Lanzarote Hotel Guide - 5 star hotels in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote

From initial check-in to checkout found all staff to be very professional and attentive. Interior of hotel was very attractively designed and decorated (especially main hotel foyer and piano bar area). I stayed in suite room (block C 5th floor) comprising of large lounge area and bathroom and more than adequate bedroom size. I had a balcony with view over pool and side view of sea (only negative here was palm tree in front of balcony partially obscuring my view) The hotel was ideally situated with a nice small beach directly opposite the hotel and an approximate 15 min walk in either direction would lead to the marina or the port area (for access to ferry to Fuerteventura) and many shops/eating places available on the way. I stayed at the hotel on a B & B basis only so can only comment on hotel breakfasts. Breakfasts were buffet style with numerous choices of food to suit all tastes and could be taken in 4 different areas (one was pre-bookable with a 3 euro surcharge per person). The hotel had 2 main pools and I used the larger seawater one. I always managed to get a sun lounger around the pool as I was by myself but it could be tricky and frequently towels were reserved on sun loungers for hours on end without people using them (british holiday makers were as guilty as other nationalities of doing this). I enjoyed hotel entertainment in 4 lunas bar and in the piano bar and also visited bars outside the hotel. Overall the hotel is a good choice for a pampering luxury break.

The hotel service, setting, cleanliness and breakfast were all very good. Although it is quite a large hotel there was never any feeling of being over crowded.
