We travelled to Jandia with Thomson.... it was the usual cramped flight now with no television or videos to pass the time. One of the four toilets was out of order and either I'm getting bigger or the seat are more cramped then ever! The private taxi transfer we booked with them was well worth the extra and we were...

The Calypso is perhaps one of the best places to stay in the south of Fuerteventura. It is right on the beach, south facing, a short walk from the shops and bars of Morro Jable and within walking distance of the resort of Playa Jandia. Our room, 325, had a wonderful view out to sea and was very quiet. I... More

We had been to this hotel a few years back, it was very good then. We are regular visitors to the resort of Jandia & noted the hotel was being refurbished, we thought we would like to go when completed. We could find no big UK travel agents who dealt with the hotel but found Corona Holidays. They were very... More

Having stayed at and thoroughly enjoyed the Riu Palace in Jandia in 2005 we wanted to return there in September 2009, but there were no sea-view rooms available. We read the reviews of the Riu Calypso and even though some of the photos were a bit worrying decided that the beach-side location was worth the risk of the hotel not... More

When we landed at Fuerteventura airport we hired a car and had a relaxing drive down to Morra Hable, just follow the main road right down South until you come to the hotel. Our 1st impressions of the hotel and location was beautiful. The reception were very friendly, our room was on the 2nd floor. (217). Our room was very... More

I stayed at the Riu Calypso from 22 - 29 December 2007 for my Christmas getaway and what a lovely treat. I had been struggling to find something suitable for over Christmas but had my eye on the Calypso. Although I paid more than I wanted to (£200+ single room supplement), it was well worth it. When I arrived at... More

My wife and I flew to Fuerteventura one week, starting with 26.Nov. The transfer from the airport to the hotel lasted about 1h. We arrived in the evening and a cold plate dinner was waiting for us, including a bottle of champagne at the reception. The room was as requested on the seaside, 6th floor. Because of the hill/sloap layout... More

The Riu Calypso seems have some kind of agreement with the German Senior Citizen's Association which our Swiss travel agent neglected to tell us about. Based on 3 dinner-guest counts I estimate it is 80% German and 85% over the age of 65. PROS + we always felt young, thin and sexy + the beaches were gorgeous and nearby (just... More

We recently had a week's stay at the Riu Calypso, and have to say how comfortable we found it. The rooms were great, ( although twin beds were the norm and not a double bed in sight!). The location just couldn't be better; right by a great, sandy beach, and on the edge of town. The hotel staff were very... More
