Black volcanic slopes, whitewashed villages and roads that disappear towards distant horizons give Lanzarote a look and feel unlike any other island in Europe.
Lanzarote offers a holiday experience that feels completely distinct from the rest of the Canary Islands. Shaped by volcanic eruptions and protected from overdevelopment, the island combines extraordinary scenery, stylish resorts and a sense of place that remains remarkably intact. It is a destination that feels both dramatic and unexpectedly refined.
Across the island, lava fields, volcanic craters and striking coastal formations create landscapes that seem closer to another planet than a typical beach destination. Yet alongside this rugged beauty sit elegant marinas, whitewashed towns and a collection of restaurants, hotels and attractions that make exploring a genuine pleasure.
Days might be spent discovering the Timanfaya National Park, enjoying lunch overlooking the ocean, visiting César Manrique's remarkable creations or relaxing beside the sea before another spectacular sunset. Combined with year-round sunshine, excellent hotels and an atmosphere that feels calmer and more sophisticated than many resort destinations, Lanzarote delivers a holiday that stays in the memory long after returning home.
Moments of discovery often become the most memorable part of any journey, whether found through an exceptional hotel, a remarkable landscape or an experience that reveals a destination in a new light. The places that stay with us longest are those that create a genuine sense of connection.
Across islands, coastlines, mountains and vibrant cities, every destination offers its own character and rhythm. Some invite adventure, others encourage slower exploration, but the most rewarding journeys are often those that combine comfort, authenticity and a sense of place.
From luxury hotels and boutique retreats to safari experiences, rail journeys and small-ship voyages, our collection celebrates travel that feels considered, inspiring and memorable long after returning home.
César Lanzarote Luxury Boutique Hotel, an adults-only five-star retreat in La Asomada, captivates with its bold homage to César Manrique, transforming his family's former home into a polished fusion of volcanic modernism and Lanzarote's untamed natural beauty. The 20 rooms unfold with serene elegance, featuring air-conditioned comfort, flat-screen TVs, fridges, minibars, coffee machines, safety deposit boxes, and sleek bathrooms with showers, hairdryers, and premium toiletries. Most rooms boast terraces or interior courtyards brimming with plants, offering views of the ocean or volcanic peaks. Virginia Nieto's design weaves lava stone, wood finishes, and a white-brown-green palette, creating tranquil havens where attentive staff ensure thoughtful touches, from plush linens to warm welcomes, fostering a sense of belonging amid the island's rugged allure. Dining at the restaurant, led by chef Zebenzui Ferrera, celebrates Lanzarote's seafood with dishes like John Dory paired with Canarian red mojo sauce, crafted from local ingredients and soon-to-be estate-grown olive oil. A daily buffet, continental, or vegetarian breakfast brims with fresh island specialties, savoured in a setting that echoes Manrique's vision. The bar crafts cocktails amid vine-draped surroundings. Guests can immerse in curated experiences, from cycling through volcanic landscapes to strolling among vineyards and pineapple plantations, capturing Lanzarote's wild rhythm with effortless grace. Nestled a short journey from Lanzarote Golf Resort, Rancho Texas Park, Montañas de Fuego Mountains, and Lanzarote Airport, César Lanzarote offers seamless access to the island's treasures. An outdoor pool shaped like a lake, surrounded by stone-divided sunloungers, a fitness centre, terrace, bike and car hire, and a 24-hour front desk elevate the experience, ensuring serene renewal in a haven of art and nature.
