About this property

Gear up at this unique, restful accommodation in Desert Viana. Surrounded by wild donkeys and in the middle of the locals.

The space
Unique property in Estância de Baixo. You walk straight into Desert Viana. Stay like the locals and among the locals. Enjoy the wonderfully peaceful environment and you will spot many donkeys in the wild here.

Guest access
Your own entrance. Private room with key. Living room, bathroom and kitchen.

Other things to watch out for
Life in Cape Verde cannot be compared to Europe or the hotels on the islands, this means that you really stay the way the locals live here, which means that you have to sacrifice a bit on luxury, namely: There is no hot water here. So showering is with lukewarm water, because it is not really cold here haha. If you want a hot shower, we will prepare a bucket with water here and then boil water in the bucket.

Why they chose this property

This property is unique, because i'm the only one who have 1 appartment and 1 countryhouse for rental in Estancia de Baixo. Estancia de Baixo is a small village with no tourists, only locals lives here. And they are so friendly and lovely! Estancia de Baixo is unique because it feels like you're in a different world. In the middle of the wildlife and our beautiful deserto Viana. How many donkeys will you count?
