Hotels in Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura Hotels

Fuerteventura, the second largest of the Canary islands, boasts vast golden beaches studded with palms and pink flowers, and endless amber-coloured volcanic plains that slope throughout the rocky countryside, past old-world villages and ending at green-washed resort towns. While each resort town offers something different for everyone, from the pulsing beats of buzzing neon-lit nightlife to calm uncrowded beaches and family-friendly activities, they all offer equally magical views across the sun-kissed turquoise ocean waters.

Things to see

Visit Corralejo, a large resort town that has maintained a historical centre, where the narrow streets are strung with white-washed fisherman’s houses, looming palms and traditional market stalls. Running alongside the beachfront, an expansive promenade thrums with the bustling energy of cool outdoor cafés, seafood restaurants and relaxed bars. But Corralejo’s most memorable sight is the miles-long stretch of tall, soft sand dunes. For a taste of traditional local living, head to the western village of Betanicuria. Set in majestically mountainous surroundings, Betanicuria’s small streets are stippled with tiny white-stone chapels and green spaces awash with pink and red flora. After a day soaking in the honey-like rays in this small village, take the short 13 mile trip to Fuerteventura’s capital - Porto del Rosario. Here you’ll find endless entertainment, from the boat-studded harbour and wide beachfront to the diverse nightlife of live Tango music and electrifying clubs.

Hotels in Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura’s wide range of resort accommodation suits all types of holiday. If you’re looking for a lavishly luxurious sun-washed holiday, where relaxing by the pool and catching rays on the beach are top priority, then the 4 and 5-star resort hotels - complete with butler-like service and enormous rooms - are ideal. For a fun-filled family getaway, Fuerteventura hotels offer fine 3-star service, double rooms with large en-suites, and organised events for the children. Fuerteventura also offers a number of rural, old-fashioned and independently run hotels for those seeking a unique holiday immersed in the local culture.

Where to stay

Corralejo is an ideal place to stay for those seeking a beautifully balanced blend of all that Fuerteventura has to offer, with a historic old-town, epic beaches, and streets that echo with the sound of soft-strummed guitars. Corralejo is also ideal for thrill-seeking water-sports enthusiasts, with dozens of companies ready to take you across the waves. Porto del Rosario is an endlessly exciting city to stay in for lovers of electrifying nightlife and indulgent days of lying on the beach. For a more family-friendly resort town, with tranquil streets and peaceful beaches, stay in southern Morro Jable.

How to get to Fuerteventura

The easiest way to get to Fuerteventura is by air. Descend through the cloudless skies, gently land into Fuerteventura Airport, and feel the warm balmy air embrace you as you step off the plane. The airport provides year-round regular and affordable flights to many key European destinations. Once at the airport, either hop on a comfy shuttle bus or rent a cab, and sit back and relax as you’re driven through the mountainous countryside to your destination. Fuerteventura’s small size means that most cabs and buses provide services throughout the island, but for complete freedom to explore, rent your own car.
