Two hotels in one… worth reading on for more details

Playa Blanca has become a popular and expanding resort on the south coast of Lanzarote. Here you will find the lovely beachfront 5 star Luxe Princesa Yaiza which offers something for everyone.

First we have the Princesa Yaiza itself

Each of the 330 mostly suites and twin rooms are spacious and furnished to a very high standard with wood, attractive textiles and modern bathrooms. The twin rooms have a smaller sitting area than the Junior Suites whilst the Suites have a separate sitting room and a walk-in shower in the bathroom. All rooms have satellite TV, mini-bar, safe, hairdryer, bathrobes, air-conditioning and terrace or balcony. Extra beds are sofa beds 1.7m long. Views are of the gardens, side seaview, pool view or full seaview at a supplement.

Up to five restaurants for dinner

Dining here is flexible, with up to three restaurants available to standard half board guests: International food is offered buffet and show-cooking style for breakfast and dinner in the Yaiza; the Italian and Mexican. There are also two à la carte restaurants (reservations required) the Japanese ‘Kampai’ and the Italian 'Don Giovanni'  and the gourmet "Isla de Lobos", all available for guests on the deluxe half board meal plan at a higher supplement (including the other 3 half board restaurants) or tapas at the "Mas Tapas". Some restaurants may close in quieter periods. 24 hour room service is also available. Gala dinners on 25 and 31 Dec are included for half board guests (not available for BB guests).

Lunch and poolside drinks are served at El Chiringuito whilst the bars have charmingly different atmospheres often with live music.

Newly opened area with ice cream parlour, jazz club and more

The Princesa Yaiza Plaza is a small precinct where you will find restaurants together with an Italian Ice cream parlour and a  Jazz Club. Set back from the promenade the Plaza is open for non-residents too.

Sport or Spa

For outdoor activities: there are two swimming pools, one seawater and one heatable freshwater with views towards the sea and beach, 2 Jacuzzis, plus a children’s pool. Sports include 2 squash courts, 2 tennis courts, volleyball, table tennis, snooker and a free gym and sauna.

Younger children are catered for with a huge “soft playroom”, a separate play area with 3 small pools and an entertainment programme “Kikoland” which caters for all age groups from 3 to 16 years old. For more details on this please ask us. We recommend parental supervision of children at all times.

There is a super Thalasso Centre for a wide range of beauty and health treatments and an indoor treatments pool with jets.

Princesa Yaiza offers good service and a selection of shops and is extremely popular with our guests, so early booking is recommended. 

Now for part two – the Family Suites at Princesa Yaiza

These lovely family suites are part of Princesa Yaiza but are located in their own annexe grounds across the road and are specifically designed for families. The main hotel, the other restaurants and facilities can easily be reached by a connecting covered walkway.

There are just 55 suites here, each one with ample space for 2 adults and 2 or 3 children, although up to 4 adults and 1 child would also be comfortable. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, whilst the second bedroom has a shower room and wc across the hall. The sitting room is well furnished and includes a sofa bed, approx. 5' 7", so not really suitable for adults.

This building is air-conditioned and every suite has a fridge, satellite TV, a free safe, bathrobes and slippers for adults, pool towels, and a hairdryer. Each balcony or terrace looks over the pool and gardens.

There is a heatable freshwater swimming pool and a children’s pool too, as always we urge supervision of young children in pools and on balconies. There is also a supervised gym here.

All of the facilities in the main hotel can be used by guests staying in the Family Suites 

We recommend the Family Suites as they are designed specifically for families, and offer good standards. We strongly recommend early booking as these suites are very popular too.

For your comfort we do include two taxis for 4 guests or more from the airport.

We include private taxi transfers – approx. 35 mins.
