Hotel Elba Sara 4*

All 266 rooms come with a private balcony or terrace, many looking out towards the Atlantic. Inside, it's a practical, comfortable set-up for golf trips: air conditioning, satellite TV, a direct-dial telephone and a spacious bathroom as standard. It's not trying to be flashy, but it works well if your priority is a reliable base between rounds.

Facilities-wise, the two outdoor pools are the heart of the hotel. Depending on the time of day and who's staying, one can feel more family-focused while the other is often a quieter option. The fitness suite, jacuzzi and sauna are a nice bonus after 18 holes, particularly if the wind's been up and you've walked the course. There's also a tennis court for a change of pace, plus a kids' club if you're travelling as a family group.

Food-wise, you've got three easy options on site. The Albatros Restaurant covers buffet-style meals with sea views from the terrace, which is ideal for groups with different tastes or tee times. The Tucan Grill is a more relaxed poolside choice with Spanish and international dishes. If you want something simpler and more focused, La Nonna serves Italian classics such as fresh pasta and pizzas.

The beachfront location means you're never far from the sand, and the immediate access to shops, cinemas and restaurants in the surrounding area gives you flexibility if you want to venture out in the evenings. The hotel works well as a base for golfers who want to play Fuerteventura Golf Club multiple times, enjoy the beach and the climate, and have enough on-site facilities to keep the trip varied without needing to plan every hour.
