Locals, Tourists, Date Night
Casadefrance in Santo Antao is celebrated for its tranquil and restful atmosphere, providing a secluded escape for travelers. With a 4.4-star rating, it is particularly noted for its private beach and unique, moon-like coastal landscape. The resort features a charming and recently refurbished interior that contrasts with the more rugged external surroundings of Porto Novo. Guests frequently praise the friendly hospitality of the owners, though many highlight that French is the primary language spoken on-site. While the food is described as satisfactory, the menu is noted to be somewhat limited. A recurring point of advice from reviewers is the necessity of a vehicle, as the property is located away from the main city and is not easily walkable.
