The project, located in Costa Teguise, will open its doors in 2027 and foresees an estimated net profitability of 6.5% —with units available from €315,000—, in addition to use and enjoyment benefits for owners through the Kora Rewards loyalty program.
Holiday destinations are undergoing a transformation marked by the search for higher quality, more sustainable, and more connected experiences with the environment. More and more travelers prioritize enclaves capable of combining climate, nature, well-being, and services in complexes designed to enjoy these locations in a more experiential and flexible way. In this context, Lanzarote has consolidated itself as one of the most attractive and balanced tourist points of interest in Southern Europe. The island has nearly 4,800 hours of sunshine per year and 191 kilometers of coast open to the Atlantic, a unique natural environment that combines beaches, protected landscapes, and an architectural and cultural identity deeply linked to the territory.
Added to this is solid international connectivity: 81 airports from 17 countries operate direct flights to Lanzarote, reinforcing its capacity to attract international tourism throughout the year. According to the Lanzarote Tourism Federation (FTL), during the first quarter of 2026, the island received nearly 938,000 tourists, 2.5% more than in the same period of the previous year. Moderate growth that confirms the destination's solidity without altering the territorial balance that Lanzarote has been defending for years. In fact, in 2025 the island registered the most contained tourist increase in the Canary Islands —1.4% compared to 2024, according to the Canary Islands Institute of Statistics (ISTAC)—, consolidating a strategy that prioritizes visitor quality, sustainability, and environmental protection.
Resort living to experience holiday destinations
In Costa Teguise, one of the island's main tourist enclaves, Kategora is developing Kora Maresía, a new complex located on the front line of Lanzarote's eastern coast that reinterprets the concept of holiday accommodation with a proposal focused on well-being, design, and landscape integration. The project, integrated into the ‘Beach’ line of Kora Living —Kategora's hotel brand—, is designed to offer a premium resort experience open to the Atlantic and adapted to the new demands of international tourism.
«The current traveler seeks more than just accommodation. They seek to experience the destination authentically, to feel part of it, and to enjoy spaces that allow them to combine rest, well-being, and a different way of connecting with the place,» explains Agustín Orcasitas, Chief Commercial Officer of Kategora. «Kora Maresía perfectly reflects this market evolution and our way of understanding vacation complexes: sustainable projects, integrated into the environment, and designed to generate long-term value,» he adds.
Kora Maresía will feature 144 apartments distributed across nine different typologies, with one, two, and three bedrooms and surfaces reaching up to 266 m², including spacious private terraces open to the Atlantic Ocean. Additionally, it will have 12,700 m² of common areas conceived as multipurpose spaces where various activities will be carried out to foster interaction among guests, with three outdoor pools, over 8,500 m² of gardens, wellness areas, coworking, a gastronomic zone, and a gourmet market with zero-kilometer products, among others.
The proposal responds to a new generation of tourist complexes where design, experience, and professionalized operation coexist with an active international demand throughout the year. Kora Maresía also relies on the experience of Kora Living, already present in the Canary Islands through its two complexes in operation in Tenerife. Kora Nivaria Beach, consolidated as one of the benchmarks for premium resort living in the islands, generating double-digit returns for its owners. Added to this is Kora Tigot, which opened its doors at the end of 2025, thus reinforcing the company's hotel and operational management capacity in the archipelago.
An architecture born from the landscape
One of the great differentiating values of Kora Maresía lies in its architectural and landscape integration. The project has been designed by the prestigious international studio HofmanDujardin together with the Lanzarote studio ISOC, resulting in a contemporary proposal deeply linked to the island's visual identity. The horizontality of the volumes, the earthy tones, the use of natural materials, and the constant relationship with the sea and the volcanic landscape turn the complex into a natural extension of the environment. "The architecture had to dialogue with Lanzarote with local respect and sensitivity," points out Eneko Balda, Chief Development Officer of Kategora. "We wanted a building that seemed to emerge from the island itself."
The interior design, also developed by HofmanDujardin, incorporates noble and local materials such as volcanic stone, natural fibers, and woods traditionally used in Canarian architecture. Vegetation, designed by the studio La Tarde Paisaje, also plays a leading role: more than 8,500 m² of gardens and multisensory green paths with native species that promote island biodiversity and reduce water consumption.
The development will also allow for the regeneration and enhancement of its coastline, integrating it with the promenade and restoring prominence to the landscape and the sea. "Recovering this enclave and opening it up to the environment again is part of our commitment to the island and to a more responsible way of developing Kora Maresía," states Balda.
Sustainability as the project's core
Sustainability permeates all dimensions of Kora Maresía, from construction to its future operation. The complex incorporates passive and active energy efficiency solutions, low-consumption lighting, high-performance thermal envelope, and solar panels with a capacity of 100 kWh.
One of the most innovative elements will be the future Seawater Desalination Plant (EDAM), currently undergoing administrative processing, which will cover almost all of the complex's water consumption for irrigation, swimming pools, and sanitary uses. Added to this are measures aimed at promoting sustainable mobility, such as a bicycle parking with more than 40 spaces.
This approach connects directly with Kategora's philosophy, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, consolidating a business model based on sustainability, urban integration, and professionalized management of real estate investment assets.
An investment linked to international premium tourism
With more than 60% of the apartments already sold, Kora Maresía is scheduled to open its doors in 2027, representing an investment opportunity aligned with the evolution of the tourism market and the living sector. The project projects an estimated net profitability of 6.5% and is marketing units starting from €315,000 under Kategora's usual model: sale in horizontal division and integral operation through Kora Living.
Kategora, in addition to offering its investors excellent asset profitability, provides its investors with exclusive use and enjoyment benefits of its apartments, including one free week per year at Kora Maresía —six nights in mid or low season— and additional stay options with preferential conditions. Added to this is Kora Rewards, the program with which the Basque company thanks its investors for their trust through exclusive discounts for stays in all resorts and complexes operated by its hotel brand Kora Living.
This allows investors to access a professionalized asset, centrally managed and backed by the operational experience that Kora Living has already consolidated in the Canary Islands through its two complexes in Tenerife. Kora Maresía is positioned as a new benchmark for premium resort living in Lanzarote, combining sustainability, international demand, and professionalized hotel management in one of Southern Europe's most solid tourist markets.
