Villas New Lanzasuites

Stayed for 10 nights recently. This was our 2nd stay and we enjoyed it on the whole. The apartments/villas are small and compact and are well thought out and equipped. We asked for an even numbered one in phase 2 as we knew they get more morning sun on the terrace and were lucky to get number 14. The pool, hot tub and gardens are kept beautifully clean by the maintenance guys as do housekeeping keep the insides. The welcome pack is extensive and useful. The toiletries and loo roll are not automatically replaced - they are considered part of the welcome pack. This is fine if you're staying for a few nights, but does mean you need to buy for longer stays. (I believe housekeeping may have given us more if we'd asked.) Tania on reception is a great addition to the team, very helpful and great knowledge of the island. A pleasant adult only place in PB - quiet, other than the obvious road noise and handy for shops, restaurants etc.

Overall disappointing. The accommodation was basic with poor quality furnishings. The bathroom needs upgrading: mirror worn, shower leaks on to the floor and the hairdrier did not work. To be fair that was replaced quickly with a brand new one with the old one having to be completely removed from the tiles. The workman was helpful. On arrival (Sunday) the kettle did not work and was replaced the day after. This toaster only worked on maximum, burning the toast. That was replaced later in the day but didn't work at all the following day leading to a 3rd one that did work. The towels were fine and changed midweek as was the bed. The curtains in the bedroom were very difficult to move along the rail and would not close properly. It was a nice gesture to have some basic foodstuffs left, especially water and milk. The villa was cleaned daily and staff very friendly. The gardens were also nicely maintained and we were not troubled with noise from the road. The patio furniture was adequate. I must mention that Tania on reception was extremely helpful and friendly and was very efficient in resolving our problems.

Agree with others, underwhelming villas, need updating, close to the noisy road , not worth the price. Also bitten by some kind of bugs & got bad service. They are kept clean every day & have the facilities that you need. Gardens are kept nice.

Had a great week here, lovely staff especially Tania who was just lovely and so helpful. Accommodation had everything and more for a comfortable stay. The pool and grounds are a little oasis to come back to especially if its windy as they are well sheltered from the wind. First time to the Canaries and we loved it. Literally 5 mins walk from Flamingo Beach which is a lovely bay but the sea very cold in February but still managed to swim in it. Had lots of sunshine in our week but there is a cool wind but still need suncream as I burnt one day without it. Evenings are chilly in February you definitely need trousers and a jacket and I even wore boots as well. The promenade is great for walking and cycling, one way to the lighthouse which is about 2 and a half miles away. The only facility for food/drinks though is one cafe which doesn't have public toilets and is expensive for drinks, a large beer was 5.25 Euros where the rest of Playa Blanca beers start at 2 euros up to 3.5 euros. We found meals were more expensive than Greece but the drinks were less, gin and tonic very good value as they pour about 4 or 5 measures in for about 7 euros. On Wednesdays and Saturdays the Marina Rubican has a market on which gets very busy so you can choose either to do this or not. It takes between 30 and 40 mins to walk there depending on your speed. Overall we would return to this accommodation as its well located for everything and everyone was so friendly. Also thank you for my birthday treat much appreciated.

Reading other people’s reviews on here, we were really looking forward to our short break at the Lanzasuites. Unfortunately we were just a little underwhelmed by the place. It wasn’t as fresh and modern and we’d hoped. We received a welcome pack, which was really handy on arrival, however, I’d suggest checking everything first though as our packet of ham was almost a month out of date! We only had a cleaner knock once in our 3 night stay (late afternoon the day before we left), so didn’t get any additional coffees on top of the 2 sachets provided. We also had to buy additional toilet roll. The cart with water and juices other people mentioned was also not out during our stay. The leather sofa in our villa was extremely worn and quite uncomfortable. The bathroom has no extraction and even with window open it never dries fully and leaves a damp smell throughout the villa. We didn’t get any fresh towels during our stay so thankfully we were able to at least dry them outside. There is nowhere to sit and dry your hair and put makeup on in front of a mirror, and as the bathroom mirror is always steamed up after a shower, that isn’t an option. We ran out of hot water twice after a slightly longer shower when washing my hair, which wasn’t ideal. The kitchen had everything you’d need, to the point you have to move everything out of the way to use bench space/plug sockets. I just think for the price we paid we expected a bit more and after previously staying at the adults only section at the Iberostar over the road, we both said we preferred that.

We had an amazing time at the New Lanzasuites- totally relaxing from start to finish. A lovely surprise of the welcome pack with ham,cheese, milk, tea,coffee, beer,pop. Such a lovely comfortable villa , everything you need, great aircon and fans Great private patio area with bbq, and outside shower. The additional beach chairs, parasol and cool box to use which was a great addition . Lovely clean pool and hot tub, and day beds, well kept gardens. Lovely touch of fresh fruit, water and juices by the pool. Supermarkets very close , beach 10m walk and bars/ restaurants 20m away ideal location. Would definitely recommend for a quiet relaxing holiday. We will definitely be back.
