    Everything.The hotel is a little bit Old, but the people of Fogo strugle to get things to the island and when they have they're expensive.So with this difficulties the hotel is very well maintened.Very clean, great breakfast, friendly and helpful staff.The pool is amazing. Not on the center, but with a restaurant (very good) and mini-supermarket (the cheapest for water and wine).But near the center (10m walking).Love it.Thank you Xaguate!

    Last day our lunch was served with such a delay that we didn’t have time to eat all. The communication between the waiter and the kitchen hadn’t functioned. The AC in the room blows right to your face when in the bed.

    Nice location and pool, very helpful staff. Denise made us a snack at late hours when our arrival was delayed and saved us from starving 🥰. Really accommodating service. We even got wonderful breakfast bags for the volcano hike. Thank you Denise!!!!

    The bar guy caused some misunderstandings pretending to speak and understand English. On the other hand he was very friendly, smiling and helpful.

    Location is very good and the pool and the wonderful view! The staff at the reception and Denise in the kitchen are adorable!!!! The breakfast box we got for the hike was very nice.

    We stayed at this charming colonial-style hotel for three nights and had a wonderful experience. The hotel is extremely comfortable, and the staff is always attentive and ready to assist. The pool area is absolutely breathtaking, offering stunning views of the sea with the picturesque Brava Island right in front.

    Comfortable hotel with pool, breakfast and friendly staff. Very nice, after another hotel booking fell through and Bamboo Xaguate still had a room for me. It's a little outside the city's old town but within easy walking distance. The hotel is clean, fresh linens, comfortable rooms and a lovely pool to spend some time in.
