Best for Trendiness - Expert review of Finca Malvasia
Lanzarote's most stylish, boutique accommodation is a special rural retreat.
The hotel is designed by a close associate of the great local architect, César Manrique. Its friendly English owners are passionate about the island – particularly its food and wine. They happily sat down with me to suggest their personal restaurant recommendations, and can arrange massages and surfing lessons. This is a real retreat that is truly off the beaten track.
Location:
I loved this 'finca's' location. It's reach on a bumpy track, stands in the middle of vineyards, and its landscaped gardens, with palm and banana trees, splashes of brightly coloured bougainvillea and striking cacti, are set against a volcanic backdrop. Beaches are less than half an hour’s drive away.
Bedrooms:
Four airy and well-equipped white stone apartments, each with its own terrace overlooking the pool, feature king-size beds with Egyptian cotton and upmarket toiletries. The DVD players, with well-stocked DVD library are a welcome touch, as is the complimentary bottle of wine provided on arrival. Rooms are rustic and tastefully decorated and I felt so completely relaxed on my stay in my spotlessly clean, spacious apartment that I had to drag myself away to explore the island.
