For sporty types, there really is nowhere better to holiday than Playitas Resort. You’ll find it on Fuerteventura’s south-east coast, in a super-sunny spot. So when you’re not busy burning calories and working up a sweat, you can enjoy some well-needed downtime and soak up the rays. 

Plus, these balmy conditions allow the hotel to hold their exercise classes outside all year round, with average temperatures about 20-25 degrees and less than 200mm of rainfall each year. Sounds good to us! 

Whether it’s a family trip and you’ve got mini sports stars in tow or you’re heading away as a couple, group of friends or even solo, there’s something for everyone.  

From its outdoor Olympic-sized 50m swimming pool to the 18-hole golf course on-site, this property’s list of amazing facilities is nothing short of spectacular. Other highlights include the 700 m² gym, WOD Box, paddle tennis, pickleball, tennis courts and a water sports and diving centre. 

Grab those goggles or lace up those trainers, and get ready for an active holiday like no other...
