"By far the best hotel in the whole country. There is nothing missing, the service is wonderful, the location is top notch. Highly recommended"

"Casa Mãe is a well-renovated house with two rooms, one living room, one bathroom, and two balconies with amazing views. From the front balcony every morning we could see thousands of beautiful butterflies and colorful birds and from the back balcony, the view is unique to the garden, fruit trees, and plants like vanilla or black pepper. We also can see the sea and the national park. The staff is very kind and the property is always very clean. Near is the Pousadinha Mar Ave Ilha which belongs to the same owner where we can spend time reading or watching more than 100 TV channels from all over the world. The local meals were also fantastic, especially the fresh fish and the octopus. I truly recommend Casa Mãe to other guests who want to have a peaceful time. Grade 10."

"Beautiful, quiet location overlooking the sea. Close to a small beach. The host's communication was good."

"Everything was great, from the welcoming, to the kindness of staff, the rich breakfast and dinner, the help with arranging guides and giving me advice. The room was incredible, a lot of space and intimacy, I felt alone and it was very restful. I particularly loved the use of local materials and the typical decoration and the lush vegetation around."

"Spacious super clean room with hot shower and AC. The pickup from the airport (which is just around the corner) is perfect if you have a late evening or early morning flight. The owner and her son were very kind and friendly and took good care of me. Thank you!"

"A casa muito linda confortavel e bem decorada,localização perfeita o anfitrião e super fantastico e sempre desponivel. Recomenda-se!"

"L'allotjament està ben situat, a prop del centre neuràlgic de la ciutat de São Tomé i del Parque Popular. Les instal·lacions són senzilles però comfortables pel preu que es paga. L'amo de l'allotjament, el senyor Eliso, ens va fer sentir com a casa i es va assegurar que no ens faltava de res."

"This is the kind of place I always dreamed of visiting. A rustic house in the tropics with calm surroundings. It's tastefully decorated and overall tidy. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking. The view from the verandah is stupendous! If you like birds, you can see the majority of the Principe island endemics right from the porch and even catch a glimpse of Tropicbirds and Brown boobies flying by below. People who maintain the place took good care of us and communication with the owners (in Portugal) went smoothly through WhatsApp. The owners are clearly keen to make your stay a memorable one in a positive way and have addressed many of the complaints in previous reviews like adding a mosquito net and fixing the lock."

"Everything about Sonho Non was amazing! I was travelling on my own and the property felt incredibly safe and welcoming. The owners Elena and João were very hospitable and ensured I had a great stay were also super helpful if you had any questions or needed advice. The food was the best I had in São Tomé super fresh and a nice mix of local produce and flavours with Portuguese cuisine. The rooms/lodges are incredible spacious with incredible views over the water and a very comfy bed. The property is particularly quiet (dogs on property do bark however this did not bother me at all they are particularly friendly). This was my favourite place I stayed on the island will certainly be returning. 10/10 recommend if visiting São Tomé could have easily spent longer here"
