Guest comments
A gem of a holiday home. Spacious, comfortable and with all the facilities we could want. Loved the swimming pool – warm, inviting, just perfect for an end of day swim.
This was our first stay in Lajares and we enjoyed the location – just a few minutes from the Lagoons at El Cotillo but also Corralejo. A short stroll into the village for an evening meal. This holiday home would merit discerning Fuerte lovers.
Had a wonderful holiday, the villa is beautiful. The swimming pool was great, overall a very relaxing holiday, quiet and peaceful will definitely recommend to friends and family.
Many thanks for a warm welcome to such a comfortable and well appointed apartment. The heated pool and the quiet location were the deciding factors in our choice of venue. We now know we made the right decisions and would not hesitate to recommend this to like minded couples.
Had a wonderful holiday. Apartment & pool was lovely and so nice to have it all to ourselves. We will be returning soon.
