Description from owner

Description

Santa Maria Residence is a lovely private building of 7 high class 2 bedroom apartments on the beach. It is located towards the quieter eastern side of Santa Maria town. The first floor apartment looks out over Pria Antonia Sousa beach. The apartment has an exceptionally large balcony area and private area outside for sun bathing, eating & relaxing.

Internally the flat is significantly larger than a lot of others. There are 2 rooms of good size, one with a double bed and en suite, one with 2 single beds. There is a generous kitchen area and open plan lounge area which leads out onto the balcony. The flat is air conditioned with three A/C units. Furnished to a high standard and has a well equipped kitchen. Kettle, microwave, hob and oven. Please note that there is no washing machine.

The flat is equipped with its own wifi and internet, which can be topped up locally, there are also smoke alarms (rare in buildings in Cape Verde) and there is a hair drier.

We have also fitted a number of UK standard double plug sockets which makes life easy for UK visitors.

There is also now a newly finished beach bar and pool close to the flat called Fashion/ Buhdda Beach. It is also on trip advisor it looks great.

If further information is required we do have additional info of the area and the flat.

A short walk (150m) across the beach to the beautiful sea & surf for a swim or snorkel or to sit & watch the sun go down with a glass of wine on the balcony. It is a truly lovely location.

Getting around

The island of Sal is not big. I generally walk or if feeling lazy will get a taxi. A taxi from one side of town to the other typically costs 4 euro. Other options are car hire and now more recently bike or electric bike hire.

Response from the owner Hi Ruth, Thank you so much for your great review, We could tell you were a lovely couple at the time of booking. Thanks for for looking after the flat and I am really pleased that you had a great holiday. I do try and keep the flat in good condition and look at it as a second home rather than just a rental flat. We would love to have you back in the future, Best regards David
