Allow us to introduce ourselves! We are a German couple - Chrissy and Ralf - who embarked on an adventurous journey in 2017. After living and working in the bustling Hong Kong for a few years, we decided to build our own Land Rover Defender expedition vehicle. With it, we explored eight countries across Southern and Eastern Africa, fueled by our love for Africa, nature and exploration. In search of a tranquil haven with access to untouched wilderness, we found the perfect mix on the island of Sal. Here, you can discover the convenience of some modern comforts while still being immersed in pristine nature. As experienced scuba divers and avid shark enthusiasts, we are always on the lookout for new underwater adventures. On land, our passion for hiking has taken us to remarkable heights, including conquering Kilimanjaro, the highest free-standing mountain in the world. Our dog is our constant companion in our outdoor pursuits, and we spend as much time in nature as possible. We reside in the same neighborhood as our rental properties, so we are just a short message away if you need any tips or assistance. We are excited to share our love for nature and adventure with you during your stay on Sal Island!
A mere 10-minute stroll leads you to a picturesque fishing village - Palmeira, a charming haven boasting an array of restaurants, bars, and shops, capturing the essence of local life. Convenience is at your doorstep, as the international airport of Sal is a swift 5 to 10-minute taxi ride away, ensuring a seamless transition to and from your tranquil retreat. For those seeking vibrant beaches and lively vibes, the bustling Santa Maria is a quick car ride of under 30 minutes, promising dreamy coastal landscapes and lively seaside experiences. Adventure awaits just a stone's throw away with ferries departing from the nearby harbor, connecting you to other islands. Explore the unique Shark Bay, a 10-15 minute drive, where the extraordinary opportunity to be in the water with baby lemon sharks awaits, creating memories that linger. Discover the captivating Salinas, an equally brief drive away, or immerse yourself in the vibrant capital, Espargos, a mere 5-minute taxi journey. Here, indulge in shopping delights amidst the local culture. Our property is strategically located, providing a perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility to the gems of Sal, offering an unforgettable blend of relaxation and adventure. Keen on some action on the water? Surfers, drawn by the siren call of the ocean, can experience some of the island's finest waves in the bay directly in front of the property, creating an exhilarating playground for wave-riding enthusiasts. With conditions varying by season, surfers find themselves navigating the perfect swells, turning the bay into a dynamic canvas of aquatic art. The location not only caters to surfers seeking the thrill of the waves but also invites spectators to revel in the captivating dance between surfer and sea.
