Right on the beach and with a great pool scene, the ClubHotel Riu Paraiso was made for swimming and sunbathing.
The pool scene steals the show at this large, whitewashed hotel. Four swimming pools sit within strolling distance of the beach, and spacious terraces give way to flower and palm-filled gardens. One of the pools has a swim-up bar, plus there’s another bar around the corner, complete with plenty of outdoor seating.

Another great thing about this place is the lengthy list of sports and activities on offer. Head to the multi-purpose court for a game of mini football, or practise your aim at the airgun shooting range. If being pampered is more your thing, the wellness centre comes with a sauna, a beauty salon and massage treatments.

There’s just as much choice when it comes to dining, with three restaurants to pick from. The main one is all about big pan-global buffets, while the three themed ones specialise in Asian, Canarian and Mexican cuisine themed restaurant. The Asian restaurant is particularly popular because of its cosy and intimate atmosphere.

Last but not least, a word on the rooms. They’re housed in low-level buildings which are spread out around the grounds, so there’s plenty of privacy. Inside, things are fairly traditional with cream walls and patterned soft furnishings the norm. Extras come in the form of satellite TVs and air-conditioning, while spacious balconies complete the scene.

Your guide to Playa De Los Pocillos, Lanzarote

“Peaceful Playa de los Pocillos is a world away from the lively side of Lanzarote.”

If a stretch of sand, the odd bar and a couple of restaurants are all it takes to create your perfect beach break, Playa de los Pocillos is just the ticket. It’s neither a traditional fishing village or an action-packed mega-resort. What it’s about is rest and relaxation. Beach-wise you’ve got a broad expanse of fine sand, gently shelving into clear waters. And there’s often a balmy breeze off the sea that tempers the summer heat - not to mention making the resort a favourite with windsurfers. As for other daytime activities, it’s mainly down to more watersports. If you fancy a day out, there are regular buses to the island’s capital, Arrecife, where you’ll find a good range of shops, as well as some interesting sights, including El Charco de San Gines, a saltwater lagoon in the city centre surrounded by fisherman’s houses, and two museums housed in castles. In the evening, Playa de los Pocillos is not the place for nightlife lovers, who should instead head down to Puerto Del Carmen for some action. However, if you’re not worried about dancing the night away and a good meal is the order of the day, there are a couple of good restaurants on the seafront. This place is all about the laid-back holiday life-style – so sit back, relax and go with the flow.
