All tourist establishments will have to close within seven days

Notices have gone up in a range of languages to inform any remaining guests of the hotel closures.

The English version:

While I appreciate that this is a necessary and positive measure, how the hell is this going to be managed?

We got a notice from our community saying that all touristic VV and V rentals were cancelled unless they had a contract pre-dating March 14th. What happens when the 26th comes and there are people who haven't been able to get flights back and can't even get an Air BnB?

I think when/if it gets to that point the government will have to step in & take over enough beds to house all that are left in a central location so easier to staff/maintain.
Relatively easy to take over a hotel or two depending on the numbers. I am sure they already have the powers if required

Likely. I would not like to be in that position and have no control over where you're staying. 

God help them, my heart really goes out to them.

The problem I see is sticking everybody in a crowded hotel and potentially feeding them is like creating a land based cruise ship.

There is now an official list of hotels/apartments that can stay open in Spain to cater for people that cannot return to their homeland.

There are 3 establishments on Fuerteventura:

1. Hotel Tamasite in Puerto del Rosario
2. Caleta Dorada apartments in Caleta de Fuste
3. Fuertesol Apartments in Caleta de Fuste

The two in Caleta are the little chalet-style self-catering ones, I think? So that should avoid the issue of group meals increasing infection, etc.

Smart choice.

Yeah, we have stayed in Dorada before, limited kitchens but you could get by

Not so sure about Hotel Tamasite as a choice though. I looked at booking a room for a night there once and I'm pretty sure they are just bedroom/bathroom, no kitchen facilities and no café/restaurant on site - makes it a bit difficult to self cater in these times. I think some rooms had balconies, others just windows, pretty claustrophobic when you can't go for a walk.
