Is the hotel worth it? Our review

Totally! The hotel’s wide-open spaces and soothing ambience won us over. As soon as we arrived, we were struck by the sense of infinity that emanated from the surroundings. The incredible landscape was an invitation to contemplation and relaxation. The hotel’s swimming pool had a huge bay window that looked out directly onto the sea and the horizon. Enjoy a swim while admiring the breathtaking view! One of the strengths of this establishment was its layout, which emphasized space and tranquility.

What’s more, it’s just a 20-minute walk from the city center. You’ll have easy access to Corralejo’s stores, restaurants and entertainment. For the explorers among you, it lies on the edge of the Dunes Natural Park. Take a look at our article on must-do activities in the city.

Decoration and atmosphere

The hotel’s architecture blended perfectly with the island’s landscape. We found the decor simple and uncluttered. It highlighted the surrounding nature, and created a relaxing atmosphere. The omnipresent white of the floor and walls contrasted with the blue of the ocean in the background. The numerous interplays of transparency gave the place a lot of cachet.

The modern furniture and soft colors soothed us. We found the atmosphere cosy and comforting. Within the establishment, the spaces were spacious and pleasant, and there was a great deal of peace and quiet. In our opinion, it was the ideal place to recharge your batteries and enjoy the charm of Fuerteventura. Lost between the sea and the dunes, the scenery was breathtaking!

The room

We really liked the sober, elegant decor of the room. In shades of white and blue, reminiscent of the sea, we found the place welcoming and friendly. There were a few original touches. We noticed the pretty textured headboard, the geometrically patterned cushions, and the comfortable, colorful armchairs in the corner of the room. Long sheers in neutral colors also brought warmth to the space.

The real highlight of the room was the large bay window opening onto a charming balcony. We were impressed by the exceptional landscape in front of us. The Atlantic Ocean stretched out before us, and we could even make out the island of Lobos on the horizon. We could also contemplate the first dunes of the Corralejo Natural Park.

The bathroom

The bathroom was open to the night space, and featured a large transparent window that let the light in. It was equipped with a shower with a fairly large showerhead, which made for a pleasant experience. While you shower, enjoy the view through the room’s bay window. But don’t forget to draw the curtains if you don’t want your neighbors to see you naked!

The breakfast

The hotel’s breakfast takes the form of a varied and tasty buffet. Between the sweet and savoury products on offer, you’ll find plenty to enjoy! You’ll find a wide choice of hot and cold dishes, pastries, fresh orange juice and hot drinks. The room where it is served is entirely glazed and offers a breathtaking view of the ocean. A gourmet awakening in a unique setting!

Calu restaurant and tapas bar: Italian refinement and authenticity on your plate,
Restaurant D Vales Bay: a fusion of Japanese gastronomy and Spanish culinary traditions.
