The room was lovely and had a lovely balcony with table and chairs.
The building is outdated but that did not affect my holiday.

Hotel and staff very good. Only downside was having a jacket and towel taken after I left them on a subbed by the pool.

Excellent value and location
Posted 31 Jan 2019 on HotelsThe staff are so friendly and happy, and provide an excellent service, particularly the restaurant and bar staff. They made a real difference. The girl in charge of fitness activities, Elena, is amazing. It’s a great place to go as a single person as lots of people do, and the holiday can be as sociable as you want it to be. There was everything I wished for: the beach right outside the hotel, lovely warm weather, affordable all-inclusive, interesting guests, and a room with a view. The only downside is the hotel is a bit tired and in need of renovation, but this did not affect my stay in the slightest. Great hotel if you want a mix of people, a laid back feel, and a white linen tablecloth restaurant that doesn’t have a dress code!

Relaxing stay hotel a little tired
Posted 30 Mar 2018 on HotelsThe hotel itself is not 4 star. It probably was once upon a time but as it's a quite few years old the rooms are dated, the corridors are tired and there is peeling paint in areas. The beds were awful in my room and lacked comfort being very hard (not firm) On the plus side the food and staff are 4 star. The hotel is very clean, the restaurant is very well manned and the chefs do a fantastic job with the selection and quality of the meals. The pool area has plenty of sunbeds and the pool is large enough to have a swim around although it does catch the wind. The beach is at the end of the hotel just note that you have to pay for sunbeds on the beach. The clientele of this hotel is mostly German and a lot of things are geared towards them with German being the primary language so if you prefer an English styled hotel this is not the place for you. There is not a lot to do in Costa Calma outside of the hotels which are all SBH owned and few restaurants or bars as the hotels are all AI. Overall as I was looking for a total relaxation break and this was a exactly what I got.

Dear Sally,
Thank you very much for sharing your feedback about your holiday in our SBH Fuerteventura Playa. We appreciate reviews like yours as it helps us to improve our service.
We can guarantee you a 4* Standard in all aspects of the hotel. We are very sorry that you don’t see it that way. We have our maintenance team which works daily to maintain our 4* standards. They repair minor faults and help our guests whenever they need a hand. We planned to renovate our hotel in the future, but we do not have an exact date yet.
We are very sorry that you did not find our beds comfortable. Please keep in mind that each and every guest has different sleeping habits therefore it is very difficult to fulfil the expectations. We want that our guests sleep well and so we offer soft blankets or special pads that can be placed under the sheets.
Near of our hotel (just 3 min walk) you can enjoy bars, restaurants and shopping centre. Furthermore on Sundays and Wednesday Costa Calma offers a local market which is also located near of the hotel. The bus stops are just a short walk (2-3min) from the hotel and connect to Jandia (15min). There you find a wide range of bars, restaurants, shops.
Thank you for your praise for our food. The variety and quality of our food is very important to us and our chefs prepare everything freshly on a daily basis. Furthermore we have themed night such as a Spanish night.
Concerning the prices for the beach loungers we would like to mention that this is a public beach, which is regulated by law in Spain. The loungers and sunshades are operated by an independent company and therefore are charged.
It was our pleasure to host you, and we look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to our hotel.
Kind regards,
The management
