The location is exceptional, everything is in the walking distance from the hotel. The only thing which may more far is a beach where you can swim, but it is no problem with all transport facilities. The personnel is welcoming and always ready to help.

Great communication with the team before arrival. Jane offered to set me up with tours etc. upon arrival, even trying to connect travellers to share excursions. The room was comfortable and had a good size. Air-con worked without a hitch, but insulation/ventilation was quite good, so I actually didn't need it much. The pool is a bonus, but the beach opposite is actually is nice for a city beach. It's a little far from shops/supermarkets, but close to the nicer restaurants in town. Unlike other places in São Tomé, I felt the staff genuinely enjoys working at Emoyeni Gardens and was always friendly and courteous.

The most remarkable thing about The hotel was the receptionists (Vania, Jerseley and Isaias). They were very professional, friendly and supportive. I wish I could remember the names of all the staff who worked at the restaurant throughout the week. They handle well a few rude customers. They always remained calm and respected them. I think you should place a notice board at your hotel stating that you won’t tolerate racism or any discrimination against your staff.

An unknown jewel!
An unknown jewel! We visited idyllic places, saw the most amazing sunsets over tropical beaches & saw very few tourists.
Most of the locals were very friendly and helpful. It is a photographic paradise.

They have a lot of historical sites and great beaches and islands with friendly people and lots of local cuisines. The city is in bad shape and bad roads and they need to develop the tourism sector particularly their tourist sites . The airport is bad for a tourism country like that and the hotels needs to up their services to meet a value for money and they need to learn English language which is an international language especially the staff of the various hotels and all tour guides. It’s a great place to visit at most for 5days.

Sao Tome is a fantastic destination.
Sao Tome is a fantastic destination. A safe tropical Island almost untuched from the outside world. It is not for unseasoned travellers or the ones who want a lot of service and/or Diesney like conditions. It can be a bit costly and you have to bring cash in form of smaller Euro banknote denominations.
Crime, political instability and diseases are much less than in surrounding countries, wich makes travelling here hazzelfree.
The climate in the dry season (june-august) feels comfortable, especialy considering that it is tropical Africa. The islands abound with green lush tropical forrest with a lot of exotic fruits, fantastic beaches and some interesting sights.
The food is good especially the fresh fish and shellfish, as well as the multitude of excotic fruits and vegetables.
In Sao tomé Town I especially recomend the following restaurants/cafees : Papa figo, Camoes and Pastelaria Central,
You get much more from your visit if you can speak portuguese.
No Visa for 14 Days travel for EU citizens, no need for yellow fever vaccination certficate if travelling from Europe. There is four flights a week with TAP (portuguese) and one flight a week with STP (Sao tome air company)

It´s a Paradise!!!
It´s a Paradise!!!
You have to go and see all the sand beaches and eat all the fresh fishes.
You have to experiment the santola in the restaurant with the same name.
Go to Ilheu das Rolas! Very beautiful!

Language barrier is too problematic.
Language barrier is too problematic. English is something that even restaurants have difficulty to understand.
Beaches are good. Can spend some lonely time at night without much trouble.
Brush up on Portuguese language very well or one may end up not having a good meal!
Loved to see the Boca De Inferno. The water gushing the rocks is awesome. Smooth roads give you the enjoyable drive towards the south of the island. The Great Dog Peak was worth a view!
Loved to eat seafood at the Ilyang Ilyang Restaurant with a peaceful ambience and English understanding staff.

The climate, the forest and the scenic tropical views were unmatched.
There are two main phenomenons regarding STome people: leve-leve and doce-doce.
The first is very welcome when on holiday but can become a problem when you want to get things going.
The second is more of a bittersweet feeling. It can be sweet when seeing it for the first time especially with children, but this turns to harrassment pretty quickly.
From the capital (Sao Tome) , you will have a beautiful , yet challenging road ahead (approximately 2,5 hours, heaviest is Porto Alegre, even for a 4x4). But it is a reason to take it. The lodge is on a beautiful and breathtaking cliff. Amazing views. Driving in to the ecolodge area is just amazing. Pineapples all around, not to mention the rest. The cottage was spik and span and comfy. Different viewsites with well built platforms to do that. Beach within walking distance. Lot of different surfaces (rocks, sand, plants etc.)
The owner, Nilda, is a genuinely nice and friendly lady who is very helpful. She coordinated with a money changer for our Euros to Dobras at a better exchange rate than anyone else. Our room was simple but clean and comfortable. The shared bathroom was also very clean. Free street parking and strong Wifi are two pluses. We used this casa as our base to explore São Tomé and it was perfect. Lots of great restaurants in town and easy to explore the north, central and southern sections of the island from here.
The location is great on the side of the town, you can walk to restaurants and markets easily. There is a rental car company on the side of the hotel that is very convenient. The front desk staff are very kind and helpful. The room was a good size. The central garden and pool are a good size and surrounded by mature trees and lots of birds. It's a nice space that the rooms overlook. We could walk directly out to the pool from the room.
Breakfast with local fresh fruits was delicious. The hotel in so peaceful, loved the donkeys and dogs. situated out of the town in a nice quiet area. Riccardo and Juanne were fantastic hosts and looked after us so well. Juanne arranged for a guide to take us around the island. They collected us from the airport. THey did laundry for s and also cooked delicious dinners.
This hotel is at a great location which is right across from the beach and walking distance from town. The owner and staff were very welcoming to us. On our last day it had rained heavily the previous night which caused floods so we were unable to go tour the southern part of São Tomé. The owner let us stay in our room for free until late evening to catch our flight!
Geovanni is a very welcoming host that speaks English very well.
The rooms are clean and tidy and offer everything you need. The breakfast the served is delivious and gets you ready for the day exploring São Tomé.
The location is right in the city center and allows you to explore everything by foot.
I have stayed there various times and always enjoy coming back.
Very nice place. Owners very nice and helpful with any kind of request.
Swimming pool veryvnuce to chill out with small bar with very correct prices (rare in Sao Tome)
Claudio Corallo in next door, everything in walking distance. Sea walkway really nice.
Place has been repainted with new colours, look like new and calmed! We liked ;)
I liked everything and everyone. Dona Helena was a fantastic host. Me and my partner could not ask for a better place. We were safe and blessed to be there. We thoroughly recommend this hotel without a doubt. The food was excellent and fresh. Thank you ever so much for having us. We are coming back for sure.
The owners were very nice, they came to pick us up at the airport and help us to have a sim
Card. The hotel is very clean and the room is comfortable with AC and a bathroom. The breakfast is good with fresh fruit, juice and omelet on the roof well decorated. Very good value for money - we recommend!
The hotel's owner is really nice and helpful with everything - just ask!
Perfect location downtown in walking distance to supermarkets, café, restaurants, a car rental and tour agency.
I was even able to check out very late at no cost as my flight had originally been delayed to nighttime.
The hotel is on a quiet side street so not much noise. Most places in Sao Tome were in walkable distance but you can easily get a taxi or moto from the hotel. I liked the design of the room and it had good AC. The staff were very helpful even when there was a language barrier.
This was one of my favourite places in Sao Tome! The bungalow was so nice and the whole property is very beautiful. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was super good. I really recommend this place and will return when I come back to this island
Very hospitable and friendly host, super kind to pick us up at the airport, help us to change currency.
Very nice breakfast.
Rooms have air conditioning.
The center of Sao Tomé is close and reachable on foot.
Great location for exploring Sao Tome Island.Nice breakfast with lot of fruit. Louis and his wife is a wonderful hosts, they made a delicious dinner for us last day of stay and drop us to the airport!
Beautiful hotel with many and varied communal spaces. Our room was large with all the amenities. The staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant and bar were well done. It is close to the airport.
The hotel is very nice and nicely decorated, right in front of the beach, has also a nice pool in a beautiful garden and is within walking distance to many restaurants and to the centre of São Tomé.
Very nice location, good starting point for exploration. Very "Westerner" friendly setup, comparable with European 4* hotels. Friendly staff and beautiful Infinity pool
