Reception was clean and staff were friendly, though check-in could have been more thorough — a physical map would’ve been helpful.
Food was typical all-inclusive: decent but often bland and overcooked. Breakfast sausages could be improved. Soft drinks were good, but machine-made cocktails tasted overly sweet. There was a noticeable upsell at times, which felt a bit off-putting.
The hotel is secluded with beautiful views and little nearby in terms of restaurants or bars — perfect for a quiet break. The beach is a short walk away, gorgeous and peaceful, with two nice beach bars. The walk back uphill with a buggy was manageable but steep.
We used the local transport bus to visit shops about 20–25 minutes away — very cheap (€2.80 for two adults and a baby), though there are no pavements to reach the stop. There’s also a supermarket about 5-10 minutes away with good prices and baby items, unlike the hotel shop which was very expensive (€14 for nappies).
Our room was clean and well maintained, a bit dated and not very sleek looking.
Staff were lovely, especially Sara who was absolutely lovely and an asset to the team!! also a fair-haired male member of the entertainment team who made a real effort to include us despite most activities being in French. Entertainment was largely French-speaking, but we enjoyed the magic show and karaoke. Overall, the staff were fantastic and made our little boy feel very welcome.

We stayed at Alua Village Fuerteventura and overall had a really good experience. The service throughout our stay was friendly and helpful. Although the hotel is predominantly catered towards French guests, the entertainment team also translated activities and shows into English, which we appreciated.
The food was good, with a different theme each day, although some dishes stayed the same throughout the week. We did try to book the à la carte restaurant but unfortunately there was no availability during our stay.
At the time we visited, only one pool was open and the other was empty, but the open pool was lovely and refreshing. Some music around the pool area would have made the atmosphere even better. The only downside for us was that the outdoor drinks hut stayed closed for the entire week. It would have been really convenient to have it open, especially as it would save having to go inside where there were sometimes queues at the bar.
There’s also a lovely beach nearby, and we’d definitely recommend visiting Caretta Beach Bar, which is about a 15-minute walk away. Great location for relaxing by the sea.

Location is best enjoyed with access to a hire car if you want to see more than the hotel and nearby beach.
Rooms are a little tired in decor (particularly bathrooms) but otherwise clean and tidy and the water is hot. Room service is efficient.
Food options are a little limited but this seems to be a smaller resort than some others we have visited. All inclusive food is always a little "same-same" wherever you go but othwrwise its fine.
Indoor pool, suna, steam room, gym, basketball court and outdoor areas are all very good facilities.
My only personal disapointment is no kettle in the room or access to milk after breakfast for me tea. But not the end of the world. i bought some in the hotel shop to keep in the in-room fridge.
I would recommend the hotel to anybody planning to visit

I love Alua Village so much I have been 5 times. The location is ideal with the most beautiful beach that I enjoy walking along twice daily. Always have my club and find it worth the extra, even as non-drinker. The hotel is kept spotless with room cleaned to good standards on a daily basis. The food is very good and I have absolutely no complains. The gym could be better but does the job whilst being on holiday. Rooms are nice although some need updated. I am sure I will be back again.

The room is very nice, providing towels, tea cups, teabags, a mini fridge, a water boiler, a TV, a landline, a stand to dry towels and other amenities. Some of the buildings on the grounds have cracks. There's an exposed cable here and there, but overall things are decently kept.
The place has quite some "wildlife" intruding, the least assertive of them cats roaming the areal, which I regard positively, though I know not everyone would. Sparrow, pigeons and egrets stalk Terra's terrace, and are a bit bolder than some guests are comfortable with.
The pools outside are not heated and the ones inside are heated mildly. Still, the whirlpool whirls, which is nice. The steam room isn't particularly steamy.
The free WiFi is a bit of a joke as it's very slow.
The wait- and barstaff has been friendly and accommodating, even though at times plates filled with food and just plain fruits have been "cleaned" off our table while just grabbing a drink. It's unfortunately hard to fault the wait staff for that, since I had to observe other guests leaving full plates behind frequently.
The food is a mixed bag.
Speaking for Terra: The range of available foods is commendable, with some fresh vegetables, Cold cuts, cheese, pasta, pizza, grilled fish, rice, polenta or risotto, hotdogs, burgers, meat, potatoes, cooked vegetables, sweets, ice cream, joghurt, fresh fruits, canned fruit, and bread. For drinks there's a variety of sodas, wines and water. For breakfast there's also eggs, bacon, sausages, croissants, toast, oats, juices, milk and more.
The actual quality was a bit subpar though. Most cooked vegetables were preserved (frozen), which impacted quality, but is understandable considering volume and logistics. The meats were unfortunately often dry just as the fish, the bacon is soggy instead of crispy, the rice is often a bit undercooked, the risotto dry, the wines somewhat sour and I could go on.
Enyesque, the other restaurant mostly not included in all-inclusive, on the other hand was a very positive experience. The portions were modest but the quality was good. Including the house wine.
The beach is a small walk away but the distance is manageable for anyone with working legs. The sand is nice and great for burying a buddy for fun.
