Jandia Hotels with Balcony

Iam currently staying in this hotel, first impressions the hotel is big, clean, the staff work very hard and are very friendly. If you looking for a chilled holiday then this is the place. The rooms are spacious and clean, but I will say they are a bit dated could do with a modern update. No kettle or tea and coffee facilities are provided in the room which is very disappointing. Towels need replacing very old and shabby. Layout of hotel overall is great easy to get round. Price of a beach towel 10 € then 1€ if you want to change it. The big downfall of this hotel is the food in the restaurant. It is more 3 star not 4. The quality of the food is very poor. It's repetitive every night just called something else. My husband had pasta one night nearly broke his tooth on it as it was hard, he found bones in the meat dishes. Paella every night. What hotel in Spain doesn't have pizza, well this hotel hasn't. The only good thing about the food was maybe breakfast, so I suggest if you stay here just have bed and breakfast and eat out. The drinks are watered down not full strength. They have a well equipped gym which my husband is using daily. Haven't had a issue getting a sunbed yet, but what hotel have you been to that they bolt the sunbeds to the ground and you can't move them, strange. The beach is right on your doorstep out the back of hotel. Spar located 10 minute walk away there are some restaurants and shops there to. Overall we booked this holiday last minute for the weather, but it's just disappointing that the food situation let's this hotel down when it could be so much better if management took the time to look at a better menu and better quality of food., as the hotel itself is lovely, this the only reason why I have rated a 3 the food is a big let down, sorry.

This is our third stay at this hotel, and we choose it because of its proximity to the Club Ion Watersports centre, which is on the beach right in front of the hotel (we spend our holiday windsurfing). What we like about the hotel is that it’s very very quiet - no music round the pool, no loud entertainment at night (there is really lovely gentle entertainment outside the restaurant after dinner) - so this won’t necessarily suit everyone, but it works for us. A couple of things have changed for the better since our last visit: there are no longer two dinner sittings, and instead you can go to dinner whenever you like. This suits us much better and meant that there were no big queues at mealtimes. Also, the hotel’s free wifi now seems to extend to the bedrooms (we were on the 6th floor, near the end, and had good signal). The rooms are a bit dated, and the beds are a bit hard, but the rooms are spacious and the shower is hot and powerful (lukewarm showers are a dealbreaker for me). I especially love the balconies which have glass fronts and lovely comfortable sunbeds, so you can really relax on your own balcony. Pros: - Quiet clientele - mainly older German couples, very few children - Sea view balconies with comfortable sun beds - Fridge in room - Large pool area with plenty of sun beds (and very few people putting towels on sun beds first thing in the morning!) - Quiet pool area with no music playing, no aqua aerobics etc - Extensive breakfast and dinner buffet with lots of choice - Excellent service at meal times - staff very friendly and efficient. If you order a bottle of wine at dinner and don’t finish it, they will label it with your room number and bring it back out to you the next night. - Spar shop and plenty of souvenir/clothes shops and restaurants within a couple of minutes walk Cons: - 10 Euro cash deposit required for each beach towel - 20 Euro cash deposit required for bathrobes - Charge to use in-room safe - Very poor labelling of food at the buffet. I don’t eat meat so had to try and work out what did and didn’t have meat in it. If I was vegan or had allergies, the buffet would be a nightmare - Very little atmosphere in the communal areas We will continue to return as it’s perfect for us.

Fuerteventura Princess is a great hotel. It could be excellent but we had a few small service issues. The hotel itself and the facilities were fantastic. Food - great choice and always tasty. Even for our fussy eaters. However, it did seem to take a long time to clear tables and we often had to look around for a clean one. Pools - great, we used both the heated and non heated and both were okay in February temperatures and were regularly cleaned. Bars - a good choice of places to drink but the cocktail menu is almost non existent on the normal AI. Limited to Pina Colada or Tequilla Sunrise for alcoholic choices. Entertainment was limited, there were a few acts on but not every night. Room - furnished very nicely but here is where we experienced sub standard service for a 4*. Shower gel not replenished during our stay, even though we left the lid off to show it was empty. We had to take cool showers on occasions as the water was not always hot. We only had one mug between 3 of us and coffee was not replenished. The view from our room consisted of an 8 ft concrete wall, even though we could hear the ocean from behind it. The reason being they placed us just by the Adult only area when staying with children. Would I stay here again? Maybe. I've stayed in many 4* family hotels and this rates about the mid point and we had a pleasant stay overall.
