All Inclusive Holidays to Cape Verde
Author: marie
All Inclusive holidays to Cape Verde are a fantastic way to visit the Cape Verde islands without having to worry about spending too much money. Many of the all inclusive resorts in Cape Verde are rated 4 or 5 stars and there is ample entertainment and activities that offer great value for money.
Cape Verde all inclusive holidays are available on two islands: Sal and Boa Vista. Sal is the most developed in terms of tourism and has the largest choice of hotels. Boa Vista is less developed and only has a limited choice of hotels, but the scenery more than makes up for it.
There are direct flights to Sal and Boa Vista from four UK airports: Gatwick, Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow. Flying times to both islands are around 5.5 hours.
Cape Verde Holidays: All Inclusive resorts on Sal.
All of the all inclusive hotels in Sal are located in the small town of Santa Maria, situated on the Southern most tip of the island and surrounded on all sides by the Atlantic Ocean. Although it is a small settlement, Santa Maria has some of the most spectacular beaches in Sal. The warm waters of the Atlantic are great for surfers, divers and deep sea fishing, as well as beach lovers. There are six all inclusive resorts on Sal:-

All Inclusive holidays to Cape Verde: Boa Vista.
Boa Vista is the less well developed island in terms of tourism with fewer choices when it comes to hotels. However, what it lacks in choice and development is sure makes up for in terms of scenery. The coastline is deserted and spectacular; littered with shipwrecks and snorkelling opportunities. It is not uncommon to find a deserted beach completely to yourself. If you are more into exploring the inland areas of the island; there are plenty of ghost towns to explore, as well as the magnificent sand dunes that cover the island.
The hotels are located around the Sal Rei area and have a huge stretch of beach which to relax on. Again, the choice of accommodation is limited but it is sure to expand in the coming years.
