Sal Hotel Reviews

5/5 Excellent

"It was a great experience with very kind and friendly staf and excellent services. Ideal location with beach just minutes away"

A verified traveller stayed at Hilton Cabo Verde Sal Resort

Posted 12 days ago

5/5 Excellent

"It’s a great hotel, excellent value for the money. Hotel is located very central and doesn’t have a private beach, what means that at the beach club anyone can come and take sun loungers as long as they pay, which is fine just something to be aware of if you are looking for a private beach. Hotel is really clean everywhere and there is staff making sure it’s staying that way. Massage at the hotel is very good too. Buffer breakfast is average which is expected. Overall it’s a great hotel. It also have a guest pick up option from the airport which is great priced. "
