Homestays in São Tomé and Príncipe

"If you are more a visitor then a tourist, if you like exploring and going further when comfortable tourism ends, this place is for you. The authenticity, genuine friendliness and welcoming hearts of the people of the community made this stay incredibly unique and one of the best experiences of my life. When staying here one can get closer to locals, animals, cultural sights, traditions, local way of life, nature and the PNG culture in general then in any other accommodation. The PNGFE made my stay very comfortable and made me experience local life and the raw nature of PNG!!"

"Sehr sauberes Zimmer und freundlicher Empfang. Schönes Haus in ruhiger Gegend und für unsere Zwecke optimal gelegen."

Ich persönlich bin kein Freund von Gemeinschaftsbad und -küche (war aber unmissverständlich so deklariert ;-) ).

"It’s lovely, very clean apartmant with super cool view. Equipped by all what’s needed for cooking and so on. We really enjoyed our stay! The owner is very lovely and helpful! Thank you for everything! Next time we know where to go! :)"

"The host and her granddaughter who helped with my stay were amazing. The host picked me up in the city and brought me to St Marys and again to the airport in the morning. The traffic was terrible leaving Quito, I felt sorry for the host dealing with it. I was a little concerned that the dogs and other guests might continue making noise throughout the night but that wasn't the case. You are certainly aware of your proximity to the airport as you can hear planes over head. The 'village' is spotlessly clean and well maintained."

I wish there gad been an option to pay with credit card, but I get it.

"It was a comfortable stay. It is an apartment room . Not a hotel , you deal with owner through whtsap . He arranged the door opening and keys and from there you are on your stay. For short stay ,, it is very convient"

Nothing worth mentioning

"Seneng banget menginap di sini. Unitnya sangat strategis kemanapun, staffnya juga ramah dan sigap dalam melayani tamu. Kalau ke malioboro juga bisa berjalan kaki. Nyari spot kuliner juga mudah"

"The place felt so homely I almost forgot I was away from home. The ambience? Absolutely toptier, The location.. definitely stunning.. tucked inside a beautiful and very secure neighborhood. And then there’s Fridah, our host… honestly, she’s a gem. So kind, so warm, so down to earth, she's the kind of host you wish every trip came with...I’m not even kidding, we were low-key heartbroken when it was time to leave💔 I wish we could’ve stretched that stay forever. This is one place I’ll always run back to whenever I’m in Msa for sure...no hesitation, no second thoughts"

A little too diluted shower gel

"Everything clean and neat. All essential things was there if you wants to cook."

It’s just on 2nd bathroom the heater don’t work.

"This was an amazing experience! The room was great in a nice location, but the main reason was the people - Emanuel & his family made me feel extremely welcome in their home, helped me in every way they could & even picked me up/dropped me at the bus station for free! If ur looking for a place to stay in Lubango, look no further seriously...💯"

"The room was quite large and comfortable. The location and building was very relaxing. Definitely take advantage of the bikes and ride around the neighborhood. There is a great supermarket and a couple of awesome restaurants close by. The host was very kind!"

It is quite far from the city. So if you want to be in the city, then this is not the place to be. For one of the breakfasts, we got a big box of cookies and a banana. It would’ve been nice if we got some real food.

"Clean business, local food, fresh air in the balcony, rides to the beach"

"The breakfast had cheese and jam and butter and tahini with lots of different kinds of bread"

"Everyone in Paea's family was so warm and friendly! We were immediately welcomed and made to feel at home. The room was private, and the strong fan kept us cool. The home is a short walk to the beach, and we enjoyed walking along the waterfront into town. It was far from city nose and peaceful at night. 'Ofa and Saffron picked us up from the airport, waited while we bought phone data, drove us to a market for produce, and then drove us to the store for other food before helping us get settled in. 'Ofa drove us back to the airport when we left and offered to stop anywhere we wanted to see as well. They are wonderful people. -Denise and David"

The airport ride cost is not posted online before booking (100 TOP each way), but taking everything into account, the cost seems reasonable; the family is willing to get you what you need in town, and they are lovely to talk with on the way. The airport is 40 minutes away even without any stops. Still, if you are a visitor on a tighter budget, you may want to find somewhere closer to the airport. (This wasn't something we "didn't like" but rather something we thought we would mention for visitors who may not know transportation in Tonga can be pricey.)

"Location is great, price is right, owner is friendly and provide boat tour to ghost village, on the way back captain stop in icefjord and catch cod fish for us. Very nice"

"very happy with this house,very spacious,clean cold and hot water available."

no issues

"Ivan und seine Schwester waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Vielen Dank"

Kein fließendes Wasser, kein Kühlschrank

"Personalul a fost foarte amabil și locația este una buna."

Camerele sunt foarte mici ,de abia ai loc sa te miști. Aerul condiționat nu prea exista, este un fel de ventilator care nu face fata absolut deloc.

"It has a tv, iron, mini fridge, microwave, and separate entrance"

There was a pee smell. Probably, from a prior guest. However, the place seemed very clean besides the smell.

"中式早餐以稀飯為主食，另有吐司果醬可以選擇，豐富配菜及紅烏龍茶飲、鮮奶，吃到飽。 民宿最棒的就是提供洗衣機、烘乾機，讓出外多天的旅人可以清洗一些髒衣服，超方便的、大推；房間面窗可看到花東縱谷美景，距離鹿野高台車程10分鐘很近，地點絕佳，民宿還免費出借腳踏車可以漫遊鹿野，可惜這次來不及使用到。 入住前最擔心的吃飯問題，民宿附近有草仔粿、紅豆餅(下午)，晚餐可以吃附近路口轉彎處的猛爸爸快炒，或到鹿野車站旁吃合菜，都不踩雷、好吃。"

"This is my third time here staying I love this property … the ambiance , the staff ..The property is very beautiful.. I am always amazed when I get here .."

Everything was perfect 👌👌👌

"Helena is super friendly! It was a pleasure to stay in one of the apartments."

The kitchen was not equipped very well. It is sufficient only for short stays. So if you stay for two or three nights it is OK - otherwise you will not be able to prepare decent meals there.

"I just liked it because it was neat, modern and comfortable (Spacious & Private)."

The shower and kitchen taps were taking a bit long to warm up. The bathtub hot water tap worked properly.

"Pude preparar mis propios alimentos excelente estadía"
