Paradisus Fuerteventura Debuts on the Shores of Sotavento Beach

The luxury all-inclusive resort in the Canary Islands is shaped by culture and coastline

Words by: Stephanie Chen • Photos courtesy of Paradisus Fuerteventura

Now open on Sotavento Beach in Fuerteventura (one of Spain’s Canary Islands), Paradisus Fuerteventura ushers in a new era of luxury hospitality within a UNESCO biosphere reserve.

The property from Meliá Hotels International is the first high-end, all-inclusive hotel on the island, and offers a blend of cultural experiences and immersive wellness.

Nature as a guide

Guided by the brand’s wellness-forward philosophy, the 361-room retreat draws from the island’s volcanic terrain and coastal dunes. Soft, organic forms and natural materials anchor the interiors to the dramatic setting.

Ocean-view suites showcase regional artwork and handcrafted touches, while saltwater and freshwater pools are set among lush tropical gardens.

Dining and wellness at Paradisus Fuerteventura

Seven restaurants span casual and elevated fare, with MAHOS—helmed by acclaimed chef Germán Ortega—offering an adults-only tasting menu that celebrates local ingredients and sustainable techniques.

Wellness takes multiple forms at the resort. Families are invited to bond through shared activities like MINI Zumba and kids’ yoga, while adults can unwind with oceanfront meditation, sound healing rituals, and spa treatments rooted in the region’s elements. For more adventurous pursuits, windsurfing, kitesurfing, and volcano treks await, alongside workshops in aloe vera, Canarian cheese tastings, and sunset concerts with local artists and DJs.

Home to the René Egli by Meliá watersports center, the property also experiences a unique tidal phenomenon that forms a calm lagoon, ideal for water-based activities and family swimming.

Beyond the guest experience, Paradisus Fuerteventura underscores Meliá’s long-term investment in the island, supporting a circular economy through local sourcing, inclusive hiring, and cultural programming.

Paradisus Fuerteventura will soon be joined by ZEL Fuerteventura, the island’s inaugural lifestyle hotel.
