Finca De Arrieta by Lanzarote Retreats

This property was more expensive than others available but that is made up for in its uniqueness. We have always wanted to stay in a yurt and this was a great location to experience that. The owners have clearly put a lot of thought and love into the 'finca'.

Nothing major.

Away from the crowds at the popular playas along the south coast, and a short walk to a fishing village with restaurants, a small supermarket and a lovely beach. Comfortable and quirky.

The hot water was intermittent, but the boiler was fixed during our stay. However there is no thermostat on the shower so beware! Swimming pool is small. No views except for the tower room.

Amazing place on the inside. Really cute how it flows lots of great ideas with great executions.The honesty shop is great, although the prices seem a bit out of place. But this happens more & more. The tower is BEAUTIFUL inside and out.

We were there in a quiet period (mid September) and while it was very chill to have the place for us, it lacked a bit of energy and atmosphere which usually come with these. Nothing bad on the village's side, right. Just a bit of a ghost town feeling.It definitely doesn't help that the surroundings outside the village are a dark grey desert... Hopefully they can overcome the struggles and surround themselves with some trees & greenery, would be magical!

Room well furnished, silent, comfortable. Staff very kind and amazing view at down....Really a good glamping experience

I would include breakfast option, it was not available during my stay

The yurt was large, the beds were comfortable. The kitchen had good utensils. The bed in the garden is ideal to relax. The playground is great.Good to disconnect for a few days; but the closest town is very basic and the supermarket quite expensive since it is the only one in the area. Friendly staff.

The lack of service for the price is disappointing; no standard cleaning included (and it gets very dirty due to sand and weather conditions: a lot of wind and morning showers in summer). The roof of the kitchen and eating area have a sort of bamboo layer that looses sand, so it comes in your food. The shower in the bathroom had no power. The ‘honesty shop’ in the resort has good products but they are very expensive! The closest beach has a lot of wind and waves, not really suitable for small children.

Good breakfast. Just coffee and yoghurt missing one day

Found the recycling duty very pertinent and doable.Maybe the having to clean your dirty toilet paper on holidays is not at every one’s reach.

The tranquility of feeling home away from home. Staff were super helpful whether that be face to face or via what’s apps. They were so welcoming and always happy to help. I stayed in the oasis Yurt for one night then upgraded to the eco yurt. Both accommodations were very clean and beautiful.

Without a car, there isn’t much to do and limited restaurant choices. However, the reception staff are always on hand to help with advice and support.

The location is really good as it is in front of the ocean and far from "turistic attractions". The village is well maintained, breakfast really nice and great place to relax and sleep in an alternative way.

Maybe inside the tent is a bit too humid during the winter/spring period. We had to ask for additional blankets as during the night we were cold.

Path to restaurant Excellent car hire on siteFriendly and efficient staff

Close to busy road

coziness of the yurt and surroundings

we knew it was closer to a road and most of the time it didn't bother us. Sometimes when it was quieter you would hear the cars

Great location being so close to the beach and a local restaurant which has good food. Staff are great and the village is a great spot to be if you're coming to Lanzarote.

It was a fantastic stay. Interesting in Many ways, and we just loved it. Would absolutely like to come back. Recommend it our friends.

* There could be a roof covered with solar cells above the car parking. Would cool down the cars on a hot and sunny day. * the blankets were not ecological material. Could have been of cotton, silk, flax or wool. Very uncomfortable!!* we had to order laundry for one day. The washing powder was probably not ecological because it smellt strongly unnatural. No thanx.

The best place for peaceful retreat. Great place for kids. Nice playground and amazing experience with animals (chickens and donkeys). We didn't miss anything there.

We had the pleasure of staying in the eco palm yurt at this wonderful place, and it truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the charm of the surroundings. The yurt itself was not only cozy but also impeccably designed, offering us a perfect blend of comfort and eco-friendly living.What made our stay even more special were the thoughtful touches provided by the hosts. A delightful bottle of wine awaited us, along with a few carefully chosen pieces of furniture that added to the yurt's homely atmosphere. The entire concept of sustainability, recycling, and environmental stewardship embraced by this place is nothing short of admirable. It's heartwarming to see a space that not only offers a nice retreat but also actively contributes to the well-being of our planet.And if you're an animal lover, this place is a paradise. The friendly cats, playful donkeys, and clucking chickens added a delightful touch to our stay.

Our stay was disrupted by noisy neighbors leaving us a bit disappointed.

The different areas (e.g. the pool, kitchen, BBQ, etc). My yurt was very nice and clean as well as the bathroom. I also like the private spot behind my yurt where I could sunbathing. Having a grocery store is a great idea!

Unfortunately, with the heat my yurt was a sauna and even if there was a fan, it did not cool down the air. Also, it would have been nice to be able to eat by the kitchen pool but it is only on Monday. No pot or pan was provided to cook (at least I did not see any) which does not make sense as there's a inside grocery store.

Staff super friendly and clear, spent time with us showing all the structure! You can find lot of local products, food and some souvenir to buy in the shop. Everything wll cleaned and manteined. Many free beach items and games to use for your stay (surfing, umbrellas, etc.)

It would have been nice to be able to buy fresh baked food for breakfast. In any case there where many others thing. Weel done.

The retreat is truly a sanctuary to unwind and connect to the beauty of the North of Lanzarote. In fact, we decided to stay most of our time in and around our accommodation as it offered us everything and more than we wanted. We enjoyed the swimming pool and communal area very much and felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. The communication with the staff was excellent and they replied very elaborately to any of our requests or questions. Our accommodation was clean and provided with all the essentials to make ourselves feel at home.

The honesty shop in the finca is a beautiful concept and is definitely a bonus, yet the lack of fresh vegetables and fruits were somewhat missed. Also the fact that the taps did not have any filters and the water wasn't drinkable otherwise, made it quite laborious to stay hydrated. These are very minor issues and did not influence our overall positive impression of this place.

Good location, good bed and shower, very nice terrace

Communication mainly by smartphone, no breakfast options, expected more organic food in shop

The Eco village is a place to chill and relax we had the Eco Yurt Suite big enough for a family of four with one double and 2 twins and a day bed inside the yurt. Lovely kitchen and bathroom. The outside space was huge a large double day bed in the shade two sun beds a hammock and a large dining area with 7 chairs under cover for eating and a small BBQ. Donkeys, chickens and play area for kids and natural made swimming pool on site & honesty shop. Peace and tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! 300 metres walk to the beach and about 500 metres walk to Arrieta where you can find a supermarket, cafe, restaurants and local bars great for lovers of fish. We also hired bikes that were delivered to our Yurt. Bus stop bottom of road from Eco village Tabayasco stop.

We stayed in the Eco Cabin of Eco Village Finca de Arrieta. It was spacious, private, and every little detail was thought of. Different corners outside to benefit from the sun (or shade) at any moment of the day. My son loved the animals and the hammocks in our garden. I also really loved the ‘honesty shop’ concept, where you could get your basic groceries and pay later.Furthermore this is great location to see the middle and northern sights of Lanzarote. And luckily much more real, than the screamy, touristic southern part of Lanzarote. We stayed 4 nights, which was perfect, to then move on to the south. You do need a car to get around.
