Get Active
For the can’t-keep-sat-still amongst you whilst in Fuerteventura, get ready to dive into the hotel’s wide range of sports and activities. Keep it simple with things like free football or basketball, or unleash your on holiday adventurous side and book onto a class such as windsurfing or scuba diving. The choices are really endless!
Unwind
If holidaying for you is about kicking back, then the Occidental Jandia Mar hotel was practically made for you. Why not drop the little ones off at the kids’ club and hit the U-Spa wellness area? Inspired by Morocco and the Far East, opt for a relaxing treatment in one of the seven treatment rooms or indulge with a much needed soak in a bubbling hot tub. There is also a wide range of massages available. Opt for an anti-stress session or test out the Fuerteventura experience as you’re delicately exfoliated with volcanic lava, then gently massaged with volcanic stones. Truly Canarian!
For those wanting to keep the buffet bulge at bay, the U-Spa also has a fitness suite, offering a range of gym equipment, including cardio machines, free weights, climbing rope and much more. Finish off your work out by easing your muscles in the sauna.
Kids' Club
Going away and dropping your little angels off at the onsite children’s club isn’t selfish, it’s some much needed escapism for both you and them. Supervised throughout the day by the club’s entertainers for your own peace of mind, kids get the chance to socialise with others their own age and experience new games and activities. All inspired by the theory of seven multiple intelligences, it’s a great way to occupy their pretty little minds whilst they also develop and learn.
Where's The Bar
Whether you’re looking for a cheeky poolside cocktail or extra special glass of wine to toast away another sunset, there are several bars cleverly located around the hotel for your added convenience. Keep it waterside with the Higuera snack bar and Aloe pool bar, or head indoors to the El Mirador Lobby Bar. If you can’t sink a glass of red and pop some peanuts on holiday, when can you?!
