Where should I stay if I am a music fan?

Mindelo on the island of Sao Vincente is the intellectual and cultural capital of the archipelago and the place to seek out live music amongst the ubiquitous international pop music. Sao Vincente does not get a lot of rainfall and the countryside is not as green and attractive as some of the other islands so consider booking a city centre hotel such as the Casa Colonial Mindelo through KAYAK to experience the buzz of Mindelo nightlife and appreciate the simple elegance of nineteenth-century Portuguese architecture, or take a look at Kira’s Boutique Hotel near the powder-white sands of Mindelo Beach. Visit our Cape Verde page for the latest deals!

Are any of the islands green and fertile?

Yes, each island even has its own distinctive weather! Some islands are windier, cooler and drier than others, especially in winter. The Leeward Islands to the south of the archipelago are warmer and wetter giving a more tropical landscape. Brava Island is especially green and fertile, covered in lush tropical fruit trees and colourful flowering shrubs – perfect for hiking. The Hotel Cruz Grande-Brava in the capital, Nova Sintra can be booked through KAYAK. Visit our Cape Verde page for the latest deals!

Can I avoid taking a second flight between islands after I arrive?

Yes, you can. You will almost certainly fly into the island of Sal, and it is perfectly possible to avoid internal flights by spending your holiday on that island. Book a hotel such as Casa Blu on Sal Island and you’ll be less than 15min on foot from the fabulous Santa Maria beach: you’ll be swimming, surfing and even game fishing during the day, and eating fresh seafood and Portuguese cakes and pastries in the evening.

There are twelve islands and islets in the Cape Verde Archipelago, of which nine are permanently inhabited and we advise you to research the islands before booking a hotel because there are some fascinating differences between the various islands. In other words, choose a hotel that suits you, on an island that suits you.
Take Fogo, an actively smouldering volcano rising almost 3,000 feet above the sea and therefore one of the most distinctive islands. If you like the idea of exploring the stark beauty of the steep slopes and gravelly volcanic ash then Fogo might be the island for you. Book a sustainably run hotel such as the Fora Ecolodge through KAYAK to enjoy peace and tranquillity, stunningly beautiful views and delicious food just a 15-min drive from the pastel-coloured houses of the capital, Sao Filipe.
There is only one place for sea bathing on Fogo; on the other hand, the island of Sal is a beach-lovers’ paradise with white/golden sandy beaches lapped by crystal clear water. People come to Sal from all over the world to enjoy diving and surfing as well as swimming and sun-bathing. Book a simple seaside hotel such as the Oasis Belorizonte through KAYAK and settle down for a perfect beach holiday with perhaps a few side trips to the salt pools or the restaurants of Praia.
If you’re looking for a cheap hotel in Cape Verde, you should consider visiting during the low season. You'll find cheaper accommodations in Cape Verde in February and July.
Hotel room prices vary depending on many factors but you’ll most likely find the best hotel deals in Cape Verde if you stay on a Tuesday. The opposite is true for, Saturday, which is usually the most expensive day.
The cheapest 3-star hotel room in Cape Verde found on KAYAK in the last 2 weeks was 23 €, while the most expensive was 178 €.
How long should you stay? KAYAK users usually book their accommodation in Cape Verde for 6 days.

Mindelo on the island of Sao Vincente is the intellectual and cultural capital of the archipelago and the place to seek out live music amongst the ubiquitous international pop music. Sao Vincente does not get a lot of rainfall and the countryside is not as green and attractive as some of the other islands so consider booking a city centre hotel such as the Casa Colonial Mindelo through KAYAK to experience the buzz of Mindelo nightlife and appreciate the simple elegance of nineteenth-century Portuguese architecture, or take a look at Kira’s Boutique Hotel near the powder-white sands of Mindelo Beach.
