AB  - Tourism has been fundamental for countries’ economic development, and Africa is the
destination with the biggest tourism growth potential. Using 1414 travelers’ online reviews collected
from TripAdvisor, the present work aims to understand which variables predict the satisfaction of
Cape Verde’s hotel clients. Satisfaction was analyzed using sentiment analysis and ANOVA to predict
the effect of the gathered variables on clients’ satisfaction. Results indicate that 90% of the clients
revealed positive satisfaction and that nationality, date of stay, and previous traveler experiences
affect satisfaction. Contrarily to our predictions, there is no statistically significant evidence that
gender influences satisfaction. The findings of this study will help hotel marketing managers to align
their strategies accordingly and meet their clients’ expectations.
