The ocean view and the sound of the waves from casa do sol made it a very relaxing stay. All staff members were very helpful and polite. The only thing that I think needs improvement is the standing shower in the bathroom. It looks a bit old and rusty.

Proximity to the beach is great! Restaurant is only open in the morning- lunch and dinner is by reservation. But when we tried to make a reservation, the cook said no as he is the only cook on the property and he was going home. The property is a good walk away from other places so Dinner was a no go our first night. Also, I find the fake grass tarmac by the pool to be tacky. I felt like I was playing miniature golf- without the golf.

The setting is stunning. The pool is lovely and the black sand beach is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. The staff is friendly and accommodating and the rooms became our home away from home. We enjoyed meeting other guests from around the world. We will be back!

I didn't expect such a wonderful place to stay in Cape Verde. The air conditioning worked well, as well as the internet, electricity, and water pressure. The location is beautiful with palm trees and other tropical plants. We enjoyed walking down to the beach on the stairs, but those who are afraid of heights might not enjoy the view as much. The rooms had little kitchenettes that allowed us to fix ourselves a little bit of food.

Fogo - Cape Verde
Lovely location, very friendly staff - breakfast was delicious. Pool was deep enough for a swim and refreshingly cold. A short walk along the black beach to town, so a good location to explore Fogo

Nice hotel slightly outside of town, with a short walk or easy taxi service into town. At check in we arranged a guide and transportation to take us up the volcano. Staying at Casa Do Sol, climbing the volcano, and being on Fogo was the highlight of the three islands we visited (Praia and Sal being the other two). The room was somewhat simple but clean and large enough for a family of 4. The pool was nice to sit by. There are stairs down to the black sand beach.

This hotel sits on the outside of town & is about a 15 minute to walk from the hotel to town. The rooms are very basic but yet clean. The pool area is okay but you cannot bring any food drinks inside.

Beautiful property overlooking the Atlantic
Casas do Sol is a lovely little tourist village overlooking the ocean, with a stunning location. The island of Brava is visible right before your eyes, and there is an easily accessible black sand beach just a short walk down a series of staircases along the cliff side. The hotel boasts a refreshing pool, but be aware that it’s often full of children from the village whose parents pay to use the pool. The rooms are well-equipped with a kitchenette, but they could use a fresh coat of paint as the walls were very scuffed up. Overall this was a great stay with nice, powerful A/C, a good variety of breakfast options, and in close proximity to both the airport and the center of the village. The staff were excellent and friendly, and even offered to drive me to the airport free of charge. For those arriving, make sure you don’t get taken advantage of by taxi drivers at the airport - pay a maximum of 300 escudos for the ride to this hotel. Also, if you are looking for a tour to Fogo, I went with Qualitur who run daily trips to the volcano for a very reasonable 3000 escudos (compared to a private taxi at 10000).

Du laisser-aller
Le cadre est splendide, au calme face à l'océan. La vue sur l'île voisine de Brava est magnifique. Un peu excentré mais en 15 minutes à pied vous êtes dans le centre de Sao Felipe. L'établissement a sans doute connu des jours meilleurs : le restaurant n'ouvre que pour le petit déjeuner, la piscine n'est pas correctement entretenue, le wifi ne fonctionne pas dans les chambres proches de la piscine. Du laisser-aller alors que cela pourrait être un petit paradis
