Fuerteventura Princess - Adult Only

Matt Shaw

We recently stayed at Fuerteventura Princess and overall had a really good experience. The food presentation was very good, and there was plenty of choice. Drinks were easy to access throughout the day with self-serve pumps for soft drinks like Coke, which made the all-inclusive really convenient. The free WiFi was excellent — accessible everywhere from our room to the pool and worked really well (a rare find in many hotels!). Our room felt modern and clean. Some reviews mentioned the need for upgrading, but ours certainly didn’t feel outdated. The only negatives were a few ants around the bath/shower. The shower kept fluctuating between very hot and very cold which is very dangerous. Housekeeping was good, though sometimes a bit early in the morning. We spent most of our time in the pool near the kids’ pool. It was more shallow but also much warmer, which made it lovely to relax in. The hotel’s web-based app was also really handy for finding information and planning. The only real letdown was the evening entertainment inside, which wasn’t great compared to the rest of the experience. Overall, a lovely stay with great food, modern rooms, and excellent WiFi — a few small improvements and it would be a solid 5-star review.

Princess Fuerteventura – Sunshine, Smiles & Smooth Holidays A fantastic stay from start to finish! The resort is spotless — rooms are cleaned daily and everything feels well cared for. The staff are genuinely friendly and helpful, from reception to the restaurant and bar teams. There’s plenty of space to relax, great amenities, and more than enough bars and dining areas to keep everyone happy. The location couldn’t be better — right by a beautiful beach that’s perfect for morning walks or sunset dips. Essentia is a lovely extra touch if you’re after a bit more calm and relaxation. ☀️ Nice to know: The beach path nearby is ideal for evening strolls with the family. 🍹 Tip: Treat yourself to the Essentia upgrade — it adds that little touch of serenity. All in all, a wonderful experience — highly recommended!

The hotel is large and built on the side of a hill so almost every activity / meal involved walking up or down a hill (quite steep in places). The bedroom was large and comfortable with all the facilities I needed. The pool areas were great and I found no problem obtaining a sunbed each day and appreciated the pool towels, the bar service with no queuing the separate adult area and the availability of Wi-Fi throughout the hotel. However, my main concern was the main restaurant (‘Food Market’). The food cooked ‘on demand’ was usually good though often too many portions were kept warming on the side of the hotplate. However, the self-service ‘hot’ food was, at best, lukewarm. The overhead heating bulbs did little to keep the food warm. All the restaurant staff seemed to have their individual tasks but the was no evidence of anyone in overall charge maintaining an up-to-the-minute overview. For example: at breakfast most days the orange juice machines were 'out of service', the coffee machines often broke down and sometimes there was no sliced bread whatsoever available for toast. It should not be up to me to point these things out to staff only to receive a shrug that nothing could be done. Food labelling was often less than helpful. 'A selection of vegetables' or 'A selection of cheeses' etc. did little to provide any information nor help me identify foods or ingredients that would severely affect my allergies. A floor / restaurant manager on permanent duty around the restaurant is urgently needed. A disappointing experience leading me to cancel my two upcoming bookings to this same hotel.

We stayed at this hotel for a week. We had booked a room with an ocean view, and honestly, we didn’t expect it to be that beautiful! The hotel itself is stunning — it looks like a small village where you can walk around and enjoy the views. Surrounded by mountains, the ocean, and lots of greenery, the area feels peaceful and very well maintained. The staff constantly clean and take care of the gardens and paths, which makes everything look neat and pleasant. Our room was spacious, with a terrace, sunbeds, and an incredible view. We did have a problem with cockroaches at first, since the mosquito screen wasn’t perfect and there were some gaps under the entrance door. However, the staff were very friendly and helpful — they disinfected the room, gave us a spray to use ourselves, and after that, there were no more issues. Only a few ants, especially in the bathroom. The room could use a bit of renovation, but that didn’t bother us — overall, it was fine. As for the food: at the beginning, we were a bit disappointed, but after a few days we managed to find something tasty every time. Lunch and dinner were great, but breakfast was very crowded — thousands of people, long queues, not enough plates, and sometimes even no orange juice available. We’re not picky eaters, but things like undercooked chicken are not acceptable. There were lots of cats around the hotel, which for us was definitely a big plus 😅 The beach was beautiful, although it was a bit disappointing that sunbeds were charged extra. Also, there was an unexpected “All Inclusive Plus” option that gave more drink choices at the bar — not ideal, but the cocktails (even from the machine) were still delicious. The evening atmosphere was nice and relaxing. The adults-only area with the pool and jacuzzi was absolutely amazing. There are also local photographers working in the hotel who offer a “free” photoshoot, and you only pay for the photos you choose. However, the prices were very high for the quality — no editing, tilted horizons, and the examples shown in their book looked much better than the actual result. Overall, we really enjoyed our vacation. Maybe a bit expensive considering some of the downsides, but still a great and memorable stay.

This was an all inclusive holiday and we had the good fortune to be upgraded to Esencia. My friend and I had separate rooms and both had great views. The food was amazing with great variety of choice at every meal. We loved the fact that they were so environmentally friendly and applaud the way they clear up/clean so efficiently. The staff are amazing! Great atmosphere at the Sports Bar in the evening and lots of entertainment both for children and adults. We did enjoy the adult only zones best. Can recommend the hot stone massage and facial at the Spa too. This is the most relaxing holiday we have ever had and will be back next June!
