I have just read on fb comments saying that you have to wear masks all the time. Also that you can't smoke in public in Feurteventura. Can anyone tell me if this is correct. TIA
Hi you two..thanks for posting the nightlife ..looks very sad but better than I expected..just need the 60s bar and the Netcafe to open and then over to the Slap n tickle for a great night on the Karaoke.good to see you both again, and don't forget about our duet Sarah..hope to see you all soon..x
Were home in Scotland now quarentining, it was our first holiday to Fertaventura and your videos helped in our decision to still come. We stayed at Caleta Dorada but ate out most days or nights. It was strange anywhere being so quiet but helped everyone who was there feel safe and keep safe. Hope it continues to open more every day 🙏
I'm glad you enjoyed it Irene. Definitely quiet at the moment but was good to see some of the bars still doing a reasonable trade at night. Things can only get better!
Early 90s we went to the original fish restaurant that now is the spot where La Frasquita restaurant is now. It was then the only building that side of the bay. I believe it may be the same family that run it . They brought the fish to the table the same as you had . So nice to see it busy ! Well done Sarah at the karaoke 👍
Hi Al, it is indeed the same family. They have a long history with Caleta, there is a small statue of one of the family members opposite the Happy Centre just before you get to Ereza Mar hotel 👍
Hi Ladies. The Step Inn was very quiet, it is usually a lot more lively than that, especially later in the evenings. The seafood dinner looked beautiful. Good to see the whites centre open again too. Well done on the entertainment Sarah 😊👍 Have a great week, and stay safe 😉
Thanks Liam, I think in August you'd usually struggle to get a table in Pieros so you can definitely see how its impacting the businesses. Hope you're good, enjoy the rest of the weekend 👍
Good to see a few more people over there, I know some who have had to cancel trips to various parts of Spain and was looking forward to be having the sort of good time that you 2 ladies were enjoying in the video but it made me smile!.
Thanks! It's such a shame for people that can't make it out here. Hopefully we've shown it is still possible to have a good time even with the rules in place. Just need the advice from the UK to change at some point. Thanks for commenting 👍
I've retired in Thailand and wish I had looked at the canaries.been there many times and loved it.i would of loved a quality wine bar with tapas.so clean and tidy.
Thanks again girls for keeping our spirits up and keeping us up to date on what's happening. You looked as if you had a great night in scully's. I remember meeting him a few years ago up in the 70's bar and a great night was had by all. Even more determined to get over on the 15th December. Keep up the good work girls!
@@AmeliaBolger hi Amelia yes it was a great birthday in Crete... One of my best in fact. The night finished off with a beach party with some locals where there was a marriage proposal with the ring brought in by drone. The best part of the holiday was meeting a lovely lady and extending it for four nights to spend more time with her... We're now an item back home and haven't felt so good in years...
Gutted! We would've been there had it not been for the quarantine ruling...So sad to see Caleta so quiet when it's normally bustling. Sincerely hope that the resort survives this. We'll be over next year!
thanks for making this beautiful video that makes me refresh our little town ! 🌞🌞🌞 I m the owner of Kellys and Goose but I couldnt go back since last Dec 😔😔😔
Thanks to you two for posting these vids!! We were booked for Corralejo, initially for 8th July, moved to 15th, then they cancelled our trip 😩. We ended up in Las Americas which although was a nice break, wasn’t quite Fuerteventura. Great to see the Step Inn👍 Keep up the great work!! Thank you so much for all the vids!! You two are keeping us sane😁👍
Thanks! I've never been to Las Americas so no idea how it would compare. I always assume the resorts in Gran Canaria and Tenerife would be bigger and louder? We love the more chilled vibe on Fuerteventura 😎
Another great vlog Amelia, looks like you and Sarah had a lovely evening thanks for taking us with you...Sarah’s singing was a treat too, thumbs up to you both...looks really quiet though, I do hope things start picking up over there soon 🤞🏼👍🏼🎤👍🏼🌞
Brilliant happy vid 🥰 Thanks for taking us along with you to your night out. Its lovely to see you both more relaxed and enjoying yourselves. Personally I'm not a fan of Caleta de fuste as love Corralejo to much . Maybe you could have another night out there for us all and you drive Sarah lol. Brilliant singing Sarah nice to see you both in a different light !. Good joke going to use that one 😆😆😆Stay safe and well .
I think it would be rude not to do a follow up in Corralejo! Definitely Sarah's turn to drive. Great for us to have a good night out, we love giving everyone updates but it's hard to have a laugh on those videos. Life must go on! 😀😎👍
Hi ladies another good video nice to see a few more people there hopefully more Britain will come at end of the month if the lock down as been lifted never tried the fish restaurant but will next time were over take care you two love D&H xxx
Absolutely loved it! Brilliant felt like you had taken me on a night out... just what we all need right now. Brill singing. Looks like you had great fun. Kirsty 😃
Let's all have our fingers crossed for the fco announcement being more positive and by the same token an easing of the masks etc in caleta. Take care both and thankyou for another lovely update. If I arrive it'll be January next year and for the month as I did this year. 😉
Hi Amelia, been enjoying your videos for a while now, very informative as well as interesting. We are coming over on Tuesday for a week, do you know if the market is still open on a Saturday in Caleta? Also, are you aware of any English speaking taxi companies, we are staying in Rosario and our Spanish is embarrassing 😂 Keep up the good work xx
Hi Kev, the markets in Caleta are still closed. There is a craft market open at the zoo on a Sunday morning. The only other markets are at The Campanario centre in Corralejo on Thursday and Sunday mornings. Lajares on a Saturday morning also restarted this week. No English speaking taxi companies I'm afraid, they might speak a little basic English but it's a good idea to have the Google Translate App on hand. Have a great time! 😎
Loved the tour as always... Great to see you both enjoying yourselves in Calleta. I understand rules have changed again with face masks. Look forward to next week. Best wishes xx
That's right Lynn. They now have to worn outside as well as inside, regardless of distance. Exceptions include sunbathing, swimming, individual exercise, whilst sitting in a bar/restaurant to eat or drink and hiking in unpopulated areas.
Hi ladies, after having 6 flights cancelled, we might finally get to Caleta de Fuste to visit our bungalow for 6 weeks flying with Ryanair on Saturday.. Still loving the updates,, and if we see you in town would love to either buy you a drink, or invite you back to ours for a glass of fizz. Stay safe, Jude & Chris from Port Beach .😎🥰
You have put my mind at ease x I will be there on the 1st Sept......Cant wait to get out of the UK The UK Goverment couldnt run a piss up in a Brewery!!!!!!!
Holiday in March (home the daybefore lockdown). Came back in June(first week after lifting restrictions), due back on 29 Aug. Hope they lift the self isolation in Britain or I can't come,work would frown upon it. Fingers crossed. Thanks for another caleta video.
I really hope so Michael but with France and Netherlands added on last week there might be some reluctance to remove Spain just yet. Let's hope things improve in the next week
Step inn is a great bar, we know Yvonne very well that works behind the bar & her partner Pete who owns the new bar across the road called The Spirit near the medical center, you should call in there one evening Pete is a great guy.. known them both for quite a few years now.. he use to own the last bar you was in but was called Bar4 back then... we was hoping to be over there in sep/oct but its not looking good now.. so our next visit will be march next year hopefully.. love your videos keep them coming.. x
Hi ladies. Thanks for the video and your updates. Next time you are there would you be able to go into the Barcelo Thalasso Spa hotel if open ? See how busy is it around the pool etc ? Stay well.
Hi David, sadly they pushed back the reopening until 1st October. With a lot of package holidays cancelled they can accommodate current demand with Barcelo Castillo Beach and Royal Level
Not yet unfortunately. There's a small craft market at the zoo on a Sunday morning but not quite the same. Maybe there might be progress before you come out. If it does reopen I'll try and remember to mention it in a video as I've had a lot of people ask about it 👍
I’m a new subscriber to your channel and I’m really impressed with your detail and content , you both explore the areas on the islands very well . I’ve visited where you are on this video twice in the last three years and think it’s a lovely place. We stayed at the Elba Sarah hotel along the front . We plan to re visit soon , if you get a chance could you please film a little of the hotel just to let us know how it’s looking. Thank you and keep up the great videos .
Thanks Paul! We will be doing another video from Caleta very soon, I'll try and remember to include the area around Elba Sara. The hotel is open but it's unlikely they would allow me to film inside 👍
21st for FCO review, I’m sure Fuerteventura’s numbers of active cases will still be low. We are coming as long as there is a flight. Ryanair is favourite as I’m sure my Jet 2 flight will be cancelled as there are only 46 reserved seats at this time.....can’t see it being financially viable even if quarantine restriction is eased.
At least you've got a plan B lined up. Numbers here remain very low (12 currently) but the overall situation in Spain hasn't really changed so I'm not sure the need to self isolate will change yet. Air Bridges seem to be off the table too, although Germans have now been advised not to travel to Spain but the advice excludes the Canaries 🤷♀️
Amelia Bolger we are all over the place even within what should be a United Kingdom. There’s time for it to change and change again while we are out there. We will be there for 3 weeks. Won’t really affect me the self isolating but son is trying to get a triathlon booked before the end of the season, that’s likely to prove as difficult to commit to and would be a waste of money (and they aren’t cheap to enter) if he had to self isolate.
Thanks Sarah we actually arrived in caleta on the 25th of July before the qaurintne issue and ive kept booking I feel so safe over here we love it we dont want to leave so we now will return home with an extended period on 3rd of September we were only meant to be here 10 days its turned out 5-6 weeks lol it so safe and majority open to keep entertainment going we have car and have been to nearly every suggestion you have mentioned and I must say the all were worth vist espesh caves at ajay but still here 5 weeks later 😀 but to everyone its safer here than uk by far I.e mask restrictions and sanitisation everywhere you cant enter anything without sanitisation and it brilliant 👏 thanks guys xxx
Wow, what an adventure you're having! 😀👍 Brilliant to hear that you're enjoying it and the restrictions aren't stopping you. Glad to hear you liked the caves too 😎
We hope to come and visit Ireland next year, we did look at the possibility of September but with the need to self isolate on arrival its a non-starter just now
Glad you both had a good night. I’m very interested to have a view on la Tahona witch is up in music square. We’ve been going there for the last 5 years and we are very curious as to how the seating arrangement may be
Hopefully the new video will give you a glimpse of La Tahona. We didn’t think it looked any different to how it was before. Plenty of tables outside and not sure they were that far apart from each other to be honest. As it got busier they were putting more tables out to accommodate people drinking and listening to the live music
Hey guys I'd love to know is fuerteventura safe ??? Day and night? Xo and also could you tell me where the most lovely beaches are in a nice town not over run with tourism lol pls and thanks soo much x love from belfast xx stay safe ladies xx
Very safe! Opportunists everywhere though so usual advice of not leaving anything valuable on show in a hire car or doors/windows open in apartments. I would have a look at El Cotillo- it has everything you are looking for! There’s a video on the channel 👍
Hi you two...sadly thing's have taken a turn for the worse since this vlog..and now Scully tells me that masks have to be worn all the time you are in a bar and can only slide it down to have a drink..you even have to keep your mask on to sing on the Karaoke..really really poor..looks like we won't be able to get out there now till this is over or some common sense prevails..keep up the great work though..x
Hi Ian, Unfortunately some of the bar owners in Caleta have a difficult time keeping the local police onside who often interpret the rules any way they wish. I can understand some of them being cautious after being closed for so long. In our experience though the majority of bars and restaurants are allowing customers to remove masks once seated. The extended mask rules were in place across the rest of Spain before here and that was our experience in Sevilla last month too. The rules are due to be reviewed in about 10 days time so hopefully they will find some common sense otherwise experiences like that will certainly put people off.
