Cape Verde holidays offer something rare: genuine escapism without the crowds. Strung across the Atlantic 570 miles off the West African coast, these ten volcanic islands trade in year-round sunshine, extraordinary beaches, and a relaxed, music-filled culture that is entirely its own.
Whether you are drawn to the powder-white dunes of Sal, the dramatic peaks of Santo Antão, or the achingly beautiful bay of São Vicente, a luxury Cape Verde holiday gives you space to breathe — and a warmth that lingers long after you return.
Warm, dry climate ideal for winter and summer getaways
Beachfront hotels made for relaxation and comfort
A mix of Creole charm, music, and island traditions
All-inclusive escapes with brilliant package deals

An all inclusive Cape Verde holiday is one of the most compelling ways to travel: you arrive to find everything — meals, drinks, watersports, evening entertainment — already arranged, so the islands can do what they do best and simply envelop you. The all inclusive resorts on Sal and Boa Vista are particularly well-suited to this style of holiday, combining proper beach frontage with consistent sunshine and a standard of service that rivals comparable Caribbean properties at a fraction of the price. Our all inclusive Cape Verde packages include return flights from the UK, private transfers, and full board accommodation in properties we visit and personally rate each season. Popular choices include the beachfront resorts of Santa Maria on Sal — where the turquoise lagoon is practically in the lobby — and the quieter, dune-fringed resorts of Boa Vista for couples seeking something more secluded.

Sal: The most resort-developed island. Vast white beaches, warm flat water perfect for kite-surfing, and the widest selection of luxury hotels and all-inclusive properties. Boa Vista: Quieter and more remote, with sweeping desert landscapes meeting the sea. Ideal for couples seeking seclusion; nesting sea turtles add a singular wildlife dimension. Santiago : The cultural heart of the archipelago. Cidade Velha — a UNESCO World Heritage site — boutique hotels, and Creole cuisine at its most authentic. São Vicente: Home to Mindelo, the archipelago's most vibrant town. Music venues, colourful colonial architecture, and a natural harbour that draws superyachts.

Cape Verde enjoys over 350 days of sunshine per year, which means there is no truly bad time to visit — but the nuances matter for a luxury holiday. November through June is considered peak season on Sal and Boa Vista: temperatures sit comfortably between 24°C and 28°C, the sea is calm, and hotel availability at the finest properties tends to go quickly. If you are planning Cape Verde holidays for 2026, our advisors recommend securing your preferred resort before the summer rush. July and August bring the harmattan wind, which can affect beach days on the eastern islands; travellers who prefer the cooler, greener scenery of Santo Antão or the cultural richness of Mindelo actually find this the most atmospheric time. Whatever your preference, our 2026 Cape Verde packages are available to book now with flexible payment options.

Sal Island is the main hub for luxury beach holidays, with Santa Maria offering a range of stylish, all-inclusive resorts along the coast. These beachfront properties provide spa facilities, swim-up bars, and evening entertainment—perfect for a relaxed yet indulgent break. Boa Vista offers a quieter, more exclusive atmosphere with luxury hotels nestled among dunes and endless beaches. For those looking to experience Cape Verde’s culture with a touch of sophistication, Mindelo on São Vicente offers boutique-style accommodation in a city with music, colour, and charm—ideal for a more adventurous but still high-comfort holiday.
Cape Verde enjoys a warm, dry climate with sunshine throughout the year and a relaxed island atmosphere. Spring and autumn bring comfortable warmth and clear skies, while summer is hotter with refreshing Atlantic breezes. Winter remains pleasantly warm and bright, making it ideal for beach days, coastal walks, and laid-back outdoor living across the islands.
