This is a lovely modern hotel with great views over the water from our balcony, direct steps into the sea.
Pleasant staff, good breakfast, small outdoor pool.
Strangely, there are not that many good hotels in Santiago. But this one is! In my guidebook, the hotel was described as hving 6 rooms and only offering breakfast. It needs to be updated! The hotel has been expanded with two new buildings with great rooms and an amazing restaurant. The best rooms are on the upper floor of the 300-building - so ask for one of those.
Absolutely lovely place by the ocean. It really is like a village, with lots if privacy if you want it. Good snorkeling in the cove (especially when the tide and surf do not wash up too much sand) and short walk to sand beach. Really good breakfast. Only drawback was a rather lengthy check-in and check-out process. The hotel is recommended to have a speedy option for those who prefer fewer lengthy explanations if the facilities and what they consumed (easy to check on one's bill anyway).
Chambre magnifique avec vue sur l’océan. Les équipements sont conformes aux photos. Le personnel de l’hôtel est adorable, serviable et a l’écoute. Je recommande chaleureusement ce lieu magnifique !

Anlage, Personal und die Lage sind sehr gut.
Unsere zweite Nacht im hotel verbrachten wir im Altbau. Das Zimmer ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen und passt nicht zu dem Rest des Hotels.
Bei der Buchung sollte unbedingt darauf hingewiesen werden. Dann hätten wir eins im Neubau (für ca. 13€ mehr) gebucht.
Wir wurden extrem freundlich empfangen und haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Alle Mitarbeiter sind durch ihre sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Art aufgefallen. Insbesondere die Chefin de Service, sowie Kevin stachen mit sehr vorbildlicher Leistung heraus.
Unsere Wünsche wurden alle erfüllt, vom Fön bis zum Bootsausflug.
Die gesamte Anlage ist sehr gepflegt und es wird auf Sauberkeit geachtet.
Das Frühsrück ist excellent, sowie die Gerichte der Mittagskarte.
Unser Zimmer hatte einen unglaubliche tollen Blick aufs Meer und war ebenfalls sehr gepflegt.
Eine Kleinigkeit, die man optimieren könnte, wäre ein Kosmetikspiegel in dem Badzimmer. Dies würde das Rasieren und Schminken erleichtern.
Das Hotel ist absolut empfehlenswert. Vielen Dank für den super Aufenthalt.
Es war ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt im King Fishers. Gutes Essen mit sehr freundlicher Bedienung, mit super Tanzshow am Donnerstagabend. Tolle Aussicht auf Pool & Meer - sehr entspannende Ferien :-)
Sehr schönes Boutique Hotel. Ruhig gelegen, direkt am Meer mit wunderschöner Aussicht. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und professionell.
Das Morgenbuffet ist hervorragend. Leckere à la carte Speisen sind darin inbegriffen. Feine Smoothies, Brote, Müesli. Wir waren rundum sehr zufrieden.
Très beau séjour dans cet hôtel avec une chambre très confort et une magnifique vue du hamac. Le service est parfait, personnel très à l'écoute et au petit soin.
Super séjour dans cet hôtel avec un très grand charme. Le lieu est magnifique et tout l’établissement est d’une grande qualité. Le service et toutes les prestations proposées sont excellentes.

Hôtel très bien situé
Hôtel très bien placé à Tarrafal avec magnifique vue sur la mer et la possibilité de se baigner avec un accès aménagé
La belle plage de Tarrafal est à moins de 10mn à pied en marchant le long de la corniche
Les chambres classiques ont une magnifique petite terrasse avec vue sur la mer par contre leur état est lamentable et hors du temps
Tout est usé, abimé , le sol de la salle de bain est incrusté de saleté , les meubles ont des coups partout, …
Il semblerait que les autres chambres soient en bon état et qu’à partir de mai et jusque décembre celles usagées seront rénovées
Donc il faut mieux attendre 2024 pour réserver celles ci
Le petit déjeuner est merveilleux par contre les repas du soir assez simple et surtout hors de prix par rapport aux autres restaurants dont celui à proximité de l’hôtel avec une superbe vue, par exemple un 1/2 Green maquereau et un simple risotto à 1800CVE et le vin a plus de 3000CVE en Europe ok mais pas au Cap Vert
