Iberostar Playa Gaviotas Park

Absolutely beautiful hotel, fully refurbished in a peaceful and quiet location, The room cleaners are the best I have ever seen and all staff are friendly, helpful and attentive. Highly recommend if you have younger children and want to relax. The facilities are also great and the pools are clean and you can see staff cleaning and taken pride in the hotel throughout the day.

We spent 2 weeks at this hotel in September 2024 What was good! Checkin was quick and we were given a glass of Sect when we arrived. Absolutely brilliant kids animation team (Kudos to Katy, Ana, Tanya, Victor and Alex). These guys did a great job keeping the kids happy and all deserve pay rises. Very friendly staff throughout the hotel. Hotel has been newly renovated. Public areas were spotless and well maintained. Rooms were large and clean. The aircon was good and the beds were comfy. There were plenty of sunloungers by the pool. Good choice of food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Food temperatures were ok. Restaurant staff were friendly, and always smiling. Very nice beach just 8 walking minutes from the hotel. Estimated 60% German speaking guests. 20% Spanish, 10% British and 10% other. Most guest facing staff spoke Spanish, English and German. What wasn't so good! There wasn't a dress code at the evening buffet. If there was one, then it wasnt being enforced, as some guests were wearing T-Shirts, casual shorts and Flip-Flops. I even saw a guest wearing crocs, which I personally found off-putting. The hotel is aimed at families but still I think a dresscode (trousers, shirt and closed shoes for men) should be observed of an evening,. To me the evening buffet had a canteen flare. The evening shows were low budget and monotonous. Watching scantily clad young women airing their crotches for 45mins whilst doing handstands on chairs, sliding down poles and swinging from hoops isn't my idea of a family show. In other 4 star hotels we have been to the evening shows have been more professional and varied. We therefore generally gave the shows here a wide berth and rather went to bed early so that we could instead take in the magnificantly beautiful sunrise. I doubt you will find a better hotel for families with young kids (12 and under) on Fuerteventura and I couldn't recommend the hotel more highly. What it does well it does very well. We had a great stay and made some great memories.

Here currently and it's a nice all inclusive for a sun break but be warned it's VERY BORING!! There's almost no nightlife, the "entertainment" finishes at about 10pm and then then the bar staff are entirely focused on closing up and going home. We got to their bowling alley at 10:15 and they wouldn't let us play because it takes 20mins!!?? Maybe nice if you're over 70 but it's a seriously dull boring resort in the evening with amateurish entertainment not even free drinks can get you through

A fantastic vacation. We went with a toddler and felt completely at ease there, he was particularly thrilled with the pool, play areas, beach and food. It was safe, clean, super friendly and the amenities are great. The food is very tasty, and a big selection was always available. It’s not just a family spot though, there were loads of couples and plenty of activities and quiet spaces carved out for the no-kid crowd. We rented a car but ultimately didn’t use it except to and from the airport as there was no desire to leave the comfort of the resort. That said - I’m glad we did have the car as it was a nice easy drive and we passed some beautiful beaches worth a quick stop. The resort had plenty of parking. It really had it all. We rate is as one of our top getaways.

Loved our stay here. Very friendly staff, very clean. Food was yummy and different everyday. My kids loved the heated pools, couldn't get them out. Also the entertainment team was great and fun. Rooms are equipped well, beds are good, bedsofa was a bit hard. Only downside was the air-conditioning in the room that worked very poorly.
