Suite-Hotel Atlantis Fuerteventura Resort

This hotel is 20 min walk from main strip in Corralejo but it is through residential areas no shops or supermarkets to speak of along the route although you can follow the shore which is five minutes shorter walking but takes you to harbour end of town as opposed to top of strip on other route. I mention this because if you like to take a stroll in the evening to local shops or bars this really isn't the place for you. The hotel footprint is easily the largest I have stayed on with all the accommodation I saw, no more that 2 storey.
There is a huge building site behind this hotel with 5 large cranes, 5 days prior to our departure we received a letter advising us of building works in the area but could not get past call parking on First Choice telephone lines to find out exactly what was going on. In England a site this size would have in excess of 200 people on it here it was somewhat different, We passed the building site around 8 times (on the courtesy beach bus) and I only saw half a dozen people (scaffolders) twice. The large cranes I only saw move twice during our stay. There was absolutely no noise during our stay but there is a huge amount of construction still to do.
The hotel complex has around 5 pools aimed at different age groups and works really well. The pool aimed at teenagers is quite deep has activities like water polo throughout the day. It also has music pumping out of speakers as well. Another pool is only around 12 inches deep ideal for toddlers. We found one suitable for our children but unfortunately they both caught ear infections and the cost to visit the site doctor who arrives for 1 hour a day was 75 euros each, medication cost about 22 euros. I couldn't fault the hotel layout, apartment or food which was excellent. We had a ground floor 2 bedroom suite with terrace. Although maids left windows and doors open on no less that 3 separate occasions nothing ever went missing.
There were enough sun beds to go around although the obligatory towel placement early morning was still required. This is probably the most cosmopolitan hotel I have ever stayed in, there were French, German, Swedish, Italian and English and people arrived every day. At least 50% of the people were all inclusive (orange wristbands).
When we tried to get an upgrade from half board our reps were useless took 3 days to get back to us and then quoted 1600 euros for a party of 4. We went via hotel and got our kids bands for 10 euro a day adults were 20. We were away when suspected terrorists were arrested and although it was over a week later we still had probs with baggage rules not from airport but First Choice. Climate was excellent the odd slight breeze kept humidity to a minimum much nicer than Balearics at the same time of year. Local Netto supermarket was cheap, as was whole island, local wine less than two euros and quite palatable. Private beach local to hotel was a bit of a let down although it did have free sun beds it was rocky with little sand. The rock pools however were alive with fish and we spent a few mornings crabbing and netting tiddlers.
The free beach bus left almost hourly from 10.30 to the sand dunes which were excellent. Journey was only 5 min but the walk from bus stop to beach was another 5 min and although the road itself had been recently tarmacced the pavement was still unfinished. This was also true in some of the areas we visited, the island is undergoing massive expansion since the advent of its own airport. And building work continues along the coast. We had a fantastic time in a large complex hotel with good food and a great climate, but it is a little way out of town and really needs a cab journey 2 /3 euros to reach main strip.
