Set within less than 1 km of Funana Casa da Cultura and 5.6 km of Viveiro, Botanical Garden & Zoo di Terra, Ouril Hotel Julia offers rooms in Santa Maria. This 3-star hotel offers free WiFi. The hotel features family rooms. Hi Ouri Hotel Julia, I was a guest at your hotel from July 30-August 2, 2025, room #103. I am happy with the accommodation even though 1 late afternoon, the lights went out and did not come back until 2 hours later. No worries about that, it’s part of Cape Verde life. It is not the hotel’s fault, I totally understand that, and have no complaints there. Upon checking out on the evening of August 2, I thought I had everything until I realized when I was about to board the flight out, that I forgot a few of my valuable items in the pull-out drawers ! Immediately I tried calling your hotel but to no-avail. The next morning, I get an email from your receptionist Karine notifying me that they have found clothes left in the drawer of my room ! I needed the clothes back and she proceeded to help, from the heart. I just want to thank you Karine for going out of your way to help me get my items back. Karine went to the post office and post-mailed me my items all the way to the USA. I work in customer service myself and I must say, Karine’s customer service is pure 100%. Thanks to her, I am reunited with my valuable items that I thought I lost forever. Karine deserves a raise ! I will definitely be recommending your hotel to any of my friends that will be traveling to Sal soon. Thank you. Mya Dao

They let us keep one of the two rooms that was not reserved until after our day tour so we could shower and change before our flight. Breakfasts were great with several made to order choices.
