Set in sub-tropical gardens with a private swimming pool which has optional heating, they are perfect for a relaxing holiday in the wonderful climate of Fuerteventura.

Interior

These single storey villas are furnished to a high specification and are well decorated. An entrance hall leads to the spacious living room which has a dining area and patio doors to the poolside terrace. There is a separate well equipped kitchen with a breakfast table and access to a utility room with a washing machine. The villas have three bedrooms with twin beds placed together, large wardrobes, and electric fans. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and there is a further family bathroom. In some of the villas for a small extra charge, a 7th person can be accommodated on a sofa in the living room, which without cushions is the same size as a bed.

Exterior

A sunbathing terrace surrounds the private 6 x 3 metre swimming pool which can be electrically heated for an extra charge between the months of October and June and is entered by Roman steps. A patio dining table, a traditional Canarian barbecue and colourful sub-tropical plants complete the charming outdoor atmosphere. Steps lead up the side of the house to a beautiful roof terrace which has sunbeds and a parasol. Please note that the optional pool heating needs to be booked and paid in advance.

Amenities

The location is excellent with a supermarket and a restaurant within short walking distance. This villa is located 950 metres from the centre of Corralejo where there is excellent shopping and a wide choice of restaurants and bars. There are also several, delightful, cove-like beaches in this area, many of them with a beach bar or restaurant alongside them. They serve snacks and delicious fresh fish and are idyllic places in which to while away the long hours of Fuerteventura sun. These beaches are connected by an attractive, sea front path, which leads into the original, fishing harbour and there are surf centres dotted along this stretch, at regular intervals. The superb, Baku Water Park has massive, water slides, spectacular wave machines and an adjacent 18 hole mini-golf. The on-site Animal Experience offers shows and interactive activities, including swimming with sharks and sea lions. There is also a haunted house, a pirate ship, a few theme restaurants and the bustling and colourful, twice weekly, street market is held here.
The very attractive Campanario shopping centre has several good restaurants in its pretty plaza, as well an excellent choice of tax-free shopping in shops such as Springfields. It is open seven days a week and is located 400 metres from this villa. There are wonderful views of Corralejo from the pretty bell tower and you can enjoy live music and a small Canarian market every Sunday.
The bustling, charming, old harbour area of Corralejo is the original, fishing village in the north of Fuerteventura. The area has trendy, little shops and many restaurants, cafes and bars along the sea wall, offering stunning views out to sea. From here there are regular ferries to the neighbouring islands of Lanzarote and the gorgeous, unpopulated, island of Lobos, as well as several marine excursions, including catamaran trips and glass bottom boats.
Just south of the resort, 900 metres from this villa, is the start of some of the world’s, most stunning beaches, which form part of a national park. A seven mile stretch of glistening, white, sands lead into pure, azure seas and are backed by sparkling, white dunes. There is world class windsurfing available along this stretch, including the well known Flag Beach and the sight of the sky filled with colourful kite surfers is truly magnificent. There is an excellent bus service from the centre of Corralejo to the dune beaches and it is also possible to rent bikes in the resort. Fuerteventura has been popular with naturists for many years and there are areas of the dune beaches where they can feel comfortable and are not overlooked.
From Corralejo it is a 40 kilometre drive to the resort of Caleta de Fuste, a holiday resort with two 18 hole, championship golf courses.
Puerto del Rossario, the capital of Fuerteventura, is a few minutes from the airport and a fifteen minute drive from Caleta de Fuste.
