H10 Lanzarote Princess is one of the big, activity-minded resorts of Playa Blanca, on the southern tip of the island near Marina Rubicon. It has 407 rooms and is built around its pools: two outdoor pools and an indoor pool, with a waterslide, loungers and umbrellas. Four restaurants and a poolside bar cover meals without leaving the grounds, and a nightclub keeps the atmosphere lively after dark. The sports facilities are a draw, with an outdoor tennis court, mini golf, volleyball and basketball, a gym and a sauna, and supervised childcare is offered for a surcharge. There is a rooftop terrace and on-site shopping. It is a four-star property that guests rate very good, which makes it a solid mid-priced choice for a sociable holiday where the hotel is as much a part of the plan as the island.
Location and getting around
The hotel is in the Playa Blanca area of Yaiza, in the south, near the Marina Rubicon waterfront with its shops and restaurants. The resort areas are close to the Papagayo beaches, the ferry to Fuerteventura leaves from Playa Blanca’s harbour, and the Museo Atlántico dive meets in the town.
Timanfaya National Park, the Salinas de Janubio and the La Geria vineyards are all within an easy drive, so it works as a southern base. A hire car is useful for the northern César Manrique sites, which are an hour or more away.
The rooms and facilities
Accommodation is spread across a large complex, and rooms vary by wing and view, so ask for a room near the pools if you want the action and further away if you prefer quiet. Breakfast is available, and many guests choose a rate that includes more meals, so check what your rate covers. Free self-parking is offered, and free WiFi is available in public areas, so check what your room provides. The sauna, gym and sports courts are included, and childcare for younger guests is charged separately.
Who it suits
Families with children of all ages, active couples and groups of friends who like a resort with plenty to do. Guests who prefer a small, quiet boutique stay may find the scale and entertainment busy, especially in the school holidays. Pets are not allowed.
Good to know
Check-in begins in the afternoon and check-out is before noon. Winter is the popular season for warm-weather travel, so book early for the best choice of rooms. The hotel does not list a full spa, only a sauna, so couples who want treatments should look at a different resort in the area.
