Scoring 8.8 out of 10 on Booking.com, La Laguneta is a 2-star self-catering complex set in a quiet residential area of Puerto del Carmen, just 500 metres from the beaches and a 5-to-15-minute walk to the main strip with shops, restaurants, and bars.

Free street parking is available nearby, and the bus stop for the airport (line 161) is practically across the road. Lanzarote Golf Course is a 3-minute drive away.
