"This place was beautiful and clean. Sean and the staff were amazing and so helpful. I recommend booking the tent with its own bathroom. Which is what I did."
"The mosquitoes!! I was there right after a ton of rain. Sean did hook me up with bug spray which helped a lot."
"Devocean Hotel offers a truly unique experience. Simon, the host, is a star- welcoming, attentive, and passionate. The way they’ve created a deep connection with nature right in the center of Ponta do Ouro is unbelievable. Staying in the tent during the rain was pure magic — so special that I’d plan another stay just to experience it again."

"The place was extremely clean and neat. Location was perfect"
"Shared bathroom"
"Sean and his team were very welcoming. It was an easy check-in, and right at the beginning, he spoke about all the amenities available on the property. It's based on an honesty system, where you can help yourself at the bar and pay for what you've taken when you set the bill. The breakfast was good. We had eggs Benedict, and they were prepared as we requested. Devocean is very well located, within walking distance to the main hotspots of Ponta D'Ouro."
"Because it's located on one of the principal streets of Ponta D'Ouro, you might hear the quadbikes from time to time. In a busier time of the year it can be a problem, if you're looking to sleep in."
"Great value for money. Sean and Liz are wonderful and the food is amazing. Look no further for an affordable yet comfortable stay in Ponta de Ouro."
"It gets a bit cold at night."
"Breakfast was excellent. Great variety, very tasty. Location was good, within walking distance from everything."
"Would have liked it to be closer to the sea."
"I was warmly welcomed by Sean and his family, they were always present and ready to answer all of my questions. The tented accommodation was so much better than I expected and I loved that there was electricity and a fan inside. The breakfast was spectacular with many options to choose from. The location was perfect, I am glad that it wasn’t on the main street because the trees blocked some of the noise. The shared toilets and shower facility were not bad at all. Would absolutely stay again!"

"Excellent breakfast many choices, Fresh Portuguese bread every morning"
"Nothing The beds could of been softer"
"The owner (Dutch guy) is very friendly and nice, he’s super organized and equipped the guesthouse with everything you would need. The food (both breakfast and dinner) was really delicious. The guesthouse is really nice and cozy, I stayed here on a very windy rainy night so couldn’t do any activities but enjoyed the place in the tent. Thanks for the experience"
"Staying in a tent on a windy and rainy night was a bit uncomfortable I felt like I’d fly out as the noise was annoying but it was my choice to stay in a tent as there were cottages also in the house. The house is in a walking distance or short drive from the beach not directly on the beach."
"the tents/matress are very comfortable, b'fast is delicious. safe parking space, free water/tea/coffee. Llittle green oasis in middle of the place. 10mins walking to the beach."
"the shared toilets could be a bit improved with door instead of curtain for the shower. but overall we had a great and relaxing time."

Avis de Adriana Dunes de Dovela eco-lodge
"The lodge has a great vibe! Very private (the Villas) Especially the beach front is ideal for young kids to swim as there's an old reef wave breaker so the first 30 meters are without huge waves and at low tide this creates a nice warm sea-pool kind of water to play in. There's a Good restaurant. We've read reviews about waiting time and quality but the 3 times we ate there the food was very tasty and service was prime. Very nice beach vibe. Kids loved it. Will definitely return!"

Avis de Jabulane Massinga Beach
"We travelled as a family of 4 and stayed at Archipelago in a sea-view casa for 3 nights. What an excellent place. The staff could not have been more helpful, the location at south beach was perfect, the accommodation was great, and the gardens were a beautiful bonus. The kitchen was well stocked, although we ate at the Sand Dollar restaurant on-site throughout. The food and service here were excellent, with the view of the beach and sea outstanding. The casas are well-spaced and really very good indeed in terms of size and quality. Only one other casa was occupied during our stay, which meant that the pool and restaurant were pleasantly quiet. At busier times it would be reasonable to expect more company in communal areas. Overall we loved it."
Avis de John Archipelago Resort
"We loved everything about our stay, the staff were AMAZING and truly did everything they could to make sure we had a nice time and to answer any questions we had. Not to mention the views from the place, was just picture perfect paradise. Close location to other hostels that have restaurant."
