Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The lady, she is really something, loved that she folds my laundry, she is the soul of this place, that's why she is all over the place with her pictures with clients, I didn’t understand that when I checked in, but now I know.

Situated within 700 metres of Praia Da Laginha and 1.1 km of Torre de Belem, Orietta Residencial features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Mindelo. The property has city and inner courtyard views, and is less than 1 km from Capvertdesign Artesanato. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. I chose Orietta Residencial based on exceptional other reviews, mentioned facilities and friendly atmosphere, and proximity to the Port (for travel to Santo Antao), main streets of Mindelo, and Laginha Beach. In all cases this was a fantastic choice. The Italian couple who run Orietta, and their team, are unbelievably friendly and helpful with a determination to make even the smallest stay perfect. The location is on a quiet street very close to everything, and with an amazing interior courtyard. The top terrace overlooking the pool is a nice relaxed sunny spot for breakfast but also to work and in the evening to have a few drinks during sunset. It is cooler and less rushed and noisy than the rest of Mindelo, away from some of the hassles in town. The room was cool, very tidy, with everything you need, including a marble bathroom with a large, reliable shower. Everything was spotlessly tidy and clean and the terrace area is perfectly designed to allow guests to feel at home and to easily relax. As the hosts also made is possible for me to arrive early (from the airport) and leave late (for the port), I can say with certainty their only focus is the well being of guests. From walking round Mindelo I can also say with certainty they have the best place!

The homestay offers bed linen, towels and housekeeping service.

Popular points of interest near the homestay include Praia Da Laginha, Torre de Belem and Capvertdesign Artesanato. Cesària Evora Airport is 10 km from the property. Fabulous place to stay in Mindelo. Safe neighborhood and close to the center (10 min walk). The actual property is a room with ensuite bathroom inside a bigger apartment where also family lives on the premises. The kitchen and living room are shared. The room is big, clean and comfortable. Great breakfast included in the price. Also for a modest extra charge it's possible to eat dinner/late lunch with the family. This is highly recommended as the most of Mindelo restaurants are closed during daytime and the restaurant food is mostly mediocre anyway. The homemade dinners are freshly prepared and tasty, excellent value for money. The owner Antonio is very helpful and a great source of local advise and knowledge. Many thanks to the owner for helping me with many practical tasks while in Mindelo, it would take me a lot more time and effort to figure it out by myself. Would not hesitate to stay here again. If you are in Mindelo, look no further.
