Our flagship hotel

As the first hotel of its caliber in the region, AURE Calhau is crafted for discerning travelers who prioritize sustainability, local culture, and exclusivity. With Cabo Verde’s tourism on the rise, our property is strategically positioned to succeed, appealing to a market that seeks both luxury and meaningful, authentic experiences.

The existing neoeclectic property, sitting on a 2000 m2, will undergo a complete transformative redesign. The renovated site will elevate the space into a sanctuary with seafront access and volcanic mountain views on the opposite side.

  • In today's global hospitality landscape, there exists a critical issue characterized by a noticeable shortage of quality hospitality services in lesser-known destinations around the world. While major tourist hubs continue to thrive, numerous countries, cities, and towns that are less traveled remain overlooked and underserved in terms of accommodation and tourism infrastructure. This imbalance not only limits the potential for economic growth in these areas but also denies travelers the opportunity to explore and experience the rich cultural and natural diversity these lesser-known places have to offer.

    Compounding this challenge is a significant skills gap within these communities, particularly in hospitality and tourism. Many underserved regions lack access to the training and resources necessary to build a strong, capable workforce in this industry. Through the AURE Foundation, we aim to bridge this gap by empowering local talent, particularly women and girls, with the skills and opportunities needed to thrive in hospitality. By addressing this disparity, we create pathways for sustainable development and meaningful economic impact.

  • In order to address this market gap, AURE develops boutique hotels & offerings that integrate luxury hospitality with a deep respect for local culture, sustainable development, and community commitment. Our approach prioritizes thoughtfully designed accommodations and unique opportunities that harmonize with each destination’s natural and cultural landscape.

    We are dedicated to making a positive impact in our communities, using tourism as a catalyst for meaningful growth and development rather than merely attracting visitors.

    Through this model, we redefine the hospitality landscape creating destinations that are both highly sought-after by travelers and deeply beneficial to the regions and communities we serve.

  • As travelers increasingly seek unique and authentic experiences beyond popular tourist spots, Cabo Verde stands out as an emerging destination with immense potential. The growth in tourism and investment in Cabo Verde over recent years has positioned it as a promising market for hospitality ventures, especially in underexplored areas.

    Our flagship hotel, will leverage this trend by entering a market ripe for high-quality accommodations that cater to discerning travelers. With a rich cultural heritage, breathtaking landscapes, and an upward trajectory in visitor interest, it is an ideal environment for us to establish ourselves as a leader in the luxury boutique segment.
