El mejor lugar del Sur de Fuerteventura

I was sceptical when I heard this hotel was closing for a refurb a couple of days after our stay, but if I hadn't have known I wouldn't have been able to tell as standards were so high. Our stay at Melia was the first abroad holiday for our children (5 and 6) and our first in 13 years. It did not disappoint one bit. The building was beautiful, especially when viewed from the beach; it looks like a little oasis. The marble throughout made it feel really special and it was kept incredibly clean. Reception has the Gabi Bar which has deep settees and canopied beds to lounge in. The rooms where just what we needed, beautifully cleaned and comfortable. I took some antibac wipes with me just in case but even the draws etc. were spotless. Lots of lovely little toiletries too for that extra touch. The restaurant buffets were incredible. They boasted fruit, salads, cheeses and breads at every meal, plus so many hot and cold options. Our favourite at breakfast was the pancakes. There were always a variety of gorgeous fish and meat options and safer things for a plainer palette like chips, pastas and pizzas. Some nights there were specials or themes like sushi and seafood. Desserts also hit the spot and the kids loved finding a chocolate fountain and a little sweetie bar! If that wasn't enough there was also a 'snack bar' open throughout the day, which was another monsterous buffet! The drinks included were also delicous and full of variety; beer on tap and mojitos galore, plus juices and slushies for the kids! The staff in the hotel couldn't do enough. All were very attentive and kind. We were aware the hotel was closing for refurb and were allowed to check out slightly later. Our days were spent by the pools or by the beach. The kids pool has two little slides and provided hours of entertainment for the kids. It was also next to a little park which they swapped between. They went to kids club once, which they also liked. The location really was the icing on the cake for us. Melia appears to be in the middle of nowhere, which was what we wanted, surrounded by sandy mountains and the sea. A lagoon was formed most days we were there which added to the magic and was perfect for the kids to play safely in the water. There were not many cons but for me to make it even more perfect I'd like to have seen: 2 sets of twin beds rather than a sofa bed for the kids Working heating/aircon in the room Bigger coffee cups at breakfast with faster machines Quicker lifts Longer hours at kids club Inflatables allowed at the kids pool A welcome sheet in the room saying what times activities/facilities there were Access to the hot tub for free (even if just one slot per stay - we paid and people cheekily joined us who hadn't paid) A bar near the beach!
