We stayed in the resort for 2 weeks looking carefully before buying. We loved the position and the feeling of light and airiness. At the edge of a West facing bay, with wonderful ocean views and beautiful sunsets, you can hear the ocean and watch the colour of the water change from turquoise to dark blue to grey to glistening white under the moonlight, to jet black from your holiday home. Most guests spend all their time outdoors, and enjoy sunbathing on the roof terrace overlooking the bay (teak chaise longues with mattresses). Wake up to the smell of fresh baked bread, listen to the rustling of the palm fronds. Have breakfast on east balcony, lunch on the roof terrace, sundowners and dinner in the west facing outdoor dining room.
With small sandy beaches or coves to choose from, your closest one is about 100 yards. Space to store your sport equipment. Car parking outside.
With windows, mahogany shutters and balconies/patios on three sides, and insect netting throughout, the villa is kept at the right temperature, day and night by natural environmentally friendly methods. This part of the resort was built by a Cape Verde company nine years ago, with a local architect . They installed the facilities needed for resort living in an Atlantic island, with stand-by electricity generator, additional water storage, roads, lighting, security as well as properties specifically adapted to the local climate. About the owners. We have been letting this villa for over 4 years, and despite this being well furnished when we purchased from careful Germans, we have shipped out many extras such as futons from Notting Hill, teak garden furniture, solid wood furniture, quality bedding, beach towels, Denby china and lots of kitchen implements. Insect netting on all windows, and shutters on all windows apart from bathrooms. We travel frequently to all Cape Verde Islands.
Huge inventory upon request. Sal is great all year, for winter sunshine holidays, and in the summer too.
