"Nous avons passé un excellent séjour au Morabeza et honnêtement, tout était au rendez-vous. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été très bien accueillis et nous avons tout de suite apprécié l’ambiance de l’hôtel : chaleureuse, paisible et vraiment dépaysante. L’emplacement est incroyable, avec la plage juste devant et cette atmosphère tellement agréable qui donne immédiatement l’impression d’être en vacances. Les chambres étaient propres, confortables et bien entretenues, et tout le personnel a été adorable et aux petits soins pendant notre séjour. Mention spéciale pour l’ambiance générale de l’hôtel, qui garde beaucoup de charme et d’authenticité. C’est exactement le genre d’endroit où on peut vraiment déconnecter, profiter du soleil, de la plage et prendre son temps. Nous repartons avec de très beaux souvenirs et surtout l’envie de revenir. Merci à toute l’équipe du Morabeza pour ce superbe séjour ! Une adresse que je recommande sans hésiter si vous venez à Sal."

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely accommodation right off the beach. Staff are lovely and welcoming. Communication was great and the driver that was arranged to drop us off back to the airport came much earlier than expected and scheduled-which was great!. The property had lots of different cups(wine glasses, tumblers and mugs) and different pots and pans. The property was also located really close to the Santa Maria strip and was close to different restaurants and supermarkets. They also had a pipe to wash the sand off your feet after coming off the beach into the property-which was great!. Staff cleaned the communal areas of the property regularly, keeping the space nice and clean at all times. The property had a home-like feel and was very cosy. The house keeper always checked in :)"

10/10 Excellent

"I could not praise the staff enough at this hotel - they are all so friendly, helpful and super attentive. The food options were excellent and the buffet meals changed daily (with a few consistent staples. Whilst I agree with some reviews that the rooms are a bit outdated - they were always cleaned properly. The rest of the hotel was not outdated (and who spends enough time in the hotel room to care about it being outdated) and had a good blend of natural elements to make every part of the hotel enjoyable. Would definitely recommend this hotel. "
