Barlavento Islands Beach Holidays

Accommodation is very dated. Website photos do not reflect the hotel. Many of the properties on the resort are old and dilapidated. Wifi in room was the worst I have experienced in the last 10 years and we was lied to about this. For example you will have Wi-Fi on the sofa but less than three metres away you can’t use Wi-Fi in the bed to make a phone call. It was that bad. It was explained as a blackout across Cape Verde however good internet in bar area and other parts of Sal. Friendly and helpful staff especially Duke and the restaurant and bar staff. Free shuttle to Santa Maria twice a day was useful.

Hello, I recently stayed at Hotel Tourreg and overall I truly enjoyed my time there. However, I do need to share a concern regarding the dining room. During my meals, I noticed a large number of flies on the tables and even on the food itself. I personally had to remove many flies from my meals, which was very unpleasant. I also spoke with a few employees about this issue, but the response I received was that it is “normal” to have flies around the food. I understand that insects can sometimes be difficult to control, but I believe more effort could be made to maintain hygiene in the dining area. This would greatly improve the guest experience and ensure a higher standard of cleanliness. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Perfet to relax alone or with family. The staff is amazing

If you're thinking of staying here, I would say DON'T. This hotel is NOT 5* nor is it a 4. I would say it's a 3 at a push. We arrived just after 3pm and the room was not ready. The initial room we were given was 513 and the air conditioning did not work. That night, I suffered 100 mosquito bites. No joke. Not even lying. We went down to reception to ask if they would look at the a/c and they sent a maintenance man up to have a look. He said it was fixed when he changed it from 'cool' to 'fan'. This did not work and the room was still like a sauna. Asked again for someone to look at the unit where this time, 2 men turned up and said it needed gas. It doesn't need gas, it needs a whole new system! Wasn't happy as this a/c still wasn't working either so they upgraded us to a villa. The 1st villa, guess what? The a/c didn't workl! Finally, room 433 had working a/c. This room was bigger but it also came with ants in the bed. I get this is a tropical country but really?? The lamps didn't work, the TV had 4 channels and the batteries in thee rmotes had seen better days. I've ve come away lost weight, but also going home with diabetes and high blood pressure.
