Driftwood

  The Detail...

Stylish, sleek and with sensational sea views, this modern apartment is an undiscovered jewel. Hidden in a sleepy village away from the bustling tourist hotspots, it is one of Lanzarote’s best kept secrets. Get to know the locals and hear their ancient fishing tales, before strolling along the coast to find the untouched, sandy coves. With its authentic, laidback vibe and undeveloped coastline, Punta Mujeres is a real one of a kind.

The Driftwood apartment is set within this pretty, fishing village and is on the first floor of a traditional Canarian villa. With a peaceful location on the sparkling waterfront it offers sublime vistas and a tranquil atmosphere.

The open plan living area is spacious and bright and has a luxury finish with modern art pieces. Minimalist sofas look out over the ocean and are joined by a glass-topped dining table with natural wood features. A sophisticated colour palette adds a sense of indulgence and compliments the contemporary coastal paintings and designer artwork. A well-equipped kitchen completes the living area and is perfect for rustling up some of the sumptuous, local dishes.

Two large bedrooms provide room up to four, across one master double and a comfortable twin. The master suite has a massive four poster bed with a bare wood frame and sink-in mattress. A deluxe in-room bath looks out over the waters and is joined by a walk-in shower with mosaic tiling. Quirky, little pieces add a boutique-feel and include a vintage fishing boat and salvaged driftwood. The airy twin bedroom also has a chic, coastal finish with an in-room shower and views of the ocean.

Up on the roof, you’ll find a stunning sea-view terrace with a luxurious day bed and glass-fronted balcony. Sit back on the padded sun loungers and soak up the warm summer rays or pour yourself a cocktail and lap up the views of the bay.

When you’re feeling more adventurous and want to get out and explore, there is plenty to see just moments from your door. The charming village of Punta Mujeres is oozing with character and has glistening, whitewashed villas and a rugged, pebbled shore. Gorgeous, little restaurants can be found huddled amongst the streets, and offer home-cooked foods and local entertainment. Arrieta and Costa Teguise can also be found nearby, along with the island’s striking volcanic landscapes and sun-scorched hillsides.
