Alua Suites Fuerteventura

"Just returned from a week at this hotel. It's 40 minutes from the airport. Sadly i think there are more negatives than positives. The location is great, right near popcorn beach and a 20 minute walk to the town/bars/restaurants with beach bars in route. It's also a walk away from the water park and we walked to the grande playa which was a gorgeous beach. The hotel had a really chilled feeling. We had a 2 bedroom apartment, the beds were so comfortable and we were really happy with our room. Our friends had a 1 bed and complained of how bad the shabby decorating was, like they couldn't be bothered to finish it properly with knats splatted all over the walls. There was also blood on the sheets that got changed once they spoke to reception. Not up to standard. We found the staff (with a couple of exceptions) to be moody. The activity team were lovely though. The main pool , you can only get drinks in the lunch restaurant which means covering up or you can walk to another pool to the tropic bar to get a drink. Not enough bars here. Drinks weren't great, the coke and lemonade were mainly flat. The main beer is San Miguel so we all stuck with that. If you wanted an Aperol Spritz you had to pay. No bottled water, just water stations. We could always get sun beds, towels are €20 each deposit My son liked the volley ball/ basket ball area. The hotel grounds are nice and kept well. The food was your typical spanish hotel buffet. I'm vegetarian and struggled so lived in pizza and chips most of the holiday. There are a couple of veggie options but not things i liked. We all felt the food was ok, had a canteen feel. Definitely had better. There is 1 al a carte which we all liked and made a nice change. You have to book that on the morning of the day you want to go. The evening entertainment had some great singers but we felt the evening area wasn't big enough. All in all it's put us off doing all inclusive anymore. This area you'd be better off staying self catering and going out as it's so close to the town. We preferred going out of the hotel and spent more money out than we normally would at an all inclusive so that says a lot. We all had a nice holiday and for me the beds were the best bit"

"I found the check in on the evening we arrived very welcoming. It was a clean hotel with an excellent selection of foods for all tastes. There was never a scramble for a sun lounger and we found all the hotel staff very friendly. The location, for us, was far enough away from the town centre for a nice evening stroll. Our room was tended to daily by hotel staff. Only thing I would change with the room is the open second bedroom, I'd probably put a door on it but other than that we found our stay welcoming and enjoyable."

"Beautiful resort. MFC recommended. Unfortunately, no tennis courts are available. Lovely sunbeds by the MFC pool. This was the second time for us and the weather was very good again."
