"I'm in Calleta de Fuste for a week from 19th of March  "
We have just been looking at calleta de fuste as looking for a villa or a apartment as wanting some outside space or a roof top terrace.
Some where to sunbath naked without having to go to the beach.
Has anyone stayed in the resort just to the south of corralejo? |

Try Biahazul villas. On the outskirts of Corralejo and a bit pricey but you get 2 or 3 bedrooms, private pool, rooftop terrace with bbq and Jacuzzi. Supermarket within walking distance. It's a 30 minute walk into town or 6 Euro by cab. |

"I think the area is called Geafond.
Seems there are some nice villas there just wanting to know if it's within walking distance of corallejo town ? "
Its quite a walk, but short cab ride. Near the 9 hole golf course that has just closed.

"Tried to pm you but blocked
I've not actually paid as yet
But through rentalcars.com only got a quote.
They all seem to be similar prices though."
Best company we have found is "Cicar" the price they quote is for everything including fully comp insurance. Other companies quote low and then you have to pay for their Collision Damage Waver, so be careful when booking. In addition Cicar has a base at airport unlike some others where you have to get a minibus to get to their depot. Hope this helps. |

Yes looked at cicar like I say all around that price
£10 a day for a fiesta and got them to do the insurance excess waiver for £30
And located in the airport so no shuttle Involved.
But I have not booked or ever used them before
If anyone has used them before ????? |

Book through rentalcars from airport, but NOT goldcars, any other.
Say no to extra insurence, and drive safely ...sorted and a bargain

Guessing you have used them?
Yes started out £70 for the car and then £55 for the insurance
Said forget the insurance and they instantly dropped to £100 all in
Still fancy my chances as you say drive safely |

We head to Corralejo on the 19th March for 2 weeks. We used Cicar last time we went to Fuerteventura and found them to be ideal, good all-inclusive price and based at the airport so no waiting for shuttle buses. |

DoYouSpain offers cheapest rental car rates. Goldcar are fine if you don't take their insurance. Instead get excess insurance for 45 pounds a year from worldwideinsure.com |

"Payless cheapest at the moment pick from airport no extras to pay £130 for two weeks in April
Have used before very good cicar usually cheapest but not at the moment "
Cicar and Payless same company, same cars owned by the local Opel dealer Ovrecame, always check both these for best price, they do swop around with prices. |

"We used goldcar and got ripped off with the extra insurance .. always use ecocar in caleta now.. going back last week in april and late sept/oct.."
Always better to not take their ripoff insurance and get your own before you go...usually around £10-£12 for 7 day hire to cover the excess... |

just been looking at paylesscar and its quoting just 80 euro's for a weeks car hire (fiat panda) seems to good to be true. do they need you to take extra insurance out when you pick up the car |

try cabrera medina [same owners as cicar] corsa 7 days 112 euro including full insurance no excess no charge for additional driver all made clear in their legal information. also pay in cash if you prefer not to give them your credit card details
hope this helps |

Not too sure if available on Fuerteventura but we have used PLUSCARS on Lanzarote and Gran Canaria. Always found them excellent value for money, no extras, no fuss, fully insured, the price they quote is the final price they charge and nice people to deal with.
Hopefully, our first visit to the Island later on this year, any advice gratefully received.
Happy to meet couples and singles.
Thanks.
Liz and Paul. xx |

totaly agree with what all have been saying in here ... stay away from goldcar known to rip people off cicar seem good and for those picking up at the airport and travelling north to corralejo they have an office here too .(could save you a trip south if there is a car issue).. most prices i see are with out add cover ... but the way parking is here on the island .. the car check at the end seems a joke ... took out the additional insurance once and havent since ... with the current price of fuel (75 cents a lts of diesel) a cheap hire car is better that a two way taxi ride ...even if you dont use it much .. any other questions feel free to ask i live here  |

We use Cicar each year....never any problems.They sometimes don't have the car you booked but always give you an upgrade or very similar.

sorry is repeating what others have said about car hire on fuerte, but be careful
Cicar, Top car, Payless are all Ok but others are a con when it comes to petrol and insurance the worst being Goldcar by a mile. I have learnt the hard way |

Some of the best beaches in Europe but you will need to travel around the island to find them ..."
Right....lovely golden sand beaches.....I suggest you to rent a car and visit the northen beaches (Corralejo Dunes and Cotillo Lagoons)....and depending on where are you booking a hotel, drive to the South and visit Cofete Beach... |

I would avoid the dunes at corralejo unless you like a fair walk to the sea and a strong undercurrent when you get in..the ate some amazing black sand beaches here with traditional canarian bars by them ..unlike the Blackpool in the sun appeal of corralejo |

Beaches in the north are very nice .. and can only comment on the Diving in and around corralejo but it's very good for the Atlantic water temp at the mo is 18 Degs so no problems in a 5mm |
