Review from a British family
I will start with the positives - Nice rooms, nice pool area. Helpful reception staff. Rooms cleaned very well.
Negatives - breakfast isn’t great very Limited choice especially for children. Pool sunbeds and pool umbrellas have seen better days. No pool bar. No atmosphere within the hotel.
Surrounded area within Costa Calma - Positives - beach is lovely. Can also get a bus into Morro Jable which was lovely. Negatives - mostly very unkept. Lots of dumped rubbish. Pavements broken, drain covers unsafe. Not much to do. A handful of restaurants. Wouldn’t return to this resort or recommend it to anyone. Probably the most boring resort we’ve stayed in.

Could be so much better with a bit of a refurb.
The rooms are a great size with a private patio with sunbeds, 2 double beds which are reasonably comfy settee in the lounge area and a kettle and a coffee maker, it seems wrong that they charge you for a bottle of water and for coffee for the machine, Bathroom again is a good size but seriously needs looking at the mosaic tiles had a patch covered by a bit that didn’t even fit properly Reception staff were great but breakfast staff were generally quite rude. The breakfast was awful, machine juice, cheap bread with no butter only margarine, really not good, you’d be better off going down the road to the shop and getting your own, can’t comment on the pools as didn’t use them at all and hardly anyone else did. There is a funny smell in the bathrooms.
My happy place.
It is our fourth visit to Risco Del Gato as we simply love it here. We have stayed in many Hotels and rentals on the island but we often find ourselves returning to this Hotel. Here’s why.. we love the friendly staff, especially Bernardino on reception who is simply wonderful, so friendly and welcoming. The food is far superior to many of the large hotels which cater to hundreds. Every other evening is a five course sit down meal with a menu for you to choose from and it is always, I mean this, always delicious. Other evenings are often themed with Italian, traditional Spanish and US food style which are served buffet style with a chef cooking fresh food for you. The Hotel is quiet so if you prefer a noisy, music, drinking, hundreds at dinner & breakfast hectic vibe, this isn’t for you. It is peaceful and tranquil and a wonderful space to wind down.

Quirky and peaceful
I enjoy quiet but this may not be for everyone. No music blasting at you at the pool, no organised activities, no noticeable bar ( although drinks are served with dinner if you want them) all very civilised.
This is our second visit which shows how much I like it, I very rarely return to previously visited hotels however much I enjoy my stay. The USP of this place is the layout, each room is totally stand alone, your own tiny villa. No adjoining walls and no corridors, you won’t hear a peep out of your fellow guests once you retire to your room. You also have a little completely private enclosed courtyard of your own with nice high walls. As Fuertoventura is typically windy this is blissful for basking in the sun and is supplied with padded sunbeds. My holiday Nirvana! WiFi is great and there’s an outdoor shower in your courtyard, I could spend a week just sunbathing.
If you do venture out you will be rewarded by a few nice clean ( quiet) pools, very cold but typical of the canaries. A nice little heated indoor swimming pool, a spa and sauna, lovely on less sunny days. A very short walk to the beach if you are a beach person and a hyperdino or a spa for water etc. There’s an efficient fridge in your sitting room, a kettle and a sofa. Two big double beds in the bedroom, a long wardrobe with plenty of hangars and storage and a charming domed bathroom with a shower, bidet and big jacuzzi bath.
The food is very nice! Huge choice at breakfast, an omelette bar, breads, fruits, cheeses, meats etc. surprisingly for Spain the omelette man also does excellent bacon! The evening meals are fabulous, a mix of buffet and sit down waiter service, always lots of choice and very nicely cooked. The Friday night dinner is a festive occasion with a grill and a Spanish guitarist, very pleasant.
Reception are efficient and friendly. From where to hotel is situated it’s an easy ten minute walk to the bus stop to go to Morro Jable market on a Thursday, Morro Jable is a lot more bustling than Costa Calma. We had a great week at this quirky and charming place and may well be back for some winter sun!
