RIU began its journey in Cape Verde in 2005 with the opening of the Riu Funana hotel (now Riu Cabo Verde) on the island of Sal. Did you know that we were pioneers in this country? Well, yes, we were! The truth is that we were one of the first international hotel companies to commit to Cape Verde, which up to that moment was not the popular tourist destination it is today. Its special charm made us predict that it would have the success it deserves, and we were right! Since then, our presence in this paradise has grown and today we have a total of six hotels in the country, spread between Sal Island and Boa Vista Island.<\/p>\n

November will see the complete reactivation of the RIU hotel portfolio in Cape Verde<\/b><\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n

Just as in all the destinations where RIU operates, the country was affected by the pandemic and we had to close all six of our hotels. Little by little we have been able to resume operations and today four of our hotels are open, but the good news is not over and on 26 October the Riu Cabo Verde<\/b><\/strong> located on Sal Island will reopen, followed by the Riu Touareg<\/strong> hotel on 6 November, thereby completing the reactivation of our business in the destination. This, together with the fact that several international locations are once again flying to the islands of Boa Vista and Sal, is wonderful news for the people of Cape Verde and the destination in general, which is beginning to feel a sense of normality.<\/p>\n
