): très moyen - Bof Petit déjeuner imposé de
- Richter (1/5): Prix abusif. Je n'étais pas bien du tout ! - Rien . Personnel désagréable, non souriante. Tout était trop demandé. La fenêtre avec vue sur un mur ! Wi-Fi pas disponible correctement. Je ne pouvais pas aller aux toilettes ,car je touchais avec mes genoux au mur . Pas de chaise , rien pour déposer ses affaires ou la valise .
- Nédio (8/5): - O alojamento era confortável e bem localizado. O pequeno-almoço era agradável, com boa variedade e qualidade. Experiência positiva.
- Marie (8/5): Super - Super séjour
Dommage que notre chambre n avait pas de fenêtre.
Petit détail … quand on va là-bas ce n est pas pour rester dans la chambre😅
- Sabina (2/5): Skulle inte rekommendera någon att sova där. Men gå dit och ät lunch. - Trevlig ägare, god mat Fruktansvärd säng, aldrig sovit mer obekvämt. Stenhård och fjädrarna stack in i kroppen.
Väldigt dunkelt och badrummet var öppet ut i korridoren.
- Ana C. (9/5): - Gostámos muito da nossa estadia no Tarrafal, a pousada é bem localizada e confortável. O pequeno almoço é bom e também jantámos uma noite e gostámos muito! Agradecemos também ao Álvaro que nos recebeu muito bem e foi sempre muito prestável e bom profissional! Nada.
- Serge (8/5): Un hébergement idéal au cœur de ce petit village si attachant - La gentillesse du personnel Rien
- Gaëlle (9/5): - Supers repas
- Aroa (8/5): - Very welcoming staff. We left at 6am and they made us breakfast at that time.
Great location, comfortable beds. Small room, the bathroom and the bedroom is separated only by a curtain, no door.
- Schurmans (7/5): - Quiet, friendly, clean, in the center of Tarrafal. The staff didn’t understand english nor french very well. Only the boss but he was not there when we arrived.
- Blin (8/5): - Pension bien située avec une terrasse sur le toit offrant une très belle vue pour le dîner. Chambre au RDC avec salle de bain partagée.
Nous avons très bien mangé. Pensez à demander le prix avant le repas car nous avons été un peu surpris: entrée plat dessert avec poissons entiers et le prix qui avec !
- Claudie (10/5): -
- Ana (10/5): - Da simpatia do staff, bom pequeno almoço, sítio surpreendente.
- luc (10/5): Conforme à mes attentes et aide à l'organisation de mon séjour sur place . Merci. - La prestation pas de commentaires, mes remarques ont été faites directement au propriétaire.
- Lavinia (7/5): - Sehr bemühtes Personal und tolle Lage Kommt aufs Wetter an, es kann ohne Klimaanlage sehr warm im Zimmer sein, da Durchzug nur bedingt möglich ist.
- Aurelie (6/5): - La propreté
formule dîner très pratique la chambre se trouvait au sous-sol, pas de lumière, et un manque d'aération.
qualité du couchage à revoir.
- Marie-Claude (10/5): - L'hôtel est bien situé pour le départ des balades.
L'accueil du personnel, aux petits soins pour renseigner et organiser.
Surtout la cuisine de la sympathique Preta est délicieuse, prenez vos repas du soir à la pension.!
Même si les chambres sont petites elles sont très propres .
Nous vous recommandons Rien
- Philipp (8/5): - Unbedingt die Kochkünste am Abend geniessen.
Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.
Frühstück ist okay. Bei mir hat der Spiegel im Badezimmer gefehlt. Der kommt sicherlich wieder. Kein Tablar oder Schrank.
- Giovanni Battista (8/5): Buono - Un buon compromesso per 2 giorni di visita le strutture intorno dai ristoranti ai bar vanno migliorati, incluse le strade
- kirsten (7/5): - Centraal gelegen en het ontbijt en diner waren goed en met aandacht verzorgd. Een raam in de kamer, nu alleen een hoog geplaatst raam . Hierdoor geen uitzicht naar buiten en kamer hierdoor donker
- Alain (7/5): - Bonjour emplacement dans Tarafal. La terrasse très agréable Pas de fenêtre directe sur l'extérieur, seulement une petite fenêtre dans la salle d'eau.
- thibaut (6/5): - Accueil sympa et bonne emplacement. Pas de fenêtre rapport qualité prix pas la du tout.
- Michel (8/5): - Les bons repas sur le roof top face à la mer et le sens du service d'Alvaro. Une chambre peu ventilée
- Joel (9/5): - Très bien
- olga reb (9/5): - Llegar allí requiere tiempo y un coche todoterreno pero los paisajes son una maravilla. Es un pequeño paraíso perdido. Nos hicieron una cena muy rica y el desayuno también muy a gusto en la terraza que tienen en la última planta. Hacía mucho calor, aunque tiene un ventilador, costaba un poco dormir.
- Jérôme (9/5): -
- Elisabet (7/5): -
- baptiste (10/5): 10/10 - Le personnel très sympathique, très agréable de discuter avec Alvaro, la propriétaire également au petit soin. Belle terrasse pour manger, boire un verre. Je recommande, top
- Frederick (3/5): -
- PASCAL (6/5): - Emplacement au cœur de Tarrafal
Repas avec gratin de pommes de terre excellent Bruyant
Chambres (2) très rudimentaires, encore plus au regard du prix
- laurence (8/5): Très bon rapport qualité prix -
- Amelie (10/5): -
- NADIA (3/5): - Accueil Séjour difficile dans cette chambre : le matelas était extrêmement dur, et un bruit constant de musique en pleine nuit – notamment à 2h du matin – a rendu le repos quasi impossible. Difficile de s’y sentir à l’aise.
Côté transport, j’étais à Ribeira Grande et j’ai pris un aluguer à 7h pour Porto Novo. Une fois arrivé, j’ai attendu 3h30 car seulement deux aluguers partaient vers Tarrafal… au même moment. Le lendemain matin, un seul aluguer était disponible, à 6h du matin. Un vrai parcours du combattant !
- sebastien (6/5): - L'emplacement au centre du village. Fourmis très présentes dans les chambres
- Matthew (8/5): Very good - I liked it. I paid more than I would have at other places but also, it’s at the end of the road so this has to be expected. Breakfast was excellent and the ladies running the place were lovely. I was really hot at night but it’s June so what can you expect. I’d definitely recommend it and sleep with the windows open next time. The view from the terrace is superb
- Vos (10/5): Exceptional - Nice and clean room, really tasty diner (fish) as well!
- Alex (9/5): Good price/quality rate - Simple but comfortable hotel with good price/quality rate.
- Kristiina (8/5): Very good - Extra delicious dinner, very helpful host Alvaro Unfortunately the wifi didn’t reach our room
- Katie (8/5): Very good - Alvaro and the staff were so helpful and welcoming and the food was incredible.Thank you as well for organising us a take away breakfast so we could make the 6am alugar.
- Andrei (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation exactly as in pictures, 10/1 Mbps wifi, the host spoke great English, and the dinner was very very tasty.
- Divyanshu (9/5): Superb - Great location. Clean rooms and warm hosts. The place has a nice terrace to relax on with drink from the bar. Don't forget to ask for some aged grogue or ponche.
- Oliver (9/5): Superb - The host was very friendly and helpful Beds a bit too hard for me
- Jaime (8/5): Very good -
- Familyplanettour (10/5): Exceptional - Location is good, just minutes from stores and 10 minute walk to beach. Rooms clean and great breakfast offered on the roof. Staff can help with organizing onward transport. Facilites are brand new.
- Matthias (10/5): Exceptional - Most helpful staff. Very kind and speaking great English. There was very loud music from the public area next to the place Friday and Saturday night. But that's just me old geezer vs. the partying youth...
- David (8/5): Basic but good value, well located, friendly staff - Good breakfast, very friendly staff!
Room was very clean. Good bed, firm mattress.
5-10 min walk to restaurants and beach. Room a bit too wam at night with only a small window but there was a ventilator.
Large opening to the corridor in bathroom which allows climbing through, no safe in the room.
Several cocks nearby crow all night, bring ear plugs.
- Azzolini (8/5): Very good - The receptionist guy was very very gentle with us and we appreciate this a lot!
The bed was very comfortable, the breakfast was great and the wifi in the terrace was very good!
- Rachel (8/5): Good value - Great location in Tarrafal. Clean rooms with shared bathroom. This is a great place to stay and the staff are exceptional. Inclined to be a bit noisy
- Itchy_feet (10/5): Great place to stay in pretty Tarrafal - Our room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was included and served on the roof. WiFi signal was very strong and reliable. The shared bathroom was very clean. Free parking around the corner for our rental car. Staff was very nice. Nothing...this was a great place to stay in Tarrafal.
- Eckardt (7/5): Good - Nice roof terrace, friendly staff, good breakfast & dinner We had the room facing a concrete wall, wouldn‘t recommend that one for more than a night
- Cristovão (6/5): Pleasant -
