Iberostar Waves Gaviotas Park

Just spent 5 days in this gorgeous freshly renovated hotel. Thanks to all the staff for their professionalism and smiles! The food - great! The view from the little terrace - gorgeous! The hotel is very close to morro jable - this makes it easier to go for some shopping and a little walk on the beach! Thank you everybody!!

Very nice hotel, near the most beautiful long stretch of beach that has lots of friendly lorokeets and chipmunks that you can feed. Lots on for kids at this hotel, slides were fab. Buffet was always very nice, fresh show cooking was fabulous! Highly recommend the fresh tuna and breakfast pancakes. We will stay here again when we next go to Fuerteventura.

This hotel has been renovated to the best. Kids are real kings and queens. Every details is matched to the little one's: from the super cute beds in the family suite rooms, to the plastic plates in the restaurant, the little baby sunbeds near the pool, ... really superb! Adults can relax while the children are playing in one the 3 kids pools or doing one of the activities at the StarClub...if you are looking for "an adults friendly, kids are 200% welcome hotel"...this one is the one you need!

There are two Sister Hotels next to each other. Confusingly one is called Gaviotas Park, the other formerly Playa Gaviotas Park is now Waves Gaviotas Park. Waves is not the hotel on the beach front. It does not have Prestige like Gaviotas Park does, which is a good thing in my opinion. Waves is a lovely hotel, we are going back in September this year. Food is good with lots of it, there is always something available all day. There is one large heated pool and another large pool unheated but to be honest, they are both a good temperature. There are always sunbeds available. Guests are predominantly German and there is none of that nonsense of going down at 6 am to reserve beds. That seems to be Brit issue these days. There can be a lot of children here, even outside of the summer holidays as parents choose to bring there under 5’s at that time. The hotel was at capacity when we were there and there was sit plenty for everyone. Well worth a visit.

We travelled here as a family of four, x2 adults and x2 boys aged 3 and 5. The holiday was booked with jet2. First impressions of the hotel were really good. The reception area was decorated really nice for Christmas and the reception staff were really nice checking us in. While checking in were were offered a variety of drinks which was a nice touch. The hotel offered us the chance to have our room on an eco basis which meant that the room would be cleaned every other day as opposed to every day. In exchange for this we were told that we would get the room safe and mini bar use for the duration of our stay. We thought this was a good offer so agreed to it. What we found though was that the mini bar was only filled once and was stocked with x1 bottle of cava, x2 330ml bottles of San Miguel and some coke. When we asked at receptionwhy it was not refilled we were told that it was only once that the mini bar would be filled. We didn't feel this was a good offer at all considering the same items were included on the all inclusive basis! For our stay we had a family side sea view suite and this was large with enough storage for us. The bathroom was modern and clean. Food and drink was really good and all branded spirits. San Miguel beer on draft and the wine was good too. The only downside for the kids meals was there was never any chicken nuggets even at the snack bar which was a shame for our two boys. On the plus side every meal time there was an ice bucket filled with cava and rose cava. The hotel was advertised as having an indoor pool with jet2 which was one of the main reasons we booked the hotel. We were shocked to find when we got to the hotel that the was a 19 euro per person per hour charge to use this facility. In addition there were only certain days when your children can use this facility. As stated we travelled with our children and we found that the hotel mostly catered for their German guests. The children's mini disco was solely in German and as a result our children had little to no interest in it. The vast majority of the staff were friendly and happy to help however we had one of our pool towels stolen one day and the receptionist we spoke to couldn't have been any less helpful and fobbed us off. It wasn't until we spoke to the staff by the pool that we got the issue resolved. Overall a good hotel with good facilities and excellent food and drink. Would we return? Probably not for the reasons given around the indoor pool and the kids entertainment.

It’s 3.15am and staff Christmas party is ongoing. Crowds are yelling and music is still in the bar/theatre area. Neither me, nor my husband can sleep. Other guests are shouting from the balconies to the party people to shut up, drunken staff is laughing back. I went to reception, the guy was drinking water and nodding as I spoke to him, nothing was done. It’s a family hotel, I paid for this, not Ibiza club. I have three kids to take care of in the morning, I plain need rest.
