This sophisticated resort is located on the south of the island of Lanzarote, in front of the sea and only 10 kilometres from Timanfaya National Park and around 900 metres from the picturesque fishing village of Playa Blanca. The hotel was designed as a typical village of Lanzarote, with romantic courtyards and traditional spots. In fact, the entrance is a replica of Teguise's church, Our Lady of Guadalupe. This hotel stands out for its singular architecture and its refined service, thus becoming an icon of high-end tourism. All rooms have a living room with a sofa as well as a complete range of features, such as a pillow and sheet menu as well as a private en-suite bathroom with exclusive toiletries.

You're sure to appreciate the recreational amenities, which include 3 outdoor swimming pools, a sauna and a 24-hour fitness centre. Additional features at this hotel include complimentary wireless Internet access, a hair salon and wedding services.
Beautiful hotel with many lovely features but room for improvement. Hotel is beautifully styled with lovely large lagoon style pool. It would help drown out the sound of nearby construction work by playing some music near that pool, nothing crazy loud needed. Pool bar very inconsistent. Service to the loungers was fairly infrequent and the quality of the cocktails was mixed with some tasting nothing like they were meant to. Service here was slow but the staff were mostly friendly. This fell short of 5 stars. Sun loungers not a problem, many free throughout the day. We booked Club but felt it wasn't worth the money. The Club Lounge is limited (6.30-8) for open bar and the lounge is dreary and cave like. It needs a serious update to reflect the cost, maybe moving the club to the rooftop area. The Club pool area was nice but had a larger English group when we were there who hogged the Bali beds, often not showing up until later in the day. Towels should be removed if not occupied by a certain time. The club lounge layout changed when we there from spread out couples and group settings to all couples on one side and groups on the other which left the couples side quite cramped and lacking any privacy. Breakfast was good apart from the warm sliced fruit and yoghurts which really need some refrigeration. Reception staff very friendly and accommodating. Lovely room but the beds are quite stiff. A beautiful hotel but these issues mentioned would prevent us from booking again.
Lovely hotel nearly everything you want. Close to marina and restaurants . Little walk to beach but we'll worth it. Entertainment in hotel first class. Pools great with chilled out atmosphere. Breakfast superb. Maids to room were great. One of the best rooms I have been to everything fantastic. Good value for money
We had a lovely week at the hotel. All staff were lovely and friendly. Especially the bar man Hassan who was very talkative and helpful.
We stayed at the Volcan in August 2026 as a family of 4 children aged 10 and 15. On booking there was a disclaimer about building works being carried out at the time so I was worried it would be noisy. I needn’t have panicked it was very quiet surprisingly so. We arrived and walking through the chapel to reception to our welcome glass of champagne was welcomed and non alcoholic version for the kids. Check in was fine. The rooms we had were facing the pool and lovely and spacious you received your own LIVVO beach/canvas bag which was a nice touch. Rooms provided toiletries, razors, comb, toothbrush , slippers. Robes etc. you are also provided with beach towels which you can change regularly. The room layout is good but I still can’t figure out why the telephone was in the toilet LOL. Not the most thought out thing. (Loved the ice and water machines dotted around they are sorely missed) There were a few families from all nationalities staying and everyone was friendly and welcoming. However I wouldn’t really class this as a family types place not a lot of entertainment for children or activities for them. They did have a drumming lesson event for the younger children whilst we were there. But nothing else. No music around the pool. No atmosphere. Small pool bar near the heated kids pool. Not a lot for children so they can easily get bored. There is a gym and spa but I never used. It was quite small when I looked. There are a lot of quiet areas dotted around there are comfy beds but these have no shade near them. They also need a few more umbrellas near that pool. You can go directly to the marina through the hotel gates and there you will find designer shops and an array of restaurants. Some need booking or you will wait forever. The market is on 2 days a week. There is a Hiperdino supermarket where you can top up on drinks and food. Playa dorado beach is about a 10-15 min walk away but it’s a lovely sandy beach and has lots of restaurants. It is so easy to stay on the complex as it’s lovely peaceful resort with no rush for sunbeds at any time but I’d say to go out and have a look. The staff were very pleasant and nice. Breakfast was great lots of choice. Omelettes made to order, full English, cereals, fresh fruits, salmon, breads cheese hams etc. Cleaners were Ok came most days we had a cuddly toy disappear from our room so I had to email the reception to query how. It was ‘found’ after a few days so that’s the main point. The Oasis bar in the marina was good fun but the area itself as a whole was much quieter than I was expecting. Met a few people that made it more fun. I would recommend to couples and family with children that don’t need to be continuously entertained or they will struggle. I would return but hope my next stay at the Volcan would be as good or better.
10/10 beautiful hotel and amazing food, there is an adults only section but it was full however the hotel is so big you have lots of private space. Very close to markets on wed and Saturday and an easy walk to the town and local bars, staff are super nice and the place is really just beautiful and chill
