Lanzarote is the most distinctive of the Canary Islands — a place where dramatic volcanic scenery meets sophisticated design and understated elegance. At the finest luxury hotels, you can expect attentive round-the-clock service, generous suite proportions and views that frame the Atlantic in soft morning light. Standards here are uncompromising: heated infinity pools, considered wellness concepts and cuisine that champions local produce alongside the island's mineral-rich wines. Whether you favour a secluded adults-only retreat by the sea, an iconic address in town with a rooftop bar, or a family-friendly all-inclusive resort in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote delivers a thoroughly refined experience where every detail has been carefully considered.

Our Selection Criteria
Ratings and standards
We focus on five-star properties with consistently strong guest reviews — typically scoring 9.0 or above on leading booking platforms — and a proven track record of quality over time. The overall finish matters enormously: room standards, bed comfort, noise levels, Wi-Fi reliability, housekeeping and turndown routines all factor into our assessment.
Distinctive advantages
We look for hotels that offer something genuinely special: frontline sea positions, heated infinity pools, suites with private jacuzzis, award-winning or critically acclaimed restaurants, well-regarded spas, rooftop bars or other experiences that set them clearly apart within the region.
Location and access
We consider proximity to the beach, marina, restaurants and transport links, as well as the overall feel of the setting — seclusion for couples, or easy access to the promenade and local attractions for families. A short transfer from the airport and straightforward parking or valet service are welcome bonuses.
Frequently Asked Questions
It depends very much on what you're after. Playa Blanca suits those seeking classic resort life with easy beach access; Puerto del Carmen offers a livelier atmosphere with a long seafront promenade; Puerto Calero appeals for its calm marina setting and boutique feel; while Arrecife has an urban character and sits closest to the airport.
For the most popular luxury hotels, booking three to six months in advance is advisable to secure availability. Add an extra month or two if you're planning to travel over Christmas and New Year or during peak school holidays.
Several five-star resorts offer family suites with additional bedrooms, children's clubs, dedicated paddling pools and family-friendly dining that works well for all ages.
Exceptionally good, on the whole. The best hotels work closely with the island's culinary scene, making excellent use of local produce and offering thoughtfully curated wine lists.
Prices vary according to the hotel, time of year and room type. A night at a quality five-star property generally starts at around €150–€250, while premium suites with a private pool or panoramic views can cost considerably more. Expect prices to rise during high season — July and August, and the Christmas and New Year period in particular.
