… well, not ordinary beer and I appreciate that most people who read this really won’t care but as somebody with a serious gluten intolerance running out of Gluten Free Beer was a big deal. Look the staff were lovely; the Guest Services team did their best to resolve the problem along with Isabelle and the other Managers in the Private Lodge restaurant but the bottom line was that I couldn’t get a beer in any of the bars, well the Beach Bar had a couple of bottles which I was charged €6 each for and so did the Premium Bar. My lovely friend in the Premium Bar even went around the whole hotel searching and found 2 more, again €6 each ! Eventually the restaurant ran out too and no I’m not an alcoholic a day later somehow Isabelle managed to get some more delivered for that I am very grateful . Having vacationed at MagicLife Fuerteventura many many times I wasn’t expecting the beer problem. There you are issued with a “GF Token” which you show at any bar or restaurant and they bring you some. They even stocked them up in the help-yourself fridge in the Private Lodge area. Why such a massive difference between two locations within the MagicLife brand I have no idea ♂️ Anyway I realise this will be very boring for most of you but it would stop us returning to Calabria (unless I knew the issue was resolved ?) and obviously I couldn’t recommend it to anyone with Coeliac disease. Otherwise we did have a lovely holiday; the hotel grounds are stunning and the Private Lodge area (effectively a hotel within a hotel) and being adults only was extremely tranquil. We couldn’t recommend the “General Population” for a couples vacation you really do need to book the Lodge. Food and drink generally was okay we only ate outside the Lodge once, just too noisy, so we accepted the smaller selection in the Lodge in exchange for peace and quiet. The Premium Bar was nice, yes you are paying on top having already paid for all inclusive but the service was outstanding and the lovely lady there was able to recommend some reasonably priced white wine that was a massive upgrade on the general wine served on the AI. The Staff here are generally fabulous, the odd grumpy barman but hey it was coming to the end of a long season. Special credit to Guest Services and the Restaurant team in the Lodge who were amazing as was Housekeeping We loved the entertainment; daytime archery with Antonia was great fun and the evening shows and events were excellent; shout out to the “FABULOUS” and talented Marek & Dinah, Serge, Werde, Coco and all, top-notch dancing, singing, acrobatics and more . Who knows if there’s a positive response from Management we may be back next year … ball in your court ! All the best x
