Casita Coco

Some holidays are all about doing more, while others are about slowing down and simply enjoying the moment. Casita Coco is firmly in the latter camp. Tucked away in the peaceful village of Guatiza in northern Lanzarote, this adults-only boutique retreat has been thoughtfully designed for guests who want to disconnect from the everyday and embrace a gentler pace of life. With calming interiors, a spacious private terrace and access to a shared heated pool surrounded by cactus gardens, it's a wonderful base for discovering the island's quieter side.

Originally converted from a traditional village barn, Casita Coco has been beautifully transformed into a bright, contemporary hideaway inspired by the timeless style of César Manrique. White-painted wooden ceilings, natural textures and handcrafted details create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, while floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the living space in soft morning light and open directly onto the private terrace, blurring the line between indoors and out.

The open-plan living area is the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring Lanzarote's volcanic landscapes, while the fully equipped kitchen includes everything you need for easy self-catering, from an oven and dishwasher to a fridge, freezer and all the essential utensils. The separate bedroom offers a luxurious king size bed dressed in quality cotton linen, with blackout curtains ensuring restful nights and unhurried mornings. The spacious ensuite bathroom features a generous walk-in shower, bidet and natural ventilation, while air conditioning, ceiling fans and high-speed WiFi provide comfort throughout your stay.

Outside, the generous private terrace becomes your own peaceful sanctuary. Whether you're enjoying a leisurely breakfast beneath the large sun umbrella, settling in with a good book or lingering over a glass of wine as the evening light softens, it's a space designed for relaxation. Carefully chosen outdoor furniture and subtle lighting make it just as inviting after sunset as it is during the day, creating the perfect setting for slow evenings under the Lanzarote sky.

In keeping with the property's philosophy of mindful travel, there is no TV, encouraging guests to properly switch off. Instead, a projector is available on request for cosy movie nights, while a Bluetooth speaker lets you create the perfect soundtrack to your stay. High-speed WiFi extends throughout the property, including the pool area and outdoor chill-out spaces, making Casita Coco equally suited to remote workers and those enjoying an extended island escape.

When it's time to explore, you'll find yourself perfectly placed to discover the authentic beauty of northern Lanzarote. Visit César Manrique's Jardín de Cactus, wander through charming villages, hike across dramatic volcanic scenery or spend lazy afternoons on peaceful beaches away from the crowds. After each adventure, returning to the calm surroundings of Casita Coco feels like coming home.
