Sal Island is home to a wide variety of accommodation options, from luxury beachfront resorts to boutique hotels and fully equipped holiday apartments, making it easy to accommodate guests with different budgets and travel preferences.
Planning a destination wedding in Cape Verde is about much more than choosing the perfect ceremony location. One of the most important decisions is ensuring your guests enjoy a comfortable and memorable stay throughout their visit.
Whether you’re inviting close family or organising a celebration with dozens of guests travelling from abroad, choosing the right accommodation can make a significant difference to the overall experience.
At Sal Island Weddings by Get Married, we help every couple find the most suitable accommodation options according to their wedding venue, guest profile and budget.

- Direct beach access
- Swimming pools and spa facilities
- Restaurants and bars
- All-inclusive packages

- Concierge services
These properties are particularly popular for destination weddings because they allow guests to combine the celebration with a relaxing holiday.

Boutique Hotels
Some couples prefer a more intimate and authentic atmosphere.
Boutique hotels provide:
- Smaller and quieter environments
- Personalised service
- Charming architecture
- Easy access to Santa Maria
- A more local Cape Verde experience
These properties are often ideal for smaller destination weddings or couples looking for a relaxed setting close to restaurants, cafés and the beach.
Private Apartments & Holiday Homes
Not every guest wants to stay in a resort.
Families travelling with children, groups of friends or guests staying for a longer period often prefer the flexibility of a fully equipped apartment or private holiday home.
Advantages include:
- More space
- Kitchen facilities
- Living areas
- Better value for longer stays
- Greater privacy
- Perfect for families and groups
For many destination weddings, combining resort accommodation with private apartments gives guests more choice while keeping everyone close to the wedding venue.
Accommodation for Large Wedding Groups
When organising weddings with 40, 60 or even over 100 guests, accommodation planning becomes especially important.
Our role is to help couples:
- recommend suitable accommodation options;
- organise guests according to their preferences;
- minimise travel time on the wedding day;
- ensure everyone enjoys a comfortable stay.
Good accommodation planning creates a smoother experience for both the couple and their guests.
