Planning Your Budget Lanzarote Villas And Apartment Holidays
If they haven't already now is the time that most people will start to plan
their annual vacation and if you are planning to stay in the European region then you have an excellent choice of suitable destinations to choose from for that sun kissed holiday break.The European mainland can be a bit fickle when it comes to the weather although further south in Spain, Greece and Italy the weather is a little more stable, however one area that has an outstanding weather record throughout the year is of course the Canary Islands and in particular Lanzarote.
Combined with the other six Canary Islands in the chain, Lanzarote enjoys an outstanding semi-tropical environment, delivering clement temperatures whatever the season. Thanks to its geographical situation close to the Tropic of Cancer and just off the coast of Africa.
The islands location coupled with exceptionally low levels of rainfall, have created a dry and arid landscape that could be considered desert like in areas, and happens to be essentially devoid of trees and vegetation particularly around the southerly part of the Island.
The scenery here is definitely made even more unique and bizarre by the fact that Lanzarote was rocked by tremendous amounts of volcanic activity some two hundred and fifty years ago. This left large areas of the interior of the island giving the impression of a scene from a science fiction motion picture or indeed a desert planet.
However , away from the volcanic area Lanzarotes beauty could not be more conventional and is in keeping with other holiday islands in the chain, with roughly 100 beach locations spread round the coastline coupled with 3 modern and well developed holiday vacation resorts for travelers to enjoy. These also happen to be the place to find the bulk of the best Lanzarote villas and holiday accommodation.
The small Canary Island of Lanzarote offers extremely good value for money for anyone searching for a villa break on a tight budget (which includes many families given the current climate), as it gives you an exceptional choice of privately owned rental accommodation which is most often available at prices that are a good deal cheaper than on other Spanish holiday islands.
Puerto del Carmen is without doubt the islands main resort being ideally located close to the only airport at Arrecife and blessed with an abundance of golden sand beaches.
Combine that with extremely good nightlife and in addition a large collection of cafes and restaurants it's not hard to see why. Holiday villas in Puerto del Carmen start at approximately 500 each week and all feature high quality facilities like for example private pools and jacuzzis, broadband connections and of course not forgetting the ever popular satellite TV.
Second when it comes to visitor numbers to Puerto del Carmen, Playa Blanca is generally the islands fastest expanding vacation destination, and has extended enormously (although carefully) considering that very first hotels and villas were built here during the 1990s. The resort is becoming a byword for good value holiday accommodation - offering a selection of well priced apartments rentals and villas. For instance, the majority of villas in Playa Blanca could possibly be rented from as low as 400 each week - depending on the month or time of year of course.
Other popular resorts include Costa Teguise which is the most northerly resort on the island and is only a pleasant 15 taxi or coach ride from the main airport and not forgetting the islands newest luxury resort of Puerto Calero which is unashamedly targeted to the exclusive end of the holiday market with an excellent range of boutiques. And of course as would be expected from a resort of this stature an impressive 400 plus berth marina if you are fortunate enough to be able to travel here on your own private motor or sailing yacht.
Lanzarote can be enjoyed as a holiday destination at any time of the year. But some months are better than others with the most unreliable weather usually experienced during February and March, although the climate is still mild even then.
