Riu Palace Boavista

This new hotel occupies a vast estate along the beach at Boa Vista. The white palatial buildings house stylish bedrooms, designer bars and international restaurants, and all four swimming pools look out across the Atlantic Ocean. There’s a state-of-the-art gym and spa for adults, and a kids club, splash pool and playground keep the little ones entertained. You can join in snorkelling, kayaking and bodyboarding on the beach, or just snooze through the afternoon on the gorgeous sun terraces. Riu’s sister-hotel next door has a nightclub, or you can stay where you are, sip cocktails and enjoy Riu Palace Boavista’s live music and shows.

Things to do in Boa Vista, Cape Verde

The fabulous facilities, Praia das Dunas beach and nightlife at Riu Palace Boavista are more than enough to keep you entertained. But if you want to explore the island further, the town of Sal Rei is a short drive away. Stroll around the main plaza or old fishing harbour and treat yourself to a swim in the clear sheltered waters in the bay. You can book boat trips from the port to other islands in the Cape Verde archipelago, such as Santiago and Sal, or venture out after dark for a taste of rum and African nightlife.
