    Casamarel, luxury hotelThis is a first rate hotel! The staff is absolutely lovely and the rooms have spared no expense. The view over the harbor is gorgeous, the breakfast excellent and the dinner was fine. We were lucky to eat outside overlooking the harbor when some Cape Verdian musicians were playing beside the pool.

    Heerlijk eten op een prachtig terrasWe hebben bij casamarel eens iets anders gegeten dan de verder ook lekkere lokale gerechten. Het was gewoon leuk om eens iets anders te eten: We hadden humus met wortel- en komkommersticks, een taboulee met verse kruiden en tomaten. Daarna hadden we allebei "a caril", een kipcurry en een groentecurry.
