Caleta de Fuste, Fuertesol Apartments

Stayed 10 days at Fuertesol Apartments in March , nothing to complain about , Bungalows were clean, well presented had sun all day, when it goes from the front you have a back door to sit outside as well. Maids very efficient clean towels and sheets, kettle, toaster & everything you needed to cook if you didn't want to eat out. Beds were fine especially the mattress, Planes were not a problem although apartments are situated directly under the flight path. Large swimming pool. Shop for basics on site. The supermarkets, shops, bars and restaurants only 10 – 15 minutes’ walk away. The very large beach was 15 - 20 minute walk. There is a bus stop on the corner of the road and a Market right across the road every Saturday and Tuesday. Ideal location, good value for the money would recommend.

Cockroaches. Fridge: black with mold on the door and inside all over it. Rusted completely through on the door, both outside and inside Lights hanging off the walls, with the wiring exposed. Windows not lockable. Cockroaches coming up through the plug holes, between the cracks in the tiles at the taps on the bath and the wash hand basin. Had to 'plug' with baby wipes to prevent them from coming in. Couldn't leave the doors open for packs of cats running around all the time. Pigeons droppings on the walls in front of the apartment. Pigeons everywhere. I found a dead sparrow in the rocky area in front of my apartment when I arrived and so by the time we were departing all that was left of it was maggots wriggling around (it lay there for 14 days). Apartments very shoddy, doors on the kitchen units not closing properly, drawers hanging off, very unclean with blue/black mold on the tiles. The toilet was much the same, blue/black mold in and around the bath and the wash hand basin. Shower curtain held up with electrical insulating tape. All in all a complete disaster, by luck my sister in law and her husband were staying in the Broncemar Beach, and my kid stayed there for the complete holiday as he was terrified to sleep in the apartments. I think I covered everything. To back all this up I have a full documented picture gallery and video links of this holiday disaster. Please don't go here, the apartments were a complete joke. The apartments were fumigated and yet the cockroaches kept coming back. I asked to be moved but was told there would be no guarantee the other apartments would be cockroach free, and they were in much the same condition.

The apartments are in a great location, and it is a quick walk to the centre and beach. There is plenty to see and do, and it is a great place for families. I would definitely go again.

The Fuertesol apartments were among the best I have ever been too, the staff were more than happy to help with any queries and the facilities were great. The location was great; a simple walk brought you in the centre of all amenities.

Fuertesol Apartments:

We have very limited experience with this type of accommodation in the Canaries - Reasonable basic / clean. The Maid service was ok. I'm Not sure whether we would visit again in August - too busy and HOT.
