IFA Altamarena by Lopesan Hotels - All Inclusive in Morro del Jable

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for a week in Jandía, Fuerteventura. Overall, we had a nice holiday, but there were a few positives and negatives worth mentioning. The hotel itself was very clean and well maintained. The grounds were absolutely impeccable and clearly cared for by hardworking staff. Our room was lovely and the beds were really comfortable, which made for a great night’s sleep. However, the housekeeping wasn’t the best – our sheets weren’t changed during the entire week, which was a little disappointing. The food was actually very good. As with most all-inclusive hotels it did become a bit repetitive, but everything we tried was tasty and there was always something to eat. The staff throughout the hotel work incredibly hard and most of them were very friendly and welcoming, although some were definitely warmer than others. Entertainment in the evenings was okay but quite limited – it was usually only around two hours per night and not particularly memorable. One thing that might be important for other travellers to know is that the hotel – and much of Jandía in general – is very German-orientated. We didn’t realise this before we arrived. If you’re English and travelling with children, it might not feel like the best fit. We personally enjoy interacting with people and being part of the atmosphere when we travel, and we found that a bit difficult here. That said, the beach is absolutely stunning. We walked for miles along it every day and it was definitely one of the highlights of the trip. Morro Jable, which is a short walk away, is also fantastic with some great restaurants and bars. My husband is football-mad, and we managed to find a brilliant place showing the Premier League and Champions League – Buddha Bar near Burger King. The staff there were fantastic, really accommodating, and very friendly. Overall, we had a nice break and enjoyed parts of our stay, but it’s probably not somewhere we would return to. If we came back to Fuerteventura, we would likely choose a different resort that suits us a little better.

Spent two weeks enjoying this really good hotel. Brilliant location, lovely pool area excellent food, drink and entertainment. Before I arrived I read some reviews that concerned me however, had a good experience. Yes the hotel could do will a little up dating but my room was very clean with great beds and nice bathroom. Public area also more than satisfactory. I will be booking again for next year.

A & AB RM 359 30.12.25 - 06.01.26 Thanks to Director Christian and all of his well polished team. 2 years on since staying here and standards have maintained high. Anyone who complains about the food would complain about anything. The New Years Eve Gala night and food were tops and entertainment and all the team worked so hard , so helpful and smiling to all clients. My Wife has 3 food allergies and is very hard to cater for , so a very special THANKS to Andrea from the kitchen who translated and made sure she was catered for precisely for the 7 Days . WELL DONE EVERYBODY WE WILL BE BACK THX 12 out of 10 !!!!

A huge bonus of staying here is the location. It's the best of all the hotels in the area with a side gate directly from the hotel on to the beach road where it's a short walk to the beach. The beach is huge, sandy and very clean with sunbeds available and a nice little beach bar. It's a smallish hotel which felt quite intimate and meant it was never far to go back to the room for anything. For the first time for years there were no fights for sunbeds which made such a change. There was always somewhere to set up. The pools were very attractive but unfortunately two of them were so cold no-one could use them. However, this was mitigated by the smaller of the pools being really well heated which was ideal for families and very pleasant. Our room overlooked the road which was a bit of a shame but we accepted that someone has to and it wasn't too unpleasant, quite nice to watch people. Maybe it helped being on the 2nd floor. It was a little small. The shops and bars nearby are great for a wander, it made a change compared to the usual resorts we've stayed in which were more isolated. You can buy the usual seaside tat/souvenirs but they also have some smart shops too which were very reasonable. Food was a bit of a disappointment. We had to make allowances for it being a small hotel but there wasn't a great deal of choice and some of it was not heated properly. Salads particularly were disappointing but that's a personal thing. Some things ran out, you had to time it right if you wanted orange juice or a banana for example (mind you, I did see one lady walk out with 5, you're always going to get people like that). However, the restaurant was run very efficiently, never a problem to find a table, tables cleared and relaid quickly, friendly staff. Having said food was disappointing we thought the pool snack bar was great, always something to snack on and great for children. Sandwiches, nuggets, chips, churros, cakes, fruit.....very good. Bar service great in both bars, never had to wait long. Very happy with self-service wine, beer and soft drinks. Heads up - practice your beer pouring before you come, so many people ended up with a glass of foam 😂. Quality of drinks was good. Entertainment - well we were quite happy, I don't know what some people expect but we thought it was good for a small hotel. The only thing that was a negative was housekeeping, one day our room wasn't touched, another time dirty cups/glasses were left and tea making supplies not replenished and then another day we found a plastic glove left on the side. However, even with the negatives we would return as for us the pros definitely outweighed the cons.
