Fuerteventura Hotels Reservations

Costa Calma Information Located on the south facing coast, Costa Calma is 36 miles south west of the airport. A purpose built holiday resort, it occupies undulating ground that slopes down to the beach surrounded by a hilly interior. The main attraction is the long Sotovento beach of soft pale sand and dunes shelving into calm clear water, which is safe for children and ideal conditions for windsurfing. The surrounding coastline stretches for 18 miles with similar idyllic beaches, and it is suggested that at low tide, you can walk the entire length! The resort has a main shopping centre plus other general shops and tourist outlets scattered along the coast road, where the hotels are situated. There is a range of restaurants including Chinese, German and traditional cuisine and a sprinkling of cafes and bars. Nightlife is generally low- key and is mostly hotel based, but there are a choice of late night bars and discos for night owls. The public bus service can take you south to Jandia and more fabulous beaches or up to the capital at Puerto del Rosario.

Caleta de Fuste Information Situated half way down the East Coast, approximately 8 miles south of the capital, Caleta de Fuste is a purpose built, still developing resort with an enclosed sandy beach, suitable for small children. Protected by a breakwater, there are straw parasols for shade and watersports especially windsurfing available at the beach. An 18th century watchtower, known as El Castillo de Fuste dominates the headland at the harbour, and the rocky coastline heading north leads to a newer district called Nuevo Horizonte, which can be reached by a 1 mile long coastal path. There are varied cafes and bars across from the beach and numerous tourist shops in the centre. There are a few night clubs but most of the evening entertainment is provided by the hotels, making this resort more popular for families or couples looking for a more relaxed beach holiday.
