Lanzarote boasts year-round sunshine, a wide choice of regional flight departures from the UK, fascinating landscapes and a warm welcome – add to that charming fishing villages, markets packed with delicious locally-grown produce and a thriving restaurant scene and you have the perfect destination for a villa holiday.
Our villas range in size from two to three bedrooms and each has a private pool, barbecue and spacious living areas inside and out.
Villa Tara is in the heart of Porto Calero, an atmospheric marina with superb restaurants, shops, bars and a smattering of glamorous yachts! Relax in and around the pool (heated November to April) before meandering down to the port – and the regular ferry service to Puerto del Carmen. Villa Tara sleeps up to six.
Casa Antonio is a charming two-bedroom Canarian-style house, a short walk from the pretty village and restaurants of Guatiza. We love the character and location, just three kms from the north east coast and its wonderful coves. The pool is heated from 1 October to 31 May.
You can see the island of La Graciosa in the distance from Villa La Acequia, chosen not least for its seclusion and close proximity to the traditional village of Tinajo. There’s even a gym if you’re feeling energetic.
