I am staying at the Riu Coralejo in a few weeks and my 1 year old only drinks goats milk for his morning and evening bottle. Does the spar at the top of the road sell this, or a local supermarket?
Trying to avoid taking a box of powder with me as it weighs so much on my luggage allowance. Thanks
I'll try to remember to pop in on Monday when I'm over that way and have a look for you. Best to bring a small amount of dry with you to see you over first 24 hours anyway. If the Spar doesn't have it get a taxi from outside the hotel to Mercadona supermarket where they have litre tetrapaks. To return from Mercadona ask the person on the till to call you a taxi as there is no rank up that end of the town.
Forgot to say, welcome to the forum!

Thank you, I would really appreciate if you do have the chance to drop into the spar and see if they do stock goats milk, as I know the island has plenty of goats! I come every year but its the first time I come with my first child. If no luck then ill travel to the supermarket and hope they will have something.
Many thanks
I know they have cartoned goats milk in the Mercadona in El Mattoral so I imagine there must be one up in Corallejo

Thank you for your reply! That is quite far from where I'm staying but that will help if I do get stuck, or I'll just take the powder with me, but baby prefers the milk already made.
Hello Luisa
Really sorry but I ran out of time today to get to the Spar in question. If no one else has been able to do so and post the outcome I'll try to get there next Mon/Tues.

Hi Tamara
Thank you, if no one gets back to me by next week, if you dont mind I would really appreciate it. My flight is next Saturday. Could you ask the Spar where would be the nearest place from there that would sell semi skimmed goats milk if nothing in there?
Thanks again x
Hi Luisa
Can I just check which hotel you are staying at? I presumed it's the RIU Oliva Beach or the RIU Tres Islas but I've just realised it's a
HiperDino supermarket at the end of that road, not a Spar, so thought I better check with you. Regards.

This is great! Thank you Sam, I will take 24 hours worth of powder with me and then I can stock up on a few of the cartons for a week. Im sure they should have this up the road from the Riu if the others you went into had them. Gives me hope and relief!
If you or Tamara visit the shop, let me know! Please dont go out of your way to check.
Thank you guys, so looking forward to travelling back to my favourite island - 9 days to go!! Xxx
