One postive bi-product of the current negative economic climate is the impact this is having on the cost of holidays abroad. As many hoteliers and holiday companies in Spain are now being forced to offer reduced price deals in order to generate occupancy. Creating attractive discounts on all types of accommodation on islands such as Lanzarote, in the Canary Islands.
Lanzarote is an ideal summer holiday destination as the island offers guaranteed sunshine and temperatures in excess of 24 Celsius throughout the summer months. Yet is also cooled by a gentle breeze that is absent on the Spanish mainland. Where temperatures during July and August can climb to unbearable levels. Resulting in many residents of the peninsula heading for the Canary Islands in order to escape!
Lanzarote also offers a wealth of attractions for those who want to do more than just laze by the pool and soak up the sun. As the island boasts a host of natural attractions such as The Timanfaya Volcano Park that should feature on any visitor’s itinerary.
The Volcano Park lies at the hub of a series of eruptions that blasted Lanzarote for six years during the 1730´s. Leaving behind mile after mile of petrified lava and hundreds of volcanic peaks. Creating surreal scenery that looks like the Planet Mars.
Elsewhere on the island a local artist called Cesar Manrique has fused this twisted terrain with his own creativity in the construction of a series of unique visitor centres. Such as the Jameos del Agua, which started life as a 6km long volcanic tunnel – but is now an incredible underground auditorium and concert venue.
A number of hotels in Lanzarote are offering up to 30% off the cost of a weeks stay during June, July and September this year. With bargains available for those who book before May 30th. Amongst the deals on offer are a weeks stay at the four star Hotel Beatriz in Matagorda – reduced by 15% from £582.83 per couple to £495.40 for bookings on a half board basis.
A similar deal is also available at their sister hotel – the four star Beatriz Spa in Costa Teguise. Where the cost of a double room on a half board basis has been reduced from £567.21 to £482.13 per couple. Deals are also available on a selection of Lanzarote villas, for those who prefer the self catering option. With Whitebeach Holidays, who specialise in holiday villas in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote´s newest resort, offering a weeks break in June for two people for as little as £195.
