Stunning Opening Night at the Tortuga Beach and Spa Resort overshadowed by....

Snagging Overseas joins Top Dance group “Diversity!”

Oh yes..I did a windmill, the worm and a moonwalk and Snags your uncle I was in!

Big shout to Jamie McNaughton and the boys – a great group of very grounded chaps showing that Britain does indeed have some very special talent. Keep the Faith and fly that flag boys! Check out their superb routine on YouTube Tortuga Cape Verde opening night.

With his Excellency the Prime Minister officially opening the Resort along with the Resort Group Chairman Mr. Rob Jarrett the dignitaries were many and plentiful. The warm environment mixed with the congenial company of people enjoying the tranquility of the resort along with a weekend long complementary bar all created a wonderful fun filled atmosphere!!

It was a truly memorable few days with a host of quality bands and sounds in the resort and out onto the spectacular “Bond “like Stage set on the beach. (and my word that was a bugger to snag!) This stage was definitely set for something reminiscent of the beach parties in Ibiza and none other than the legend that is DJ superstar Danny Rampling was at the tables on both Saturday and Sunday night. Another top chap and check out Danny’s website http://www.dannyrampling.com/. I’ve not stopped listening to the Pink Pigeon since I returned!  Also conducting some tunes over the weekend was the gorgeous Sophie Ellis Baxter, the band E2, mixed occasssionally with delightful melodic Cabo Verdean sounds and the mood was set for a very quite Monday morning!

Representatives of the Sol Melia Group were in abundance as it has now taking over control of the Resort. Having first worked with the Melia group in Cuba in 1994 I am sure that its work ethic will provide a great success not only for the Owners who have purchased in Tortuga but for the whole of the Cabo Verde Archipelago.

We are now taking bookings for the snagging inspections in Dunas which will be operational in July so please sure you get your forms to us to qualify for the Spring Price Buster!  

From my rekey to the Paradise Beach Resort the first inspections are immenitmet as are the inspections for the Tropical Resort.

More to follow with news on Vila Verde where I stayed for 6 days!

In the meantime watch out for Diversity, listen to Danny and have a snag free week!
