Hotel Santa Maria dengan Sarapan

We stayed for 1 week end of August, beautiful hotel. Room had 2 double beds, large seating area and balcony, air con and 2 large water added daily. Bathroom was big and spacious, Toiletries offered are Crabtree and really lovely. We ate once in the buffet restaurant which was good but the best is the Bounty Beach Club, amazing food in a beautiful setting. Beautiful hotel with exceptional service.

After a long flight we arrived to find our room was not ready, we had to wait 3 hours which is really unacceptable as they knew what time we were arriving. Other than that we had a fabulous holiday. Room was clean, bed comfy. Clean towels every day. Pool area was clean, pool bar had plenty of food and drinks available from morning till 8pm. Restaurant had a good variety of food available. I would recommend this hotel and even though it was a bit far from the beach and town I would visit again.

As per usual RIU have done a great job, massive hotel and beach with plenty of room for hundreds of beach loungers. The room was excellent and very well looked after by the cleaning staff - 5 Stars. Quality of food at all of the restaurant's was very good - no complaints and easy to book a table or just use the buffet. There were a few negatives - the evening entertainment was not up to the standard we have been used to at large 5 star RIU hotels. Flies are a big issue in and around November and although it is a natural phenomenon and RIU are not responsible we will not be visiting Capo Verde again at that time of year! The town of Santa Maria is a short drive from the hotel and in my view a waste of time and money, a great deal of work needs to be done to bring the town and amenities up to a respectable standard. The highlight of our holiday was just along the beach at the Turtle reserve, fantastic work by the people there helping and saving the lives of newly hatched turtles - definitely worth a visit.

Super Service, viel Sportangebot, toller Stand! Kann ich jedem nur empfehlen.

The official rating of this hotel is 4 stars, and with a bit of cosmetic upgrading and better staffing in the kitchen, I could see it reaching that level (it seems like it may have once been a real 4 star). As it was, the room quality itself was more 3 star, and the outside area was 4 stars. We had a 'deluxe sea view' with no terrace. There was lots of rough paintwork and lack of maintenance on the small details in the rooms, but overall it was fine, with a huge comfy bed and a nice shower and a lovely view out the window. Unfortunately the entry was at the street side of the hotel which was our smoking area, and that view was just the dirt road and some houses. Overall we would stay here again as the room was fine, the staff were great, the pool area was amazing, nobody had any screaming kids (very quiet and peaceful, great for couples) and while the beach required stepping over rocks, it also had the best snorkeling area with the most fish. Another sandy beach with less fish and two beach bars is a 3 minute walk away, and the main ***** with the main beach is a 10 minute walk (that one is useless for snorkeling but great for swimming). Besides snorkeling, it's also a preferred spot for wind surfing. We happened to try the hotel restaurant on a really bad night apparently, we waited an hour for our seafood paella which was average quality but double the price of the ***** restaurants. However, according to the other patrons who did all inclusive, the service was usually much faster. and the food usually much better. We did also have burgers for lunch one day, and those were expensive but very nice. Breakfast was included in our stay and it had an extensive and delicious continental selection, plus hot eggs and bacon on order, always very fast. The staff were super attentive and completely on their game, absolutely fantastic service. We got a great deal on a package holiday with LoveHolidays, so for the price we were very happy and would definitely stay again.

Great Hotel .... Everything you need at this hotel .... staff are very friendly and so helpful They do an amazing job daily The restaurant- food was amazing. All cooked fresh and some foods cooked in front of you So much choice .... cannot fault the food at all - delicious Rooms - just one small criticism- they need an update and a lick of paint ! But apart from that the rooms are very spacious and the beds are so comfy I would also like to say the cleaners do an amazing job daily cleaning the rooms - thanks guys and loved the little love heart and fan made from the sheet on my bed - it's the little touches that make you smile 😃 All in all a great hotel - thoroughly enjoy my stay at Funana and will definitely return All staff do an amazing job daily so thanks guys you made my holiday 👌 My first visit to Cape Verde and certainly will not be the last

Have stayed before and gave in 4* Was bit disappointed this time Paid extra for pool view as last time was kept awake by Pirate disco. Were initially shown to top floor room directly opposite disco. We asked to be moved and were given a room by the pool. This smelt of damp and there was a large patch of mould on the wall. The toilet leaked water from the back. There was not hot water for the full week. The sunbeds were all reserved by 8am-luckily few guests knew about the upstairs terrace which was great. Breakfast was very good but chaotic constantly running out of everything. The evening meal was ok but service was terribly slow-the poor water was rushed off his feet doing everything. We ate out the other nights and there are loads of good restaurants in 2 mins walk Its basically a decent value hotel with great staff and a fab location 3mins from pier and beach--would I go again ?? --probably. If you want 5* you can probably get in an AI out of town --but you will miss so much.

Super clean hotel with the most amazing staff. Breakfast didnt have a lot of vegetarian options but it was okay. The hotel is situated in a local area which was amazing. Thank you for making our stay amazing! Hope to see you again in the future! 3 girls from Holland :)

Points positifs : chambre équipée propre, petit déjeuner (buffet), horaires du minibus pour Santa Maria+ Ponta Preta, proximité avec les plages, plusieurs piscines, Points négatifs : manque de vie nocturne et animations, l’espace sport libre extérieur à refaire, + une réceptionniste très désagréable et qui ne voulait rien entendre (ne voulait pas que nous payons le montant de la taxe de séjour indiquée sur notre réservation mais bonne gestion du service client Trip)
