The hotel is not by the beach. The photos make it look like it is by the beach but really isn't. You have to walk about ten minutes to reach the praia. The breakfast was good. The staff in the restaurants were friendly and efficient.
The overall service was okay. I arrived Sunday, asked for extra 2 clean pillowcases, and I had to ask about 4x before I actually got them. By the time they gave me pillowcases, it was already Tuesday afternoon. I asked for a wake up call on my last day and the reception never called my room. I asked for clean towels and I was told that towels are changed every three days. I stayed for 7 nights and my bedding was never changed. The only positive thing about this hotel is breakfast. Other than that, it is pricey for the quality of service they provide. I say it is FALSE ADVERTISEMENT especially when it comes to beach descriptions.
I would go somewhere else. I cannot recommend this hotel simply because customer service is not their priority.

Good boutique hotel

I arrived late at night and the receptionist Lou was friendly. I asked the hotel for the shuttle and there was lack of communication their side. They hadn't confirmed and i booked via a different site and they sent a taxi anyway! Luckily my private taxi agreed to take me on the return airport run. The room was lovely and spacious. Nice bathroom and balcony too. Aircon and a fan. All staff were nice and happy to help. 5 minutes from the pier and beach. Great location.

Wonderful comfy beds . Nice breakfasts. Helpful staff. Clean.
Piri piri restaurant on site was a disaster. Husband ordered a pizza finally got it .mine didnt turn up. Waiter said sorry coming in few minutes , half an hour later turned up with a plate of seafood rice. We were only one of 4 people. Just a bad night , he said he was sorry and no charge. Think someone was spaced out!

A week in Santa Maria, Sal.

Spent a week at Sobrado Hotel. The good points: The staff are reasonably friendly and accommodating. The hotel is 5-7 minutes walk to Santa Maria, with bars, restaurants and several golden miles of beautiful beaches.
Our room was superb, clean and spacious.
Breakfast was good at the hotel with a good selection of cooked items, cold hams and salamis, fresh fruits, yoghurt and pastries.
The poor points that hotel needs to improve:
I had health and safety concerns with all the gym equipments which need replacement. We couldn't use the gym facilities.
There was no spa services available, so went to another establishment.
The hotel location, while entirely safe and accessible to beach and social life in Santa Maria, was on the edge of a desolate area. Sal is incredibly dry and desert-like, similar to Morocco or elsewhere in North Africa.

We loved this hotel. The staff are great. It’s cheap as chips compared to other hotels in the town( because) it’s a 5 min walk to the glorious beach where they have an arrangement with another hotel to use their cabanas!
The rooms are modern, spacious with ceiling fans which are better than air con as they are quiet. We voted the breakfast here the best of the hol, from 3 !

This hotel was clean and everything cleaned daily in room. The staff were fantastic,so friendly and helpful with everything you needed. The hotel had a sister hotel 5/10 mins away which had a lovely pool plus you could use their sunbeds on beach very near.
The hotel was a 5/10 min walk into Santa Maria plus some restaurants really close by. We would highly recommend the Sobradi and it’s not overpriced. We left yesterday.
Breakfast was perfectly adequate and set us up for the day

Check in was impersonal and the room we were given had not been cleaned at all.

I complained and we were given another room - 'sorry' - but the key thing here is that they weren't interested in even looking at the original room.

The outside light on the very small balcony (no furniture!) could not be switched off and the light polluted the room - we we told that it switched off automatically at midnight - 'sorry'.

The next day the hot water system leaked all over the bathroom. Again we complained and we were given another slightly better room - 'sorry' - this was three rooms in three days. As this time we had unpacked, moving rooms was time consuming and tedious. Again - 'sorry'.

At no time during our stay did the management attempt to make contact and apologise in person.

And breakfast - the staff had to be chased for absolutely everything each day for seven days - no glasses, cutlery - hot drinks had to be fetched individually from somewhere outside the breakfast space.

The selection of food was very poor and would frequently run out.

Staff at breakfast were very poorly trained - not even 'sorry' was offered.

I cannot recommend this hotel.

For me this is not a 4-star hotel, more 3-star hotel. Dirty bed-linnen and dirty towels. They also charge you an extra 5 EUR if you want to change the towels. A 4-star hotel would never do that. Otherwise it is a very average hotel. The pool area is kind of depressing and the location is between two petrol stations. But it is ok.

Wir waren 12 Tage im Hotel Sobrado. Positiv hervorzuheben ist die Sauberkeit und Größe der Zimmer. Die Klimaanlage hat wunderbar funktioniert und auch der Denkenventilator war angenehm bei den hohen Temperaturen. Die Zimmer sind gut gedämmt. Die Frühstücksauswahl ist eigentlich auch ausreichend, jedoch lässt die Motivation der Dame am Herd sehr zu wünschen übrig. Die Eier und pancakes waren leider tot gebraten. Als an 2 Tagen ein jüngerer Herr am Herd stand war das Frühstück und die Stimmung um Welten besser. Was Freundlichkeit und Spaß am kochen ausmacht, hat sich hier wieder gezeigt.
Es gab jeden Tag super frisches Obst.

Ein Riesen Lob an die Putzfrauen die ein super Job gemacht haben und zu jeder Zeit das Zimmer sauber machten, sobald wir zum Strand los sind. Egal ob 9 Uhr morgens oder 14 Uhr mittags.

Der Pool war relativ klein aber das ist auch egal bei solch einem Strand vor Ort. Zum Strandabschnit mit Liegen des Hotels läuft man 15 Minuten. Dort gibt es verbaute Schirme und liegen welche man sich mit einem Partner Hotel teilt. Die Gäste des partnerhotels kommen allerdings gefühlt um 6 Uhr morgens und blockieren die liegen mit ihren Handtüchern. Viele sind in der Mittagszeit im Hotel zum Essen und lassen in dieser Zeit für 3-5 Stunden gerne mal das Handtuch auf der liege um sie zu blockieren damit sie um 16-17 Uhr immernoch ihre liege besitzen. Das sollte man sofort verbieten!!! Aber ggf ist das so ein Ding der italienischen Urlauber…

Wir waren vom 23.5. bis am 6.6. das 2.mal in diesem Hotel. Das 1.mal hatten wir auch Kritik, wollten dem jedoch nochmals eine Chance geben.Dieses Mal war es zum Teil eine Katastrophe, was nur das Frühstück betrifft, das Zimmer war gut.Die Freundlichkeit vom Personal im Frühstücksraum an, diese ist gleich null. Wir wollen draussen Frühstücken, gedeckt wird immer nur drinnen und man muss das Besteck und alles von drinnen selber raus nehmen. (Am Abend ist draussen immer gedeckt) warum kann man das beim Fruchtstück nicht? Wir mussten etwa drei mal Fragen ob wir noch Käse haben können, erst dann wurde aufgefüllt und das obwohl man noch eine Stunde Frühstücken konnte. Die Kaffeemaschine ist von den 13mal wo wir gefrühstückt haben 4.mal nicht gegangen und es gab eine Brühe die nicht trinkbar war. Einen Kaffee von der Bar hiess es, muss man bezahlen. Erst nach dem 3.mal nach reklamieren, auch von anderen Gästen gab es dann einen Kaffee. Zum Schluss kommt noch das aller schlimmste; wir haben am ersten Morgen Brot gegessen, danach nie wieder. Im Frühstücksraum hat es Vögel die sitzen auf dem Brot und knabbern daran rum und trotzdem bleibt das Brot offen liegen. Das geht gar nicht und man kann davon Krank werden. Die Angestellten haben das gesehen, aber es ist wohl egal, sie müssen das Brot ja nicht essen. Für ein 4 Sterne Boutique Hotel, ist das ein NO GO!! Für uns hat das Hotel niemals 4 Sterne verdient und es sollte auch nicht so angeboten werden, da auch der winzige Pool dreckig war

PESSIMA ESPERIENZA

Pessima esperienza: arriviamo la notte di capodanno e scopriamo che la camera non era stata preparata. Inizia un film di telefonate ad altro loro hotel ma invano e senza dilungarmi ci allestiscono approssimativamente la stanza e riusciamo finalmente a entrare verso le 3 dopo averci rovinato ovviamente i festeggiamenti di capodanno. La manager mortificata per l’accaduto ci assicura che ci sarà rimborsata la notte. I problemi possono succedere è comprensibile e l’importante è la gestione: mi hanno dato la parola che saremmo stati rimborsati e va bene cosi. Invece per 2 giorni la manager si è negata e c’è poi stato un rimbalzo di personale che con le scuse piu strane mi hanno detto che la manager non poteva essere presente. Morale della favola son riuscito a parlarle per telefono e la stessa manager si è rimangiata la parola del rimborso dicendo che quello che poteva fare era offrire un pranzo.. quando tra l’altro avevamo appena prenotato un tour per la giornata, quindi inutile. Sono stati disonesti e soprattutto bugiardi, cosa che mi ha dato particolarmente fastidio. Passando a descrivere l’hotel e cercando di essere imparziali è un hotel abbastanza nuovo ma gia con evidenti problemi come la caldaia che fischia, fastidiosissima di notte e la location fuori dal centro in zona non piacevole soprattutto quando si torna di sera. Essere bugiardi e prendere in giro negandosi per 2 giorni lo trovo insopportabile. Ogni replica a cui non potrò piu rispondere sarà solo pretestuosa

Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereit Personal. Sauberkeit und Ordnung des Hotels bzw. Zimmer war auch sehr gut. Ab und zu haben Geräte, wie das Lift oder Klimaanlage nicht funktioniert, war aber fairerweise von äusserlichen Bedingungen abhängig. Das Hotel hat nur zwei Geschosse, von dem her alles OK. Das Essen war auch gut, wenn man die Verhältnisse des Landes berücksichtigt. Dafür im Hotel ist ein Restaurant (das Piri Piri) integriert. Das essen war sehr Fine und Preis/ Leistung Verhältnisse haben auch gestimmten. Der Strand ist zu Fuss in sehr gemütliche 10 Minuten erreichbar. Wer Wert auf Ruhe, Sicherheit, Sauberkeit, Erreichbarkeit und Preis/ Leistung-Verhältnisse legt, ist das Hotel eine sehr gute Wahl.

Good hotel, but...

Nice size room, very clean. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom had nice size. Balcony was very small. Cleaning every day. Small fridge/mini bar, sadly no price list were present for the mini bar.

Nice backyard with sunchairs and a small pool. Staff were polite and helpful.

Breakfast was disappointing. Limited choice and absolutely no variation during my two week stay.

If you're a single traveller and want to take a visitor to your room - find another hotel. They charge you 25 EURO for bringing a visitor who is NOT allowed to stay the night...!
