Vista Mar, hotel in Tarrafal

Set in Tarrafal, Vista Mar features a terrace, bar, on-site dining, and free WiFi throughout the property. All rooms feature a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a private bathroom.

The location is great, the breakfast terrace is nice. Overall it was okay, but there is definitely room for improvement, especially for this price. The breakfast was nice. They serve a little too much bread for my taste though, but it is abundant and filling. The fruits are a nice touch. More vegetarian options would be better, but you need to watch and ask specifically in Cabo Verde anyway, if you have a special diet. I can really recommend the restaurant "below", where you have several veg options and the staff is super nice 🙂.

    Very cosy little town with nice beach and friendly local people. You can eat very affordable in local bars/restaurants or choose European food in couple of restaurants. The center is quite small, so you walk around easy. Beach is nice and not too much people.

    Amazing beach, friendly people, very nice "city" to walk around. Not much to do there so a couple of days are enough to get to know the place, but can't hurt to stay longer and just relax at the beach that is AMAZING! You can eat at Cegonha, Buzios or at the Vista Mar hotel restaurant next to the beach! Seafood and fish is really fresh.

    IF you are stuck in Praia, do like the locals and go to Tarrafal for the weekend. Its beach beats anything you find in Praia. If you are a diver and conditions are too poor in the south, look for Santiago diving and have a great dive. Even the trip there is amazing with impressive mountains. Take a taxi for 60 Euro's or a bus for 5 euro per person, departing from the Sucopira Market. For the rest, its just a cute little town.

    This is a simple guesthouse but it has everything enough for a pleasant stay. Great location, view of the sea direct from the balcony (take a room with the sea view!) and sleeping with the sound of waves. A few steps to the beach and Tarrafal's central square. Nice, clean and well-ventilated room. Some previous guests complained about lack of glass in windows but we found wooden shutters perfectly OK and even when closed they let a lot of daylight. Breakfast included i.a. fresh papaya and was served on the roof terrace, with great views.

    The location is breathtaking and perfect for hikers who want to stay at the heart of the mountain. The view from the rooms and general areas are to die for, just like in the pictures. Overall the hotel fits quite faithfully to what is represented in the add and on the pictures, and turned out to be our favourite stay in Cabo Verde Staff is quite friendly and willing to help. Since it is quite isolated you will most likely have to depend on food from the hotel for meals, which is fine because they are very well prepared and varied.

    THE place to be in Tarrafal! Where you meet fellow travelers! Central location, close to everything: beach, shops, restaurants, shared taxi station, markets...etc. Staff is extremely helpful, constantly cleaning, fixing, socializing and making sure we have everything we need. Delicious and nutritious breakfast, you get to order how you want your eggs cooked. Spacious, clean, sunny room with a large balcony. Comfortable couches in the common areas. Really enjoyed my stay there!

    My second stay at this immaculate hotel. Staff are all lovely. Smart restaurant. Food and drink very good. Lovely views from rooftop bar / breakfasting area. I'm looking to book my 3rd stay in late April. I'm not surprised that they are extending. A pool would be a welcome addition. Great views of the island of Fogo nearby.
