Georgette, a life of vision, courage, and inspirations

The History of Georgette Group

Miss Georgette was born and raised in Mindelo, known as the music island of Cape Verde. The first child of the legendary boxing champion “Titino the Boxer,” Georgette inherited her father’s fearless spirit, intuitive business sense, and generous heart. From an early age, she dreamed big, always aware of the opportunities that could be created where others saw gaps.

In the early 1970s, her father sent her to Europe, where she at once entered the hospitality world. Starting in a small family-run B&B and later moving on to work at a prestigious hotel in Rotterdam, Netherlands, Georgette quickly gained valuable experience. Her drive and dedication led her to invest in real estate across Europe and Cabo Verde, always with the goal of helping others—especially fellow Cape Verdeans—and providing her children with a broad, global outlook through travel.

After decades of successful ventures, Georgette returned to Cabo Verde with a vision. She founded The Georgette Group, a family company focused on tourism, offering unique accommodations and exclusive experiences. The group was a success from the very beginning. Known for its distinctive @home experience, attention to detail, and unmatched hospitality, the group quickly became a top player in the tourism sector, earning rave reviews and high rankings.

Georgette stands as a symbol of resilience, strength, elegance, and empowerment—an independent woman who overcame adversity through faith, vision, and a deep belief in her purpose.

The Projects of Georgette Group

@Georgette Mindelo Guest House

Upon returning to Cabo Verde, Georgette’s first project was the @georgette Mindelo Guest House. Located in a welcoming setting, the guest house quickly gained a stellar reputation due to the exceptional hospitality, comfort, and personal attention Georgette offered each guest. It became more than just a place to stay—it was a home away from home.

Boat Trips, Island Tours & Transfers

In 2019, Georgette Group expanded its range of services by investing in a magnificent boat with capacity for 12 guests, offering exclusive boat trips along the stunning coastline of Mindelo. At sea, guests enjoyed unforgettable experiences, discovering hidden coves and breathtaking views. On land, Georgette organized island tours that showcased the cultural richness and natural beauty of the city and the island, creating truly memorable journeys. To complete the experience, the company also provided reliable airport transfers, ensuring guests a smooth and welcoming arrival at the guesthouse.

Hotel Château Georgette

Building on this success, Georgette launched her most ambitious concept yet, Hotel Château Georgette, a castle-themed boutique hotel nestled in the breathtaking Valley of Paul, on the island of Santo Antão, where her grandfather, Master Kunk, was born. The hotel reflects Georgette’s personal motto: “Nothing is too much.” Château Georgette offers an immersive experience of comfort, style, and soul, merging luxury with heartfelt hospitality.
Currently, Château Georgette is expanding with a new apart-hotel featuring five luxurious suites, enhancing its offerings while staying true to its intimate, personalized charm.
