This was our first visit to Fuerteventura and we are so happy we chose to stay at Oasis Tamarindo in Corralejo! Daniela was very helpful from the moment I first enquired about booking. She provided us with useful information and recommended a good car hire firm. She kept in contact with us prior to our arrival, sent us a good local map, met us promptly when we arrived and was available throughout our stay. Thank You Daniela!
Oasis Tamarindo is a lovely complex which is maintained to a very high standard. There are two big pools and plenty of sunbeds and parasols surrounded by beautiful gardens and trees. The apartment is on the ground floor and the patio at the rear has blooming shrubs and leafy palms all around. The apartment was very comfortable, freshly decorated, well furnished and equipped and very clean!
Oasis Tamarindo is situated away from the town centre and so it is quiet and peaceful. We enjoy walking and it took us about 15 minutes to reach the edge of town, 25 minutes into the centre of town which was fine for evening dining or light shopping. There is a taxi rank right outside the complex and a ride into town is only 3-4 Euros. A rental car or a taxi is essential for grocery shopping as the nearest supermarket is too far to walk carrying water and essentials. There is plenty of parking space and just outside the complex, on the roundabout is a very good restaurant called 'Tiffany's'! English food is the speciality including breakfasts (as you might expect) and Sunday roasts! The food is excellent, the portions are very generous, the staff are friendly and it is all very good value! There is also a great bar nearby called 'Caspers' where a vast range of Belgian beers are served, also cocktails and a warm welcome from the host!
Corralejo is a great town with good shops and a variety of bars and restaurants. We ate at several different restaurants all of which served quality food at a reasonable price!
By car we visited El Cotillo, La Oliva, Montana Tindaya and of course the amazing local sand dunes. Lots of other trips are available.
We had a truly great holiday! I hope we will be able to return soon!
Thanks again Daniela!
