Secrets Lanzarote Resort and Spa is an adults-only resort for guests aged eighteen and over, in Puerto Calero, a marina community on the south-east coast of the island. It has 335 rooms and sits on the waterfront, with four outdoor pools, a spa and six restaurants, plus a poolside bar and a cafe. All-inclusive rates, covering buffet and à la carte meals, are available on some rate plans, and there is no children’s programme, so the mood is relaxed and grown-up. The resort belongs to the Hyatt Inclusive Collection, and it is designed for couples and friends who want a few days of pool, spa and food without the noise of a family resort. It is not on a beach, though nearby beaches such as Playa de Matagorda and Puerto del Carmen Beach are within reach by car, and the marina has boat trips and restaurants close by.
Location and getting around
Puerto Calero is on the south-east coast, around twenty minutes by car from the airport and about eighteen minutes from Puerto del Carmen’s main beach. The marina is the departure point for several boat trips, and it is a convenient base for the southern sights.
Timanfaya, La Geria and the Salinas de Janubio are within an easy drive, and the northern César Manrique sites can be reached by car in about an hour. Since there is no beach on the property, many guests rent a car or use taxis for beach and sightseeing days.
The rooms and facilities
Rooms are set within a large waterfront complex, and the adults-only policy gives the pools and restaurants a calm atmosphere. Pool access runs through the daytime and early evening, so check the hours if you plan a late swim. Secrets Spa offers treatments and should be booked ahead in the busy season. Free self-parking and free in-room WiFi are offered. Buffet and à la carte meals are included only on all-inclusive rates, so choose your rate with care.
Who it suits
Couples, honeymooners and groups of adult friends who value quiet, good food and a spa. It is not the right choice for families, since children are not accepted, and guests who want to step straight onto a beach should consider a beachfront resort in Playa Blanca instead.
Good to know
Check the rate you book, because inclusions differ between plans. Winter is the popular season for warm-weather travel, so book early. The resort sits next to a marina, so boat trips to Papagayo and La Graciosa can be easy to arrange from the area.
