Why stay at the Hotel Innside Fuerteventura Costa Calma?

This accommodation is an excellent choice for a vacation in the heart of the wilderness, in a serene atmosphere. It’s a real favorite, and we’ve listed it among the best hotels in Fuerteventura. In our opinion, these are its 3 main assets:

Magnificent views: the hotel boasts spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and Playa de Sotavento de Jandía. The establishment’s open architecture also allows you to enjoy the surrounding nature, the arid hills that seem very wild.

An impressive swimming pool: the hotel’s large outdoor infinity pool is surrounded by sun loungers and parasols. Its very long length makes it ideal for swimming while enjoying the view.

Access to the beach and numerous activities: the hotel is located right on the beach. It’s the perfect place for sporting activities. This establishment understands this and offers windsurfing and yoga classes!

Is the Hotel Innside Fuerteventura Costa Calma worth it? Our review

We highly recommend this hotel! We were delighted with our stay. Surrounded by wilderness and magnificent views, we felt cut off from the world. The bohemian chic decor accentuated our feeling of being in a cocoon of serenity. We enjoyed the activities on offer, the splendid infinity pool and the buffet restaurant where we found good, healthy food. For all these reasons, this human-sized hotel is well worth the effort! In fact, we’ve listed it among the best hotels in Costa Calma.

Decoration and atmosphere

We particularly liked the decor and ambience of this establishment. That’s one of the reasons why we’ve listed it among the best boutique hotels in Fuerteventura. Its contemporary, open architecture allowed us to take full advantage of the surrounding wilderness. This atmosphere of harmony and serenity was accentuated by the exotic plants (palms, cacti) and bohemian chic decor. This was reflected in the use of natural materials (wood, rattan, leather, sea rush), contemporary furniture and soft colors in shades of green and beige.

Watercolor-effect paintings on many of the seats added a touch of character and a warm atmosphere.

The establishment was dotted with houseplants but also cacti, and recycled-looking, or very simple, workshop-style furniture. It gave us the impression of being in a place that was simple, respectful of nature, yet comfortable. In any case, this decoration is, in our opinion, the hallmark of this hotel!

PLAN YOUR STAY IN Costa Calma

The room

We rediscovered the relaxing atmosphere of the common areas in our room! The soft colors, wood and rattan lent a warm ambience to our room. We particularly liked the softly lit floor lamps, the sitting area with its comfortable curved armchair, and the small wooden table that added a touch of character to the room. The vintage telephone on our bedside table, whose blue color matched the seat of the armchair, accentuated the room’s cocooning ambience.

With a wooden sculpture and a rocking chair, the vacation spirit permeated our room!

In addition to the usual amenities (minibar, ashtray…) we were pleasantly surprised to find books in a wooden crate: perfect for a reading break lulled by the sound of the waves!

Our room opened onto a large bay window giving access to the balcony. It was ideal for relaxing, as it was not overlooked and was equipped with a coffee table and 2 comfortable loungers. The view of the vastness of the beach and ocean was magnificent!

The bathroom

Our bathroom was functional and sober. It featured a spacious walk-in shower, hairdryer and even a bidet! There was tile, wood and marble all in one.

Smile brand shampoo and shower gel were available in the shower.

The towels, decorated with a wink, delighted us, contrasting with the usual classicism and coldness of many hotels!

The breakfast

Breakfast at this hotel is an all-you-can-eat buffet. We particularly appreciated the homemade, local products, such as tapas and tortillas. Being in Spain, we also had a wide choice of charcuterie. Vegetarians can also find what they’re looking for: there were vegetables, and a variety of dried fruits and cereals. There were also several types of bread, including gluten-free bread. Don’t hesitate, in this hotel, organic food has pride of place!

Those who prefer a sweet breakfast will also be satisfied with this buffet: pastries, doughnuts, muffins, waffles, cookies, there was something for everyone!

We had our breakfast inside, and the room was very pleasant with its leather bar chairs right next to the buffet: a strategic spot for refills!
