The Most Beautiful Family Hotels in Northern Fuerteventura
Our favorite area for staying overnight on Fuerteventura is the north. It’s considerably quieter here, and large hotel chains are rare.
The north is perfect for your family if you want to do lots of activities on Fuerteventura. It’s also ideal for trying out surfing on Fuerteventura.
Staying at a family hotel is always a great idea when traveling with kids. Here are our top five picks for family hotels in northern Fuerteventura.
Pierre & Vacances Resort
- Kids’ club: Children’s and youth clubs for ages 4 to 17
- Travel time from airport: about 40 minutes
- Bed types for kids: twin beds or sofa bed, crib available on request
- Meal plan: kitchen, breakfast, or half board
- Pool: 6 pools, including a children’s pool and water park
Probably the most affordable family hotel on Fuerteventura with slides is the Pierre & Vacances Resort. Depending on when you visit Fuerteventura, you can get an apartment for two kids starting at just 90 euros per night — seriously great value.
The standout feature is the 5,000-square-meter water park. Complete with a wave pool, slides, a climbing wall, and a huge fun zone for kids.
The property offers studios and villas with one or two bedrooms, all with a fully equipped kitchen. You can also add breakfast or half board.
The one downside for many guests is the location — the hotel is essentially in the middle of nowhere. You’ll need a rental car for restaurants, activities, or sightseeing.
Buendía Corralejo Nohotel
- Kids’ club: childcare for toddlers, no kids’ club
- Travel time from airport: about 35 minutes
- Bed types for kids: bunk beds, crib available on request
- Meal plan: self-catering or breakfast
- Pool: one heated pool & children’s pool
At first glance, the Buendía Corralejo Nohotel looks like a fairly low-key family-friendly hotel on Fuerteventura. But we can tell you it’s incredibly popular with young families — and for good reason.
The modern, stylish apartments are a big part of the appeal. Most have two bedrooms, which is ideal for families who value privacy and space.
Kids also love the heated pool and the games room with pool table. Meanwhile, parents can unwind with Pilates and yoga classes.
We’d also highly recommend the Buendía for its location. Corralejo is our favorite spot on Fuerteventura — great restaurants, and everything moves at a more relaxed pace.

Shambhala Fuerteventura
- Travel time from airport: about 25 minutes
- Bed types for kids: sofa bed, crib available on request
- Meal plan: self-catering or breakfast
- Pool: one pool, heated in winter
- Kids’ club: no childcare
Do you care about stylish design on your family vacation? Then we’d recommend the Shambhala Fuerteventura — it’s one of our 8 favorite boutique hotels on Fuerteventura.
You’ll stay in a spacious apartment with a large open-plan kitchen and living area — decorated in a modern boho style with natural materials and neutral tones.
The Shambhala isn’t a classic family resort with entertainment programs. It’s more of a retreat for small families, with a lovely pool and thoughtful touches like cribs and children’s menus.
There are also great coworking spaces on-site — making it a fantastic option for digital nomads traveling with family. You will need a car for sightseeing, though.
Hotel Arena Beach
- Kids’ club: kids’ club for ages 4 to 12 & children’s entertainment
- Travel time from airport: about 35 minutes
- Bed types for kids: sofa bed, crib available on request
- Meal plan: all-inclusive
- Pool: 2 outdoor pools, one children’s pool with water slide
If you want a stress-free all-inclusive stay with the comfort of your own apartment, the Hotel Arena Beach is hard to beat — and it’s in a great spot in Corralejo.
For the little ones, there are plenty of play areas, a separate children’s pool with a water slide, and a solid kids’ club. For parents, there’s a small wellness area to escape to.
The apartments are bright and modern with fully equipped kitchens, though all-inclusive is always included — so you really can just relax. And the food is genuinely good!
Hotel Arena Beach is only a 10-minute walk from the beach. Corralejo is also, in our opinion, one of the best bases for exploring the top attractions on Fuerteventura.
Barceló Corralejo Sands
- Kids’ club: children’s and youth clubs for ages 4 to 16
- Travel time from airport: about 35 minutes
- Bed types for kids: sofa beds, crib available on request
- Meal plan: breakfast, half board, or all-inclusive
- Pool: lap pool, children’s pool with water slide
The Barceló Corralejo Sands is, in our opinion, one of the best hotels in Corralejo — and one of the top family-friendly hotels on Fuerteventura overall.
There’s a children’s pool with a water slide in pirate design, a playground, a mini disco, and a kids’ club. Kids can do crafts, children’s yoga, or go on a treasure hunt.
Family rooms are spacious and stylish, most with a living area and sofa bed. We especially recommend the suites if you’re traveling with younger children.
The Barceló Corralejo Sands sits right in the heart of Corralejo, surrounded by great restaurants. But the food at the hotel itself is really good too — and for a worry-free stay, all-inclusive is absolutely worth it.
The Best Hotel for Kids in Fuerteventura's Interior
We’re not the biggest fans of hotels in the island’s interior. But for families in particular, it has one real advantage: you’re very close to the airport.
In Caleta de Fuste, the largest resort town in the interior, we’ve picked out one of the best family hotels on Fuerteventura for you.
Barceló Fuerteventura Mar
- Kids’ club: kids’ club for ages 4 to 12
- Travel time from airport: about 10 minutes
- Bed types for kids: sofa beds, cribs available on request
- Meal plan: breakfast, half board, or all-inclusive
- Pool: 2 outdoor pools, children’s pool with water slide
Looking for a place with a packed entertainment program where every family member truly gets their money’s worth? The Barceló Fuerteventura Mar delivers exactly that.
For the kids, there’s not only a dedicated shallow children’s pool, but also the Barcy Club — a seriously cool kids’ club with creative workshops and games, inspired by the Happy Minds concept.
For the rest of the family, the hotel runs a varied daily program with mini golf, tennis, ping pong, beach volleyball, and a theater with live shows.
You can recharge in your modern and comfortable rooms or in one of the two large pools. We’d recommend going half board or all-inclusive.
