optimizing rest & recovery

Location:
Ecorelax Fuerteventura  is located in a quiet rural area only 15 minutes away from the dunes and beaches of Corralejo, and is ideal for relaxation and enjoying the concept of ecological and peaceful accommodation, with traditional Canarian architecture and outside of overcrowded urban centers. Thanks to the solar panels most of the villa’s electricity consumption comes from the sun and all the water consumed is used to irrigate the garden, for which the villa also uses rainwater.  The eco villa is fortunate to have unique views of the east coast of Lanzarote, the Natural Park Isla de Lobos, piteras plantations and volcanoes. 

 

  • Natural area of 4000 m2

  • 5 suites + common areas

  • Beach pool with waterfall

  • Autochthonous garden of Malpais

​

Fuerteventura is all about nature in its purest state, volcanic landscapes, beautiful beaches of turquoise water and golden, white or black sand. It is known for its protected spaces and light and sun all year round, the island of eternal spring. Fuerteventura’s Starlight Reserve is famous for the quality of its night sky, ideal for stargazing. A paradise declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
