Excellent, comfortable and cosy hotel. All major sites and the beach are within walking distance. The staff were very nice and welcoming throughout our stay. The jacuzzi on the rooftop at the bar are a major plus. Nice way to enjoy Mindelo weather in a relaxing way.

My partner and I stayed at Casa Da Djedja for 3 nights when landing in Sao Vicente and liked it so much that we booked it for another 2 nights when coming back to Mindelo to take our flight as we returned from Santa Antao. The place is an island of paradise in Mindelo, with its elegant architecture, white walls and beautiful little garden in the common area. The staff is absolutely lovely and helped us find our bearings on the island.

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.
The experience has been great!!! The apartment is in the city centre. The apartment is very confortable and near every interested places in Mindelo. Jordy is a perfect guide and host. I visited with him some places with music and cultural life. He is a tour guide in Santo Antao and I hired him for two days on the island. The experience has been wonderful. He knows Santo antao and Sao Vicente very well. I recommend you stay in this apartment, you will live a Cape Verde different from the typical tourist one.
Very friendly and professional staff, which you notice from arrival till departure. My bag was delayed and they were checking in with me on that regularly, see if they could help, and point me to nearby shops, restaurants, atms. The place is beautiful as well and very peaceful, just a bit away from the busy Mindelo with an inside courtyard where you can relax, read a book.
Walking distance from everything you need in Mindelo.
Gorgeous view of Mindelo, Monte Cara, and Santo Antao -- whole apartment is worth it just for the view from the balcony. Great to have three bedrooms for our group to have privacy, but still gather together. Great spot for Carnival -- about 10 minute walk from the beach, 15 minutes from Praca Nova (CNAD and Carnaval parades), grocery store on the first floor, and taxis passing by when you need one.
I like that the Hotel is family run and the great hospitality the family has. It was so nice having breakfast there in the morning, it is small and makes you talk with the other people staying there. The beds are comfortable, air conditioning helps. The location is perfect because you are between the beach and the city center. There are some really nice restaurants in the direct area also
Normally we don’t write reviews but for this hotel we feel we had to do because it was such a great experience! We came twice and we will never forget the kindness of the people here. The best breakfast we had in 4 weeks Cabo Verde. Room was spacious, the most comfortable bed we had! Price/quality is more than a 10! Congrats to the staff and wish you all the best for the future!
The location of the hotel, the pool area and scenery was magnificent. It was easily accessible to everything, room was very well decorated in all white, but required upkeep. The room facilities was basic, the shower area a little old. It really is a lovely hotel, which looks beautiful and the eating area is lovely. Just needs a few tweaks and would be perfect.
Feb 16 to Feb 20th, 2023. 3 Floor left studio apartment. Maya apartment is a small apartment located near downtown Mindelo. The apartment offers all the amenities needed for a self-sufficient stay. The key word is self-sufficient. It is private and safe as it is located near the Police Station and military base. I enjoyed my stay and had no complaints.
A modern, clean hotel in a great location for exploring the city and access to the port for ferry's to Santo Antao. The room was bright, clean and quiet. Very modern bathroom (fab to come back to after a few days hiking on the neighbouring island!). Breakfast was plentiful. And a good bar downstairs serving delicious tapas. Recommend.
The staff was very nice and helpful. I enjoyed the balcony and view. The room was clean and spacious. I found the mini-fridge handy. It was a great price. The location was very convenient for me. The breakfast was plentiful, delicious, and you can't beat the view from the top floor. I had a tasty fish dinner at the hotel restaurant.
Lively restaurant with the hotel above accessed by a separate entrance. The location is great, right in the centre, and within a few minutes flat walk from the ferry terminal. A taxi to the airport cost the equivalent of 12 euros. The rooms are a good size, clean and well decorated, and there are some nice communal areas.
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.
Great studio apartment located in a central area of Mindelo. Close to restaurants and bars with live music. Easy check in and check out, and available to leave your bags if your flight is after the check out. The host gave us suggestions and was always easy to communicate. Recommend it.
Outstanding service, very spacious room, crisp clean sheets and fresh towels, excellent wifi on the roof and in the lobby, excellent breakfast buffet from 7 to 10, hotel location is right across from the ferry terminal (could't be closer), view of the harbor.
The staff at the property was really super nice, Mrs Caurina told us a bit about the history of Cabo Verde and Mindelo and served us the best breakfast we had in our trip. The rooms were nice and clean and the location is very central.
Very beautiful apartment, well located and equipped! The owner was really nice with us helping us to discover the magic of Mindelo :) I highly recommend this for everyone wanting to feel the authentiticy of this city.
The view is great, the room was very nice and comfortable. The beach is like 2 minutes walking from.the hotel. The port is close, 10 minutes walking for those who want to take the ferry to Sant'Antao.
The hotel it’s amazing, proper 4 stars service. The rooms are well decorated, very High standard. The breakfast is great and all the staff have great customer skills. Is the best Hotel in Mindelo.
Location, amenities, room and staff were all perfect. Right across from a grocery store and near the market. Staff was very helpful and pleasant. Mindelo is a nice walkable little town.
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.
