Elba Sara Beach and Golf Resort

"I was booked in to the hotel quickly. I had requested a sea view, 425 has that. Every time I went to the reception the staff were most friendly and helpful. My room was a standard one, plenty of space for storage, clean and comfortable. A walk in powerful shower. Towels changed as needed. The room was serviced every day. I only used one of the pools, the heated one. Be carful around the pool the floors can be very slippery. The pool bar was good, however queues could build up at the bar. All the food available there was covered. The sun loungers aren’t comfortable at all. I was staying for 10 nights. The restaurant appeared to be working a seven day rotation of menu. Unfortunately the food on offer wasn’t 4*. I must say the breakfast is great, especially the omelettes. The drinks available on AI have many international brands to choose from. Evening entertainment for adults wasn’t what I expected, again a 7 day rotation. Entertainment for the children was very good, they are the target group."

"First time visiting Fuerte Ventura. The hotel is lovely, the staff are all friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the food at the buffet restaurant, lots of choice for breakfast and good gluten and dairy free options at breakfast. Lunch was quite similar most days but we still enjoyed it. Dinner was excellent, lots of choice even for my super picky child. There was always pasta, pizza and chips etc even on the nights when she didn’t like the other options. Only thing I would add would be some gluten free bread/rolls for lunch and evening would be really nice. Chocolate fountain twice in the week went down very very well with the kids! (And adults) However, tex-mex restaurant in the “a la carte” was a huge disappointment. It was set up in the pool bar and the food was awful! The tex mex night at the buffet had been so good we were really looking forward to it, but it was cold, greasy and tasteless. We left most of it and went out instead. Drinks on the all inclusive were ok, Sangria varied from bar to bar but we enjoyed it. The rooms were large and clean, we had 3 adults and 2 teenagers staying and had plenty of room. Rooms were cleaned daily. Pool was a little chilly but you quickly got used to it and it was the last week of October so not surprised. The hotel is right by the beach, which was lovely and clean and we saw lots of fish swimming in the sea. Easy walk along the sea front to the shops and bars. We also hired electric scooters from just outside the hotel which was fun. Would definitely recommend and would return."

"We had the best time at this hotel. It was our first holiday abroad as a family and our boys (4 and 6) loved every minute at the hotel! Kids club was great, the kids pool was perfect, warm and extremely safe. The food was really fresh and great quality, drinks were plentiful! And the staff were brilliant, room was clean and spacious, we couldn’t fault the hotel at all. Thank you for a lovely stay!"
