This opinion is completely independent, based on our experiences. We visited the region anonymously, making our own choices and paying our bills in full.
1. Best 5-star hotel in Lanzarote: Hotel Secrets Bahia
The essentials:
- Location: Corralejo
- Type: Hotel
- Price range: 5 stars
- All-inclusive available: yes
Why stay at the Secret Bahia hotel
If you’re looking for a luxury hotel in Corralejo, we really like the Secrets Bahia hotel. In fact, it was one of our favorite 5-star hotels in Fuerteventura.
The superb views of the sea and the island of Lobos are breathtaking, creating a spectacular backdrop for an unforgettable vacation. The beautiful swimming pool, surrounded by magnificent palm trees and dotted with quiet spots, gives the impression of being in a real tropical oasis, far from the hustle and bustle.
What also sets this hotel apart is its warm, intimate atmosphere, despite its size. Well-appointed spaces and hidden nooks add a touch of charm and conviviality, creating an atmosphere that’s nothing like that of a huge hotel complex.
A real favorite was the small garden terrace, where we enjoyed our dinner and breakfast al fresco. It was an authentic experience, offering a peaceful atmosphere.
Luxury touches we love
- Very comfortable armchairs in the bedroom
- The quality of the evening buffet and the dining garden
- The lush garden around the pool creates intimate spaces.
Swimming pool and beach
The hotel’s swimming pool is really its strongest asset. We particularly liked the curves of the pools, and the palm trees and other plants, which create smaller spaces where everyone can find peace and quiet.
There’s also a beach right in front of the hotel with deckchairs and cabanas on the water. But the beach isn’t all sand: there are also rocks and popcorn-shaped coral reefs.
Practical information
- Neighborhood: Corralejo central beaches
- Adults-only: yes
- Other facilities: spa, gym, solarium overlooking the sea
- Parking: on the street, free

The hotel’s large swimming pools are a real asset, offering areas ideal for relaxation and leisure. For those opting for the Star-Prestige level, the exclusive additional pool adds a touch of luxury and intimacy to the experience, given that the hotel is very large indeed.
Our spacious room was a haven of comfort and tranquility. We appreciated the generous space that allowed us to relax in full view of the sea.

The Barcelo Corralejo Sands hotel offers a pleasant stay thanks to its central location, making it easy to enjoy the charms of the city. The spacious rooms are a haven of comfort, offering all the space you need to relax after a busy day. What we liked most was the careful design of the hotel, which avoids the massive appearance often associated with large properties. This creates a welcoming, convivial atmosphere.

A particular advantage for families with young children is the dedicated area specially designed for them. With an adapted swimming pool and play area, parents can easily keep an eye on their children while enjoying moments of relaxation.

- Type: Hotel
- Price range: 4 stars
- All-inclusive available: no, but half board
Why stay at the INNSide Fuerteventura hotel?
We loved our stay at the INNSide hotel in Costa Calma and highly recommend it. It offers an unforgettable experience thanks to its enchanting bohemian chic decor. And it’s not too big, which is also very pleasant.
From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the magnificent wood and concrete textures that adorn the common areas, creating an atmosphere that is both natural and elegant. The spacious rooms, bathed in natural light, offer views of the surrounding countryside and the serene expanse of the sea.
The peacefulness of this establishment adds a touch of serenity to your stay, allowing you to relax to the full. The buffet restaurant is of an excellent standard, with a wide variety of tasty dishes.
Swimming pool and beach
- Full-length infinity pool. We loved sitting in the water and admiring the unobstructed view.

The essentials:
- Location: Caleta de Fuste
- Type: Hotel
- Price range: 4 stars
- All-inclusive available: yes
Why stay at the Barcelo Royal hotel
The Barcelo Royal Level hotel in Caleta de Fuste is an excellent luxury option thanks to its excellent location, just a few steps from the beach. Lovers of idleness and swimming will be delighted by the proximity of the sea.
Surrounded by greenery, the hotel’s suites offer a pleasant, spacious ambience. It’s a pleasure to relax in this comfortable space, while the private terrace adds an extra touch of privacy. Enjoying the peaceful views over the lush gardens while sipping a drink is a most soothing experience.
It’s not too big a hotel, but in a big complex, and you have access to all the activities and facilities.
The only negative point: in our opinion, the buffet was not up to the standard of the hotel’s other services.
Swimming pool and beach
We really enjoyed the full-length pool facing the sea.
The choice of seats and pool beds was very pleasant. It’s not huge, but as it’s only for the Royal Adults-only hotel, it’s sufficient.
We also had access to the spa pools, which are shared by all Barcelo hotels.
As for the beach, it’s hard to get much closer. You can see it from the pool and just walk a few metres to get your feet in the sand! Who needs shoes on vacation?

6. Best boutique hotel in town: La Marquesina
The essentials:
- Location: Corralejo
- Type: Hotel
- Price range: 4 stars
- All-inclusive available: no
Why stay at Hotel La Marquesina
Hotel La Marquesina in Corralejo is a real nugget in Corralejo (in our opinion). Its modern design, judiciously combining glass and wood, creates an elegant, contemporary aesthetic. As soon as you arrived, we were struck by the brightness in every corner of the building, creating a welcoming, soothing atmosphere.
Our spacious room, located in the corner of the building, offered a breathtaking view of the bustling city on one side, and the port and island of Lobos on the other. The small terrace was a perfect space to sip a morning coffee while admiring the cityscape and beach below. However, the real gem was the hotel’s rooftop, where a small pool, bar and even a swing awaited us for moments of absolute relaxation, all with a breathtaking panoramic view.
The hotel team gave us a warm welcome as soon as we arrived, adding a personal and friendly touch to our stay.
Just be aware that this hotel is right in the center of town, so there’s noise all around in the evenings.
Swimming pool and beach
The hotel has a small swimming pool on the roof terrace. It’s not suitable for swimming, but it’s a great place to cool off with an exceptional view. For the record, we didn’t take the above photo with a drone, it’s just that part of the terrace is even higher up so that everyone can enjoy the views!
What’s more, just down the road from the hotel is Playa Corralejo, one of the city’s main beaches: fine sand and emerald-colored water.

Why stay at the XQ Palacete hotel?
The greatest asset of the XQ Palacete hotel in Morro Jable is its privileged location for an unforgettable stay in the Canaries. Located close to the old town, you can easily explore the city’s charms and try out its restaurants. What’s more, the hotel is located right above the beach, allowing you to enjoy moments of relaxation and admire the breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean.
We enjoyed our spacious room with balcony and sea view. We found it the ideal place to enjoy the sunrise over the sea or to be lulled by the soothing sound of the waves.
We appreciated the smaller size of the hotel for more personalized service, especially the restaurant services on the terrace above the sand and sea.

In our opinion, one of the major advantages is the well-equipped kitchen, which means you can prepare your own meals and avoid eating out all the time.
