Castillo Playa

We had a lovely weeks stay in October half term here with our 12 year old daughter . Yes the rooms are dated but they are perfectly functional and clean so thats fine by me as I don't want to go on holiday to spend time stuck in a room ! We tried several pools around the resort and this one was the best , never too busy and always at a very good temperature as it is heated . It is salt water but its not overpowering at all. Lifeguard wasn't over the top and didn't stop inflatables and balls in the pool , he was a nice lad too . Reception were very efficient and helpful, we did have a problem with our front door and it was sorted straightaway. The pool bar was fantastic and the food was great , we ate there a few times for breakfast , lunch and even had dinner there . 2 euro for a large Heineken in Happy Hour between 4 and 8 can't be knocked either ! The English ladies who run it were all very good too, really nice genuine people. As for some previous comments about there being lots of old people there , wellI'm not sure what they have against old people for a start ! 🤣 . There was quite a lot of old people there but there was also a good mix of young and middle aged as well. Thats just about sums it up ,I wouldn't hesitate in going back again, we don't have to go 5 star to have a good holiday so if you do don't go here

We've just returned from a week's holiday. We really enjoyed our stay. The location is excellent and everything is within an easy walk. The apartments were as expected, yes they could do with a refurb, but they were spotlessly clean. My partner and teenage son are very tall, (both well over 6ft) , but the shower was ideal as was the main bed. For our son, we removed the cushions off the sofabed and but them on the floor, then used the tables to keep in place. He slept well all week. Result! The ladies in the snack bar were great and our son appreciated his 4 euro breakfast every day. We appreciated the happy hour. Great prices for drinks. The pool is large. We enjoyed walking/jogging along the promenade every morning. Shout out to the Jet 2 staff, Carl, Jordan and Zara who were really helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. Good to see them in the resort. The last 2 two Jet2 hols we had were disappointing, but this was fab. If you want a great beach, a lovely pool and the resort on your doorstep this is ideal. We highly recommend this place!

Fantastic chilled out place loved it cleaners fantastic handy for shops and beach walk miss the place already but don't know if we will be back to fuertaventura

Absolute dump this place - it’s stuck in 80s! It’s like a retirement home for the clientele. Just got back and it’s so bad. Cleaners work hard but seriously, The couch which doubles as a bed… stop!

All very easy with jet2, flight, transfers, people on the ground making the travel part seamless. The acommodation was lovely and clean with everything you need in the kitchen area. Shower was great with hot water and fresh towels everyday. We had a patio table, chairs and 2 sunbeds on the verandah, excellent wifi for the children. The pool was large, clean and quite quiet considering children were off school. Restaurant on site was reasonable with lovely food etc. The reception was welcoming and cleaners brilliant. Close to everything. There was plenty to keep the kids happy, watersports etc in the resort with lots of nice reasonable restaurants. We all really enjoyed. Thankyou to all the fantastic team at the castillo playa.
