The idea
Bom dia. Boa tarde. Boa noite. You'll hear all three on your first day, often from people you didn't know yesterday. But being neighbours here goes much further than saying hello. Island life has always meant relying on one another; helping out, sharing what you have, looking out for each other and knowing there is someone nearby when you need them.
That sense of community is at the heart of our name, Kasa d'Vizin, the neighbour's house. While you're here, we want you to feel part of it too. Not just welcomed, but supported; knowing that if you need advice, a helping hand or simply someone to turn to, you have a neighbour you can rely on.
Kasa d'Vizin is a four-story house in the middle of the village, completely renovated to offer everything you need for a comfortable stay. Nothing fancy or polished away from its surroundings, just a comfortable home, right where village life happens.
Staying here is also getting to know daily life on Santo Antão. Children walking home from school, people doing their laundry in the irrigation channel, the smell of freshly roasted coffee in the morning. You don't have to go looking for the local culture: you are staying right in the middle of it.
Our rooms and apartments combine European comfort with Cape Verdean style, and we serve plant-based food only. We're also happy to point you to vegan and vegetarian products in the supermarket, and to good addresses elsewhere on the island.
Two apartments with their own kitchens and two ensuite rooms in the house. All of them have air conditioning, fast internet via Starlink and access to a private or shared balcony and the rooftop terrace.

Planning your trip
We can help you put together a personalised itinerary based on how much time you have, what you like to do and how you prefer to travel. From choosing where to stay and which hikes or places to visit to arranging accommodation, guides and transport, we can help plan and book your trip for you.
Santo Antão
Santo Antão is a green, mountainous island known for its spectacular valleys, mountain paths, traditional villages and wild coastline. For hikers it is one of the finest destinations in Cape Verde, but if you'd rather take it slowly, visit villages or spend a day by the sea, there is plenty to do here too.
You'll find natural swimming spots at Sinagoga and Porto Novo, farming terraces, coffee and sugar cane fields, authentic valleys and endless walking routes. People are friendly, and the island feels safe and relaxed.
Our house stands in Eito d'Tsima, the upper part of the village. "Eito" refers to a large piece of farmland, and you can still see it today: sugar cane, mango, breadfruit and banana trees and cassava grow all around the house. Vila das Pombas, with its restaurants, cafés and shops, is about 15 minutes' walk downhill, and around 25 minutes back up.

Eating at Kasa d'Vizin
Our kitchen is completely plant-based, but above all home-made, generous and varied. You really don't have to be vegan to enjoy it.
Every morning we serve a big, changing breakfast, included in your stay. Depending on the day that might be fdjose, pancakes, Cape Verdean cuscuz, catchupa, lentil pancakes, falafel, baked oats and other home-made dishes.
Want to have lunch or dinner with us too? Just ask at breakfast or book ahead. Guests in the apartments have their own kitchen. Prefer to eat somewhere else? We're happy to help you find a good table in Vila das Pombas or elsewhere in the valley.
House guests come first in our restaurant. Walk-ins are welcome for lunch, drinks and snacks when the kitchen is open. For dinner we ask you to book in advance.
Allergies & intolerances
Let us know in advance. We have gluten-free bread, for example, and can prepare several dishes gluten-free. Because we work in one shared kitchen, we can't fully rule out cross-contamination. With coeliac disease or a serious allergy we'd rather discuss beforehand what is safely possible.
Why Kasa d'Vizin?
Not a closed resort, but a house in the village of Eito. Neighbours greeting each other, children walking to school, farmers working the land.
Only four accommodations, on purpose. That leaves time to help with walking routes, transport, restaurants and practical questions.
Several routes in Paul Valley start close to the house. We help with route advice, transport to the starting point or a local guide.
Local products, local craftspeople, no commission on transfers or excursions. You know what you pay for.
