14 Night Cape Verde: Slow Down & Embrace Island Life in Luxury 🏝️

This TUI escape is all about slowing things down. 14 nights at the 5-star Hotel Riu Palace Santa Maria, departing Manchester on 1 October (other dates and departures available - price may vary), giving you plenty of time to settle into some proper Cape Verde sunshine.

What we like about this one is the balance between laid-back luxury and plenty to do. There are six pools, including adults-only swim-up bars, a waterpark for when you fancy something a little more lively and a sandy beach right outside the resort. Add in watersports, a spa and five restaurants offering plenty of choice, and you can make the holiday as relaxed or as active as you like. The resort also has an excellent 4.4/5 TripAdvisor rating, which is a nice bit of reassurance that the experience lives up to the setting.

The timing works nicely too. With average temperatures around 27°C in October, you can swap the unpredictable UK weather for long, warm days by the pool or beach, with plenty of opportunity to get out on the water or simply enjoy doing very little.

Important: Use code SAVE100 when booking to save £100 off the total price.

With 14 nights of Cape Verde sunshine, a 5-star resort that gives you plenty of ways to spend your days and a price that feels surprisingly sensible for what’s on offer, we think this one gets the luxury-to-price ratio spot on.
