INNSiDE by Meliá Fuerteventura - Adults only

A very relaxing ‘Adult Only’ hotel on the south of the island. It you are looking to get some R&R in a quiet and rare white beach location, then this is a great choice. The hotel is positioned in a hillside and looks over a very long white beach with a lagoon in front. The lagoon fills and empties depending on the moon (we never saw the lagoon filled in our week. I think it fills and empties on a 2 week cycle). The hotel is well maintained and everything was clean (communal areas thoroughly cleaned on a daily basis) and all staff friendly and helpful. We opted for a ‘studio’ which comes with a slightly bigger room than the standard ones plus a stand alone bath and a more extensively stocked mini fridge which was refreshed every day. I’m sure a standard room would have been fine as they all look over to the beach. The hotel has a lovely pool which wasn’t too busy and there was no ‘reserving sunbeds’ policy which was nice. The pool is a good length for those who like to clock up some lengths. The pool staff were very attentive and alway on hand to help with moving sun shades around when needed. Beach/pool towels are included and could be changed with the pool staff. The spacious restaurant is self service with a lovely grill on the go at both breakfast & dinner. The food choices are extensive and we found most options to be of excellent quality except the puddings which looked nice but never tasted quite so good but the fresh fruits choice was good so we opted for that after a few days! We were allocated a breakfast and dinner time but because the hotel wasn’t full, it didn’t seem to matter when you arrived for breakfast or dinner. We enjoyed the Pilates & Yoga classes which are included in the price of the room. The classes can be booked at reception and run on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday & Friday from 8am The classes were lead by Annika and David from Inspira Fitness who are excellent instructors and able to cater for mixed ability classes. There is also a gym to use which was empty every time we visited. There is little else around in the immediate vicinity (which adds to the charm of this hotel). The closest town is Costa Calma where there are a few shops, including a Spar to buy extra provisions but to be honest, that is the only reason to visit. It is a 20-30 minute walk from the hotel on a small back road. If you want to explore further, it is probably worth hiring a car which is what we did. The only disappointment was the lack or wind for water sports at this time of the year (November). Apparently, the best time to visit for water sport is March - August so if visiting outside of these months then it is a risk to book and pay for classes in advance. There were several other hotel guests who were also hoping to do water sports so the lack of wind at this time of the year is not widely advertised. There is a much larger hotel located directly behind the Adult only hotel. It is currently closed as under an expensi

Had another lovely stay here. The yoga and pilatesclasses are a bonus and good teachers by Inspira Fitness. Would be nice if the do these classes every morning. The staff is really friendly, and breakfast and dinner buffet great! Rooms are big, comfortable. Terrace of room has a comfortable sunbed to enjoy the amazing view of the ocean, golden sandbeach and palmtrees. Also nice live music in the evening and nice cocktails. This hotel is if you like to relax and like me don’t like the big resorts. It’s a nice place to walk on the beach and bring your own towel to relax on the beach. Not a busy beach with sunbeds. The hotel has a really nice infinitypool with beach/oceanview.

I stayed at INNside by Melia Fuerteventura and overall had a pleasant experience, but there were a few aspects that didn’t quite meet expectations, especially considering the price. The hotel is secluded, lovely, and quiet, making it a peaceful spot for relaxation. The rooms are well-designed with comfortable beds, a nice balcony, and all the basic amenities like a fridge, wardrobe, and safe. However, a couple of things could be improved in the rooms, like the lack of a kettle for tea/coffee and the poor ventilation in the bathroom, which made it steam up after a shower. The staff were very nice and helpful throughout our stay, which added to the positive experience. Every evening, there was some form of entertainment in the main bar, which was a nice touch to unwind and enjoy the atmosphere. The pool area and sun loungers were quite small. Luckily, we didn’t struggle to find space, but I imagine others may have. Additionally, it was a bit annoying that the hotel allows people to vape outside while you’re trying to relax by the pool or elsewhere. The service was good overall, but we were often told that many items were out of stock when ordering at the bar or restaurant. The breakfast was enjoyable, but there were only two stations for hot beverages, so we had to queue, which was a bit inconvenient. On one occasion, I also noticed ants crawling near the bread station during breakfast, which was a bit off-putting. We decided to try the dinner buffet, but it was massively overpriced and offered very limited choices. The food wasn’t great, so we ended up heading to Costa Calma and Morro del Jable for dinner, where the food was much more affordable and tastier. Another downside was the limited provision of water in the room — just two small bottles. There are no water fountains available, only a small dispenser at reception. In conclusion, while the hotel itself is nice and peaceful, I felt that the value for money was lacking. The space, food, and service could be improved, especially considering the cost of staying here.

If you want to stay in Playa de Sotavento de Jandia, this is the only option currently besides the gargantuan Melia Hotel next door. I prefer INNSIDE for its more low key environmental impact. While seclusion and exclusivity have their charms, the flip side is that there are no other shops even to buy water or anything around; unfortunately, there are no bus or shuttle service from the hotel to Costa Calma. Nevertheless, it was worthwhile to stay here for a couple of days once in your life despite the high prices and inconveniences. The room and food are both artfully and tastefully designed. My only regret here is not using the pool since it was too cold for my taste even under plentiful sunshine.

A wonderful week at INNside by Meliã and windsurfing at René Egli . Pedro Soberbio and Nicolas with their team took full care of us. The cooks prepared each time delicious meals that made us all happy. A super location highly recommendable! We couldn’t have wished for more.

As repeat guests, we have always appreciated the high level of service at Innside Fuerteventura. Many staff members truly go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. However, I've noticed a decline in communication between departments. This has led to some minor inconveniences and delays in response to requests. The breakfast continues to be fantastic, with a wide variety of delicious options. Unfortunately, the quality of dinner has noticeably decreased, which is disappointing considering the increased room rates. Overall, our stay was still enjoyable, but I hope these areas can be addressed for future guests
