Get incredible value at these all-inclusive hotels in Fuerteventura

Sunshine flowing through the double doors of your terrace or balcony gives the guest rooms at the Suite Hotel Atlantis Fuerteventura Resort a bright, expansive feel. Suites are open-plan with additional sofa beds in the lounge, while furnished al-fresco areas add a thoughtful touch to your living quarters. When you’re ready to venture out, stroll just a few minutes to the beach, where the soft white sands will sift between your toes and the towering dunes of Corralejo Nature Park form a stunning backdrop.

All-inclusive lodgers can treat themselves to breakfast and dinnertime specialities at one of the hotel’s three on-site restaurants, each of which offers a unique perspective on local and international cookery. Start the day with scrambled eggs on toast, fruit compote or baked breads and doughnuts at the Gaudí Restaurant – the ideal pick-me-up before a day of sunbathing or exploring. In the evening, try traditional Iberian dishes at the Atrium Buffet, or savour mouth-watering sashimi, sushi or makis at the hotel’s Asian and vegetarian fusion eatery. Food is prepared in front of the diners at the latter, so you can take in the wafting aroma of spices and admire the technical prowess that characterises Asian gastronomy.

After a refreshing morning dip in one of the resort’s seven palm tree-lined swimming pools, indulge in a therapeutic facial or soul-soothing Ayurvedic massage at the Atlantis Wellness Centre, which offers personalised treatments in its five dedicated suites. Heat up your stay with a hot stone therapy, or head to the sauna for a rejuvenating wind-down after a day of indulgence.

From sweet-and-sour medleys of the Far East at the hotel’s themed eatery – any of the ten kinds of sushi on offer is a must – to the live cooking demonstrations in its buffet restaurant, the SBH Hotel Monica Beach Resort takes its patrons on a taste tour around the world. After a day on the beach (just a 2 minute walk away), unwind at Bar Africa. Here you can sit beneath thatched umbrellas and watch the evening sun glitter on the waves of the Atlantic, sipping a refreshing cocktail mixed with local honey rum. The hotel’s all-inclusive deals include meals, snacks and drinks in any of the on-site restaurants and bars, including Bar Tobogán, right next to the waterslide, where you can cradle a cold beer or a zingy black coffee and keep an eye on the kids.

Guest rooms at the SBH Hotel Monica Beach Resort pop with vibrant colours, from the multi-hued curtains and bedspreads to the warm oranges and browns of the tiles and furnishings. Large apartments offer additional flexibility; go for a meal out or walk an easy 10 minutes to the nearest supermarket and prepare a salad of juicy red tomatoes or ripe avocadoes drizzled with Verdial, a local extra-virgin olive oil, in your own fully equipped kitchen. Balconies and terraces are standard, but go the extra mile and treat yourself to a sea-view room for panoramas of the gilded Costa Calma.

Savour an energising dip in one of the hotel’s three adult pools, or, if you’re travelling with little ones, splash around in the child-friendly alternative. Leafy palm-trees provide soothing shade in the summer months, while the heated pool entices residents to take the plunge in winter.

The SBH Club Paraíso Playa boasts 317 guest rooms, each decorated with inviting earth tones and plush bedding. Relax in the bathtub at the end of the day, with the orange and sky-blue tiles reflecting the sun-drenched sands and glistening waters of Esquinzo Beach, or admire the real thing from your balcony or terrace. Floor-to-ceiling French doors let the glorious Spanish sun shine through during the day, adding a radiant feel to your suite, while spacious family options come with a lounge room and sofa bed to spread out in.

Get your pulse pounding with an exhilarating game of tennis, played against the backdrop of the Atlantic, or take turns with your partner to row, run or cycle as you watch the kids splash in the pool from the hotel’s state-of-the-art fitness centre. In the evening, challenge a friend to a game of table tennis, or shoot a game of billiards in the recreation area, before taking in one of the establishment’s daily shows. The hot tub is a peaceful place to unwind, with flourishing shrubbery providing a tranquil ambience; alternatively, stretch out on a bench in the wood-panelled steam room, where the hustle and bustle of an active family holiday melts away.

Two restaurants serve international cuisine alongside Spanish delicacies such as tapas of cured jamon and tangy Manchego cheese, colourful salads and paellas. Fuel up for the day with the hotel’s complimentary breakfast, which includes eggs and bacon as well as cereals, breads and other lighter fare. All-inclusive guests can eat and visit the entertainment shows and facilities at five other SBH hotels in the region.

Set amid lush green gardens, punctuated by towering palm trees and brightly coloured flowers that burst to life in the summer season, the R2 Romantic Fantasia Suites is ideally placed for an adults-only break. The area’s striking volcanic heritage can be admired on the nearby black-sand beach, just over 100 metres from the hotel. Lie back on one of the benches or sun loungers dotted around the hotel grounds and bask in the serene ambience of this tranquil seaside retreat.

Surrounded by leafy vegetation, craggy brown rocks and golden sands, the hotel pool offers a natural setting for a revitalising swim or an afternoon of sunbathing. For a little romance, slip into the warm bubbling waters of one of the hotel’s six Jacuzzis, which take full advantage of the impressive ocean vistas. Patrons of the hotel can use the spa at its partner establishment, the R2 Bahia Playa, meaning a sultry spell in the Finnish sauna, a soak in the Turkish baths or a gentle wind-down in the sun-drenched solarium is never more than a 2 minute walk away.

Suites at the R2 Romantic Fantasia Suites are decorated with neutral or earth tones – tranquil creams, crisp whites and bohemian browns create a welcoming atmosphere. Balconies and terraces are ideal for al-fresco afternoons with hors d’oeuvres and a sparkling glass of Cava purchased from the hotel’s mini market. When evening comes, diners can choose from Spanish and international dishes at the restaurant, then pull up a seat for a quiet digestivo in one of its several bars, or dance to the heady beat at the hotel’s own discotheque.

Stretch out on a sunbed, with gently swaying palms for shade and the splashing of the nearby pool as your soundtrack at the IFA Altamarena Hotel in Playa de Jandia. This 4-star hotel boasts two swimming pools for adults, and a third for younger visitors, complete with a waterfall shower. Each is lined with lounge chairs for basking in the celebrated Canarian sunshine. Dense shrubs add a touch of green, while the thatched umbrellas bring some authentic local character.

The hotel’s recreational area is designed for families, so get everyone together for a game of shuffleboard or petanque, or head to the court for a high-octane tennis match. Alternatively, take a stroll down to the tranquil shores of Playa de Jandia for a beach day; the flawless white sands of this iconic stretch of sealine are tailor-made for volleyball, and guests have direct access for the duration of their stay.

Each room at the IFA Altamarena Hotel is styled with plush bedding, comfortable chairs and a furnished balcony or terrace, with cream and eggshell whites lending the space a roomy, open ambience. Create a sleepover atmosphere in a large family room, where you can take in early morning views of the tropical garden and the pool from the two adjoining double beds and the living area. All-inclusive guests can have a complimentary breakfast at the buffet restaurant, featuring a kaleidoscopic array of fresh fruit, lush salads and warm baked breads. You can also keep the kids topped up throughout the day with refreshments and snacks from the hotel’s two bars, one conveniently located next to the pool.

Set among lush tropical gardens, which spring to life with vivid pinks, reds and oranges in the summer months, the all-inclusive Hotel Royal Suite prides itself on its idyllic location. A sandy beach is a short stroll away, while a 500 metre walk brings visitors to the African Market, where hand-made clothing and accessories, continental art and authentic good-luck charms are on sale. Be ready to haggle for your heart’s desire – it’s part of the experience! A little further brings you to a large shopping centre, where you can indulge in a little retail therapy before coming back to the hotel for some much-needed R&R.

The Hotel Royal Suite houses 166 guest rooms with homey wooden furniture, each with a view over the palm-lined pool or fragrant gardens. All the bedrooms have two beds, as well as a separate living area. Two pull-out couch beds are provided for larger groups or families, while a small fridge and specially adapted rooms for disabled visitors are among the thoughtful touches available.

At the pool bar, sip a refreshing sangria loaded with fruit or an ice-cold Dorade Especial (a local black beer) and sample national fare at the buffet restaurant. You’ll also benefit from the use of a sauna, Jacuzzi, gymnasium and solarium with the hotel’s all-inclusive package. Massages are available, so let your worries fade away with a reinvigorating treatment, before taking a refreshing dip in one of the two outdoor pools.

Warm reds, inviting oranges and serene whites – the colour palette of the Iberostar Playa Gaviotas Park‘s guest rooms is designed to make you feel instantly at home in your surroundings. Graced with natural sunlight coming in from your balcony or terrace, each living space comes equipped with comfortable furnishings, such as armchairs and couches, while generous bathtubs promise a relaxing soak as the day draws to a close. Admire the sunset from the balcony before letting the rhythmic crashing of the waves against the shore lull you into a deep sleep.

The Iberostar Playa Gaviotas Park’s all-inclusive meal plan includes breakfast each morning, and evening meals at the hotel’s on-site eateries. Try Canarian wreckfish at the Betancuria restaurant, or spoil your taste buds with something more exotic – ropa vieja, the national dish of Cuba, comprises slowly braised beef and vegetables smothered in a tomato-based sauce, and gently falls apart in your mouth. If you’re enamoured of Spanish cuisine, watch a cooking demonstration and bring home a tasty recipe as a memento of your stay.

After you’ve satisfied your appetite, treat yourself to some additional pampering. The hotel offers an extensive range of spa treatments, but the lomi lomi nui massage is a particular highlight. Originating in the Hawaiian islands, this therapeutic rubdown uses breathing techniques and long, fluid arm movements to detoxify and set your body, mind and spirit in harmony.
