- Studio Helen

Lovely little fishing village, the apartment was quiet, with stunning views all around! It has everything you need. You do need a car but it a small price to pay for such a relaxing peaceful place, where you wake up to the sun with a smile on your face. 15 minute drive to shops and sandy beaches if you want. The owner is lovely as are the people in the village and would stay again in a heartbeat. The owner got back to us promptly and gave very good customer service. The property was clean and as described, even had books, dvds and games stuff, perfect place to unwind

petit studio vu sur mer, soleil le matin bien agréable au petit déjeuner

bien situé dans un village très tranquille

agencement surprenant : cuisinette dans l'entrée, coin lits puis table et canapé

salle de bain vieille et non rénovée : mauvaise odeur, peu d'emplacement pour poser les affaires

propreté moyenne

This is one of those finds that you are reluctant to share with others.

This is peace and quiet as you just have to experience if you lead a busy life everyday!

The apartment is located in a sleepy small fishing village where a walk along the beach, dip in the ocean and drink at the beach side bar are the order of the day.

The apartment is to a good standard and ideal for two people. The complex has a delightful pool - but boy was it cold compared to the ocean!. Entertainment is limited as the satellite TV has a few stations broadcasting news in English. Take a good book or your own DVDs.

Get organised - you need a car as the nearest supermarkets and bakers is a 12km drive away. There are delightful bars, cafes and restaurants with free wifi at Gran Tarajal (12km away)

The hills on either side of the bay are worth exploring - if you can find the start of the paths! (Some Spanish helps here...) I also discovered a wonderful beach walk along white sands and by an incredibly blue and warm ocean. Take the A2 south to milepost 72km and El Paso beach. You can walk miles and see few other people as you walk towards Morro Jable.

It can be breezy too on Fuerteventura so be warned. A most relaxing time and I will be back!

On this wonderful island "Fuerteventura" We have the third. In January 2012, we discovered a village Giniginamar and we immediately fell in love with her, his return we were looking for accommodation in this village. Found studio "Helen" and spent a wonderful 14 days in late November and December 2012. Every morning we enjoyed the sunrise, long breakfast in silence and peace, to swim in the sea (to Adam and Eve), etc.

Studio "Helen" is simply and tastefully furnished with a terrace, from which the entire bay and village at your fingertips (divine view).

We recommend to rent a car and drive through the island, always surprise you with something even if you pass several times. Maybe a couple of times it rains and hills that look dryly, suddenly turn green.

Always we are sorry that we have to go back to winter and cold. Therefore, in 2013 we will visit again Giniginamar.

Giniginamar is the perfect place to stay away from the tourist crowd. The large, diverse but peaceful apartment building with well-kept pool is situated at the end of a an extensive valley, above the tiny fishing-village of Giniginamar. From Studio "Helen“ and across its big terrace, which is south facing and gets the sun from early morning until the afternoon, you have a magnificent view overlooking the bay. The studio is ideal for 1 or 2 people, it has a big bathroom (bathtub), constant warm/hot water, a small kitchen (2 hot plates only), is simple, clean, well-kept, has SAT-TV and a lot of reading material. It is worth its price! A hire car is necessary (available from EURO 18.00 per day), because the apartments are 4 km away from the main road, the FV2, to Morro Jable, although there is a regular bus to the main road from the village. In Gran Tarajal, the second biggest town in Furteventura, 12 km away, a little town almost without tourism, there are - amongst other things - a huge supermarket, a post office, some bakers and the idyll of a fishing harbour. (There is a supermarket also in Tarajalejo, 12 km away). It is 25 km (25 min. by car) to the endless and spectacular beaches (with dunes) of Playa Barca, Costa Calma ... - for example - the hotel "Los Gorriones" with a huge parking area next to the beach. All together - in my opinion (I've been there several times) - very much recommended.
