Absolutely loved this place, warm and welcoming staff, beautiful setting with breathtaking views, close to main  town center. Owner even came to town to collect me to ensure I did not get lost. Really enjoyed my stay and highly recommend.

Great stay

This was the absolute worst meal I’ve had on this trip, perhaps ever. The veggies were rotten and the dish cost twice the amount than that other restaurants. I rarely leave reviews, but it was that bad. Two stars because the waitress and decor were nice.

Rotten veggies

Divin Art was recommended to us by the owner of our B&B. We went there on our first night in Santo Antao and came back two more times. The food was delicious (we loved the octopus and the seafood rice - yummy!) and the service is very friendly. One night there was live music as well, which was great!

Best restaurant in Ribeira Grande

We had lunch here, the food was excellent, two girls were rehearsing for the evening show. Very nice decoration, a perfect pit stop while visiting the island. Santo Antão is a magical island, definitely worth a visit.

A very nice restaurant in Santo Antão

This is such a magical place on this magical island, The staff have wonderful, calm and generous energy. Always smiling and kind. We absolutely loved it and will come back over and over again. 
Thanks you infinitely!

Magical Island 

Frank and his team were very welcoming, provided us with route ideas and maps for hiking in the stunning surroundings.
Travel around the area is very cheap by jumping in the collectifs (minibusses/pick-up trucks) on the main routes (5-10 minutes to ponta du sol, 45mins-1 hour to porta nova).
On Friday night there was live music in the evening, unfortunately we were too tired from a long day of walking to fully enjoy it.

Incredible surroundings

My friend and i stayed on the island of Sao Vicente for a few days and decided to go on a day trip to Santo Antao using the ferry which departs conveniently from the port of Mindelo in the morning. We had heard about Helder, the manager of Divin Art, from an other guest at Villa St Aubyn where we stayed. This guest told us that in addition to running the restaurant Divin Art (which also offers accommodation), Helder also offers private tours of the island with his pick-up truck. We called Helder a couple of days in advance and arranged for a guided tour with a break for lunch at his restaurant. We were very happy with our decision: Helder was waiting for us in Porto Novo, where the ferry docked. He is a very nice guy, speaks French and also some English, and right away he drove us to a beautiful spot with great views over the crater, where we had our packed breakfast. Then he dropped us off on top of the crater from which my friend and I hiked down to the village, which was a really amazing hike. The views down to the sea are stunning, and the entire crater and valley below are very green and lush. Hiking shoes are a good idea, although we wore sneakers and we still managed. When we arrived in the bottom, Helder was waiting for us. From there we drove to a Grog distillery where we learned the ins and outs of how they prepare their famous rum made from Sugar Cane. After this we drove through the inside of the island, where we had some candid insights into the every day island life, and at one moment we got stuck in a large crowd of young students in uniforms leaving school. Once in Ribeira Grande, we were served a delicious chicken dish and we met Sarah, Helders wife, who speaks excellent English and who joined us for the rest of the tour. After lunch we explored some of the smaller towns in the north east of the island and eventually we took the new seaside highway back to the Port. 
Helder was instrumental in making our one day trip to Santo Antao unforgettable and we very highly recommend him to anyone who wants to explore the island for one ore several days.
