Reviews of Chez Maria Julia Boutique Hotel

Clean and friendly staff! Great breakfast

Nothing

Lovely hotel that exceeded our expectations. Spacious rooms and beautiful restaurant.

Maria Julia is an amazing host and the food is 10/10 🤌🏽

All was perfect - thank you!!! - smooth check-in, check-out, helpfulness of everyone around (I felt like at home and very welcome), cleanliness of the room and also other areas, cosy rooms and the whole hotel, reception also provides the taxi service ordering, functional Wi-Fi - amazing breakfast (local, fresh, delicious, interesting, home-made - I had everyday different breakfast even though I stayed more than a week :), amazing restaurant (all meals I tasted were literally very experiential) - calm and nice location close to the beach as well as supermarket As a bonus, chef Maria Julia around with her kindness and professionality (not only in gastronomy) :) I hope to come again!

Maria Julia and her crew were an excellent host. They gave their best to make my stay a memorable experience. Thanks

The owner is a professional TV cook. You could tell the food was special, had excellent taste, and was beautifully served. The owner has been an excellent host in the old sense, making connections to almost all guests.

Nothing to tell.

Unfortunately only stayed one night, as I was traveling elsewhere - but staying here gave me the chance to really relax and prepare for my travel. The bed was comfortable and the room clean and spacious. Breakfast was great as well is the restaurant itself. I had the honor to meet the owner and she told me about this project - as this hotel is more than just comfortable rooms with a bed! (google all the info) Keep an eye on this hotel and come and support :)

The property is very modern, with great design and very clean. Outstanding attention to customers. We returned here a few days after our stay and asked to keep our luggages for the afternoon and they let us do that free of charge. Breakfast was amazing and rich, and they serve dinner too with many options.

Clean, modern, great location nearby the beach with easy parking and next to an awesome gym and the promenade with options to do CrossFit. For me, the best food on the island due to vegan and healthy, microbiotic food and lovely staff. The food is pricier than elsewhere, but worth it.

The hotel is very modern, clean and comfortable. The staff is friendly and very accommodating.

It’s a little bit out of the way but this can be overcome with cabs or walking which we enjoy.

Maria Julia was very attentive and made us bespoke foods for breakfast that was accommodating for vegans. Excellent coffee. Beautiful hotel with a lot of potential - it isn't quite finished yet with lots of spaces yet to be utilised but it's going to be really lovely once it's complete. The rooms were spacious, comfortable with blackout curtains.

No kettle in the room. More savoury items at breakfast.

Everything!

New accommodation very comfortable and fresh Food is delicious. Much better then else where Chef is professional,so tasty food Highly recommended

Huge room with comfortable beds. The bathroom was great. 1km to Kebra Beach, my favourite beach in Praia. Maria Júlia is friendly and a great host. Breakfast was the best we had in two weeks in Cape Verde, she offered so many things that she just cooked for us on demand - in addition to the buffet. The restaurant is also good for dinner, our pumpkin - sweet potato soup was excellent.

It's a matter of taste - but I think a European style hotel doesn't fit in Praia. It doesn't have the charme of other places we stayed at in Cape Verde. The huge glass front that the sun shines at during most of the day is also not adequate to a hot capital because the house feels like a sauna so that the AC has to be constantly running in the rooms. That made me sometimes freeze because we didn't find a way to regulate the temperature (buttons didn't work). The hotel also doesn't follow its own sustainability policy - changed towels after one night although we didn't put them on the floor.

Brand new place with large & confortable rooms, very clean, quiet. The hotel is located not far from town (if you do not want to walk, taxi is only 2 euros) & near beaches ans wonderful sunsets. Julia Maria is a wonderful host but also a recognised Cook in Cabo Verde : you will have great food at her restaurant.

Maria Julia is a wonderful woman! The hotel was great and very quiet. We really enjoyed both the breakfast and our dinner!

Location was far from the city center, but the taxi is not expensive !
