The apartment is well maintained and was spotlessly clean. A couple of really minor issues were almost instantly resolved and the communication throughout the booking and the stay was excellent.The resort common areas are clean and well maintained. There’s always loads of vacant loungers on the sunny and pleasantly breezy beach. Buy drinks or coffee from the hotel bars with your credit card which are cheap and strong! The Dunas hotel has some bad reviews but that doesn’t affect the apartment or common areas so don’t let that put you off.Villa Verde supermarket is an easy 10 min walk away or shop in town at the Chinese-run Huang Supermarket had the best range and prices. The host can recommend great restaurants. Also try Cafe Creolo for the best cooked grilled fish I’ve ever had - and for something a bit fancier try Sal Grosso. Walk about 20 mins south down the beach to Ponta Preta for amazing seafood on the beach (plus free sunloungers for customers). Taxis are readily available outside the resort to town with a fixed fare of EUR5. It’s also a safe 35 min walk back from town if you prefer.Santa Maria is very safe but scruffy in places (this is Africa not Europe). On the beach folks will try to sell you souvenirs but they’ll leave you alone if you give them a polite but firm “no”. The resort’s WiFi is slow so don’t count on streaming movies while you’re here so download the Google Map of the island for offline use and use free restaurant WiFi to sync your Facebook!

With this property you get the best of both worlds- you get to enjoy all the resort facilities: pools, tennis courts, kids club, entertainment, gym, beaches etc but don’t have to pay all inclusive prices and you can go to town, get to see the shops, markets and restaurants and try out the delicious seafood. It’s worth bringing any frozen meat you would like in your suitcase but other than that you can get what you need in the supermarket
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Mar 2023
The unit is within a very large Melia complex however it is close to the main hotel building. The beach is a bit of a walk. There are pools scattered throughout the property so finding a pool is not a big issue. The rooms are comfortable and the AC works but the kitchen area is very small with limited counter space. The refrigerator is a small (very) bar style fridge so if staying a longer time (more than a week) plan to grocery shop in Santa Maria often. The kitchen could use the addition of a toaster oven and a cutting board as well as manuals for other kitchen appliances. The wifi is okay but not great. A signal booster would be a great help. The best thing about the unit is the owner. If you have a problem or need some advice and e-mail Roy, you will hear back (usually with a resolution) within an hour. Amazing attention to his guests. SAL is for kite surfers, sail boarders, fishermen and scuba divers. If you are going for a week, there is enough to do to keep you occupied. More than a week, I would recommend visiting other islands as a part of your trip. The condo is a 5 Euro ride to/from town and there are a lot of decent restaurants there.
The washer in the unit is very good so bring a few laundry pods and you will be all set to keep your clothes clean. The unit is advertised with a roof top patio and it does have that but nothing to sit on up there so we did not use it.
This is a comfortable unit but not luxurious. I would consider staying here again for
