The Pink Banana guesthouse!

While our guesthouse isn’t the biggest or the most famous in Cape Verde, we’ve got something special: stunning mountain views, warm hospitality, and a calm, friendly vibe. With just a few rooms, we offer a peaceful stay for hikers, nature lovers, and anyone looking to unwind in Cape Verde’s beautiful Paul valley.

ABOUT US

The Pink Banana

We offer three beautifully designed guest rooms, each with its own distinct style and personality, brought to life by local artist Hibrarin Dias, who created a custom mural in every space. No two rooms are alike — each one tells a story inspired by the natural surroundings of Paul.

All rooms feature:

Flexible sleeping arrangements: a double bed that can be easily separated into two twin beds — perfect for couples, friends, or small families
A private ensuite bathroom, ensuring comfort and convenience
Optional breakfast, with fresh local ingredients to start your day right

Whether you’re here to hike the valley, unwind in nature, or experience Cape Verdean hospitality, our rooms offer a cozy, creative space to call home.

Our Hotel’s Guests:

While staying in Indianapolis on my business affairs I always stay at this place. The price/quality ratio here is just outstanding, allowing me to save more money for other spends while visiting… My rating is 5 out of 5!

Choosing a hotel is always challenging, especially if you’re on a hectic schedule and are visiting the place for the first time. That’s why I was so happy that my guess with this hotel was definitely a lucky one.

I’ve been visiting Indianapolis last year while touring across the Midwest with my family. The Family room is just great, the hotel’s restaurant (and bar) are nice and overall, even the price was very reasonable…
