A little piece of paradise

We ended our Cape Verde island hopping trip on the amazing island Maio. After a few active weeks, we wanted to end our holiday with a very relaxing few days and Patricia's holiday house was everything we wished for. Patricia is very friendly and super helpful. She knows the island so well and she even arranged a taxi for us from and to the airport. The house is very spacious and there are a lot of places to relax and hang out and have a good time. The pool is amazing and you really don't even need to leave the property in order to have a good time, but in case you want to, there is a wonderful beach very close by with (almost) no one else. Would highly recommend this stay!

Casa Lemon is an incredible gem of a place on an untouched and magical island!

If you are looking for somewhere to completely disconnect this is THE place ! Casa Lemon is a very special villa managed by very special people. Care and thought has been taken in every detail - from the outside terraces to the bedroom decoration. Maio is a magical island that amazingly seems still untouched by modern day tourism. We spent two weeks with a mix of lying by the pool and exploring the island - this island is for the adventurous though and those who like finding their own way. We personally took three flights to get there - as there is a weekly flight or boat from the main island Praia that takes 15minutes. Patricia was very helpful in giving us help on booking this though and so nothing was an issue. There was also a lovely housekeeper who looked after us and offered home cooked meals delivered to the terrace if requested. The villa was clean and inviting, there are some bugs at night so I would come prepared with mosquito spray :) you will have trouble finding it on the island - and I would say come prepared with essentials as the beauty of Maio is it is limited for tourist shops and big shopping centres! When we stayed the internet had some issues and we didn't find it to be 500mpbs but hopefully you go for a holiday and not to look at emails :). Patricia was very helpful also in trying to get it fixed. We also got confused in the listing that the pool was private just for casa lemon - but it is shared between another villa that Patricia hosts also. This also was not a problem though as the pool area is large enough to share and you won't be disappointed by the view ! Honestly this is a gem of a find, we feel very luck to have stayed and discovered also the magic of Maio. It is worth the journey and we will be back!

Herrlicher Blick aufs Meer und fantastischer Pool. Mini Mercado um die Ecke, zum Strand und ins Ortszentrum ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß.Die Besitzer haben uns mit den FĂ€hrtickets geholfen und auch sonst war die Kommunikation super. Ivania hat fĂŒr uns abends gekocht, nochmal herzlichen Dank dafĂŒr! Daniele war ebenfalls immer ansprechbar. Die Tour ĂŒber die Insel mit ihm war beeindruckend. Das Haus selber ist mindestens so schön wie auf den Fotos mit einem tollen Blick auf den Atlantik.

Villa Lemon wie im Paradies

Wir waren leider nur 20 Tage in dieser wunderbaren Villa. Die Wirklichkeit ist noch schöner als auf den Bildern zu sehen. Aus dem Pool möchte man garnicht mehr raus. Herausragend die Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft der Gastgeber. Alle wĂŒnsche wurden erfĂŒllt, teils sogar bevor sie geĂ€ußert wurden (Abholung am Hafen) Wir kommen gern wieder, vielleicht schon im September,?

Super

Es hat alles gestimmt: Der sehr nette Vermieter war stets erreichbar und hat fĂŒr mich sogar ein Ticket fĂŒr die FĂ€hre nach Maio besorgt! Das Casa Lemon steht direkt am Meer auf einer kleinen Anhöhe - das Rauschen des Meeres war stets prĂ€sent mit Blick Richtung SĂŒden. Toll. Alles war sauber und in einem guten Zustand. Die Verwalterin -so nenne ich die bezaubernde Helena mal- war jeden Morgen erreichbar, da sie den Pool reinigt. Sie hat z.B. meine WĂ€sche gewaschen. Sehr ruhig wie der gesamte Ort und die Insel selbst, die ich nach zwei Wochen Aufenthalt in mein Herz geschlossen habe. Freundliche Menschen sowie sehr sicher nach meinem Empfinden (typisch Cabo Verde). Es gibt mehrere MinimĂ€rkte und Tavernen in der NĂ€he; es fehlt an nichts. Maio ist wunderschön mit kilometerlangen einsamen StrĂ€nden und sehr wenig Touristen - genau was ich gesucht habe. Hoffentlich bleibt die Insel so wie sie ist. Ich komme nĂ€chstes Jahr wieder, wenn ich eine so gute Unterkunft wie diese finde ;-)

Klasse

Supernetter Host, der in der Zeit als wir dort 2 Wochen Urlaub gemacht haben gerade auch dort wohnte. Es handelt sich um 3 FerienhĂ€user die sich den Pool teilen, Villa Amarena, Mango und Lemon. Die Terrasse ist direkt an einer SteilkĂŒste vor einer Bucht. Athemberaubend. Warum wir nur eines der beiden Schlafzimmer aufgeschlossen wurde, haben wir nicht verstanden. Ein Schlafzimmer hat ein Doppelbett, das Andere wohl zwei Einzelbetten. LĂ€stig waren die vielen GrashĂŒpfer, die fast 10cm lĂ€nge erreichen können, und bei DĂ€mmerung ins Licht fliegen. Die „Stadt“ hat viele kleine LĂ€den mit dem Nötigsten was man zum Leben braucht. Die Restaurants sind OK, kulinarische HöhenflĂŒge sollte man aber nicht erwarten. Was uns begeistert hast war die extreme Freundlichkeit der Bewohner, fast jeder winkt einem freundlich zu, sogar aus dem Auto. Alle sind hilfsbereit und super freundlich, auch wenn man mit deutsch oder englisch nicht weit kommt. Man spricht Kreol, eine Mischung aus Portugiesisch und irgendwas anderem. Französisch ist eine Alternative bei einigen Menschen auf Maio. Frei auf der Insel leben viele Hunde, viele HĂŒhner und auch einige Wildschweine, Ziegen und ein paar KĂŒhe. Sie Streuner sind aber nicht aggressiv, wir fĂŒhlten uns sehr sicher. Insgesamt ein tolles Urlaub, wenn man die Ruhe sucht.

Wunderschöne Villa, wunderschöner Platz

Wir haben im Casa Limon drei Wochen verbracht und uns in diesem wunderbar barrierefreien, minimalistischen und sehr stilvollen Haus sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt. Das Licht, dir Anordnung der RĂ€ume,die Farben und die große Terasse mit dem Blick auf die KĂŒste und den Atlantik sind einzigartig. Aber auch die KĂŒche und Schlafbereiche haben alles, was man braucht. Das Haus und die kleine Stadt sind ein perfekter Ort fĂŒr Ruhe und Inspiration.
