We returned from our fifth visit to the Esmeralda in two years a few days ago and yet again it did not disappoint. Hotel was as lovely as ever and all the staff were as friendly and hardworking as previous visits. It was great to see everyone again and also meet some new members of the team. All the staff are a credit to the hotel. We cannot fault this hotel and it suits us perfectly for our needs. We always stay in Privilege and look forward to sampling the new dinner menu which launched a few days after we left. The new Stromboli Italian restaurant is a nice addition to the hotel and well worth trying. Costa Calma is a low key resort not for party animals. Looking forward to returning late October.

Our third stay now and we weren't disappointed . From arrival you get such a lovely friendly welcome from the staff, and that continued throughout the holiday with all staff being so cheerful. All of the hotel is well maintained, always so clean and tidy. Our room was as usual perfect and the ladies that clean the rooms are always checking in to stock us up if we need anything . Enjoyed meals at all the restaurants and the entertainment was great. Highly recommend the Esmeralda

Had a 10 day stay late in April. We were warmly welcomed, check-in was excellent and very informative, we were given a welcome glass of bubbly and taken to our room. We had booked a privilege junior suit and “wow” it was amazing with the biggest balcony and fantastic sea views. The beds were huge and very comfortable. Plenty of wardrobe and drawer space. Bathroom had a great walk-in shower. The housekeeping came every day and kept the room spotless, my husband enjoyed communicating with Jessica via google translate. We were also visited every evening and offered clean towels and given chocolates and extra coffee when we needed it. The main buffet restaurant did get busy at peak times however the staff cleared and re-laid tables very efficiently, drink orders were taken and delivered to your table very quickly. The choice of food was varied and replenished continually, if something had run out it was replenished within a very short time, which meant the food was a good temperature. We ate breakfast in the Privilege dinning room and the choice was fantastic. Fresh coffee (tea) and orange juice brought to the table, orders taken for hot food taken and this was prepared to order, I liked asking for just bacon and would get a fresh bread roll to make a bacon bap…yummy. The breads, pastries, cold meats, fresh fruit etc were brilliant. We also ate here on several evenings and the food was just fantastic. We also ate a couple of evenings in the new pizzeria Stromboli and again it’s fantastic. The only negative we can say about either the El Jable and Stromboli is for us the portion sizes were huge!! We had lunch a few of times at the Maxorata snack bar, once was for the BBQ which was lovely and loads to choose from, they made lovely cocktails/mocktails. We went to Mikes coffee a couple of times (the milkshake was not to our liking) but the coffee latte macchiato Bailey’s was so good. We liked the privilege lounge, it was nice to go in there for a drink before dinner. The entertainment in the Blue bar was very chilled and relaxed but we spent evenings at the Maxorata bar as preferred the entertainment down there. Please be aware that not all of the staff speak English however they will go above and beyond to try and communicate with you, even asking other staff to help with finding out what we wanted. Personally we never encountered anything other than polite, happy, helpful staff who really did everything to make our stay as positive as possible. When we come back to Fuerteventura we will definitely be booking Playa Esmeralda again.
