Elisabeth “Amazing place with breathtaking view to stay in Santiago”
15 May 2025
The house is so beautiful! The location is great, although the surrounding area (streets) is still under construction so it can be rough terrain to walk through to the main village if you are not able to walk well. Spectaculair view of the sea and the waves crashing on the rocky coast. Breathtaking! House is clean and well maintained. Garden too. Multiple rooms are rented out and you share the kitchen, living room and outside area with swimming pool. The coast in town has a little beach but is more a place where the locals put there fishing boats in the water. Sometimes someone swims there and that is possible but it is dark brown beach sand and quite big waves, so we didn’t swim in the sea there. If you rent a car somewhere you would be able to visit other places in the island from Cidade Velha. Staff very friendly and stay out of your way. We didn’t take the breakfast, but there is the possibility. The caretaker showed us the way to the village and the small supermarket shops for some groceries. There isn’t much available, but Praia is very close by (you can take a local white transportation van for only a euro into Praia on the main road) and it is a very nice place to stay away from the big town. We stayed in multiple places in Santiago and thought this was the most beautiful location to stay in the island.

the breakfast was faboulus! A lot of fresh local fruits and drinks. Mamadou our host was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay a lot, our daughter (7y) loved it as well.The pool was super nice and the view so beautiful. Everything was very clean.

Absolutely everything especially Mamadu, who looks after the house!!! For the very first time I was travelling on my own and I did enjoy every minute! House is absolutely beautiful with amazing views from the patio and sitting area which is pretty much at the swimming pool. There are so many plants around that you feel like in a jungle literally, but that my kind of house. Peace and quiet area ... except for the roosters, but I did love it as well, as brought me back to my childhood when I grow up in the village. And the most important factor why I did love this place so much is that I was on my own, so all house was to myself!!! Fortunately, Mamadu was there any time I did need anything!
Poobah “Stunning location and amazing attentive hosts.”

The accommodation seems to be a bespoke development with separate owner, guest and manager rooms. A very relaxed place to stay with impeccable attention to needs of guests. I booked this accommodation for my wife and I as I wanted to show her the sunset from the beach at Cidade Velha. I had been to Cidade Velha once before, though never stayed. We wanted to explore this historic village. We spent two nights here at Cactus. I was in touch with the host prior to arrival and they were happy to arrange a private taxi from the airport and purchase a bottle of wine and some beer. They set up a small table overlooking the rocks below so we could watch the sunset on our first night. Breakfast was excellent with fresh food and set on a table overlooking the pool. We were lucky as we were the only people staying these two nights. A lovely place and lovely people.
