Chill Review of Buendia Corralejo Nohotel
If you're planning a winter holiday in the Canary Islands, specifically Fuerteventura, you might want to check out Buendia Corralejo Nohotel. It's as the number one apartment complex in Corralejo, this spot has a trendy vibe that screams modern comfort and local flair. I recently stayed there, and while I had some great moments, I also faced a few hiccups worth mentioning as travel bloggers go, I like to keep it real and not show a fake sham travel life!
First Impressions I was greeted with a glass of cava, nice touch! The staff seemed super friendly and eager to help, things started off great!

The Apartment
It had everything I needed—a kitchenette with a microwave, a funky leather coach bed, and a flatscreen TV. The bed was huge and super cozy, perfect for crashing after a day out. But here’s where things got a bit disappointing: I ended up in a corner unit right by the entrance. This meant constant foot traffic, which wasn’t ideal for relaxing. Plus, my terrace was tiny compared to some of the other units. I felt disappointed as I had planned to catch up on some work on my laptop on the terrace during the day, but couldn't due to the constant noise of people coming in and out. I really should have gone for a roof terrace room.
Amenities and Facilities
The pool area is definitely a highlight! It’s well-kept, and the sunbeds are comfy—perfect for soaking up that winter sun. I spent a good amount of time lounging there. The hotel also has a fitness center, which I appreciated for keeping up my legs bums and tums workout routine.
Breakfast was a winner! Fresh, tasty, and made with local ingredients. There’s free parking, high-speed Wi-Fi, and even fun activities like retro board games and they have a surf shop, if you’re feeling adventurous Fueteventura is a great spot for windsurfing!
Service and Reception
Most of the staff were lovely and helpful, but I had a bit of a disagreement with a receptionist. After receiving multiple requests for feedback and reviews via email/booking.com and watts app, I mentioned my disappointment with the room.
One receptionist challenged my feedback, I was told by her that the room was assigned to me based on being a solo traveler, they put me in that room rather than a family, but I didn’t think that was fair since I paid the same rate.
Rather than challenging my feedback at reception, they should have offered a solution. So because of the room and not being able to resolve problems or listen to feedback and a bit unfair towards solo travellers, I wouldn't come back to this hotel. Just make sure you clearly book the specific room type you require.
This is what I thought I had booked.....
This is what I got.
*Third world problems are real!!
What I should have booked, but I think they were sold out of duplex roof top terrace rooms.
The Verdicto
Overall, my time at Buendia Corralejo Nohotel was a mix of good and not-so-great. The modern feel, clean facilities, and mostly friendly staff made it enjoyable, but the room situation left a bit to be desired. If you’re after a trendy spot with great amenities for your winter holiday in Fuerteventura, this place could still work for you. Just make sure to clarify your room preferences when booking to avoid any surprises!
