Adults-only VIP Level stay

Please note that from Monday 12th October 2026, Melia Laguna Beach Resort and Melia Llana Beach Resort & Spa will become one hotel – the Melia Llana. Booking for Winter 2026 or Summer 2027? Head to the Melia Llana Club Lagoon Premium VIP page

Pulled right up to the sandy shoreline on the coast of Sal, the Melia Laguna is a breezy beach break that's perfect for a grown-up (16+) crowd. And it makes a great base for discovering Cape Verde's charm, as it's just five minutes' drive from the picturesque town of Santa Maria.

So, let’s talk facilities. There are two pools here– one that’s all about activities, and a second spot that’s just about relaxing. Speaking of, the spa is all about the R&R, with a sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi, Turkish bath, and a menu of massages that might just tempt you.

Four restaurants means plenty of choice on the foodie front. The main buffet spot dishes up spreads of international fare, show-cooking, and a terrace with sea view, while elsewhere you’ll find an Italian eatery, a Mediterranean restaurant, and the jewel in the crown: the Teppanyaki joint. There’s a snack bar pitched up by the pool, too, and a trio of other watering holes to ensure you’re never too far from a cocktail.
