Holidays in Lanzarote, Canary Islands - apartments, unspecifieds and villas

Costa Teguise was the first real beach resort to be established on Lanzarote and is still a popular choice with UK holidaymakers. Costa Teguise boasts a choice of four sandy beaches a championship standard golf course and even an aquapark for the kids! Costa Teguise provides a good range of high quality accommodation and offers every facility you need to make the most of your holiday on Lanzarote.

Haria is one of the most important villages in Lanzarote set in one of the greenest parts of the island. Haria is located in the valley of a thousand palms and was where Cesar Manrique chose to live his final years. Haria is a great base to explore the north of the island with jewels such as Jameos del Agua, the Mirador del Rio and the wilderness beaches of Famara and the Isle de Graciosa, all within a short drive. Haria also has its own rural market on a Saturday morning although this is a much smaller affair than the market in Teguise.

Playa Blanca is the newest beach resort on Lanzarote set at the most Southerly tip of the island. Playa Blanca is a perfect choice for the whole family; there is a good choice of high quality accommodation to suit all budgets and easy access to several sandy beaches. The centre point of Playa Blanca is the snazzy new Marina Rubicon, Playa Blanca is also the gateway to Fuerteventura which is only a short hop away and a perfect for a day trip.

Puerto Calero is a new and exclusive marina development located 6km down the coast from Puerto del Carmen. The development is low key and low rise and offers a very high standard of accommodation. Puerto Calero has a range of activities and facilities to choose from, with an upmarket choice of bars and restaurants on the marina front including a choice of designer shops. For the more sports minded there is scuba diving, sailing, big game fishing and Puerto Calero even has its own submarine experience!

Puerto del Carmen is the most popular beach resort on Lanzarote (but maybe overtaken soon by Playa Blanca!!) and boasts the best beaches of all the resorts. There is an old part of the town which recalls the original fishing harbour where it all started back in the 1960s… however its growing popularity combined with its relaxed feel has seen the resort grow to become a major family holiday resort. Puerto del Carmen offers a wide range of accommodation and facilities and is well positioned to access the multitude of things to do and see on Lanzarote.

Founded in 1418, Teguise is one of the most beautiful rural towns in Lanzarote and was the islands capital until the mid-nineteenth century. Beautifully restored houses open out onto well-kept cobbled streets giving the town and elegant feeling; Teguise also boasts a beautiful church set in an impressive square. Teguise is most famous now for its Sunday market (10-14.00) where there is a wide range of arts and crafts alongside locally produced food and wine. We can highly recommend a visit to Teguise as a part of your holiday on Lanzarote.
