Vega de Río Palmas Vacation Rentals

"Fantastic hotel, large choice of food, pools were great for lounging or swimming. Drinks were very reasonable and options of different places to relax in. "

"Great location, 5 min walk or less to lots of restaurants, bars, shops. Beach about 8 min walk. Pool on site good (a little cold) but design of building good built as a square so protects from the wind well. Staff very helpful, especially the Argentinian gentleman (sorry didn’t ask your name). Courtesy lockers for late departures and can pay to use the shower room if required (10 euros for half an hour). Washing machines also available for 4 euros if needed. There is a shop next door for essentials too. The on-site cafe bar is privately owned and food just average, you can get much better things very close by. He does do a happy hour though, listen for the bell at 3pm! "

"Lovely room, good location next to the beach, harbour and local shops … convenient for the airport.. food was excellent "

"We enjoyed everything about our stay. Ocean view with a balcony. Room was spacious and the buffet breakfast was delicious. Will definitely come here again. "

"Great sea swims, v short walk from hotel."

"Hotel is very clean, seconds from the beach. Food is excellent and pools are cleaned daily."

"We've visited Fuerteventura a few times now, and stayed in this area each time. We usually stay in the hotel next door which is a 5 star, but decided to stay at the Elba this time which is a 4 star, but in all honesty we were not disappointed with our choice. We did bed and breakfast and the food and options in the morning were great. The facilities were really nice, great pools and grounds with access to the beach too. Staff were bang on point, and proper looked after us whilst celebrating a special date for us too. Rooms were kept clean throughout our stay and the air-con did a great job keeping us cool. There were no towels in the room on arrival, but I went to the front desk after waiting a while for some to be brought to our room and the staff gave me a couple of pool towels to get us through until the towels arrived the next day with housekeeping. No big deal at all. One thing that was different to other hotels I've stayed in is that we had to pay to use the room safe. €3 Euro's a day, so €21 for the week. I only mention this so you know what to expect before booking or on arrival. Like I said at the beginning, we normally stay in the 5 star next door, but I will happily be returning here again when visiting Fuerteventura. If you need a good affordable place to eat nearby I cannot recommend the Fado Rock Steakhouse enough. It's a 10-15 minute walk away. I eat there every night I'm on the island. The Elba Carlota Beach & Golf Resort is a hotel I definitely recommend."

"For me, this is a great location: a few minutes walk to the beach, and there is a nice supermarket (SPAR) almost on the property, and a couple more 5 and 10 minutes away walking distance (a bigger SPAR and a Hipodino). There are a lot of little shops that sell everything, a pharmacy, and plenty of restaurants. Although there will always be a few noisy people here and there no matter where you go, I've been to Bahia Calma Beach three times now, and I've never had a problem with noise, and in general it's very peaceful. And the staff is always very friendly and helpful! "

"Lovely hotel with amazing staff , all needs were tended too, the hotel is in a great location I would suggest a sea view room, the drinks package could be better, for a 4 star the cocktails were mixers and the overall standard of local drinks was very weak "
