Playa Blanca, Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain

Start the day at the bright main restaurant, which offers buffet-style and à la carte options with an international flavour at breakfast and lunch, with highchairs available for younger guests. If you prefer to graze on your own schedule, apartments come with fully equipped kitchenettes so you can mix eating out with relaxed, home-style meals.

By the pool, the bar keeps you topped up with drinks and light bites during the day, serving a mix of local and international options. In the evenings, nearby Marina Rubicón and Playa Blanca’s seafront give you a wide choice of bars and restaurants for dinner and sundowners.

A smart dress code may apply at the restaurant, and opening times, menus and reservation requirements can vary by season and board basis.

Days tend to centre on the curving freshwater pool, edged by loungers and parasols and backed by whitewashed buildings and palms. The main pool is heated from 1 November to 31 March (weather permitting), which makes Cordial Marina Blanca a solid choice for winter-sun getaways. Complimentary pool towels are provided so you can pack lighter.

When you fancy the sea, you’re within easy reach of Playa Blanca’s trio of main beaches, plus the more secluded sands of Flamingo Beach and the famous Papagayo coves a short taxi or boat ride away, where calm waters and golden sand await.

Workouts are covered by a compact, air-conditioned gym with free weights and fixed strength equipment, typically open from 08:00–20:00 depending on occupancy.

Families will appreciate the children’s playground with swings and slides, while a modest programme of daytime activities and family-friendly fun runs in peak summer between mid-June and mid-September. Evening entertainment is more low-key, leaving you free to wander out to the marina or promenade.

For extra pampering, an off-site spa offers massage treatments to book (charges apply, minimum age 18 years), and the on-site reception team can help with local information and equipment hire, including mobility scooter rental.
