Location of the hotel is really nice - it is located above the Mindelo and offers stunning view of the town. It is better to have car / taxi to get to the hotel.

A lot of pressure on the water...so we had a nice shower with warm water....it was great taking a shower....

Breakfast was simple but very satisfied with nice omelet

If you love diving and snorkelling, it's a paradise. I got my first open water diver license while staying in Mindelo. And there's always something going on in the city. Full of activities and cultural things to enjoy!

I liked the atmosphere and vibrance of the city.
I liked the atmosphere and vibrance of the city. Everywhere at night is live music. During the day you can walk around town or do an island tour or relax at Laguinha Beach. At night its best you take a taxi everywhere you go, because it can get a little sketchy. The taxi's are 2 euro's per ride.
Don't forget Mindelo is a city with it's own problems. There are a lot of homeless people, junks and other people who want something. Especially when you are a tourist. You have to find your way.
Nice places to eat: Casa Cafe Mindelo, La Pergola, Nautilus (these are all pretty touristic)
Nice cafe: Jazzy Bird
I would say, maximum of 7 days is enough.

Mindelo is a city with a vibe.
Mindelo is a city with a vibe. Its vibrant, full of colours and lovely people. I was there during the annual carnival -- a must see. But Sao Vicente, Mindelo, is a place where you can mingle and jingle at the same time.
I loved the different arts on the streets. And of course Cesera Evoro's house.
Mindelo is full of artists -- musicians most of all.

Mindelo is a place that you can like or not be too sure...
Mindelo is a place that you can like or not be too sure about. I liked it. It was a bit rough edged,, but more interesting and lively than Praia. The exhibit on Cesaria Evora in the museum was interesting. Buy some CDs- you won't regret it! Some of the restaurants are too European and cater to the yachtie crowd- find ones that are more Verdean. The markets are interesting- be sure to go into the fish market. Walk the streets and look at the wall murals and architecture. Go into the artisan area. I wan't there on a weekend- so live music was less easy to find, but in Cafe Mindelo you can listen to it.

It is not too big so it's easy to get around.
It is not too big so it's easy to get around. You have an accessable beach nearby, also great for snorkelling. The best places to eat need some exploring, ask other travellers who have been around for longer. Watch out for pickpockets. Was a major problem now.
This small family-run hotel is on a hill very close to the port of Mindelo and with very nice view.
Catty, the young woman who runs the place, went out of her way to help us figure out whether we needed to do a COVID test prior to our domestic flight (not such a straightforward issue, as we were getting conflicting replies): she accompanied us to the clinic very early in the morning, she checked elsewhere for any alternatives, if need be, and she waited until we made sure everything was settled. We really appreciated her help!
Very big and nice apartment. Just as seen in the pictures. Everything is new and well maintened. Also a big plus is that you have a small supermarket next to the entrance, and also a nice spot to have some breakfast and lunch. It's also pretty easy to walk to the city center of Mindelo. It's like a 15 min walk. Even at night we felt safe. Taxi is like 5 minutes and it never took that long to get one.
Also the people in Cabo Verde are really friendly and helpfull.
The Basic hotel is everything but basic. We had the whole apartment for us with a living room, sleeping room, and a kitchen with a small patio in front of the apartment. The staff was nice and accommodating, and we even left most of our luggage in the hotel and went to Santo Antão for a few days. The breakfast was good, but it could start a little bit earlier in case you have an early flight or a ferry to catch.
The staff was extremely helping, friendly, and accomadating during my stay. It was a short walk to Laginha Beach, grocery store, and restaurants.The breakfast served each morning provided a healthy large selection of options and so delicious. To the entire staff thank you so much for making my stay so comfortable and safe! I will definitely be staying at Oasis Porto Grande Hotel in the future.
Casa Cafe Mindelo is located in the heart of Mindelo within walking distance (with a small bag) from the ferry terminal. The rooms in the hotel show some wear from frequent guest turnover, but are otherwise fine for a short stay. The restaurant is fine for breakfast, but I'd dine elsewhere for dinner. Under booking's old rating system, I would rate this hotel a 7.5/10.
Amazing property, with amazing views. very close to the city center. we had a car so was able to easily get around but with 10-15 minutes walk you can be in downtown Mindelo and beach. Jeffrey is a great host and can assist with any questions you may have. the property has everything you could need inside and I would definitely stay here if i ever return.
The apartment was big, really comfortable bed with all necessary amenities. Liziane and Miss Silvia were very helpful in finding us transportation when we arrived and when we left Mindelo. They made sure we had everything that we needed for the breakfast and helped us book activities in Sao Vicente. I would definitely recommend the place to my friends.
The hotel is a beautiful colonial house with a patio at the center and a small pool.
The staff is welcoming and the kitchen ladies are really nice!
The room was very comfortable and clean.
At the last day, as we were leaving really early they were really kind and prepared us a breakfast sooner than scheduled.
Perfect place for a stay in Mindelo.
The provided breakfast was much enjoyed: fresh fruit platter, very good bread, yoghurt and a good shot of caffeine to get your day kickstarted. All this served on the wonderful rooftop terrace overlooking the bay of Mindelo.
Room is spacious and has a nice, warm shower.
This place is peaceful the rooms are spread apart which provides privacy solid walls, in the room you will have everything you need, excellent customer service,
the food is good here but the location is perfect a lot of great places near by and it a recommendation to anyone coming to são Vicente .
Very big room (47 m2).
Friendly lady at the reception but also during breakfast. I ate a very good cachupa, served with 2 eggs above.
We also appreciate that our delay of one day at arrival was not charged, due to the LUXAIR which couldn’t land at Mindelo airport in time.
Small hotel but clean and very cosy.
Staff very welcoming and kind.
The breakfast was very good and the owner would always ask if we wanted something in particular.
the best staff ever ! great small boutique hotel tastefully furnished and very cute and the best hotel we had on our trip in Cabo Verde ! great breakfast ! book it !
