Santa Cruz Hotel with Pool

"Property has started to show its age, and the mattress was very uncomfortable. Friendly staff."

"I was a little disappointed when I thought the room I booked had an ocean view and it did not. The building is nice, clean and staffs were friendly and courteous. Tiles on floor need to be replaced since some had cracks in them and some parts of the building can use some fresh paints. The Buffett breakfast was good."

"Fine but rather bland hotel outside of Praia. OK if you have a flight out or want to explore the island of Santiago, but beyond that, NOT a holiday destination given the price. Santiago is a great Island to explore."

"My stay in Praia was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel genuinely welcomed—professional, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. The hotel itself was spotless and well-maintained. My room was spacious, comfortable, and offered beautiful views that made every morning feel special. The bed was extremely comfortable, and everything—from the air conditioning to the Wi-Fi—worked perfectly throughout my stay. One of the highlights was the location. Being in Praia, I had easy access to key areas, restaurants, and the beach, which made exploring the city very convenient. The food was also impressive, with a great variety of options and consistently high quality. Breakfast each morning was fresh and satisfying, setting the tone for the day. What truly stood out, though, was the level of service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed, making my experience both relaxing and memorable. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Praia and would not hesitate to stay here again. A top-tier experience from start to finish."

"Spotless room, helpful staff, wonderful breakfast."
