About the host
Hosted by Simone Gabriela
I am the daughter of the owners of the property. My parents Alcindo and Sonia own the property for over 30 years now and have up kept it very well. Now that the kids are out of the house we have the extra space of the first floor apartment that we have freshly renovated. I help my parents with managing and renting the property via the internet and they are there to receive and accommodate the guests.

What makes this property unique
Casa di Doce isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a heartfelt slice of Cape Verdean life.
What sets it apart is the warmth of tradition blended with modern comforts. My mother, Sonia, crafts some of the most beloved jams and compotes in Cape Verde, and each guest gets to enjoy a taste of that sweet heritage. As locals, we love sharing our culture through hospitality and flavors that speak to our island’s soul.
As a Cape Verdean immigrant living in the U.S., this is also my personal retreat. I’ve tailored Casa di Doce to be perfect for my own family of four—whether we’re adventuring around Praia or relaxing together indoors. It’s designed for connection, discovery, and cozy downtime.
Plus, it’s remote-work ready. My spouse and I are both used to the high standards of U.S.-style remote work setups, so the apartment features fast fiber internet and everything needed to be productive while enjoying island life.
And as locals, we're happy to share our insider recommendations—from top-rated restaurants and cozy cafés to nearby gyms, Pilates studios, massage spots, and other neighborhood gems—all within walking distance. We make it easy to feel at home and enjoy the best of Palmarejo.
Casa di Doce offers a local experience with global comfort—where every detail is personal, intentional, and sweetly unforgettable.
