Think about this. What if you could travel and still have all of the comforts of home? We tried to accomplish that a few years ago by bringing our home with us everywhere we went while we spent the better part of a decade running around in a motorhome.
But that really isn’t quite what we’re talking about. No, we are looking for more than just a place to spend a holiday. We are thinking about a nice, spacious, well appointed home where we can spend a relaxing vacation. That’s why we were so excited to find these Apartments with sea views in Fuerteventura.
Just to be clear, these are not regular hotel rooms, no, these are apartments with magnificent views of the Atlantic Ocean at Buendía Corralejo, Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands. Picture this, your very own duplex or rooftop apartment with a private entrance. Every one is a complete, ready to live in residence that includes your own private terrace, balcony, or solarium, so you can relax, sunbathe, or just hang out and dry off after a day of surfing or swimming at the beach.
At Buendía Corralejo, the apartments and duplexes are specifically designed so that each guest can relax and enjoy their escape at their own pace. The idea is to feel like you are right at home while taking in all of the beauty and fun Fuerteventura has to offer.
We love how the units are all so spacious and airy and come with with a fully equipped kitchen because, believe it or not, there are some days that we prefer to go to the local market and enjoy doing a little home cooking. Of course, all the other amenities that we look for when we are traveling are also at your fingertips, such as fast, free Wi-Fi, a coffee maker, a hairdryer, and even an iron and ironing board.
For us, the apartments with a rooftop terrace are just about the perfect place for a getaway. We can just go up the spiral staircase and bask in the sun and sea breeze without ever leaving our “home away from home.” And should we decide the bring the grand-babies along, the apartments are available with either one or two bedrooms. It is so far above and beyond any typical hotel that we have ever stayed at that we like to call it a No-hotel.
But as great as all of that sounds, that’s not why we travel. We want to see new places and try new experiences, which is perfect because Fuerteventura and the Canary Islands have a ton of fun, interesting, and even challenging things to do.
We’ve been thinking about trying to sharpen our dude skills with some surf lessons. That works out perfectly since Buendía Corralejo is the only No-hotel with surf school in Corralejo. They have absolutely everything that we need, like boards and wet suits ready and waiting at Point Break Watersports. Great, there is no need to pack any of that big, bulky stuff in our luggage.
And if it turns out that we are just not good at surfing, well then we can try out one of the many other exciting activities available, like kitesurfing, paddleboarding, windsurfing, or maybe some yoga classes.
But come to think of it, this a vacation so maybe we should go for a more relaxed option and just take a dip in the pool and grab a bite or a refreshing cocktail from the Waves Food & Drink menu at the pool bar.
Yeah, that sounds pretty great. So good we might just never want to leave our new “home away from home.”
