Holiday Reviews for Fuerteventura
"My Holiday In Fuerteventura at the Jandia princess"
Weather : We had 7 days great weather with only 2 afternoons which clouded pver.
The temperature was around 72 degees all week but when in the sun and out of the wind felt much warmer. got a great tan.
Holiday : We have just returned from our 3rd winter break at this hotel.
Once again the whole holiday has been great.
We were welcomed with a bottle of Champagne in our room as returning guests. Not a great deal in an all inclusive hotel but it shows some thought has gone into it. We requested (by e-mail) a room in a certain area of the hotel and got exactly the one I asked for. (7301 great views of sea pool area and coast line towards sotavento beach.)I posted a review of this hotel 2 years ago and was amazed when I read some of the reviews on this and other sites regarding the refurbishment of the pool areas. I found that it was done in such a way that it caused little or no problem. There is so much space around the pool area that you can be away from any work area as these were closed off areas anyway.
This hotel is open all year round so how people expect this routine maintenance to be carried out is beyond me.
The food is varied and very good it offers a wide range and caters for all tastes.
People have also commented on how the Germans seem to dominate the place, they are the majority but are not any different than anyone else on holiday there.
There is an area at the bottom end of the pool areas that is sectioned off and is designated as a naturist area. There is also a sauna and steam room for guests in this area. No one bothers if you go in there keep you shorts or bathing costume on, but some protocol is expected.(sit or lie on a towel with feet on it as well, to absorb sweat) I feel this should be stated at the welcome meeting to save any embarrassment.
The walk to Jandia is fantastic along the beach. You can feed the chipmunks along the way.
Jandia is a resort that caters mainly for Germans but a bar with a beer is a bar with a beer.
The entertainment in the hotel this year was better than last with a Drifters tribute, Tropicana dancers and a comedy Acrobat troop that were good, we gave the Animation teams efforts a miss and enjoyed a beer in the Coco Loco Bar (thanks Eric)
This hotel is great for anyone looking to chill out and relax for a week. I would not think it would suit teenagers looking for some lively entertainment, but for a winter break it fits the bill to a tee.
Places Recommended : Jandia village and Morro Jable
Recommend Fuerteventura to others : Yes
