The Canarian island of Fuerteventura is renowned for its year-round sunshine and tranquil vibe. It’s increasingly being seen as a wellness destination, too. Gran Hotel Atlantis Bahía Real offers a relaxing environment with all the facilities required to keep you rested, happy and healthy.
The ever growing wellness tourism industry is now worth a staggering $639bn globally according to the Association of Travel Agent’s 2019 Travel Trends report. Sunny island paradises are therefore high on the list of top destinations, especially for Brits.
