01Is it for you?

Is Princesa Yaiza right for your stay?

Why choose it
Every one of the 330 rooms is a suite, in a white Canarian village of arcades, domes and shaded terraces with the beach at Playa Dorada at the foot of it.
Who it suits
Families who want space, the beach and a children's programme, and couples who want a resort with a thalassotherapy centre and a choice of restaurants.
What to consider
It is a resort at scale — nine restaurants, sports courts and its own children's park — so it is at its busiest in the school holidays. Playa Blanca is at the southern tip of the island, furthest from Timanfaya and the Manrique centres in the north.

02The hotel

The hotel and its rooms

Princesa Yaiza stands on the seafront promenade at Playa Blanca, at the southern tip of Lanzarote, looking across the strait to Fuerteventura. It is built as a white Canarian village of arcades, domes and shaded terraces around gardens and pools, and it is one of the three hotels on the island that the Canary register classes Cinco Estrellas Lujo. The beach at Playa Dorada is at the foot of it, and the marina and the shops of Playa Blanca are along the promenade.

Rooms and suites

All 330 rooms are suites, with beamed ceilings, tiled floors and a sitting area; many face the sea. The scale means families and couples can use the resort differently without getting in each other’s way.

If a particular outlook, bed configuration, connecting rooms or step-free access matters to you, tell us when you enquire and we will confirm it with the hotel for your dates before anything is booked.

05Planning

Planning a stay with Avelia

After discussing your plans, we prepare a tailored proposal with a quoted trip price and clear inclusions. Once you approve it and complete the agreed booking requirements, we confirm your arrangements, coordinate the details and support you while you travel.

How we choose hotels. For their size and character before their brand, and for how they suit the way you travel. No hotel is on our list simply because it sits on a preferred-partner programme. More in our story

Peace of mind

  • Clear before you commit. A written proposal with a quoted trip price and clear inclusions, before any payment.
  • Financially protected. When your stay is part of a package trip, your payments are covered against our insolvency by a guarantee with AXA. A hotel booked on its own is not a package.
  • One point of contact. From the first conversation to the last day, with support while you travel.

Experiences we can arrange

  • Private transfers from the airport, and drivers for the days out
  • Private guides for Timanfaya, the Manrique centres and the wine country
  • A boat day along the Papagayo coves, or the crossing to Fuerteventura from Playa Blanca
  • A day on La Graciosa, from Órzola at the other end of the island
  • Family days planned around who is travelling
  • Tables, tickets and the details around them
