Where will holidaymakers find the best selection of holiday villas in Lanzarote?  The island’s southern most resort of Playa Blanca offers the best microclimate on the island, fabulous beaches, top quality restaurants and a wide range of top end holiday accommodation.

Playa Blanca may be Lanzarote´s newest resort – but it has rapidly evolved over the last decade, transforming what was once a small fishing village into the second largest destination on the island.  Quadrupling the town’s population in the process.

Playa Blanca is basically formed from three small coves that are set within one larger sheltered bay.  Growing rapidly from the village grouped around the central beach of Playa Blanca which still lies at its core. To today etxend from Papagayo in the east through to Faro de Pechiguera in the west.

This rapid expansion can be largely attributed to the fact that Playa Blanca enjoys the best weather Lanzarote has to offer.  Delivering higher temperatures and more sunshine hours per day than the rival resorts of Puerto del Carmen and Costa Teguise to the north.  Which were developed a decade or so earlier during the 1970´s and 80´s.  Factors which are obviously of paramount importance for anyone planning to spend their holidays in Lanzarote.

In addition Playa Blanca boasts some of the best beaches on the island – such as the breathtaking set of coves and bays at Papagayo.  Which are widely regarded as some of the most beautiful stretches of sand in Spain.  As well as enjoying an enviable location just 8km across the Bocaina Straits from the neighbouring island of Fuerteventura.  Providing an atmospheric backdrop, especially come nightfall.  When the lights across the water twinkle like diamonds.

As Playa Blanca was developed later than the other resorts planners were able to learn from the evolution of the islands other resorts.  Placing luxury holiday villas right at the core of the blueprint.  And over the last ten years or so many of these villas have been snapped up by British and Irish investors, keen to secure their very own slice of the Lanzarote property market.

As a result tourists are presented with a wide choice of villas in Playa Blanca at competitive prices.  For example, a standard two bedroom villa with private pool can be rented for as little as £295 per week.  Whilst at the other end of the market large luxury properties accommodating larger parties of up to twelve people are available from around £900 per week.
