Sol Fuerteventura Jandia - All Suites

J C

We just finished 2 weeks at Sol Jandia and definitely recommend it. The rooms were clean and tidied every day and the view from our balcony was great. No issues overall with the service but some staff were far more friendly and accommodating than others, I found the experience in the Lobby bar and restaurant far more pleasant than the Pool and Snack bar, the quality of drinks is also far better in the Lobby bar so we would get drinks there and then take them to the pool. Most of the time you’ll get a pre-made cocktail from a slushie machine but the lobby bar would frequently make them from scratch and put a bit more effort in. The food was fine, it’s not 5* and it’s not always consistent but the variety of what’s on offer is great. Some of the food I loved, some I didn’t but you can never expect everyone to like everything when catering for so many. Saving the best until last is the activity and entertainment team, exceptional. All so friendly, so funny and all of the activities were worthwhile. Definitely a must if you have kids but also a lot of great things for the adults (don’t underestimate their circuit training or fitness classes, I’m still sore) General tips for anyone staying in the area: if you rent a car be careful if it’s on the day of the market or the day or before/after. There is a lot of parking out the front of the hotel and the main car park becomes the market on a Thursday but when the market is on, the people who have market stalls will absolutely box every car in without a problem and it’s impossible to find the owner of the vehicles. We couldn’t return our hire car despite parking it where Avis requested, because 3 market trucks boxed the car in along with several others who couldn’t move. If you like swimming/snorkelling, go down to the beach and follow it to the rocks/cliffs towards the harbour. We were surprised by a huge stingray within 2 minutes that we ended up swimming with for almost an hour. Most places that require tickets for entry like the zoo (which was great), tend to class any ages over 10-12 as an adult, so be aware that you’ll likely pay adult prices for any kids between 10-16 depending where you go

I expected more from a 4-star resort, but unfortunately my stay did not meet expectations. Cleaning was disappointing: towels and bed linen were only changed on request, and although the room was cleaned daily, it was done very quickly and the floor often remained dirty. Check-in also took unusually long, and we had an issue with the room lock, which was inconvenient and not resolved quickly. Some staff members were not welcoming and at times looked irritated when asked for help, which felt uncomfortable. The food was another letdown. The buffet had a very limited selection, the quality was poor, and most dishes tasted the same. For a 4-star resort, I expected fresh and varied meals, not repetitive options. The pool snack bar was also inconvenient due to dress code restrictions. Drinks in the all-inclusive system were very limited, with only four machine-made cocktails included, while other options required extra payment. Even coffee was only served in proper cups if you paid. Overall, the resort has a good location, but the service, food, and overall experience did not justify the 4-star rating. I would not choose to stay here again.

The hotel's biggest advantages are: 1. very dedicated and helpful staff; 2. 200 meters from a large, clean, and well-maintained beach (toilets, sunbeds); 3. location near shops, bus stops, and a 10-minute walk along a beautiful promenade to Morro Jable; 4. hotel situated in a beautiful garden, low-rise buildings, and nicely separated areas; 5. a variety of sports activities. A few things that could be improved are: 1. the garbage disposal should be moved to a different area; it shouldn't be located under the rooms; 2. the sports area could use a canopy and ventilation; 3. the food was okay, but the fish and fruit could be improved; 4. poolside cups should be washed and steamed, not just rinsed in water (I received a cup with lipstick on it).

Firstly the positives - the hotel looks very nice, and the rooms are a good size. There were 3 of us in our room, so the setup of a lounge area at the front where our teenager son had his bed, then the bathroom and at the back our bedroom, suited us well. First time I was in a hotel with draws in the bathroom which I found great. The pool is rather small, which wouldn't have been too much of an issue if the animation didn't use up over half of the pool most of the day. The rooms were cleaned daily, but the public areas were often quite dirty. The hotel is very close to beautiful beaches, and a good shopping area. Now the negatives: There are only 2 bars in the hotel - the lobby bar which is only open in the evenings, and the pool bar. The pool bar only serves drinks in recycled cups - which were often either dirty or full of cleaning liquid. In general they tasted strange. To get a cup you had to have a token, so we were constantly searching for our tokens or carrying around dirty cups as we didn't want to stand in line again to exchange the cup for a token. As we were All-inc we really didn't understand/appreciate this constant back and forth. Also as I mentioned only the pool bar was open during the day - so there is no where to have a drink inside or in a proper glass during the day. The food: Horrible. How a hotel manages to bring food out of a kitchen and it be stone cold I don't understand. On the other side of things all meat was so over cooked it was often difficult to tell what it was. The queueing system was set up in a way that it was difficult to see what was on offer, and you had to queue separately for the meat to other things, often with a long wait - resulting in everything on your plate definitely ending up cold. The choice did not vary much in the 10 days we were there, and by the end of the first week we gave up and started eating out at restaurants.

We stayed here for one week and were impressed overall. The rooms were tidy, well kept and clean much like every visible area of the hotel. Food choices were consistent each day although the evening meals had more variety and the drinks of good quality. The heated pool was a real bonus even though it was windy outside the pool being warm made a big difference. If you have children it's very kid friendly and all staff interacted with my son in a positive way which he loved. We didn't use the kids club but The housekeeping and entertainment teams were visibly excellent throughout and I've held back one star for service after a frustrating conversation with one of the service team which was a shame considering how excellent everyone else was throughout.
