A popular tourist resort since the 1970s, Costa Teguise is famed for its golden beaches and plethora of activities on both land and sea. On Lanzarote’s eastern coast and just 20 minutes from the airport, it’s easily accessible and a perfect destination for a summer holiday or some relaxed winter sun. Accommodation options are wide-ranging; our list of the best places to stay in Costa Teguise includes the very first five-star resort on the island.

Life in Costa Teguise centres around the beach, perfect for swimming, sunbathing and water sports. Playa de las Cucharas is a particular favourite for water sports, whilst Playa de los Charcos is a dream windsurfing spot. Little Playa del Jablillo, by contrast, is a peaceful haven beloved by tranquil couples. Stroll from beach to beach along the seafront, popping into cafés, bars and superb seafood eateries.

Admire the designs of César Manrique, a Lanzarote-born artist and sculptor, amongst the shops and restaurants of charming Pueblo Marinero, or tour the beautiful gardens of the iconic Paradisus Salinas Lanzarote, which he also helped to create. One of the best places to stay in Costa Teguise, this hugely romantic resort is also open to visitors, and not to be missed!

The Best Places to Stay in Costa Teguise

For a Beach Break

• Barcelo Teguise Beach is a cool and contemporary adults-only beach hotel. Chic rooms and suites have expansive ocean views and minimalist interiors with crisp white linens and pops of blue and orange. Gather at the buzzy bar or restaurant after unwinding at the spa or honing your wind surfing skills on the water.
• Paradisus Salinas Lanzarote was the island's first five star resort, with lush gardens designed by Lanzarote's most famous son, César Manrique. Following an extensive refurbishment, it now offers swish rooms and suites with all the mod-cons. Garden villas are particularly romantic, with sunken bathtubs and four poster beds. Luxurious and grown-up.

TRAVEL INFORMATION

• It's wonderful to explore Lanzarote with the freedom of your own transport. Contact our online partner Rentalcars if you would like to hire a car.
• Expect warm summers, with temperatures hovering around 25°C between June and August. For fewer crowds and cooler weather, travel in April, May or late September, when there's still plenty of sunshine — though the sea will definitely be colder at these times!
