Choosing the Right Lanzarote Resort

 

The popular holiday island of Lanzarote in the Canaries is home to three main resorts.  As well as the emerging marina of Puerto Calero – where visitors will find two upmarket hotels and an abundance of expensive yachts and craft from around the world.

Each of these destinations offers something different – boasting their own unique character and identity.  Whilst also offering a wide range of accommodation options encompassing everything from Lanzarote villas through to budget studio apartments.

So lets investigate a selection of resort desinations that offer a superb range of Lanzarote apartments.

Puerto del Carmen

Formerly known as La Tiñosa Puerto del Carmen emerged to become Lanzarote´s leading resort during the package holiday boom years of the 1970´s.  And is still the most popular destination on the island today.The resort boasts a large number of apartment complexes – reflecting its position as the best spot for a booking a budget holiday.  But there are also plenty of decent hotels and villas in Puerto del Carmen for rent too.

The island government has recently spent over €16 million sprucing up Carmen’s image in order to maintain its competiveness against newer destinations around the world.  So there’s never been a better time to visit.

Holiday Villas In Costa Teguise

Situated towards the northern end of the island Costa Teguise is just a short hop away from Arrecife airport.  And started life as Lanzarote´s upmarket resort.  Designed to attract moneyed Scandinavian and German tourists during the early boom years of the 1970´s.

However its sheen has faded a little since then.  Partly due to the development of Playa Blanca in the south of the island.  Which has snatched the slot of number 2 destination away over recent years.  However Costa Teguise remains an attractive holiday hot spot – boasting wide avenues and a spacious open plan feel.  Whilst the resort is also home to some great beaches, such as the main stretch of sand at Playa Cucharas.

Playa Blanca

Last but not least Playa Blanca was developed during the 1990´s and offers a winning combination of great weather and fantastic beaches.  Allied with an excellent selection of hotels and holiday villas.

The resort is dominated by a sea front promenade that unites the three main beaches of Playa Dorada, Playa Flamingo and Playa Blanca (from which the resort takes its name).  Whilst the striking set of bays and coves of Papagayo are around a twenty minute walk from the town centre.
