Are you looking ahead to some top-notch holidays in Cape Verde? Sun lovers, Cape Verde is for you. It’s ten unique islands float in the Atlantic Ocean, around 500km off the coast of Africa, so you can expect year-round warm weather and an archipelago of white-sand beaches.
A typiocal flight from the United Kingdom only takes around six hours, so holidays to Cape Verde are ideal for those who are not up for a long-haul flight, too. So, where should you stay?
Most of Cape Verde’s hotels can be found on the islands of Sal and Boa Vista. Both islands line up some premium sandy stretches. Take a look at our top hotels to get you started on your search.
1. Melia Tortuga Beach Resort & Spa, Sal
This hotel makes it easy for you to take advantage of Sal’s beach scene; it is set on one of the island’s sandy stretches. This place is all set for families, offering spacious rooms and a fun-packed activity programme. Pool-wise, you have got a double helping of huge swimming pools – one’s best for chilled-out sunbathing and the other keeps the spotlight on sporty activities. For little ones, there is a pair of kids’ pools, too. And, when it comes to relaxation, the relaxation-ready spa delivers. Make sure you pay a visit to the thermal circuit, which lines up a steam bath, perfumed showers and a sauna.
2. Tui Blue Cabo Verde, Sal
This adults-only hotel is set right on the oceanfront near Algodoeiro Beach. Designer decor in cool hues, a swanky spa and a first-rate dining selection are just a taste of what is on offer here. The All Inclusive dining scene lines up a buffet restaurant, an Italian and an Asian Teppanyaki, where you can catch a cool fire show. If you fancy adding some extra luxury to your stay, then swim-up and sea-view rooms, complete with a Jacuzzi are also available. The candy-coloured streets of Santa Maria are only a short drive away from this resort site.
3. Melia Dunas Resort, Sal
If it is a facility-packed hotel you are after, take a look at the Melia Dunas Resort. There are two swimming pools that are open to all guests, and another that is exclusive to anyone staying in The Level adults-only rooms. If you opt for a room in The Level, you will get perks like spa discounts, too. Wander through the hotel’s tropical gardens and you will reach Algodoeiro Beach, a cotton-white stretch of sand where you can get involved with watersports or just unroll your towel and sunbathe.
4. Riu Palace Boa Vista, Boa Vista
This resort scores top marks for style, and is surrounded by sand dunes and sugar-white beaches. Inside, the decor is fit for royalty; think polished marble floors and contemporary design features. There are three a la carte eateries; a steakhouse, a Japanese and a fusion restaurant as well as a buffet restaurant, so you can be sure that there is something for everyone.
