COMFORTABLE AND RELAXING

We have stayed at this property before and Lee the owner and Lizy, who manages are very accommodating. When we got there we had problem with water but called Lizy and her husband came and sorted. We did unfortunately have problems again with lack of water on Christmas and Boxing which we were told was due to lack of pressure to the top floor apartment. 1st thing after Boxing Day, we contacted the admin on complex and they sent a workman who fitted a new pump in maintenance block. All sorted. The main problem with this complex appears to be lack of investment. This is down to management as all staff on complex are very good. Some Apartments are sold privately and appear to be left without support making area look tired whilst the resort puts all effort into the block they let at entrance to complex. This apartment still offers a very relaxing break, just remember to bring a smart stick for TV. Lee did inform us but unfortunately we forgot.

No Stress

Well presented apartment on top floor with distance views of the ocean. The balcony is ideal for alfresco dining but as it is in the sun all day is extremely hot. The apartment is well situated in the complex, away from reception but just a short walk to the on-site shop and restaurant plus quite close to the clubhouse for breakfast and catching the free bus to beaches and tow. The apartment was well maintained, only complaint was no lighting in lift but this was beyond the control of apartment owner. Unfortunately whilst we were there the boiler developed a bad leak. We informed Lizy who looked after the apartment and despite it being Christmas Day evening, her husband Stuart came to assist us within 10 minutes. He ensured it was safe and replaced the heater early the following day. We could not expect a better service and a very relaxing holiday.

the property was fine....modern and well equipped.

although I had no problem with the actual apartment..i had a major problem with the resort ...firstly the pool I was told was there and looks amazing in the photos Mr Bateman has on the website.....is in fact empty and has been for 4 yrs.....the pool in the next door complex was disgusting....green with algie and full of leaves....i wouldn't put a fish in it.the resort is like a ghost town....if you want quiet and to see hardly a soul..then it's the place to go. the one supermarket onsite is vastly understocked and overpriced. The walk into Santa Maria is roughly 35mins...so if you have to shop there you will have to can it back..costing around €3 a time....be careful when booking from Mr Bateman he took my money and then informed me the pool was not functioning....knowing full well it wasn't before money changed bank accounts....i was then told the next pool was fine to use but when I checked it out...it was not...green and horrible...in fact I was so disgusted with these findings that I found another apartment and left after 9 days....i has problems finding somewhere else otherwise I would have moved much sooner....i tried to get my money back but to no avail....i had a 12yr old child with me who wanted to swim daily but couldn't....if you are happy to look from the balcony into 2 empty pools....wich you were lead to believe were functioning then fine....but make sure you get the full facts before you book from Mr Bateman....as you will stand no chance of getting reimbursed for the misrepresented resort.....good luck.....you will need it there.

Relaxing stay in a lovely apartment

We had a very relaxing stay in this apartment which was spacious, comfortable, and nicely furnished. The only extra thing we could have possibly wished for would have been to have a parasol on the balcony as it was such a sun trap with sun from breakfast-time right through to the early evening. The pool in our block was out of action (which the owners had warned us about before we booked) but it was only a short stroll to the pool at the block next door, which we had mostly to ourselves! The apartment itself was in a very large and sprawling complex, but it was very quiet as most of the apartments seemed unoccupied. It was a good 5-10 minute walk to the main reception area which was also near the main pool which had a bar and free wi-fi. There was also a small supermarket on site (which we found basic and a little expensive) a couple of restaurants, a bakery and pizzeria, a coffee shop and an ice-cream parlour. There was a BBQ one evening at the clubhouse with live, local music which was enjoyable and excellent value for money. The complex itself was a 5 minute taxi ride from the main resort town of Santa Maria. Santa Maria had a lovely beach with crystal-blue water, not unlike the Caribbean, and there was a reasonable choice of restaurants. The locals there were very friendly too.Transport into Santa Maria from Vila Verde was also provided by a free shuttle bus (passes were available in the apartment). This left at various times throughout the day, but space was limited to about 15 passengers and it was difficult to get on it in the early evening. Taxis were cheap enough however at 3-4 Euros each way. On one day we hired a jeep to explore the attractions on the island which you can see in pretty much half a day. The salt lake is definitely worth a visit and was a highlight on a mostly undeveloped, barren, desert island. The only thing that marred our stay slightly was the very strong wind. When the sun went behind a cloud (which it often did in the afternoons), it felt chilly! Luckily the balcony of the apartment was mostly sheltered from the cold wind, so we often retreated there in the afternoon to soak up the sun. All in all we had an enjoyable and relaxing holiday and I would not hesitate to recommend this apartment if you are after a quiet, relaxing, self-catering holiday.

Very relaxing stay

Very clean apartment, no problems as everything sorted out by Lee (owner) before we left the UK. Ideal location for everything on Sal. Close enough to walk to the beach(15min walk), 3 euros into Santa Maria by taxi. Apartment has everything you need for your stay, 2 spacious bedrooms, 1 large bathroom and 1 shower room. Would definitely recommend it to friends and family, will definitely use again next time we go back to Sal, Cape Verde.

About the host

Hosted by Lee Bateman

I am married, aged 51, and have a professional career. My husband and I have travelled all over the World and when looking for a holiday home to buy, we wanted somewhere that we could get too quickly, without any down-time due to jet lag, and with reasonably price flights. We love the Caribbean and far east but not the flying time, and with many European countries, it is not pleasant in winter - we wanted somewhere we could visit at any time of the year and not have to worry about the weather. Cape Verde is constantly around 25 degrees, has long, sunny days, beautiful sunsets, warm and friendly locals, and a really laid back attitude to life. We first visited Cape Verde in 2004 and we were enchanted by Sal.

Why they chose this property

It's easy to get to, the climate is fantastic, the locals are friendly and welcoming, the food is amazing, the beaches are fantastic, the sea is warm, it's paradise!
Year round Sun, sea, beaches, restaurants, bars, spas, 'Latino-Portuguese-African' blend of music and culture adds to relaxation. Local people and fellow holiday maker’s friendliness. Close proximity to airport is an added 15 mins away. "No Stress" as the Cape Verde motto goes is so true!
Worth flying that extra hour south of the Canaries for more guaranteed sunshine, and far superior beaches. All guests so far agree! (See guest comments)

What makes this property unique

The apartment is very well equipped and feels like a real home from home. Air conditioning is a blessing although there is usually a lovely breeze from the ocean and we enjoy sleeping with the window open instead. We travelled to Cape Verde many times whilst waiting for our apartment to be finished, and found that the standard of some of the local accommodation was very basic and left a lot to be desired. Vila Verde has been built to the more exacting European standards and so not only are the finish and furnishings far superior to elsewhere, but there are lifts, sprinklers, fire alarms, safety rails where needed, etc. The resort is ideally placed close to Santa Maria, but also in a peaceful location.
