first impression was not the best, receptionist wears shabby uniform, hair in our whirlpool, very cold water in swimming pool. 1st day we were sitting on the breakfast terrace, enjoying the stunning view, thinking: "gosh, this is really peaceful." 2nd day we realized we were almost always alone in gym and pool. no kids, no noisy tourists, no all inclusive,...

We booked into Risco del Gato for our last holiday as a couple before our baby arrives. We were looking for privacy, good food and sunshine. We really liked the pods- plenty of privacy for sunbathing etc and the jacuzzi was great. We were given 2 double beds in our room which I think they could change to one Super... More

I have just returned from a holiday at Risco del Gato which was one of the loveliest hotels I have ever stayed in. The design of the hotel is stylish and relaxing. The staff and service could not have been better. I can't recommend it highly enough. Just perfect. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Love the bathroom and the... More

Dear Guests, Thank you for your positive comments about your holidays in our hotel. Unfortunately not all of our rooms have frontal sea view, but due to our elevated position and the wide distance of about 100 metres to the H10 hotel it only blocks a part of the sea view, but not the views of our 34.643 m2 lush...

This all suite hotel was built between 1986 and 1988 and there are areas which appear not to have been upgraded since, although it has only recently been taken over by VIK Hotels. There are 45 junior suites and 6 senior suites. All are the same size internally, the senior suites have a much larger courtyard and second "pod" bedroom.... More

This hotel wasn't really for me, but it was clear from speaking to other guests that they loved it, so I will try to be as fair as possible in my comments. Firstly the positives. The standard of cleanliness around the hotel and in the rooms is exceptional. The food cannot be faulted. The beach is a short walk away... More

Don' believe what others say, this was really a horrible experience. It's overpriced, it's not next to the see, the food is mediocre, it smelled non stop of sewer, the staff was unhelpful, the beds were rock hard and I could go on and on and on. More

Stayed at the Risco del Gato in November 2011 and thoroughly enjoyed it. The 'pod' like structures are lovely and having your own private courtyard with sun beds was fabulous. The room included a very stylish bathroom with full walk in shower and circular jacuzzi bath, a dressing area, a bedroom with two double beds and a separate living room... More

We could not fault the accommodation, staff, or service at this all suite hotel. The meals were first class and varied with a good mixture of buffet and table serve at breakfast and dinner. The gardens were immaculate. The hotel is very quiet. There was no piped music at the pools or crowded areas. It was perfect for our needs... More

First of all, if you want to play ball sports and listen to loud music whilst sitting beside the swimming pool, then the Risco del Gato is not for you. However, if a peaceful stay with good food and not having to fight over sunbeds is more your ‘cup of tea’, then this is the place to stay. My wife... More

We drove around Fuerteventura (car hire is advisable) and saw many places. We think that Costa Calma is one of the best location, situated right at the beginning of the kilometer-long Playa de Sotovento, a spectacular, infinite white-golden beach, a paradise for windsurfers and kitesurfers (every year a wind and kitesurf world championship takes place there). The hotel is located... More
