Iberostar Selection Fuerteventura Palace

This hotel is exactly as described by every other 5 star reviewer on here. The staff work tirelessly, they all go out of their way to help, assist, serve, greet, clean & maintain Iberostar Palace. I read a review that said 'speak to reception if you have an issue". I second that opinion. They are trained to iron out any issue. We had a room issue, Yolander sorted it, we had a safe issue, the maintenance person came within 15 mins. The attention to detail is apparent. As well as a daily maid, there is an evening maid too who pulls curtains, replaces any towels & leaves a chocolate on your pillow. Thoroughness is well observed here. I am very into fitness & I was impressed by the gym, although small, it was well stocked & maintained with a good range of free weights, barbells, safety clips, medicine balls & even a weightlifting cage. Often resort gyms have damaged, out-dated equipment, not with Iberostar Palace. I've uploaded gym photos of the weights section as I always wish someone else would do this when I'm reading reviews. To the hotel, could you purchase a barbell neck support please for guests to use? I also had a massage. Coral, my masseur was phenomenal. When lying on my front, she placed a towel under my feet for comfort & when on my back; a towel very lightly over my eyes to ensure I relaxed. She was very experienced & didn't scrimp on time. I left floating on air. The Japanese restaurant was worth a visit. It was a fun evening. Someone commented that reserving sun beds is frowned upon; that didn't stop people putting towels down I'm afraid. We like early morning sun & were often settled around the pool by 8.30. We are normally beach people, but having the sunbeds overlooking the sea made the convenience of the pool attractive. The sun bed mattresses are very comfortable & the pool is blissfully quiet. Staff came around with a trolley offering melon or a sneaky late afternoon cocktail. We even had a saxophonist serenade the pool one afternoon. I particularly enjoyed not having to remember to carry a room key. It was delightful to have the room key chip in the form of a wrist band. My top tips for the hotel are: If you are a water guzzler like me, the karafe in the room won't see you far & Iberostar Palace is ethically plastic free. Bring a large water bottle to keep topping up. Swim up rooms are worth every penny, but rooms on the end of the block are a bit of a push to call a swim up room. These tips are not related to the hotel: The beach sun loungers are €15 a day cash only There's a public toilet on the beach but the lady's door doesn't close, take your own loo roll with you & don't flush it down the loo! There is a toilet at the cafe too. There's a fantastic running path at the base of the hotel access to the beach. You'll need your phone torch if you're going pre-sunrise, but watching the sun rise on your run back is outstanding

very out dated 4 star hotel, Not 5 ! rooms rough knocked up furniture & ikea style , lobby 1990’s old fashioned with broken wicker seating definitely not got the luxury wow factor! buffet food , canteen style food dirty glasses , dirty bedding , will not return stayed in better 4 stars

We visited this hotel at the end of January 2025 as a group of friends. A lovely, quiet hotel with fantastic staff. Aliou in the bar and Marlon on entertainment were our favourites , but everyone was so friendly and attentive. The hotel is very well maintained and we found the food and drink to be very good, with premium spirits included in the price. Rooms are spotless and well appointed. We had a really relaxing stay and can’t wait to come again. The only thing I would improve is the range of gluten free food and accuracy of food labelling, but a small point that only really affected me not my friends.

We returned from the Iberostar Selection last week, and wish we were still there! This hotel is by far the best all-inclusive we have ever stayed at. From the warm welcome, the exceptional service continued throughout the duration of our stay. Our room was lovely, having a sea view, and plenty of space. There was a large wardrobe, plenty of hangers and a big bathroom with a fab shower, toiletries, robes and lots of lovely soft towels. The main restaurant was lovely. There was plenty of room between the tables, and it was light and airy. The food itself was just exceptional in terms of quality and choice. There was something different every night, and during our stay we enjoyed steak, duck, lobster and so many different types of freshly cooked fish. There was a huge choice of salads, pasta, desserts and cheeses. We couldn’t fault the food at all. There were plenty of activities available every day, and although we chose only to take part in a couple of these, we did enjoy daily walks along the beach and went swimming in the sea a couple of times. There are shows each night, finishing around 10-10.30, at which point the majority of guests seems to go to bed. The bar does however, remain open until 12.30! If we had to choose one thing which set this hotel apart from others however, it would have to be the staff. They were simply amazing. They worked smoothly as a team, always smiling, and nothing was ever too much trouble. The staff certainly deserve acknowledgement as they definitely help to make this hotel what it is. 👏👏👏 Overall, we just had the best time in Fuerteventura and would, without hesitation, recommend this hotel. Just as a side note, there are some negative reviews of this hotel, commenting on the tired and outdated appearance of the reception area and other parts of the hotel - I think there may be some confusion as there are three Iberostar hotels within a very short distance of one another. I can only assume that the negative comments should refer to one of the other hotels as this hotel is neither tired nor outdated!

This was a wonderful stay from the minute you are greeted with a glass of bubbly 🍾 to the end of our lovely holiday. The staff were friendly, patient, spoke a variety of languages and were genuinely helpful. The food is amazing, fresh, vibrant and so much choice. We will definitely be returning to stay here.

I want to start this review by saying I can’t understand anyone that gives this hotel less than 5 stars. We arrived at the hotel after a long day travelling to be greeted by the most wonderful receptionist. Despite her informing us of her lack of English we didn’t have any issues at all, we also were treated to a glass of Prosecco which was appreciated. To our surprise we had been given a complementary upgrade to a pool side room, with a terrace and two sun loungers. This was amazing, however I must note if you book this room request a room between 4201 and 4210 as the later rooms were out of the sun by around 2:30pm. This was no issue as we still managed to get sun loungers around the main pool area in the afternoon. The location of the hotel is spectacular with some amazing sunsets and sunrises. Morro Jable is a short taxi or a 40 min walk away and is full of designer shops on the “new town” and some delightful coffee shops etc in the “old town”. I note some reviews mention this hotel is predominantly German guests. This is true but given my knowledge of the area this is to be expected and quite frankly is not an issue. I enjoyed the daytime entertainment especially the aqua gym. The staff were incredible and really make this hotel, nothing was too much trouble. Again I’ve seen another review complaining of language issues with the staff, this was not something we experienced. Speaking a little bit of Spanish went a long way and was appreciated. Finally the food was excellent, at each meal there was plenty of choice and the food was always hot and tasty. I was surprised to see items such as caviar, beef carpaccio and oysters, something I wouldn’t expected at an all inclusive buffet. The drinks choice is extensive and the service was speedy. We will certainly be returning.
