Canary's Wintersun All Inclusive
7 nights from just £599pp

Alua Village Fuerteventura
Located on the Jandia peninsula, from this hotel you can marvel at the panoramic views over the Atlantic, and the surrounding landscape's natural splendour. The ocean provides the backdrop for relaxing days spent by the three glistening pools – including one that's set aside for the kids – where you can chill out in the refreshing waters or bask in the sunshine on a lounger.

If you’d rather spend a day on the sand, you’ll find Butihondo Beach just moments away. Here you can surf and swim in the stunning waters. If land sports are more your style, you’ll have plenty to choose from, including volleyball and French boules. And if that sounds too fast paced, look no further than the spa centre – indulge in pampering treatments and enjoy the heated indoor pool, sauna, steam bath, and hot tub.

Feeling peckish? The hotel's international buffet restaurant takes care of mealtimes. Alternatively, treat yourself to an à la carte dinner at Mare Nubium, the Mediterranean eatery here. You'll also find a poolside snack bar for light bites and drinks during the day.

Price based on 2 adults sharing a Twin Room for 7 nights on All Inclusive. Transfers and luggage allowance included.
