A New Era for Robinson Club Jandía Playa: The Premier Adults-Only Resort Reopens
After nearly a year of extensive renovations, the iconic Robinson Club Jandía Playa, part of the renowned TUI Group, has officially reopened its doors to guests as an Adults-Only hotel. This celebrated resort holds a special place in history, as it was the first hotel established in the Morro Jable area of southern Fuerteventura and the very first under the Robinson brand. Initially launched in 1970, the resort is now welcoming visitors once again, commemorating its 50-year legacy following an impressive investment of around €20 million.
Luxurious Accommodations and Amenities
The revamped Robinson Club Jandía Playa boasts 140 rooms, including 26 luxury suites, placing a strong emphasis on attracting high-income travelers. The accommodations are thoughtfully arranged within a striking ten-story tower that stands 40 meters tall, offering stunning views and modern amenities to enhance the guest experience. Each room is designed to provide maximum comfort and relaxation, setting a standard that appeals to discerning vacationers looking for upscale resort experiences.
Celebrating the Grand Reopening
The reopening festivities, held on a Tuesday, were nothing short of spectacular, attended by nearly 450 invited guests. The atmosphere reflected the excitement surrounding this new chapter for the hotel, culminating in an official welcoming of the first guests on Thursday. Sebastian Ebel, the TUI Group’s Head of Hotels & Resorts, emphasized the significance of this reopening, stating, “With the renovation of our first Robinson Club worldwide, we continue this successful story in Fuerteventura, setting new standards in the premium club segment and taking our brand development further.”
Extensive Renovation Process
To revitalize the resort, TUI undertook a comprehensive renovation process that spanned eleven months. Although the exact details of the investment have not been wholly confirmed, local media reports suggest that approximately €20 million went into modernizing the facilities. Guests can expect a mix of cutting-edge design and classic charm that illustrates the rich history of the Robinson brand while catering to contemporary tastes.
Future Expansions for Robinson
The Robinson brand, known for its premium offerings, currently features 23 resorts across 12 countries, focusing on both luxurious adult-only experiences and family-friendly accommodations. Excitingly, the brand has ambitious plans for expansion in the coming years. Notably, the Robinson Club Cabo Verde on Sal Island will launch in winter 2019-20 as another Adults-Only destination tailored for water sports enthusiasts. Additionally, the Robinson Club Ierapetra is set to open in 2020 in Crete, Greece, welcoming various types of guests.
TUI’s Expansive Reach in Spain
The TUI Group’s extensive portfolio includes 380 of its own hotels, with 94 located in Spain, and 36 of those in the Canary Islands alone. This solid presence signifies TUI’s commitment to providing diverse and enriching vacation options, aligning with their growth strategy within popular tourist destinations.
The reopening of Robinson Club Jandía Playa marks not just the return of a beloved vacation spot, but a promise of luxury, leisure, and adventure for travelers seeking a getaway in one of Spain’s most beautiful islands.
