Gente d’aqui has an incredible location right next to the beautiful shore, with amazing views. The owner was incredibly helpful and went extra mile to help us organise additional activities. It is possible to get a massage on the property, which with the skilled massager, views, and sounds of waves was probably the best massage I ever had. There is a local bar right around the corner where we had a funny night with some great memories. Praia sete ondas just couple of minutes away with car, and boca do inferno is just couple of walking minutes away. All in all, I definitely recommend Gente d’aqui and love to return one day.

The breakfast was a buffet style and was better and with more variety than most European or American 4+ start hotels. Good quality food, good use of local foods, very attentive service. I liked how they used some of the local chocolate syrups and preserves, as well as fruits and coffee. Excellent view of the sea for a bonus! We also had shows every evening, including a local live band and a youth orchestra playing local music. Both were great! The starts of this hotel however were the staff. The front desk was efficient, they were ready for the check in, they had the bill ready for the checkout, and they were always smiling and eager to help. The bartenders and maids were also friendly and proactive, very proactive, same for the towel person at the pool. And Bruna was fantastic! she was all over the place, talking to guests and helping in any way possible from getting taxis to organizing tours, making dinner reservations at local restaurants, etc. In summary, customer service was in line with or better than most 4+ star hotels in Europe or the USA.

This is the perfect place to chill and be completely connected with nature and the beach. The house is big and nice, with a "private beach" just few steps down from the house. We stayed in a big room with private bathroom. The way to get there is complicated due to the rocky road, but the owners take you from and to the airport with a specific car for that kind of roads; also, they already have a plan to renew the road that will start during the first months of 2024, so that will be no problem anymore :) There is a guard during the night and the owners are very flexible with the transport, they are all super nice. To make the experience even better, we found 5 puppies from one of the two dogs that apparently live in the surroundings of the house, which was just perfect. We will be back!

The space it is very peaceful, really good for people looking for rest. The guest house has one of the most beautiful views of the island in which you can see the stunning bay, cabras island, airport (flights coming and leaving the island) and others. The place it is very close to the best and biggest european supermarket in which you feel like you are in Europe as you can get everything from there. There is one restaurant 20 seconds from the front door, the neighbors are very simpatique, the people working and staying in the guest house are the most lovely I've ever met. In the mornings I was always offered by them plenty coconut, papayas, soursops and mangos which were planted in the garden. I was picked up and dropped off from and to the airport at free cost, which was amazing. The owner any time I needed exchanged some euros and pounds, which was the highest rate that I was able to find in the island.

The breakfast is awesome! It's a buffet style with several options. The staff is nice, kind and always willing to assist you. The hotel location is good with great ocean views and a very nice pool. It has the potential to be an awesome hotel, but the room service needs improvement for the price you pay.

Setting on a bluff with a breathtaking ocean view! Walking down the stairs, there is a private beach and swimming pools. The garden was green, well kept, very relaxing.

From the capital (Sao Tome) , you will have a beautiful , yet challenging road ahead (approximately 2,5 hours, heaviest is Porto Alegre, even for a 4x4). But it is a reason to take it. The lodge is on a beautiful and breathtaking cliff. Amazing views. Driving in to the ecolodge area is just amazing. Pineapples all around, not to mention the rest. The cottage was spik and span and comfy. Different viewsites with well built platforms to do that. Beach within walking distance. Lot of different surfaces (rocks, sand, plants etc.)

The best aparthouse on the island, with virtually private beach and pier. Spacy and cozy, with big saloon and kitchen. Only 15 minutes on foot to the road, where You can catch collective buses. Only 30 minutes on foot to the Airport terminal. Our host was very helpful, he could arrange car transport if You don't like walking.

A rare gem. Small charming hideout at the edge of the world, right next to Sao Tome's best beach that you'll probably have all for yourself. Friendly service, good housekeeping, basic but cosey bungalows, great food. No amenities like hot water and 24/7 electricity, but the privacy and care you get more than make up for it. Oh yeah, the dog really likes to get petted :)
