The atmosphere and landscaping looks really great. However, we couldn’t make reservations for dinner because they were always full, minutes after opening time. It was nearly impossible to get hot water in our villa so we took cold showers every night. Lastly, none of the bars would make any drinks without alcohol. For being “all inclusive” they only mean for people who drink alcohol. We stayed in a hotel in Praia that had burning hot water and was a fraction of the cost. I won’t be staying here again.

ho viaggio in coppia non abbiamo soggiornato al tortura ma al melia dunas mi sono trovato benissimo suite super confortevole, pulizia eccellente un giorno si uno no ci cambiavano biancheria letto e bagno, ristoranti super ottimi, con servizio eccellente ma devo veramente fare un super elogio alle tre ragazze della recpsion Eidimara, Arabella e Patricia per la loro gentilezza e disponibilità infatti al secondo giorno del mio arrivo ho rotto il telefono e loro mi hanno supportata egregiamente prestandomi il loro telefono personale x chiamare what.sup mio figlio in italia e sono veramente state tre angeli x me, assieme alla rappresentate LOKEA sig. Serena che è stata favolosamente disponibile ,infatti hai potuto nonostante il disguido godere di una magnifica vacanza, consiglio sia l'hotel Melia Dunas che il Tortura sono veramente eccellenti e tutto il personale compresi i camerieri dei ristoranti molto gentili e disponibili, consiglio vivamente questi hotel e ritornerò sicuramente a Capo Verde a SAL.

Trevligt boende, sämre mat
Bra läge och mysigt område med härlig grönska mellan husen. Miserabel Wi-Fi bara på 3 ställen på området, inget Wi-Fi i lägenheten. Fina poolområden. Bufferestaurangen var väldigt bullrig och maten var smaklös, fisk o kött var torrt och segt. Bokning krävdes för middagsrestaurangerna. Där var maten något bättre men långsam service. Trevlig personal men begränsad engelska. Rummen var trevliga men dåligt påfyllt med tvål m.m.

Die miesesten 5 Stunden unserer bisherigen Reiseerfahrung! Nicht zu empfehlen! Wir kamen um 13 Uhr ins Hotel, vor 15 Uhr wurde uns kein Zimmer zur Verfügung gestellt. = 2 Stunden warten. Aus Prinzip. Im Fitnessraum funktionierte keines der Geräte. Internet gibt es auf den Zimmern nicht. Personal unfreundlich.

WiFi is only available in the bar or pool area, not in room. Weak WiFi reception whenever it was available. Long wait time (2 hours) for dinner although reservation was made. You are required to make a dinner reservation however there was no availability to even make a reservation in advance as all restaurants were completely reserved. Housekeeping cleaning was incredibly poor. Trash was not taken out for days, small bugs crawling everywhere, same unclean sheets were being used to make the bed even though requested for new clean sheets. TV cable and phone service stopped working. There is an extra charge for pool/beach towels even with all inclusive. Overall a poor experience and one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed at.
