Shambhala Fuerteventura

Stayed here for our last 3 nights in Fuerteventura. An attractive apartment hotel with nice beachy decor and lovely planted gardens. Overall not a bad experience but there were some major flaws. The beds are small and very hard - had to use multi-folded blanket underneath to soften it up. Given that breakfast is usually included in similar type hotels, this one was a paltry affair with some weird offerings - sliced white toast and a tiny bowl of corn flakes between two people. Really? A more adult and healthier option would be muesli and some locally baked rolls. In fact there were no options - you got what you were given, the same every day, and not much of it. A very small choice of eggs or toast with ham/salmon which came plain and undressed. Hot drinks were bad. Three coffee machines/makers in the apartment, but no kettle for making tea. We made do with a saucepan. This place is fine if all you want to do is flop around the pool all day - there is little else around, apart from a busy road on one side, and a small urbanisation with a couple of eateries on the other. A car pretty essential to get to supermarket for supplies. If you don't want the experience of the big resort hotels then this would be an okay and cheaper alternative.

Absolutely lovely place, very chic, modern and very clean. Great pool and poolside bar serving breakfast and snacks Very friendly staff who were helpful with everything. Reception helped us hire a car quickly and easily and also a taxi to the airport. (Hire car is a must) Also visited the Plantera restaurant linked to the hotel in Corralejo which was great. Only downside for us was no aircon but the lady in the pool bar helped us with a fan.

Nice and new hotel. We had a room for 4. We had to leave it around 11 but our plane left in the evening. We got the possibility to shower in one of the rooms. Great room. An extra fan would have been nice. The upper room had ceiling fan but the living room with the sofa bed not. Therefore it was hot and we were bothered by mosquitoes.

Very nice place, great surprise for us ! Appartement was clean and contained everything you need. It’s also quite big. People were very nice to us during our short stay. Pool bar food and cocktails were great 👍🏻

Our time in Shambhala Fuerteventura could not have been better! It started to be great when Fernanda (Receptionist of the Shambhala Fuerteventura) contacted me concerning our upcoming time/holiday at the hotel. Fernanda is such a heartwarming and professional person and makes you feel welcome the moment she gets in touch with you. In fact everyone at the Shambhala was very kind and helpful! Thank you so much! You are a great team!!! Fernanda helped us making our stay the stay we hoped it to be when we booked the Shambhala Fuerteventura. Thank you so much Fernanda! We were two "nomad girls" :) travelling together for the first time (or first holiday together). I arrived one day earlier than my friend and had not been travelling alone the last 2 years ... the moment I met Fernanda the journey felt good and I felt like coming home. No, better because the Shambala is such a wonderful and beautiful place to be. :) We had such a nice apartment. The view was great and verything was clean and everything we need was there, just perfect. The pool bar was exceptional, too. The sunbeds at the pool were really (!) comfortable and all made out of massive wood, very high quality. A light music played at the bar during daytime, just easy music and just the right voume (decent). Loved it. Good vibes :) We ordered healty food at the beach bar and had daily a wonderful breakfast. The breakfast and every food you order is made fresh for you, every single day. You can enjoy the breakfast your on your own terrace if you want or directly at the beach bar (your toes in the sand if you wish). The Shambhala is situated just perfect. The most woderful white (and guarded!) beach is a short 10 Minutes drive from the Hotel. We had a car – what was great for exploring the island. We loved to go to Lajares, a city very close by; it was our absolute favorite spot ... Small, great food and a surfer/digital nomad community with a relaxed vibe. Don't miss it! Our second favourite city was El Cotillo for watching the sunset with a drink and eating fresh fish. I was so happy our Hotel was not directly in one of the cities because we loved the calmness of the Shambhala and its distance to the "hot spots" which might get a little overcrowded during summer. From the Airport it was an easy 24 minutes drive to the Shambhala. We had a parking place there and all hotel doors opened with an app (innovative, worked great) Last but not least: The Shambhala has a wonerful Yoga room AND a fitness studio with the newest fitness devices – all free to use anytime it feels right for you. There are yoga classes to attend and ... in near future there will be another room with large tables where you can (co)work if you choose the Shambhala for a longer stay as a digital nomad for example. What I will definitively do next time :) I am looking very much forward in getting back to Shambhala very soon. I already miss thiswonderful place and the exceptional island of Fuerteventura. Everyt

This is a lovely apartment which is fully equipped. The pool and pool bar is just what you need for a relaxing the stay. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. It is far out so you either need to hire a car to get to a supermarket and main attractions, or like we did order taxis. Taxis cost around €25 euro each way so is on the expensive side, but overall a lovely calming place to stay.
