Reviews of Kasa d'Vizin

Great location, room was comfortable and with everything you can need, personal is very attentive and makes the stay very pleasant, and breakfast is top

Kasa d'Vizin is an amazing place in a wonderful island in a great country. In the hotel they offer good advise to visit Santo Antao, and also they provide help when you need it. In my case, after my air company had lost my luggage, Ruben, the manager has been patient enough to let me call every single day from the hotel to the companies and the airports to track where my suitcase could be. He also helped me to find the medicines I needed and where left in the luggage but, most of all, he listened, he cared and he provided comfort. Beside that, Kasa d'Vizin is in the middle of the amazing Vale de Paúl, a place everyone should visit in his or her life. The hostel provides with excellent dinner, and the breakfast are huge, hand-made by those magnificient ladies and served in a terrace with sights to a heaven-like landscape. Guys, you are the best! Muito obrigado, Ruben, os meus parabéns para voce e para as senhoras. Tenho saudade!

Absolutely nothing to complain about.

Loved the rooftop terrace and its views! Its conveniently located and has all you need. Food is great as well but if you want diversity just go to town and eat there

Nothing really, room was a bit dark but I only noticed that cause I God sick so spend more time in there than I wanted unfortunately

We loved everything!

Everything was perfect!

This place is so magical.. the rooftop is really the most amazing view of the valley at sunset. Value for money hands down this is the spot to be if you’re hiking a few days in Paul. They have a bar upstairs with food and drinks, super fun and friendly staff. Food is really good, vegetarian but hearty.

No hot water :) if they could have hot water this place would be a 10. After a long day of hiking that really was not fun to have a cold shower. But I still very much enjoyed this place.

Unforgettable views from the room and terrace. Quiet and peaceful, only beautiful birdsong waking up in the morning. Perfect for access to hiking trails and for seeing and experiencing authentic life in the valley. Best breakfast I have had :) and delicious food at dinner too. Warmly recommend!

The location at the beginning of the Paul valley is perfect for some nice hikes. You can even book a guided hiking tour through the hotel. Our appartement was very charming & thoughtfully equipped. We had everything a traveller needs. The rooftop terrace was a lovely place to stay & the team served very good food - eventhough we are not vegans. ;-) It was very generous to have free supply of drinking water & fruits which we appriciated a lot. Hannelore & the team were very friendly, especially Ruben was very attentative & easy to talk to.

Hannalore was so helpful - both before we arrived (arranged a taxi with 2 days of touring around the beautiful area). When we arrived 3 out of 5 of us were unwell and were especially well looked after. The location is fabulous as was the food. So beautiful - we were lucky to have perfect weather.

I can't think of anything!

Beautiful property, very well run by Hannelore and her friendly professional staff Superb views from the roof terrace, beautiful room, enjoyable breakfast (particularly the lentil pancakes), good WiFi, laid back vibe and we also enjoyed the dinner very much. The property specialises in vegan food. As a vegetarian I enjoyed it. My only criticism overall would be the room and dinner are a bit overpriced (for backpacking not short holidays) although with only a handful of rooms I understand this. If you don't want to dine on the roof terrace, which is very enjoyable, you can always go elsewhere. Overall, a lovely place to stay which perfectly compliments the absolutely outstanding Paul Valley.

Kaas d’Vizin is a beautiful stay in the mountains, the room is very spacious, was super clean and is nicely decorated just as the whole house is. Very enjoyable rooftop restaurant with nice view on mountains. Food was absolutely great, all vegan which we did not know and honestly did hardly notice! Very friendly staff

Some noise at night but earplugs were even present to tackle that

Nicely decorated and practical studio in a stunning location, especially convenient for hikers. Very helpful and friendly staff, providing us with plenty of good advice. It makes an excellent base to explore the island.

Hot water supply is sometimes limited in the area. The mattress was too soft (for our taste)

delicious food, the view from the balcony, kitchen is equipped, friendly stuff

The owners, Hannelore, a Belgian lady and her Cape Verdian husband, were exceptional in reacting to any question I had before my stay, While I was very happy with Casa Cavoquinho, further up the valley, when I arrived, this property never answered to any question before my arrival, and I was not sure whether they are even open. Hannelore always answered and gave me reassurance, which I will always appreciate. Very nice property in a small village near the coast, great small room, wonderful roof terrace for breakfast. I was the only guest for dinner (no other place in the village) but was provided with a great meal.

Nothing really, The food is vegan, just for everybody to know. The dinner was delicious, for breakfast I would have preferred something more hearty, but it was very much OK..

I just finished my second stay at Kasa d Vizin as a solo traveler, and it was just as fantastic as the first time! Nestled in the stunning Paul Valley, the views are breathtaking and the peaceful atmosphere makes it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The guesthouse itself is comfortable, clean, and charmingly decorated, with a laid-back vibe that instantly puts you at ease. My room had everything I needed to feel right at home. I was pleasantly surprised by the vegan meals; even though I don’t usually eat plant-based, the food was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Breakfast was a real treat and the perfect start to my day. The staff were friendly and welcoming, always ready to offer great tips for exploring the area and ensuring I had everything I needed. Their recommendations truly enhanced my experience. Overall, Kasa d Vizin is the place to be when you’re in Santo Antão, regardless of your dietary preferences. I left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to plan my next visit!

Can't speak of this place more highly: - Absolutely incredible hospitality. The owners ensured that we had accommodation at every point of our trek across the island, calling numbers and going out of their way to make sure that we had certainty in our travel plans. They also had really helpful handouts and more than enough information on neighbouring trails and activities to do. - Beautiful rooms. Extremely clean, super comfortable and very well furnished. - Great food. We had a delicious dinner and breakfast and it was a welcome change to have vegetarian food. Overall, you NEED to stay at this place if you visit the Paùl Valley!!!! We were so impressed. The owners are absolutely amazing

Nothing 😁

Our stay in Kasa d'Vizin was above our expectations. Beautiful, comfortable, clean studio in a new guesthouse. The hosts and the ladies preparing and serving the food were absolutely nice and helpful. We were allowed to check in earlier on arrival and check out later on the day of departure. Stunning view over the Paúl valley from the rooftop terrace. Hike from Cova crater down to the guesthouse is a must despite the muscle pain and sore toes on the following day :) Definitely recommended!

Frogs entertaining us with their singing during the night. Anyway, we got used to it by the second night and they are part of nature, of course.

The room, the view and the helpfulness of the staff. The island itself is also an absolute must see, and local people really friendly and helpful

The hotel was listed as having "Vegan and Vegetarian options". However when we got there we were told it was a Vegan hotel, so no animal products and that there are no restaurants in the village and nearest restaurant is 30min walk downhill. If the hotel had made that clearer we would have chosen a hotel where we could enjoy fresh fish which is amazing in cape verde. Still, this didnt take after from our stay!

I spent one night in the single room but I was happy to see that it had a double bed (in which I slept as a baby). As a female solo traveller I find it very important to feel safe and I did feel very safe at Kasa d'Vizin. I was able to enjoy the terrace and the view and was served a very tasty dinner after. At breakfast there is lots of choice and I was told I could take anything I wanted to eat during my hike. I also refilled my water bottle for free. In my room I found a document where I could list my food allergies. I myself don't have any but I found it very thoughtful as I do have relatives with food allergies who sometimes struggle on holidays.

The kitchen staff (which is absolutely lovely!) doesn't understand English but that's really nitpicking as this is common in Cape Verde and things such as Google Translate exist to make communication possible.

Beautifully decorated and comfortable room with a lot of attention to detail (loved the Cape Verdean art!). Also the staff was very kind and welcoming. Because of this we felt right at home. Good information and help with planning our transport. Dinner and breakfast was delicious!

That we only could stay for one night.
