Apartment close to the beach

Even though Paco could not speak English nor us Spanish, we received a very warm welcome. The apartment which is centrally located, could not have been cleaner and had everything you need from a well equipped kitchen to make simple meals, use of beach things i.e. umbrella and chairs, clean bedding and towels and on arrival water, toilet roll, welcome chocolates (nice touch), handwash and washing up liquid.. These essential items are often missing in self catering apartments. There is a beautiful view from the lovely roof terrace. The only improvement here is that the sun loungers would be a lot more comfortable with a padded sun lounge mattress. As there is no air conditioning a fan may also help. Even though there are many windows on some nights it was airless. It was very hot when we visited.The TV does not have any English speaking channels apart from CNN which is American. Even though we found our way round ok and had a car to get around in the day (very useful to explore further afield), a little information booklet with where to find things, best eating places and the area may also be useful. The town itself is a lovely local town. If you want a busy bustling resort Gran Tarajal is not for you. It is a Spanish town where people live, work and socialise. It is quiet but we found enough restaurants for a lovely meal mingling with the local people watching the world go by so very relaxing. No loud music, drunks or commercialism. Very good quality food at reasonable prices. The apartment is not for the infirm as it is the penthouse.

We stayed in this flat for 14 nights this winter. The flat is on a perfect central location, in the Gran Tarajal city. I would definitely recommend this place for everyone. The flat is really comfortable and has all the amenities that are mentioned in the advertisement. The hosts of the flat were also very helpful. The communication and the booking process were all going very smooth. When we arrived they showed us everything that we should visit on the Fuerteventura island. I was amazed of their kindness.

The apartment is very comfortable and complete. Everything is well taken care of. The owners are also very kind and supportive. Gran Tarajal is a nice and quiet place. The apartment is very close to the boulevard and the small beach. A supermarket is only 50 meters from the apartment and also a fresh baker can be found in the same street. Gran Tarajal is also a good starting point for making trips. We really recommend this place'. R.N.
