Beach front property Fuerteventura – If You Don’t Want A Package Deal, Rent Direct!
A beach front property in Fuerteventura is now one of the most sought after holiday rentals in the Canary Islands, where package holidays and hotels are no longer the most popular choice. In fact it is a dying industry and is being replaced by self-catering holidays where holidaymakers prefer to book their own private seaside Spain villas or to rent a beach front property in Fuerteventura direct. Fuerteventura is absolutely ideal for this self-catering holiday market as it is the second largest of the Canary Islands and has an abundance of sandy beaches. This relaxed environment makes it very appealing to people who are booking apartments or luxury villas to rent in Spain.
One of the advantages of booking a private apartment or villa in Fuerteventura is you can please yourself during your vacation. Contrary to popular belief it is very easy to book direct from the owners using the internet. In addition you have the luxury of doing so in your own home or your work place and you can take your time and really have a good look at any apartments or luxury villas to rent in Spain you may be interested in. Furthermore by simply e-speaking you can ask whatever questions you want. i.e. Is it available for rent ? How much is it? Is a welcome pack provided? Or anything else you need to know.
Fuerteventura is Spanish territory and part of the Canary Islands and probably most famous for its fabulous beaches. The climate in Fuerteventura is very similar to that of Florida and Mexico, but it is only approximately 4 hours flight time from the UK. Fuerteventura is on the same meridian as Florida which makes renting of beach front property in Fuerteventura very popular. It has superb average temperatures of 23°C and the fairly consistent warm breeze makes it very pleasant indeed. The majority of rental properties are around the main villages and towns but there are plenty of ocean front apartments or seaside Spain villas for you to rent which cover all budgets.
So if you are looking for a beach front property in Fuerteventura, there are so many areas to select from. Jandia in the south is where you will discover most of the best beaches on the island, with lagoons and small dunes. Correlejo is in the north-east of the island and is often first choice for seaside Spain villa rentals by northern Europeans. It has a blue Flag Beach with all sorts of sporting activities including snorkeling and windsurfing with courses for beginners available if needed. In the east of the island is Costa Caleta which is a man-made tourist resort. It caters mainly for overseas visitors so is not the place to go if you want traditional Canarian food, as the restaurants serve mainly English and Chinese cuisine.
There are lots of reasons for booking a beach front property in Fuerteventura but the number one reason has to be the weather followed closely by the fantastic beaches and the opportunity to simply relax and enjoy everything this lovely island has to offer. On the other hand, if you want to be a bit more active then, like in the rest of Spain, there are some great golf courses. The oldest is the Fuerteventura Golf Club which is very popular with enthusiasts. It is an 18 hole par 70 course. There is also a very popular course called Salinas de Antigua Golf which was designed by Manolo Piñeiro, twice world champion, ideal if you are simply a social golfer. There is a special feeling in spending a day on this golf course knowing you are going to return to your private villa rental in Spain and chill out around the pool with a glass of wine before strolling down to your favourite restaurant.
Along with luxury villas to rent in Spain for golf holidays there are other opportunities to be more active, for instance you could take a trip in a glass-bottomed boat, to the nearby volcanic island of Lobos, which is located off the northern tip of Fuerteventura. If you want a day out and are interested in a bit of history there are trips to the to two castles on the island or you could visit Poblado de La Atalayita which is a village of primitive stone dwellings, or visit Tefia which is the home of the new Eco Museum.
Finally if you do decide to book a beach front property in Fuerteventura and decide to do some sight-seeing then don’t forget to book your car hire in advance as you can usually get a better deal if you book before you go. Also don’t forget to book your own travel insurance; we always suggest you use the services of a reputable travel insurance broker to ensure you get adequate cover.
