Alua Suites Fuerteventura - All Inclusive

Alua Suites Fuerteventura sits in a fantastic location on the north coast of Fuerteventura, next to the incredible dunes of Corralejo (1.5km) and just 50m from the ‘popcorn’ beach, Playa Vista Lobos (aka Sunset Lounge). You’re also only 20 minutes on foot from the swanky bars and restaurants of Corralejo town.

Surrounded by tropical gardens, this luxurious whitewashed hotel looks like a Moorish palace, bejewelled with eight pools (including two for kids and one for tiny tots). Grown-ups can upgrade to My Favourite Club for exclusive access to two pools, complete with Bali beds, in the adult’s area. When you’re not soaking up the sunshine with a cocktail in hand, there’s plenty to keep you busy. You could show off your topspin on the floodlit tennis courts, join in a game of volleyball, get competitive with five-a-side football and water polo, or stretch out on the yoga mat. If you really want to pick up the pace, you can book water sports at the Beach Club or take your workout to the onsite fitness suite.

Travelling with kids in tow? Your little ones will love the hotel’s vibrant playground and kids’ club (4-12 years). They’ll be able to get crafty with creative cooking workshops, join in with carnival-style fun, sing, play sports and get their faces painted. And when they’re busy making new friends, you can unwind in the hotel spa, with two saunas and a menu of beauty treatments at your fingertips.

When it comes to dining, you’ll be spoilt for choice at Alua Suites Fuerteventura! There’s a sprawling buffet at the main restaurant, Terra Cafe, serving up cook-to-order grills and a huge variety of around-the-world flavours for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And when you want a taste of local cuisine, book into the elegant a la carte, Mare Nubium. If you find yourself peckish during the day, you can help yourself to light bites at the chic dining space, Kentina Pool Club. Guests who have upgraded to the My Favourite Club will also have access to exclusive adult-only dining in the breakfast lounge and a premium a la carte restaurant. As for bars, top up your drinks poolside, grab a glass of wine or gourmet coffee from Agua, or soak up the lively atmosphere at Bar Plaza.

The 383 suites here are modern and spacious, complete with a comfortable lounge area, flat screen TV, balcony or terrace, private bathroom with hairdryer and make-up mirror, mini-fridge and kettle. Upgrade to the My Favourite Club suites for luxe touches and child-free tranquillity.

Alua Suites Fuerteventura is within easy reach of local sights and fantastic attractions. You could walk into Corralejo, an old fishing village near the marina. It’s the perfect place to enjoy freshly caught seafood, traditional tapas, strolls along the sandy beaches and lazy morning markets. From the harbour, you can also hop aboard a ferry to visit the paradisiacal island of Los Lobos. In just 20 minutes you’ll reach its stunning sandy coves.

The real star of the show, however, is Parque Natural de Corralejo, a 10km stretch of unspoilt sand dunes. The site is protected from development and home to desert rabbits, lizards and birds. If you’re exploring the dunes on foot, make sure to pack plenty of water and sunscreen. Keen hikers can climb 300 metres up the Montaña Roja (Red Mountain) volcano. You’ll be rewarded with views of Lanzarote and La Graciosa across the water. Or for a true off-road experience, book yourself onto a buggy tour that will take you up to the volcanic area of Tamaragua. Avid cyclist? Hire a bike from the hotel to explore the volcanic landscapes on two wheels.
