The Experience

These stylish, characterful casitas with private terraces and a heated pool are just the ticket for those needing a spot of rest and recuperation. Sunbathing by the sparkling pool can be done in privacy on wooden loungers behind semicircles of zocos stone, cascading bougainvillea and dazzlingly whitewashed walls. Both casitas are light and bright indoors, with splashes of colour from floor rugs; lamps are handmade by the owner.

Inviting bedrooms have large sliding glass doors, leading out to private terraces with comfortable seating and occasional tables (Luna has its own jacuzzi too). Well-equipped kitchens make holiday cooking easy and you’re left a thoughtful hamper of local treats, including Lanzarote wine and homemade marmalade.

You’re just a short stroll from the peaceful village of Guatiza which has a shop, an interesting church and three restaurants. The iconic Jardín de Cactus is less than a quarter of an hour’s walk.

Location

The neighbourhood

An absolute must to visit the cactus garden – it's amazing! There are also some wonderful walks, spectacular underground caves and a stunning volcanic concert auditorium at Jameos del Agua. Cool off in natural pools, or head to the beach at the nearby coastal village of Punta Mujeres, just a ten-minute drive. The walking trail through Volcán de la Corona is just minutes away.

Local points of interest from Darek

  • César Manrique's Legacy: Jardín de Cactus, Jameos del Agua, Mirador del Río and Cueva de los Verdes are all within easy reach, revealing César Manrique's extraordinary vision and the harmony between art, architecture and the volcanic landscape.
  • Walking the North: Walk Camino de los Gracioseros, stroll the coastal path from Jameos del Agua to Punta Mujeres, stop at Mirador de Haría and Mirador del Risco for unforgettable views over Famara cliffs and La Graciosa.
  • Authentic Flavours: From the village teleclubs of Tahiche, El Mojón and Famara to Lanzarote's best paella at La Nasa in Arrieta, lunch on La Garita beach at La Playa and exceptional meat at Mirador de Los Valles.
  • Swimming Like a Local: Discover the natural pools of Punta Mujeres before driving past Jameos del Agua to Punta del Palo, Caletón Blanco, Playa de Las Canteras and the hidden coves around Órzola, where crystal-clear Atlantic waters reward every stop.
  • La Graciosa Escape: Catch the morning ferry from Órzola, hire a bike and explore one of Europe's last car-free islands. Empty beaches, volcanic trails, turquoise water and long seafood lunches make it an unforgettable day out.
  • Slow Evenings: Experience Noches de Jameos on Friday evenings, enjoy concerts at Cueva de los Verdes and discover that Lanzarote's most spectacular sunsets are often found inland, where volcanic landscapes glow long after the sun has disappeared.

Introducing

Darek

Derek, originally from Poland, moved here with his partner some years ago. They are very much locals now, and love the island and its people. They live next door and are on hand if you need any advice, but will leave you to enjoy your holiday in peace. You'll see some of Derek's clever homemade lamps in your casita.
