"Great value for money hotel. Good breakfast with quite a few options, and comfy bed. Hotel seems a little bit dated and cleaning could be improved. However, would stay again if catching early flight or arriving late as it’s only 5 mins from the airport."

Ponta de Sao Lourenco is a highlight, whether you walk the entire trail or only a portion of it. Stunning views. There are also some excellent places to photo aircraft around the airport.
