Las Marismas Apartments & Baku Waterpark in Corralejo, Fuerteventura, Canary Islands

Las Marismas Apartments & Baku Waterpark details

“With two swimming pools and easy access to local beaches, Las Marismas is all set up for family breaks.”

This place is designed to look like a Canarian village. Think whitewashed buildings and volcanic rock gardens planted with cacti and palms. Location-wise, there’s a waterpark right opposite and Corralejo harbour and beach are a 15-minute walk away. Plus, the complex lays on a courtesy bus to the bigger stretches of sand just outside of town.

The pools are set in the heart of the grounds. There are two, and they’re separated by a shaded pool bar. Cushioned sunloungers and cream parasols line the terraces, along with palm and olive trees. And nearby, you’ll find a kids’ pool, plus a minigolf course that weaves its way around cacti gardens.

As for the apartments themselves, they’re fairly big, with teak furniture and peach and yellow soft-furnishings. You get a good-sized balcony or terrace, too, with tables and chairs for dining outside. On the subject of food, apartments also come with kitchenettes.

If you don’t want to go down the self-catering route, though, there are plenty of options. The main restaurant lays on Continental spreads at breakfast, with omelettes and pancakes cooked to order. At dinner, expect roasts, fresh fish and salads. There’s also a poolside restaurant serving up Spanish and international favourites at lunch. Lastly, you’ve got two bars to choose from. Make your way to Las Marismas for pre-dinner cocktails and nightcaps. Or head for the Salon Bar if you like some entertainment with your drinks. It has regular evening shows and live music, plus mini-discos for the kids.
