Just landed back this monday morning, sad to come home had great week, been to resort before which is fantastic anyway loads of bars and restaurants. the Apartments were lovely really clean and spacious, new kitchen. beds were made everyday. pool is small but only 28 rooms anyway, always got a sun lounger. staff are very friendly. great place to stay for self catering. about 15mins walk to centre, but 5 mins if you get onto the beach.

Got back yesterday from a wonderful week in Corralejo. Stayed at these appartments and felt we must write to say how great they are. Had read some previous reviews, nothing too scary to report there but we weren't quite prepared for how lovely they were. The appartments were very spacious, ideal for two people, the bedroom was airy and comfortable with great storage and ours had a fantastic view over to the harbour and town itself. the bathroom was huge again with excellent storage for your bits and pieces, kitchen spacious and loads of cupboard space, decent size fridge and freezer if you wish to stock it up. Lounge area had two full size sofas. We had a first floor appartment which had a balcony overlooking the pool area, gardens and bar and was furnished with a sun lounger and a table and four chairs. the appartment was spotlessly clean on arrival and kept that way all week, every morning we watched the team clean the pool and surrounding areas thoroughly.The bar did food from 9.00am onwards which was of good quality and very reasonable. They also bake fresh croissants and baguettes every morning which you can order the day before and they are delivered to your room, hot the following morning !! Tha bar also has a small mini market stocking all essentials, water etc, and there are several larger supermarkets within walking distance. It's about a 20 min walk into the town but we went every night and ate in some great restaurants. All in all a wonderful place, small ( only 28 appts ) so if you are looking for a relaxing holiday not too far from all the action we can highly recommend this place, we shall certainly going back there. The only fault we found is that there are only cups and saucers in the appartments so if you like your morning cuppa in a mug you'll be disappointed. The staff are great guys, there was no iron or board in the appartment and when we asked Antonio if they had one we could borrow there was one left in our room the next day. There is also two w.c's by the pool area which you can use save going back to yours which again were spotlessly clean. Another good thing is on the day of our return we weren't being picked up til 5pm but had to vacate at noon,they gave us somewhere to leave our luggage and also let us use the spacious bathroom hidden away behind the bar to change and shower in before we left, at no extra charge i might add. A great place, what more can i say.

apartments spacious and clean. had to wait thirty minutes on arrival to occupy them due to cleaning even though we arrived at 2pm and guests are requested to vacate by 10 am.patio door was broken,toilet flush packed up on 4th night,had to ask twice to have it fixed. it was the following night before it was eventually fixed and the guy on reception dealing with it was extremely rude. no lighting on stairway. had to reqest change of towels also.no facilities for young couples with families pool bar closed at 9. guy in pool bar very jolly and helpful only redeeming feature in this very poor value for money arartment.nowhere near 4star.

Like the reviewer from Lincolnshire, who we met while there, we stayed at the Miralobos Apartments over Christmas 2005. We too found the apartments clean, spacious and with very friendly staff, although relatively simply furnished.

The apartments are either ground floor or first floor with patios or balconies arranged in three blocks of respectively 8, 10 and 10 apartments around a garden and sun terraces with a not particularly large swimming pool and small childrens pool.

We were however unfortunate that our apartments were in Block 3 (Nos 19 - 28) which is the least desirable of the three blocks for two reasons. Firstly all the patios (ground floor apartments) or balconies (1st Floor apartments) face North and hence don't get any sun all day. In December it is not hot enough to enjoy meals particular breakfast in the shade. Secondly they also back onto (about 5 meters away) the major road into the town. There is no entrance to the apartment complex from this road and they are screened by a form of hedge. While this is not exactly a major motorway, there are enought buses and lorries at night and in the early morning to create a bit of a noise problem especially for each alternative apartment which has the bedroom window opening onto that side (as ours did). This block very effectively screens the other apartments and the pool from the road and the problem really only relates to the six apartments whose bedrooms face that way.

The apartments consist of effectively a studio unit with a particularly spacious bathroom plus an extra separate bedroom. Hot water is provided by an electric water heater / storage tank for each unit, which produces fine hot water for dish washing and showers but isn't large enough to fill the bath, although it does reheat relatively rapidly.
Apartments are cleaned (swept and mopped out) 5 days a week and bed linen and towels were also changed during our stay, although we don't know whether being over Christmas this was on the regular routine.
There is a pool bar open from 09:00 to 20:00 every day (including over Christmas) which has a limited shop, library, and also serves snacks such as hot croissants, bacon rolls etc. in addition to hot and cold drinks.
The complex is situated on a quiet cul de sac of villas and is secured by high fences and has security TV cameras and a front gate that is supposed to be (but was not always) locked at night.
There is a Netto Supermarket about 400 Metres away while the "Roadhouse" a British run pub/restaurant with evening entertainment is at the entrance to the cul de sac (200 Metres). It is about 15 minutes walk (the opposite way to traffic up a one way road with cycle track) to the major shopping / restaurant areas of the town (3 Euro Taxi Fare one way) or you could walk round the Bay (beaches and rocks, but not too much of a scramble) to the Old Port in about 20 minutes. The main beaches are along the coast in the other direction.
The complex appears to be maninly popular British and Irish guests booked through a limited number of travel companies.

Like the other recent reviewers we had good and bad meals in town. We particularly liked El Tran which serves a wide ranging menu from Tapas ("to nibble") to pizza and fresh fish. The worst was in an English run bar "Castaways" early on Christmas Eve where the food which came after a very long wait was nothing like that which we had ordered nor indeed the Menu description of any item known to any chef of any nationality.

We did have a hire car and found driving and navigating easy with surprisingly well surfaced roads to even the most modest of hamlets. Using the car we often went to El Cottillo which is about 20 mins away and which is a less developed fishing village on the wilder west coast of the island. We particularly enjoyed the restaurants there, in particular Il Capitano, where we had a great Christmas Day meal of tapas, home made fish soup, grilled dorada (sea bream) with garlic, creme catalan; all in the sun overlooking the harbour.

We also took the ferries which run on the hour (two companies alternate) to Lanzarote. Hiring a car from Cigar which has offices in the ferry booking offices at both ends we went to the Volcanos National Park, the Green Lagoon, the beaches of Papagayo, Puerto del Carmen and Playa Blanca all in the day. The only thing the watch is that the last return ferry is at 19:00.

With the car, we also explored the other resorts on Fuerteventura. No one would however describe the island as beautiful! We found Caleta de Fuste a bit too near the airport for our choice and also it appeared entirely a purpose built resort with no local character. Morre Jable in the Jandia area had some character but also very large hotel complexes built into the cliff side and we were somewhat bermused by a large party of Germans (at least they spoke German) of all ages and shapes who shed all their inhibitions while crossing the main public promenade between thir hotel and the beach.

We therefore felt that Corralejo offered the best compromise between facilities and local character for those who wish to do their own thing but don't want to be isolated. That just about sums up the apartments as well.

We would certainly consider going back but perhaps not imminently nor next Christmas.
