The catch
No beach on foot: Playa de la Guirra is about 35 minutes' walk, so beach days run on the free shuttle, whose beach runs leave in the morning, the last back at 12.35pm

Is Elba Palace Golf Boutique Hotel worth it?
A calm, grown-up golf hotel with the first tee at the door and the airport 16 minutes away, better for rounds than for beach days. Check availability for the golf-view Deluxe. A small, quiet, adults-only hotel in colonial style where the golf course is the holiday and the beach is a shuttle ride away. It suits a week of rounds, the pool and long dinners more than a base for touring the island.

Is El Mirador de Fuerteventura worth it?
A historic former parador on the sand, five minutes from the runway, at about €110 a night. Check availability for the Sea View Double Room. A small, historic former parador on the beach beside the airport, priced as a base rather than a resort. You come for the building, the sea and the location, and spend your days out on the island.

There is no pool. A public beach is within walking distance.
