Just back from a 10 day trip to the Golden Beach . We opted for the all inclusive package with a swim up room . Having never holidayed in Fuertaventura before , we loved the whole chill out vibe at the Golden Beach. We were slightly apprehensive about the AL package , however there was no need . We were absolutely blown away with the choice of food offers at all meal times , there was literally something for all tastes , lots of variety and it did not get boring at all. Loved the Cava option for breakfast ! Though we didn’t have any. There was a choice of wines and local beer as well as soft drinks at lunch and dinner. Food choices at breakfast included self help cereals, granolas , yoghurt, fruit , both sliced and whole , fabulous freshly baked local breads . Hot offers included bacon sausage, beans , fried eggs, omelettes made to order , local meats, churros, pancakes and cheese . Dinner offers included composite and build your own salads , pizza, items from the grill which included entrecôte steak, pork , calamari , salmon, local fish , pastas and sauces , chips and an , amazing range of deserts , ice cream and cheese. The staff were truly professional throughout and a massive shout out to the lovely , professional Restaurant Manager and his team , they literally could not do enough for you. The pool bar serves a range of tapas as well as local beer , wine and spirits , and operates from 10.30am to 6pm, despite their signage stating 10am opening , small point but you may wish to update. There is entertainment days at the pool from most around 3pm , DJs and the fantastic duo Yeni and Mr Sax , do not miss them . This couple were the Best entertainment we saw ,they also performed in the bar area at night , awesome . Loved the fact that the pool bar shuts at 6pm , being old ! Makes for a quiet evening and gosh does it not get chilly in Fuertaventura even in August. From 6.30 the upstairs bar opens and there is entertainment from around 9pm every night . This closes at 11pm . On a negative, sadly , the hotel was refurbed in 2023 and in our swim up room the workmanship was awful , leaking walk in shower which had never been sealed properly ,minging looking sealant around the shower and the leaking water has over time impacted on the integrity of the adjoining walls, creating , damp paint flaking walls , not only in our room but the whole corridor outside every room ..in addition , insufficient, non existent ventilation in the bathroom , leading to horrible smells in the bathroom. Golden Beach Management , you really need to address this . However, our room was kept clean, with fresh towels daily , replenishment of bottled water and rooms cleaned daily. And our own swim up pool was amazing, made our holiday. Be advised , the lifts are all out of order and appear to have been for some time , despite signage when we arrived stating they were being fixed on 8th August , not the case , we left on 17th and nothing had changed
