Fuerteventura Origo Mare Resort

I can't really fault this hotel, I would ignore the bad reviews, as myself and sons were here for a week and it was great, I chose all inclusive, there was a lovely selection of food to suit everyone, cocktails and alcohol included, the waterpark was lovely, loved relaxing on the loungers in beautiful sunshine. The villa was nice however the sofa bed my sons shared wasn't very comfortable, so they gave them an extra mattress topper, air con in the main room was brilliant. U do need to hire a car as its very remote and 26 miles from the airport. I hired a car and went to some stunning beaches.

Great stay, good site, very clean. Accommodation great, staff very good, food is nice, Pizzas where great. Supermarket was a little overpriced but not extortionate. Pools and slides are very good, life guards who actually pay attention give you great piece of mind. A nice family friendly resort with some wonderful staff.

Throughout our stay at Origo Mare, our air conditioning unit leaked nightly basically flooding our room - reception staff insisted it had been fixed daily but this wasn’t the case. Alternative rooms were not offered. I have to say, rather disappointing stay compared to others here. The place seems to be rather run down, not well managed, despite the price point. All walkways and road networks around the ‘resort’ are crumbling causing tripping hazards. Most of the smaller pools amongst the ‘villas’ are closed and empty, the only open one has large holes at the bottom and sharp edges. Most of the chairs and sun loungers (indoor and outdoor) are broken, if you’re over the age of 10 then you’d likely fall through half of them. The bathrooms flood after every shower, our shower in particular had a broken shower head so water just sprays everywhere. Most of the public toilet facilities are either broken or disgustingly dirty. Origo Mare, I have already submitted a formal complaint via my travel agent and have requested a partial refund for the absolute unliveable conditions we had to stay in. (A flooded and uncleaned room!!!) I wouldn’t stay here again.
