Club Jandia Princess

Located above a beautiful wide beach, this vibrant holiday village has a mix of adult-only and family rooms in a series of attractive white stone buildings. There are plenty of facilities to keep both groups happy, including several pools and restaurants. At first glance, the property is bright and welcoming with a modern central atrium that has a greenhouse vibe. Leafy foliage and crisp white armchairs fill the open plan lobby, with a bar on one side and plenty of quiet seating nooks.  During our 2017 visit we spotted a mix of German, English, French, and Italian families and couples of all ages. Given its modern interiors and well-kept communal areas, this is a great choice for an upscale beach holiday near Morro Jable. 

The Club Jandia Princess is located amidst a cluster of similar resorts, above sandy Esquinzo Beach. The beach can be accessed from both the adult and family areas, via a steep staircase, which can be difficult for some guests. The hotel is a five-minute walk from the nearest supermarket and well located for exploring the island. Fuerteventura's traditional town of Morro Jable is a 15-minute drive away. Solana Matorral (a nine-minute drive) is also worth a visit, with plenty of attractions including the skeleton of a sperm whale and a picturesque lighthouse. The main street  is lined with international restaurants and souvenir shops. The popular beach town of Cofete, within Jandia National Park, is an hour-drive away. From the hotel, Fuerteventura airport is around a 70-minute drive away.
