"We absolutely loved Bom Bom! Two beaches, very helpful staff and good excursions. We went as two couples, one couple had a beach bungalow and we had room number 18 which is high up with two verandas and views of both beaches and the island. Food very good and bar prices reasonable. NO PLASTIC water bottles just filtered refillable - great. Paid for boat trip to Praia Boi and Praia Banana with lunch served on the beach - worth the money. The philosophy of the HBD Principe company is to be commended. More local arts/crafts to buy as souvenirs please."

"This accommodation is rated well on Booking, which is why we decided to book it. As there was no option for a triple room, which was what we wanted, we contacted the accommodation directly. The owner confirmed that there was a triple room and we made the reservation. We were told that breakfast was not included, so it would be charged separately at €10/person. The owner asked us if we needed a transfer, so I asked several times how much it would cost or if it was a courtesy of the house. As we did not get an answer, and at the last minute, we asked for the transfer, for which we were charged €20 (for a distance of 5km). When we arrived at the accommodation, the owner wanted to charge us the amount including breakfast, even though we had not confirmed that we wanted it. The room we were given was on the ground floor and smelled unbearably of mold. The bathroom was tiny and unreal in terms of layout. We stayed for 3 nights and there was no cleaning on any of the days."

"The plantation buildings have been sympathetically transformed into a comfortable hotel. A friendly team of staff with someone available at all times to assist us in any way conversing with us in English. We enjoyed three excellent excursions, it’s worth listening to advice and local knowledge to get the best from the trips out. When I was feeling unwell I was shown kindness, understanding and help. The beach is magical, the views from the hotel of sea are beautiful, good food, rooms are clean and the museum interesting. We had a wonderful time; however it is Africa and a small island so expect a lack of seatbelts, breakfast not always ready on time and an element of waiting. Go with the flow, don’t let it bother you and enjoy this special slice of paradise."

"It is located in San Antonio, close to everything and Fany always helped us in everything we need.We were very good. Very recommendable"

"This is a fantastically relaxing hotel, set on the waters edge of a pristine rain forest. The rooms are just gorgeous - large and luxurious. They are in fact tents but luxurious ones not unlike the sort of thing you get in an upmarket safari. The double bed is huge and they all have a large shower, separate toilet, 2 handbasins and a comfortable bath right by the window looking out into the rain forest. There's plenty of wardrobe space, a sitting area and a small fridge. The food is very good and the ingredients are mainly local, and organic where possible. The hotel can organise excursions, on the island and by small boat. But make no mistake, you are not going to a Maldives or Caribbean type resort. The island is a poor one, and the infrastructure is still quite basic outside of the Praia Sundy resort. But set against that, you will be visiting an island before it is overtaken by mass tourism. The one downside I found had nothing to do with the hotel. The rainy season started earlier that I expected and with rain, come mosquitos."
