Dining

Altamar Restaurant serves delicious a la carte Mediterranean cuisine, including some of the island's best seafood, against a backdrop of stunning views. This is a superbly magical and romantic setting. Please note that men are requested to wear long trousers here. Alternatively, the Buffet Restaurant is a more informal option, with plentiful Italian and Canarian buffets, themed evenings and show cooking.

Head to Pool & Bar for light bites, like salads and cold cuts, with sunset cocktails, and make a beeline for Star City on the 17th floor for coffee with homemade Spanish cakes, or something a little stronger.

Spa

Aquaplus Spa offers an extensive range of hydrotherapy facilities with biothermal showers, a dynamic pool, a Jacuzzi, a foot bath, a sauna and a Turkish bath. Staff are on hand to help you select the ideal spa treatment from a range of Balinese and Ayurvedic treatments and massages, using luxurious natural products.

Please note that children under the age of 17 are not permitted in the spa.

Location

Arrecife sits in the middle of Lanzarote's east coast, conveniently placed for exploring the rest of the island and some lovely beaches. It boasts a magical and unique landscape, formed by centuries of turbulent tectonic activity. Notable highlights include the Timanfaya National Park – a surreal, martian volcanic landscape – and the Jameos del Aqua, a naturally formed swimming pool in a collapsed lava tunnel. Lanzarote also boasts some of Europe's best scuba diving sites, alongside excellent snorkelling, surfing, windsurfing, parasailing and canoeing.
