In Santa Maria, Isla de Sal, Cabo Verde, probably the best place for kitesurfing during the month of February, it is not easy to find a Hotel that is not massive being good. Dunas de Sal, is not a sea front, but is very near and you see the sea from most of the rooms. The place is nice, well... More

We stayed at the Dunas de Sal for 7 nights in early January. The hotel was spotless, indeed the pool cleaner had some sort of obsessive compulsive disorder, and seemed horrified when a leaf sullied his pool! Similarly, the room was spotless. However, into every life a drop of rain must fall, and it certainly did- in buckets! We had... More

To put is first: I do recommend this hotel, although my review may not start like this ... Horror on reservation: I did my reservation at their homepage and found a suitable slot of 2 weeks availability, so I did my reservation online. No response for 4 days, so I was pretty uncertain whether I should book my flight, then... More

I recently stayed at the Dunas De Sal hotel and was very impressed with the hotel. It is about 10 minutes walk from Santa Maria so you are far enough out of the (small) town that the hotel has a very private feeling about it. The hotel is only 2 stories and all rooms face into the swimming pool which... More

Dunas de Sal is a very good hotel and fully satisfies the requirements of a 4 star hotel. The personal was very friendly, smiling and ready to answer any question you could ask. The hotel is located around 10 walking minutes away from Santa Maria (thanks god since there are less locals trying to sell you all those souvenirs 5... More

First things first. Avoid Sal and Santa Maria at all cost: there are many beautiful things to see and do in Cabo Verde (Fogo and Santo Antão being two superb highlights). Sal is certainly not the best place to spend both your time and money. Dunas de Sal is a four star hotel (on paper) in a zero star village... More

We have just spent a week at this beautiful hotel, and it was fantastic. The guests are mainly couples, friends, and single travellers (no children) which makes it ideal for a romantic or relaxing vacation. The online pictures don't do the hotel justice - it actually looks better in real life. The staff is very friendly and the food is... More

The architecture and design are very simple, but nice and functional. Green and beautiful garden with pool is surrounded by the hotel building. All the rooms are faced to the garden and pool. Rooms are furnished only with a bed (quite hard twin bed with two beds pushed together), two wall-mounted night table, desk table with one chair and minibar,... More
