We got a very good price for this property. The service was quite good. The only thing I would complain about is that the buffet was a bit limited and it wouldn't change that much from day to day. Also the quality of some dishes was a bit questionable. For such a big resort, the gym was quite small and most of the machines were not working. They offer a transfer to go to Santa Maria, however, there is one a day and it's shared with the other Meliá hotels nearby, so very few seats are available for people staying at Sol Dunas. Also, there is no transfer to go back to the hotel...

I travelled with my family (my wife and 2 yound children) and we enjoyed almost every single moment of our stay. The resort is in very good condition with a lot of things for people of all ages to do. My only 2 gripes are: 1. None of the kids pools are heated and so in very windy weather all the pools were freezing cold and the kids couldn't swim. 2. Our rooms weren't cleaned one day (despite leaving the correct notice on the door) and coming back from a long day of exploration/touring with 2 kids to a room with no clean towels and bins still filled with rubbish was very exasperating for us. Fortunately we were able to get clean towels that night but had to wait for another 12 hours before the rooms were cleaned. Other than those 2, it was a truly wonderful experience for us. The staff are very friendly people and the "No Stress" motto of Cape Verde is reflected thoroughly at this resort. It's an amazing place with no stress at all. Special shoutout to the minders at the kids club...they are truly amazing people. Our kids are still raving about the day spent there. Kudos to the entire resort team. P.s. If you can, book the island tour with Jack Sparrow at the beach.
