This is a very nice apartment, well situated for everything, yet private and relaxing. Its well stocked with everything needed including european plug adaptors, hairdryer, etc and all appliances are simple to operate.

Lovely spacious tradional apartment with excelleny self catering facilities. 5 min walk to main restaurants/bars, 10 min walk to beautiful beach and 10 min walk to bus stop on main road. Walled terrace/patio area complete with BBQ was fab. Would be ideal for children as it had a lockable gate.
Booking process was very smooth, communcation was excellent. We were well looked after by Shelagh (property manager).
Thanks for a great holiday would definately stay again!

I first went to Calete de Fuste in April 2004 and have been back every year since (twice last year). We also intend to go back every year for the foreseeable future (whilst we can afford it). Pariso is in a perfect location - five minutes walk from the main hub of restaurants, only 10 minutes walk from the beach and has the added bonus of not actually being situated in a complex so you don't get woken early by happy kids shouting at the pool. That said, there is a few complexes near by that don't mind you using their pool.
Fuerteventura offered us EXACTLY what we wanted in a holiday. Sun, sea, sand and lots of chilling out. Plenty of good restaurants to eat out in and lots to do during the day.
Pariso has it's only private patio and it's a great sun trap, so if we couldn't be bothered moving far, it was the ideal place to sunbath.
The apartment itself is just home from home. My one criticism (if you had to really push me to give one) would have to be that during the hottest periods of the year, the non existance of air conditioning makes it unbearably hot at night. This is actually a criticism of the pubs too - so I would say, if you prefer to cool down at night, don't go during the peak sun times - there is no escaping the heat at these times.
Parisio is a 3 bedroomed apartment with TV, Video and DVD player for your convenience. There is also a good CD player and a mixed collection of CDs which would appeal to just about everyones taste. Some reading material is also there for folks who forgot to bring their own book (I'm just hoping the Pajang Incident is still there as I'm a few more chapters to go!!).
The beaches are breathtaking (even if they are man made) and reassuringly clean. The tours and activities offered from the nearby Exercusions office are good value for money and definitely worth doing.
Overall I found Pariso the PERFECT place to holiday. Quiet location, off complex, yet near enough to everything if you want to live it up a bit.
As a family holiday destination, it's first class and the size of the apartment means you aren't falling over each other (this is a major plus point for me).
If anyone out there is thinking about holidaying in Fuerteventura, check this out - if you go once, I guarantee, like us, you'll want to go back every year.
One point I didn't mention is that when you book Parisio, you are met at the Airport, dropped off at the apartment and then taken back at the end of your stay. First class service which helps get your holiday off to a fantastic start.
I hope this has helped sway anyone that is having doubts about booking this apartment (unless of course you intend to book when we're going back...then I'll do my best to put you off) (joke).

Hi CJ
I have been staying in Villa Paraiso from the 1st until the 15th of august. The house was very comfortable and we spend a very nice time there.
