I would really like to go a short-break holiday (5-7 days), to some sort of small boutique wellness hotel abroad between January and April. Warm, simple shortish haul, cheapish with spa treatments, pilates, massages that sort of thing. Saw a nice eco lodge place on the beach in Cape Verde however no direct flights from UK.
Anyone got some inspiration?

Which island in Cape Verde? TUI Airlines fly direct from UK to Sal and Boa Vista.

I've never been but I read about White Suites Lanzarote and vowed to myself that I'd go there one day.

I think you can also book as a package with jet2 etc so worth comparing options if you like the look of it.

For a warm and relaxing wellness break, have you considered the Canary Islands? They’re short-haul from the UK, offer great weather, and have lots of boutique wellness hotels with spas and yoga/pilates classes. Tenerife or Lanzarote might be perfect for what you’re looking for, and they often have reasonably priced packages. Hope you find the perfect spot!

Yes I am after something on the Canary Islands ideally, however can't seem to find places, perhaps because all the booking sites prioritise the big mega hotels, which is what I don't want.

Haven't used this site but maybe you need a more specialist site bookretreats.com/s/wellness-retreats/canary-

I have noticed that place, have you been?
