The prestigious UK newspaper, 'The Independent' considers that "Lanzarote has established itself as one of the most luxurious destinations in Spain in recent years, with the island betting on quality and unique experiences instead of the mass tourism that characterized it in the past."
The Independent highlights that this new trend "agrees with Lanzarote's deep-rooted construction and environmental regulations and the legacy of the artist and architect César Manrique."
Thus, you can better enjoy the "beautiful natural volcanic landscape of the island is protected and creates a beautiful aerial image of the dark lava fields and reddish mountains dotted with whitewashed buildings."
For The Independent, the most luxurious hotel on the island is the César Lanzarote, in La Asomada, which even highlights the arrival, which is made by a "winding road" until you reach the "imposing entrance and the landscape of vineyards and palm trees take you to this impressive mansion."
In second place they place the Iberostar Selection Lanzarote Park hotel, in Playa Blanca, of which they highlight that "supervised by Manrique, this hotel of three semicircular buildings was designed to imitate the souks, the distinctive volcanic stone walls that surround the vines grown on the island."
The third most luxurious hotel on the island is, according to The Independent, La Isla y el Mar, in Puerto del Carmen. "Although this hotel has 81 suites, it feels like a boutique hotel," the newspaper considers, which also highlights its "minimalist atmosphere", but with "luxurious details that adorn the rooms and common areas."
In fourth position they place the Salinas Paradisus of Costa Teguise, of which it says that "although it could be one of the oldest hotels, you wouldn't notice it, as it exudes the contemporary aesthetic of a high-end beach club. It is worth taking a walk to contemplate the original works of art and architecture of Manrique."
The fifth most luxurious hotel in Lanzarote for The Independent is the Seaside Los Jameos Playa, located next to Playa de los Pocillos. This establishment highlights its classic Canarian style with pine wood details and typical Lanzarote painting in white, brown and blue.
Next, the Arrecife Gran Hotel & Spa, in sixth place, followed by the Hotel Fariones, in seventh.
In eighth place they place the Secrets Lanzarote Resort & Spa of Puerto Calero, followed by Casa Sua in Caleta de Famara, the complex of Jon Kortajarena composed of a villa, three apartments and a studio.
Completing the classification, in tenth place, the Hotel Princesa Yaiza of Playa Blanca.
