Playa Honda

Playa Honda belongs to Bartolomé village, the second largest after Arrecife, and it is the place that has the biggest growth in Lanzarote in the last two decades. It also has an important strategic place within Lanzarote: it is the closest village to the airport and the link between the south and the north of the island, so it has become a place for regular shopping and short but continuous overnight stays.

Playa Honda's growth from tourism is more than evident, the hotel offer has been increasing considerably in the last few years, as well as the appearance of a wide range of leisure and restaurant options, most of them gathered in the Deiland shopping centre, one of the best shopping areas in Lanzarote. The biggest beaches of the island are also here in Playa Honda, and through a beautiful avenue links the town with the capital of Lanzarote, Arrecife.

In addition, Playa Honda is an area not very crowded by tourism, and there are many " villas "which are small houses perfect to spend a few days and keep you away from the big tourist accommodations.
