Beach House Lanzarote holiday reviews (31)

6th February 2012 by paddlin joe (STAYED IN JANUARY 2012)

“A really fantastic place to stay, close to all you need to make the stay pleasant for all age groups. We went on a famiy holiday, so the whole spectrum of ages and abilities.
Very spacious, great facilities,although it could do with a little TLC in places, Pillows and small beds are a little poor, plus the family shower just needs some attention, tin foil to block leaks and lots of mould, but this adds to the character. Just wait until you see the veiw.
I would definately recommend this place and i know my freinds are looking to book again, so will i if i have the chance. Oh finally, the service and response from Linda, was super speedy, efficient and very flexible and accomodating . Great Place..”

“Just returned from the Beach House following a stay of 3 wks, the house is lovely and the location and views are fantastic we even saw the Dolphins which was a great experience, we had a great time and would visit again.”

“Had a fantastic week at the beach house. Comfortable accommodation and very clean. Child friendly (a must with an 1 yr old !) - no internal stairs and balcony well fenced off from steps to beach. The sea views are out of this world and nothing beats literally having the beach on your doorstep . Our girls loved it, and there were plenty of buckets and spades provided for the daily rock pool hunt ! We had a car, but hardly used it all week - just a few steps up onto the strip - lovely little Italian cafe behind the house kept us well supplied with fresh baked pain au chocolat and ice cream - thank you Linda”

“What a find! A lovely property right on the beach, yet the shops and restaurants are only a few yards away. The master bedroom has a huge Spanish double bed and you can lie in bed and see and hear the sea through the patio doors. Lovely modern kitchen. We had an excellent stay in early December with mild but windy weather. Its worth hiring a car to see the sights on the island and the owner of the Beach House gave us some excellent tips on where to go and what to see. A week is not long enough. Will definitely book next year.”

“Had a truly amazing couple of weeks staying at the Beach House, its location is superb for great family beach holidays. We some times had the 'stones throw away' beach to ourselves and it has great waves for children to hone their 'surfing' skills plus very easy snorkelling permits you a splendid display of fish. There are great bars and restaurants within easy walking distance, the newly opened 'Bollywood' indian restaurant certainly somewhere to visit, and all child friendly. The house even fully loaded with adults & children copes admirably and yes there is one master bedroom that outshines but all rooms are comfortable and provide all that's needed. We're already looking at dates when we can head back!!”

“Again, another brilliant stay at the Beach House. A week is just not long enough!
Owner and domestic staff very helpful and available if needed.
Right, off to book next years stay!!”

“The Beach house is perfectly located. We have always gone for out of the way, quiet villas but this is ideally situated on the beach behind the main street of Puerto del Carmen meaning you don't need a car, you're 10 minutes from the airport and everything is on your doorstep - excellent places to eat and drink with the Spa Supermarket nearly opposite selling everything you will need. Hidden away, you can sleep with only the sound of the sea - fabulous. Yes you could pick fault - it's a little tires in places but I wouldn't hesitate to return to this magical place. We loved it!!”

“We stayed at the beach house 12th to the 19th March 2011 great place great holiday booking again for next year”

“Just returned from a short break at The Beach House whilst attending a wedding on the island.
Fantastic place right on the beach,everything you could ask for ; Thoroughly enjoyed by all of us, great bars and restaurants minutes away, planning on returning again in January”

5th March 2011 by Sue, Cornwall (STAYED IN FEBRUARY 2011)

“We stayed at the beach house for 5 nights from 20th March 2011.
The location is absolutely stunning. A beautiful position right on the beach' at the quieter end of Puerto del Carmen. The terrace is great for chilling out , either reading,watching the wildlife, enjoying breakfast or a sundowner, etc, lovely. The BBQ is also fantastic. However, the comfort of the seating could be improved by providing cushions for the chairs and sunbeds. Beach towels would have also been appreciated.
It felt at £500 for 6 nights accomodation for 2 people, it was poor to only supply 1 bath and hand towel per person.

The kitchen is lovely and spacious and relatively, well equipped.

The master bedroom is blissful with a very comfortable HUGE super kingsize bed and the en-suite bathroom is lovely. You can listen to the sound of the sea as you drift off to sleep safe, in the knowledge that the windows have fly screens. Fortunately, there were just 2 of us, so no difficult decisions deciding who gets the master bedroom .The other bedrooms were nowhere near as pleasant and the main bathroom could do with a little tlc and updating.
A previous review mentioned the standard and cleanliness of the wardrobes. I agree they could be cleaner and would also benefit from a littlle maintenance.The drawer fronts are loose and the door into the ensuite sticks.

A welcome folder with information on the house would be useful. (Kevin and his wife were very helpful).

The Beach House, the name is self explanatory. If you want 5 star luxury accomodation and comfort, it probably isn't for you. However, if you want a stunning beachside location in a quirky original house you will love it.”

“My family and I have just returned from a week at the Beach House. Had great weather and we were all really taken with the place. Fantastic location and amazing views. Makes you feel so spoilt having a cuppa on the terrace and it feels like you have your own beach too!
Near to plenty of shops, bars and good restaurants without experiencing any noise.

Beach House is very clean and spacious both inside and out. The studio was also spacious and listening to the ocean at night really helps you to relax and helps you sleep!

We are looking at returning again next year and have recommended the Beach House to others.
The owner (Linda) was very helpful and always available via email to answer any questions regarding our stay.”

“4th time staying and plan to return again next year. Had another great holiday. The house is amazing.”

25th September 2010 by Lyn, Winchester (STAYED IN SEPTEMBER 2010)

“Excellent holiday in an excellent location overlooking the ocean but near the restaurants/bars etc. Ideal holiday for all age ranges. Planning to return next year.”

8th July 2010 by Keith, Northants (STAYED IN MAY 2010)

“2nd year in a row here - beautifully located roomy villa with immediate doorstep quiet beach - the rear veranda area seaview is now the screensaver on my computer - highly recommended.”

19th June 2010 by neil, leicester (STAYED IN JUNE 2010)

“just returned from a fabulous week at this lovely villa.we were a party of eight and the villa comfortably accomodated us .stunning views day and night , bedrooms all big enough for adults,
the master bedroom stunning, ideally located villa just a few steps to main avienda, kitchen facilities excellent, loads of bars and resturants on your doorstep all in all we had great week and would have no hesitation in rebooking.”

25th April 2010 by the Walton's (STAYED IN APRIL 2010)

“This villa is everything and more you'd expect it to be. We were there for a week in April and were due to fly home on volcano day, the owners (thanks again Mr and Mrs Crossley) had no hesitation in letting us stay there another week for a minimal charge. The whole place in fabulous, out on the front patio we saw the whales and dolphins while having a cuppa, absolute bliss. Just out the back is the main street in puerto del carmen. We were'nt bothered by noise yet were so close to everything, the little beach is great and we spent hours swimming and snorkelling. Inside the villa is amazing , furnished to a very high standard but comfortable at the same time. The en suite of the main bedroom is in the wardrobe my family were amazed. We will definately be visiting again.”

“We are booking our next holiday here! We booked the house for the size as we are two families with 6 kids between us 2 under 5 years old. The beach is on the doorstep the kids LOVED IT! They were off at the crack of dawn fishing and catching things from the rock pools (Could have done with a nature guide as we had no clue about what they were bringing to show us), swimming snorkelling (loads of pretty fish) and digging. We could keep an eye on them from the balcony and call them up for lunch and applications of sun cream, The weather was not great for our entire stay but, The kids did not care and we had amazing views day and night, beats being stuck in a hotel room or looking at a pool. The bars and restaurants and super markets are very close. Very Relaxing holiday and we miss sleeping with the sound of the sea.”

17th March 2010 by Eddy (STAYED IN FEBRUARY 2010)

“Stayed for 10 days in late Feb 2010 (week before the weather was poor but we had great sunshine). Very spacious - albeit that there were only 4 in our party. The kitchen is very well laid out and we had several nights in with BBQ's / salads - plus plenty of wine. Sitting there chatting, drinking and listening to the waves break - ah, bliss - already booked to go back in Nov. Bars and restaurants all very local but villa itself very quiet.”

2nd March 2010 by DrRees (STAYED IN DECEMBER 2009)

“We are a group of 10 doctors from london who stayed at the beach house for the first time in December 09 and are just in the process of booking our next holiday there again. The view over the sea as you walk through the the front room is spectacular and in our opinion by far the best on the island. The house is perfect for large groups, and we all had to fight over the main bedroom! We enjoyed cooking in the very well sized kitchen and loved the use of the back patio area to enjoy our evening meal but not before we made use of the patio at the front to enjoy our sundown cocktails! The dolphins visited us on the second to last evening which was a total thrill, and the weather was divine. Cant wait to go back.”

“bedrooms need a good clean and wardrobes in very bad repair!!!!!”

Owner's response: I'm so sorry, what can I say except to pass on your comments to our cleaners, the bad weather probably didnt help either. It's a unique house, yours is the first complaint in over 3 years. I am naturally disappointed you had nothing possitive to say about your stay.

9th January 2010 by Lesley, Chelmsford (STAYED IN NOVEMBER 2009)

“We have stayed here several times in November with our family our oldest member is 98 and our youngest is 21 although ideal for a young family as well. Excellent beach location, patio overlooks the sea (wonderful and secluded) and your minutes away from the restuarants and bars.”

19th October 2009 by Brendan (STAYED IN OCTOBER 2009)

“Excellent place to stay. Everything on your door step, excellent restaurants & bars, yet the balcony which looks onto the sea is secluded. All you can see is sand, sea and boats and of course sun. Recomend the use of the bbq and a fine glass of wine to watch the sunset. The sunrise is not bad either.”

19th October 2009 by Trish (STAYED IN SEPTEMBER 2009)

“Great place, visited a few weeks back, loved the location,plenty of room in the villa,enjoyed every single minute,look forward to returning very soon.”

19th October 2009 by Trish (STAYED IN SEPTEMBER 2009)

“Had a great time,villa lovely, clean, very ,very convenient to all amenities, right on the beach - what more can you ask for? Very spacious accommodation and will certainly be using again.”

“Going back for a third time this year & looking forward to it. Trust me, you will love this property.”

7th August 2009 by Ali O'D (STAYED IN JUNE 2009)

“Returned late in June from a holiday neither me, nor my friends will ever forget.

I chose the villa because of the lovely pictures displayed, and of the location. When we arrived the pictures came to life. The location is perfect! From the villa, the beach is literally down a staircase, a mere 10 second walk. From the front of the house, the main promenade is a 30 second walk. With all this in mind, the villa is still quiet and tucked away. Perfect location!

All rooms are clean and well furnished and the layout of the villa is great! We found the bbq and the 'al fresco' dining area particularly useful. Beautiful views over the sea from the balcony. Main bedroom has a great bed and on-suite!

This Villa definitely made our stay here something special, a perfect holiday with the perfect villa.”

“Great Location, and amazing property.”

29th July 2009 by Jack O'Conner (STAYED IN APRIL 2008)

“FAB!!!!!!!

Me and the whole Family had a smashing time - with 12 beds on the beach you cant really find this location anywhere in the world for that price...

Great bar near by - and lovely sea air... nothing to see but the sea...

I will be back ! !”

Owner's response: Anyone reading this review must take note the house does not sleep 12, but glad a good time was had by all!

29th July 2009 by Joe Oleson (STAYED IN AUGUST 2008)

“What a place - !!!! Thanks Linda for an amazing time !

Swimming in the crystal blue sea every day made my holiday... silence and tranquility..

Teenage kids loved it also, with the large house, kitchen and BBQ. And the close proximity to the clubs bars and restaurants meant that the whole week we were there we were only ever 10m from the sea, but the silence and peace was the best thing for me. Wine- Book- Jazz - Sunsets, relaxation.... ahhhhhhhhhh

The views were spectacular, and the rocky cove and the large sandy beach were super for the kids to jump around on. 100% happy.

ps I loved the back court yard and the artwork - many fun nights on the cune wine was had there.”

29th July 2009 by Mandy Beck (STAYED IN JULY 2007)

“This is one of the most special locations i have ever stayed in in my entire life;.... such a find ! !
I was initialy dubious about staying on the sea front due to sound and people - but this house is silent bliss...

With the gentle breeze coming in off the sea and the rustlin of the palm leafs - breaking waves on the rocks only 5 m away - and the great vantage point to watch the kids from made this such a relaxing holiday.

You really dont find places like this anymore... The fact that the kids were swiming in the sea rather than a swiming pool was brilliant. the salt made my sons skin perfect after having bad exema it was all gone. and none of them had ear infections which usualy happend when we saty in hotels with pools. Snorkeling with the fish, and boats sailing past, the the amazing views to fuertaventura made our time here simply unforgetable.... Cant rate this place enough 5*

dont tell everyone though !!!

I have booked my summer family holiday here since then - wish i found it sooner...”

“Just a quick note to say what a loveley time we all had at the villa, it was such a great location as we could walk everywhere with the short walk down to the beach and the wonderful views brilliant.”
