Family time in Fuerteventura

I have just returned from another fabulous holiday staying at the Sheraton Fuerteventura Beach, Golf & Spa resort hotel. The 5* Sheraton is perfectly located on the beach and is just a short walk from the centre of Costa Calleta along the promenade. There are two big pools and a smaller children’s pool this and 1 of the bigger pools are heated in the winter months & are really warm pools. The hotel has a wide range of facilities to suit everyone the adults can take part in fitness classes on the hour every hour (between 10am-5pm) I took park in 3 yoga classes which were held on the beach and the relaxation at the end listening to the sound of the waves was complete bliss. The children are entertained by Geni and Alex who have ran the kids club for the last 6 years getting children involved in a range of activities. My children’s favourite activity was the children’s daily aqua disco in the pool followed closely by the children’s disco every evening and then a movie with popcorn provided! Teenagers up to the age of 16 are also well looked after with their own activity programme. We chose to stay on a bed and breakfast basis and ate out in lots of the local restaurants (15 been our favourite) however I chatted to lots of guests staying on a half board basis who spoke highly of the evening meals offering a different buffet theme every eve, you can chose to eat in the a la carte La Faro (Mediterranean) or Zen (Asian) at a supplement. On an evening the place to be is the lobby bar, you’ll be entertained my singers/musicians while enjoying your favourite tipple! The hotel has 266 rooms and suites, we stayed in a deluxe family (room 429) which had a beautiful sea view and furnished in elegant Canarian style with 1 double and 2 twin beds for my children with a large balcony. The Hesperides Thalassa Spa offers a range of facilities as well as a well-equipped gym (payable locally) Sheraton guests also have preferential access to the golf course and various golf/hotel packages can be pre-booked. We hired a car for the day and explored the north of the island stopping off at the stunning sand dunes my children particularly enjoyed rolling down them! We then went onto visit the bigger resort of Corralejo stopping for lunch before heading to a small fishing village of El Cortilla a fabulous day was had by all. We love this island and especially the Sheraton and I’m sure we will be back for 3rd stay! Thank you for reading my travel journal and please get in touch for more details.
