Picking your Lanzarote base

A lot depends on how you plan to spend your day. If you’re here mostly for beach time and nightlife, Puerto del Carmen or Playa Blanca are good bets. However, if you want to wake up to quiet streets and maybe rent a car to explore the island, I’d recommend looking at options around Teguise or even Macher.

Quick tip: Many properties in Costa Teguise offer exceptional value in spring and autumn when tourist numbers drop. Also, check out Casa Tomarén in Teguise if you want a cozy stay with a local host who’s full of island stories.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about where to stay in Lanzarote? Here are some answers!

If you love easy access to sun and sea, places like Puerto del Carmen or Playa Blanca work great. But staying inland, say around Teguise, means fewer tourists and a more relaxed vibe. I like switching it up depending on my mood.
Absolutely. Lanzarote has loads of affordable apartments and guesthouses, especially outside the high season. Booking a little away from the main hotspots usually gets you better deals.
Yes, many apartments come with kitchens, which is a great way to save money and try cooking with fresh local ingredients from the markets. I’ve done this a lot and it feels more personal than eating out every meal.
Costa Teguise is popular with families because of its safe sandy beaches and quiet neighborhoods. Plus, there are parks and playgrounds nearby. But honestly, Playa Blanca is another solid pick for families who want easy strolls to restaurants.
If you want peace, avoid the big resorts. Villages like Tao or San Bartolomé offer a much calmer feel. You’ll experience real island life and still only be a short drive from the beach.
Pet-friendly places exist but can be limited. If you’re traveling with a dog, check apartments around Playa Honda and ask directly before booking. Some smaller guesthouses are welcoming too.
