Finca De Las Salinas

Not to be confused with the larger Melia resort hotel of a similar name, the family-owned Finca de las Salinas has a great charm for those seeking a more relaxed rural hotel.

Situated in the lovely whitewashed village of Yaiza the Finca is well located for exploring the island, the nearby Puerto del Carmen and the best beaches at Papagayo. A group B hire car from the airport is included in our prices.

This former Manor House of a working Finca, dating from the 18th century, has been tastefully and carefully refurbished to a lovely standard.

Offering just 19 rooms, including 2 suites and one junior suite this Finca has an air of calm and tranquillity. Each of the brightly painted rooms has a full modern bathroom with bathrobes, slippers and hairdryer, safe (small charge), TV, pool towels, air-conditioning/heating and coffee and tea making facilities. All double rooms have a small terrace and most have double beds. The junior suite near the pool is a larger room whilst the 2 suites in the main house have a separate sitting room and views across the front garden towards the countryside and share a pretty terrace. Most rooms are located around the pool area in the former stables.

The Finca has a local classification of “Rural Hotel, 2 palms excellent” and in our opinion for a rural property it is, with its charmingly rustic feel. The Finca serves buffet breakfast on the patio. There is a good choice of restaurants in the local area. A Bodega/bar and a bottle of wine in your room add to guest enjoyment. The free gym, tennis court, games room, sauna and jacuzzi will appeal to those seeking some exercise.

A quieter alternative side to Lanzarote is offered here and we are sure it will prove most successful with our more independent travellers.

Driving time from the airport – approx. 20 mins.
