Hotel Boa Vista

Boa Vista


Functional hotel on the main road into Sal Rei, with bright rooms that are generous with space and amenities – though the design is rather dated. The best rooms are on the top (3rd) floor and have balconies with partial sea views (for the same price). There's wi-fi, for a fee.

The on-site restaurant has live music on Friday nights.
