Iberostar Selection Fuerteventura Palace

I want to start this review by saying I can’t understand anyone that gives this hotel less than 5 stars. We arrived at the hotel after a long day travelling to be greeted by the most wonderful receptionist. Despite her informing us of her lack of English we didn’t have any issues at all, we also were treated to a glass of Prosecco which was appreciated. To our surprise we had been given a complementary upgrade to a pool side room, with a terrace and two sun loungers. This was amazing, however I must note if you book this room request a room between 4201 and 4210 as the later rooms were out of the sun by around 2:30pm. This was no issue as we still managed to get sun loungers around the main pool area in the afternoon. The location of the hotel is spectacular with some amazing sunsets and sunrises. Morro Jable is a short taxi or a 40 min walk away and is full of designer shops on the “new town” and some delightful coffee shops etc in the “old town”. I note some reviews mention this hotel is predominantly German guests. This is true but given my knowledge of the area this is to be expected and quite frankly is not an issue. I enjoyed the daytime entertainment especially the aqua gym. The staff were incredible and really make this hotel, nothing was too much trouble. Again I’ve seen another review complaining of language issues with the staff, this was not something we experienced. Speaking a little bit of Spanish went a long way and was appreciated. Finally the food was excellent, at each meal there was plenty of choice and the food was always hot and tasty. I was surprised to see items such as caviar, beef carpaccio and oysters, something I wouldn’t expected at an all inclusive buffet. The drinks choice is extensive and the service was speedy. We will certainly be returning.

What a wonderful place this is! The friendly and happy staff make this place extra special. The food is the best we have encountered in any hotel and the hotel and grounds are simply beautiful! Treated ourselves to the Star prestige package and feel that this was worth the extra - the pool space the best advantage in my view. Sunrise over the sea from our balcony in the morning was a lovely start to the day. The cocktails delivered twice daily to our sunbeds, a lovely and luxurious touch. We have thoroughly enjoyed our special holiday and we will be return! Thank you Iberostar for a very lovely time!

Booked 10 nights for our Silver Wedding Anniversary and New Year. Absolutely the right choice! All staff are amazing, so friendly. Universally so! Location of hotel is ideal. Right by a lovely sandy beach and there is a lovely walk into the nearest town and further on to Morro Jable. We chose All Inclusive and were extremely pleased with all food and drinks. The food options are extensive and very high quality too. Cooking stations, salads, everything! Far too many to include here. Branded drinks available and even the mini bar is included in the All Inclusive and restocked daily. There are plenty of sun beds. We didn't upgrade to prestige and we were more than happy with everything. The pools are cold though. This hotel was our very first experience of Iberostar and we loved it! We were very lucky with the weather which was a bonus too!

We stayed at this hotel in Jandia for 10 nights in December and opted for one the prestige sea view rooms. Upon arrival we were given a colour coded wristband and this is also used as your room key, which was really useful. With this you get access to the adults only pool area and the prestige area in the dining room as well as nice quality bath robes and slippers. As other reviewers have mentioned, the staff are all, without exception, super helpful and friendly. They can’t do enough for you. All areas of the hotel are spotless and if you need beds changing everyday (we didn’t) that will be done for you. You just leave a card on the bed. Towels were changed every evening with a turn down service and a delicious chocolate. The food was so nice we didn’t get around to booking the Japanese restaurant. I wish we had of booked a table but perhaps next time. There was something for everyone and a lot of the meat and fish was cooked to order. Personally I loved the fish and ate it almost everyday. Bar service was good. We didn’t have to wait very long for a drink as it seems to be a well staffed area. The only one thing that I would point out is that there isn’t really much entertainment in the evening. There is a nice walking track that you can take down to the resort in Jandia where you’ll find some nice shops, restaurants and bars and there are a couple of bars and small supermarkets near the hotel. Lastly I must mention the beach. It is absolutely lovely. You can walk directly onto the beach from the hotel and it is a really lovely area. Really nice golden sand and exceptionally clean. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would certainly stay here again.

Just left this Lovely Hotel. Plus side the room was great. V comfy bed. Little fridge with drinks. Well lit. Great air con. & a fab bath with a great responsive shower! Clean towels changed as you needed. The location is also very good. Mins from the beach which is great. & show the sunrise just to the left. Food. The variety for the 3 meals of the day is amazing. So many fresh items so well cooked for you to ur taste. With steaks & fish / Seafood my personal faves. & the Japanese was amazing do not miss it. The Bar full of so many top brand names & the service is second to none! All staff we met were very attentive. & a pleasure to be around. The still good but could be better bits The pools are freezing cold. The pool bar could have fresh snacks available at all times. The corridors are very very dark at all times but esp early morning going out for sunrise or late at night. The entertainment was a bit below par. Poss just our taste? I will 100% recommend this hotel to anyone who plans to go to FV

This hotel is exactly as described by every other 5 star reviewer on here. The staff work tirelessly, they all go out of their way to help, assist, serve, greet, clean & maintain Iberostar Palace. I read a review that said 'speak to reception if you have an issue". I second that opinion. They are trained to iron out any issue. We had a room issue, Yolander sorted it, we had a safe issue, the maintenance person came within 15 mins. The attention to detail is apparent. As well as a daily maid, there is an evening maid too who pulls curtains, replaces any towels & leaves a chocolate on your pillow. Thoroughness is well observed here. I am very into fitness & I was impressed by the gym, although small, it was well stocked & maintained with a good range of free weights, barbells, safety clips, medicine balls & even a weightlifting cage. Often resort gyms have damaged, out-dated equipment, not with Iberostar Palace. I've uploaded gym photos of the weights section as I always wish someone else would do this when I'm reading reviews. To the hotel, could you purchase a barbell neck support please for guests to use? I also had a massage. Coral, my masseur was phenomenal. When lying on my front, she placed a towel under my feet for comfort & when on my back; a towel very lightly over my eyes to ensure I relaxed. She was very experienced & didn't scrimp on time. I left floating on air. The Japanese restaurant was worth a visit. It was a fun evening. Someone commented that reserving sun beds is frowned upon; that didn't stop people putting towels down I'm afraid. We like early morning sun & were often settled around the pool by 8.30. We are normally beach people, but having the sunbeds overlooking the sea made the convenience of the pool attractive. The sun bed mattresses are very comfortable & the pool is blissfully quiet. Staff came around with a trolley offering melon or a sneaky late afternoon cocktail. We even had a saxophonist serenade the pool one afternoon. I particularly enjoyed not having to remember to carry a room key. It was delightful to have the room key chip in the form of a wrist band. My top tips for the hotel are: If you are a water guzzler like me, the karafe in the room won't see you far & Iberostar Palace is ethically plastic free. Bring a large water bottle to keep topping up. Swim up rooms are worth every penny, but rooms on the end of the block are a bit of a push to call a swim up room. These tips are not related to the hotel: The beach sun loungers are €15 a day cash only There's a public toilet on the beach but the lady's door doesn't close, take your own loo roll with you & don't flush it down the loo! There is a toilet at the cafe too. There's a fantastic running path at the base of the hotel access to the beach. You'll need your phone torch if you're going pre-sunrise, but watching the sun rise on your run back is outstanding
