Finde Hotels in Tinajo

We spent two weeks at Casa de Hilario in Feb/March. The house is a traditional rural house outside the village of Yaiza in the centre of Lanzarote. Our bedroom was large and comfortable with views to the village and one of the many small volcanic peaks. Breakfasts were buffet style and self service, with tables indoors and outdoors on the large garden terrace. The food was fresh and the service from Lucia was excellent. The house was unstaffed in the afternoons and evenings and there was no bar or coffee facilities, which we missed. The guests all learned to stock up on snacks and drinks in the local supermarket. There is a good, traditional restaurant (Bodega de Santiago) next door for those who don't want to travel too far to eat, though our favourite restaurant was the nearby, sister property Casona de Yaiza which was excellent (we ate there four times). A good base for travelling around the island and will suit those who seek peace and tranquility in a lovely village. Not so good for those seeking a lively nightlife.

What a find! This modern, spacious and well equipped two-storey villa has 5 bedrooms and is a world of luxury. A 20-25 minute walk from the airport along a safe dual use cycle path / footpath, you don't need a taxi or a bus. We booked Magma Rooms for the first 2 nights of a 7 day visit, as was arriving late 10pm+ from the UK. A second night at Magma was good to explore nearby restaurants and visit the beach in the day. What can I say about the room? It had everything you needed from free-to-use safe, flat screen TV, power shower, hairdryer, fan, extra pillows and blankets. In the shared facilities there is a Nespresso machine and mini bar fridge (pay via honesty box) as well as wine glasses, bottle opener etc. They have thought of everything! After check-out we then walked back to the airport to catch the # 161 bus to Puerto del Carmen (1.40€ each).

We stayed here for a week, and had a great holiday. Hotel is immaculate the grounds are very well maintained, rooms were spotless, pools are clean and restaurant was kept to a high standard of cleanliness. Our children (7 and 5) had a fantastic week, they went to the kids club a few times and really enjoyed it, they went to the mini disco each night at 8.15pm and enjoyed the evening entertainment. My only small criticism is that they have a kids dance at 10.30 AFTER the evening entertainment, which is quite late, I feel this would be better done before the evening show begins at 9.30pm, as there is a lull between the mini disco and show, so plenty of time to do the dance at 9pm. Food was tasty, always a good selection. We are vegetarian, and generally always found enough to eat. Chefs were very helpful at advising what was veggie and what wasn't if it wasn't clear. Drinks on AI were fine, decent selection. Perfect location for us, close to airport so short transfer time, and nice quiet resort, but still a good selection of shops and cafes nearby, but without the bustle of Puerto Del Carmen (which is a 40 minute walk away) One small gripe was the check in time, we arrived just after 3pm, approx 7 or 8 people in front of us and took well over an hour. Staff super friendly and helpful, but just took far too long, and queue behind us had around 10 waiting, so those poor people would have been waiting ages! Other than that, would recommend. Thank you!

I can highly recommend this clean and comfortable hotel within a short walk of the centre of Yaiza. It is worth paying the supplement for an upgraded room as it is very enjoyable to sit on your own balcony in the evening to relax and read a book or to have a drink. The hotel restaurant is, in my opinion, the best in Yaiza with excellent food and very attentive staff. The very appetising hotel buffet style breakfast is served in the courtyard and it provides a wide range of breads, pastries, cereals, fresh fruit, cheese, teas and coffees. A thoroughly enjoyable stay.
