Oasis Salinas Sea

Super and almost perfect stay at your hotel Difficult to find any mistakes. Food is really good Room very nice Cleaning excellent Personal very nice and helpful The WiFi is very good and stable in my room, but some areas at the pool, the buffet restaurant and at the beach area at the hotel, the WiFi is very unstable and almost not possible to use. I think it is the same issue in many rooms. This is one finding, which I think is important for you to solve.

We have returned to Oasis Salinas, this Easter, from March 19th up to March 26th. Room nr. 2056, a family room (for 2 ADLT + 2 CHD) with a partial ocean view. We had some German Friends joining us on the 20th. This was our 4th time in the Oasis Group in Sal. We noticed some add ons since our last visit. The major one was the beach bar / restaurant. Las time we had some frigo bars close hand with drinks and this was it! The food is good for an AI namely at lunch and dinner. Breakfast is simple but acceptable. Drinks are OK. We found the employees to be nice and kind, particularly those at the front desk and from the animation team. Lindsay was very nice, courteous and professional. She became friends w/our daughter. :) The beach at Oasis Salinas close to the pier is the best. The location is top. The colors and the water temperature!... so nice. We will definitely return, special during Easter time, March or April. Proves to be a fantastic beach break, less than 5 hours’ flight from Lisbon, with a balanced cost-benefit. Once again, we felt at home. Thank you, Oasis Group, for another memorable stay!

Hotel is ok. Very good location, walking distance to the charming town of Santa Maria. The food was okay, with enough variety, although the scrambled eggs could be better. They make omelettes, pancakes and fried eggs, but you have to wait in line. The employees are generally nice, although in the restaurant I had two situations where a member of staff almost bumped into me with a stroller. They drive between aisles and you have to give way to them, otherwise they may run over you. Some of the drinks in the bar are very good, I especially recommend the Caipirinha. Wide beach, nice-colored sand. Some sunbeds are slightly worn and dented, but this is a minor problem, there are better ones by the pool. The deckchair parasol fulfills its function, which is very important when there is so much sunlight, it has an interesting structure made of sticks - you have to be careful because you can hit your head. There is a lifeguard on the beach, but he looks at his cell phone almost all the time, the waves in the ocean are very strong and if someone starts to drown, he will probably only have himself to rely on. The water has a beautiful color and is very clear. Only one swimming pool for adults + one for children, but it has everything you need. Both the beach and the pool have their own bar serving drinks, and snacks are also available near the pool. The room was fine, large enough, the air conditioning worked, there was always hot water in the bathroom. In my opinion, the animations are not very varied, tourists from Italy have a separate animation team and sports facilities especially for them, which may make guests from other countries feel discriminated against.

Best location! The food was so good and varied, we went out and ate pizza twice but would have just as easily been able to eat at the hotel. No difference in taste experience at all. The room and balcony are a good size, the cleaning is very good. Fresh and nice! Thank you Adilsa Santos for making our 3 weeks so wonderful. The hotel is great! Modern, clean and stylish. The location is perfect - right on the amazing beach and a short walk to the center of Santa Maria. Plenty of sunbeds, even if some elves set the clock as usual, accessibility was good. Some complain about hard beds but we slept as good as any, nothing wrong with the beds at all, and some complain about the food but the fact is take these complaints with a pinch of salt because most come from families with children and have never understood their need to complain? All the staff were as pleasant as possible, always, thank you Sara Lopez who worked the whole New Year's weekend for us and others. Get in touch if you know a place to buy nearby. Thanks for the varied food, every day new tastes (if the families with children ate the food instead of leaving everything on the floor, you would have known about the same). We don't think the Oasis is an overrated hotel, they deserve five stars. VING delivers as usual. Food and drink and all inclusive among the best and most varied we have eaten. Thank you very much for making our first stay in Cape Verde a great one, next time we will definitely come back to Oasis!

The room was basic clean and quiet. The surfaces need painting and a little renovation. More like a 3* hotel. The food at the buffet was tasteless, but the food at the separately reserved ala carte restaurants was surprisingly good (when there were no expectations)! Be prepared that the opening hours of the pool bar/pizza restaurant are not correct! The pool area and beach were great!

Have been coming to Cape Verde for many years, usually staying at a Rui chain, thought would have a change, wish we hadn’t!! This is definitely not a 5 star hotel. Positives: Its a lovely location and the beach is amazing. Negatives: On arrival, no welcome drink Room nothing special, very basic bathroom, hand held shower or it floods the bathroom. No toiltries only shower gel No robes, slippers Towels thin and small. First night unable to sleep due to mattress, all springs coming through. Straight to reception in the morning to ask for mattress to be changed, no apology just I will get it changed. While we were there, mentioned about being all inclusive and having to buy soft drinks package or drinks package, makes no sense, receptionist just shrugged her shoulders!!! Majority of staff are not friendly or polite, there is no real leadership or management, no checking in for any meals only if you have been given vouchers in which you have to book the date at a separate desk. The food is ok but nothing special, the cocktails are a joke. When walking through the hotel there is no atmosphere, the place has no soul, no pictures on walls in corridors etc. Definitely not worth the extra money we paid to stay here, compared to Rui which is a 5 star hotel accross the board. At most a 3, will definitely not return or recommend.
