Iberostar Selection Fuerteventura Palace

Despite being more adult oriented, we had an enjoyable family holiday! Great food and very safe.

Im März durften wir zum 6. Mal das Iberostar Palace besuchen. Es war für uns wie ein nach Hause kommen! Angefangen mit einem herzlichen Empfang bezogen wir unser Lieblingszimmer. Während unseres gesamten Aufenthaltes begegneten uns die Hotelmitarbeiter stets herzlich und sehr freundlich. Unsere Anliegen, Fragen und Wünsche wurden immer berücksichtigt. Ganz besonders sind uns die Herren: Sevillano, Osvel, Albarran und Fonta aufgefallen! Auch unter den Damen gab es die Perlen Silvia, Isa sowie Ahlam! Von ihnen ging eine so tiefe Freundlichkeit und Herzlichkeit aus, dass wir uns mit Tränen in den Augen verabschiedet haben. Ihre Arbeit ist so professionell, dass sie ein wertvoller Teil des Iberostar Konzeptes sind. Bei unserem nächsten Besuch, der recht bald wieder stattfinden wird, freuen wir uns ganz besonders auf diese außergewöhnlichen Mitarbeiter. Uns freut es sehr, bei jedem unserer Urlaube eine Verbesserung erleben zu dürfen. Sei es das coole und absolut genial durchdachte Schlüsselarmband, sowie die kleinen und feinen neuen Leckereien am Buffet. All das macht Lust auf mehr! Zusammengefasst ist das Iberostar Selection ein großartiges Hotel und unsere absolute Reiseempfehlung!

Meega schönes Hotel, das Ambiente , Essen und Service einfach nur top. Wir waren bereits zum sechsten Mal in diesem Hotel und werden es immer wieder buchen. Die Zimmer sind sehr angenehm von der Größe her und nicht hellhörig. Die Betten sehr angenehm und der erneute Handtuchwechsel am Abend sehr komfortabel. Das Essen immer frisch mit einer reichlichen Auswahl, für jeden Geschmack ist etwas dabei, es wird alles frisch zubereitet. Besonders hervorragend und bemerkenswert freundlich und zuvorkommend ist das gesamte Personal. Hier möchten wir Silvia aus dem Service unbedingt gesondert erwähnen, immer freundlich und zuvorkommend, immer ein Lächeln auf den Lippen. Auch David Sevillano ist nicht zu toppen, aufmerksam, freundlich, immer eine nette Begrüßung, auch wenn viel zu tun ist. Alles in allem, einfach perfekt. In diesem Hotel verbringen wir immer einen Traumurlaub.

The hotel is very well appointed with excellent facilities. The food was of very high quality and the service was amazing. The staff were so friendly and helpful. This certainly felt like paradise and very hard to leave at the end of our holiday. But we will be back !

This hotel is wonderful. The quality of the food is very good and, if you stay, do book the Japanese restaurant at least once. Great products and choice even for people on all-inclusive. Staff are numerous and attentive. I udnerstand it is to close soon for refurbishment, it is a little dark in places. My one criticism is that it is not easy to find your way around, signage could be better.

Iberostar Selection Fuerteventura Palace. We visited this hotel which is in the south of the island, about an easy hours drive from the main airport. We hired a car so that we could explore the island and went half board to facilitate this. Be warned parking can be difficult near the hotel even with the hotels designated parking area. We have used the half board option at AI resorts all over Europe, but found this hotel differed from most AI resorts. Before you take either AI or half board check carefully to see what it does or doesn’t include, as this hotel operates on a “Ryanair” model in some areas. A big plus are the numerous Brita water units delivering free still or sparkling water, with glass carafes available in your room. The hotel predominantly caters for German guests with just a few other nationalities to include English and French. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful and the rooms are modern (think Ikea with a twist), spacious, spotlessly clean and regularly serviced. We had a ground floor room with patio looking down onto a vast clean sandy beach and the ocean. Be aware that the beach sun beds and shades are charged at €15 a day. The pool area has lots of sun beds as they are rammed into the area with centimetres between each bed, but there were no sun beds on our patio which we would have loved just to have for a bit of sun and privacy. Beach towels can only be changed in two short windows during the day which can be inconvenient. The buffet is absolutely outstanding with a vast selection of top quality products beautifully presented. However the restaurant has the ambiance of works canteen and you often have to queue to even gain access in the 2 hour slot you have to adhere to. The excellent Japanese restaurant is also a theatrical treat and well worth a visit. There are some rather outdated rules in the restaurant as men have to wear closed shoes and long trousers for dinner, but women can turn up in anything they want ! It’s was interesting to observe some of the items worn by men that allowed them to adhere to the rules ! We had understood that this hotel was an adults only resort, however we were woken early every morning (06.30) by a child/baby crying in the room next to us and there were high chairs and babies/children in the restaurant ? The hotel was refurbished in 2016 and is now in need a a bit of TLC and more lifts would be an advantage, as they are small and well used because the hotel has a total of 8 floors. This hotel calls itself 5 star but after a 36 year career that took me to hotels all over the world and many years travelling for pleasure, I would place it as an aspiring 4 Star - so no we will not be visiting again as there are many other hotels that offer us so much more !
