Many people know it or have heard of it. But perhaps few know that this original model of hospitality was conceived in Italy, and has gradually established itself in many countries around the world. What is it in practice? There are various forms of widespread hospitality , in any case we are always talking about accommodations located in multiple points of an urban center, managed with a centralized booking and reception system, where guests who do not like staying in a hotel, or who want to try different solutions, can still find services similar to those of a hotel and live in contact with the residents . Therefore, all the freedom of living in a "home of your own", adequately equipped, even for just a week, and at the same time enjoy, for example, breakfast in your room or in partner locations, cleaning, the organization of visits and excursions, car reservations, etc.

I Love Boavista offers the opportunity of widespread hospitality with the ILB Widespread Hotel formula , which provides customers with excellent furnished apartments in different areas of the capital Sal Rei in Boa Vista. They are booked like a normal hotel room and are given to guests with all the comforts necessary for a carefree stay, along with a welcome kit including, among other things, tea, coffee, mineral water, dish detergent.
The IlB Fan Card many services and discount possibilities and a reserved beach
In addition, I Love Boavista offers the ILB Fan Card , which gives you the opportunity to enjoy many services. Such as transfers (from/to the airport or port) and luggage services, house cleaning and shopping, dedicated concierge service, travel agency services and excursions, breakfast at partner restaurants or served in the apartment, and many others.
ILB apartments are of three types, to satisfy the different preferences of guests. There is the Sport Selection , perfect for water sports lovers, with accommodations just a few steps from the beach. Very comfortable 30 m2 studios with private balcony, to unwind after a day on the ocean waves. The Smart Collection is the young choice, for comfortable apartments of different sizes in a building strategically located between the center and the most beautiful beaches of Sal Rei: authenticity and the possibility of socializing, to experience the essence of the island. The sea is the protagonist in the Comfort Zone , excellent apartments of at least 60 m2 with private terrace, facing the ocean. The beach is 20 meters away, the throb of the surf lulls you at night and provides relaxation during the day. Ideal for families and for those who want to fill up on sun, breeze and blue as far as the eye can see.
One of the most exciting sights: humpback whales jumping!
And by booking with ILB you can create your own “tailor-made” holiday with activities, tours and excursions on the island, being able to satisfy the professionalism and hospitality of all the staff.
For example, you can book kite and windsurfing courses, and even Hydro Foil, rent equipment or store yours, book horseback rides, live a day like a “cabrer” by testing yourself in making goat cheese or a terracotta workshop or even learn the secrets of cachupa, the traditional Cape Verdean dish and learn the first moves of capoeira.
Cachupa is the typical dish of Cape Verde. In addition to tasting it, perhaps at Bia, you can learn how to cook it. ph courtesy @annaconsiliaalemanno
And for those who want to take advantage of it for a remise en forme, massages in cabins on the beach or pampered by the wind and expert hands, pilates and yoga sessions. And of course those that are the must haves: witnessing the Caretta-caretta turtles laying eggs from July to the end of September and the spectacle of humpback whales jumping and puffing just off the coast, from February to May.
To discover the island, there are off-road tours with a driver, in a caravan with quads or buggies, or to rent individually, and for the more daring trekking routes (but there are many walking excursions suitable for everyone).
