We very much liked the good espresso and the pastéis de nata on the terrace in front of the hotel upon arrival. The room itself was spacious and nicely decorated. We also had a tasty dinner in the restaurant. People were friendly and we could leave part of our luggage while staying on Santo Antão. The ferry is within walking distance from the hotel. A take-away breakfast was provided when we had to leave early for the ferry.

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 hotel is well-located to many restaurants and the port/terminal where one can take the ferry to the neighboring island. We arrived early (before the check-in time), and Henry offered us free breakfast at the hotel restaurant, located just downstairs. We left for the other island early the next morning, and he made sure that a small snack had been prepared for us. Days later, we were able to keep our bags there as we explored the city. Henry (again) arranged a taxi for our trip to the airport. I would definitely stay here again!
I had difficulty finding the property. Twice I walked past the building.
Roads rarely have street-names in Cabe Verde and local people, while friendly and helpful, do not always recognize the name or address of a business (even if they live in the next street).
I had to be collected from a nearby hotel where, in desperation, I sought help and refuge.
Everything else was fine except having to pay 500$00 CVE more than the booking price because it was asserted that there was an error on the Booking.com page.
I was worried that the location would be too far from the center of Mindelo. In fact, it was a short walk both to the center of Mindelo and to the beach, admittedly a walk downhill and then a return uphill. It was even closer to our two favorite music venues: Metalo Fast Good (sic) and Birdie Jazz. Also, Katy and her team were great. Breakfast was an event, eating on a balcony overlooking Mindelo.
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
We had a wonderful stay at Luna for a week. It's a perfect place to explore Mindelo. It's quiet because not fully in the center yet very close to the beach. The absolute highlight for us was the staff that cared extremely well for us while my wife was a bit sick -- it feels so good in those moment to be around nice and caring people. We will always come back to Luna if we get to Mindelo.
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.
Very quiet and comfortable apartment at short walking distance from the harbour and about anything else in Mindelo. Marvelous terrace with seating and dining area is a great plus. Excellent bedding and well equipped kitchen. Rafael, his mother Rita, and his uncle Alexandre are very helpful and informative.
Excellent place to stay if you're on a budget. The Basic Hotel is indeed, as the name literally says, basic, but it's a really great basic, with super friendly staff, a clean room, an ensuite bathroom, wifi, and a great breakfast. It went far beyond my expectations, and I would recommend it to anyone.
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 .
Nilsa was such a great host! She even came to meet me at the airport, and was very helpful anytime I had a question or query. The house is on a small uphill, but very easy to access from the ferry and central. I definitely want to come back, not only to Mindelo - but to Vila Mira Mar.! Thank you! x
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 staff were super welcoming and helpful while we had some issues to sort with the local airline.
Breakfast was very nice and the overall feel of this hotel was amazing. Very quiet location close to the port.
Carlos & Celestina are so nice people, so warm and welcoming, so supportive. The flat is so clean, the kitchen is so well equipped and the breaky is delicious. In Mindelo - this place is easy and no stress.
Great location on a quiet street but centrally located. Luxurious accommodations with a warm welcoming staff and nice breakfast. We will surely be back when we are in Sao Vicente.
