Amenities

Casa Yazmina is conveniently located a five minute drive from the centre of the resort, towards the old lighthouse of Playa Blanca. Within a 10-15 minute walk is a small commercial centre with a mini- mart and a couple of restaurants but a greater selection can be found in the town centre of Playa Blanca, 4.3 kilometres away along the seafront promenade. This is lit at night so you can enjoy a relaxing walk home after a delicious meal overlooking the sea. In recent years Playa Blanca has grown from a traditional Canarian fishing village into a fashionable tourist resort and has retained a great deal of its original character. The pretty promenade runs along the seafront and is lined with bars, restaurants and shops. It passes the old harbour area, from where regular ferries to Fuerteventura and a variety of excursions depart, including a water taxi to the outstandingly lovely and un-spoilt Papagayo beaches, famous throughout Spain for their golden sands and clear waters. The small, Playa Blanca beach is located in the middle of the village and is overlooked by typical, Canarian restaurants. For children of different age groups, Kikoland has a multitude of fun on offer, including an amphitheatre, a sports area, a football club, animation, organised activities and a bar from which parents can supervise. The neighbouring Playa Dorada is the resorts largest beach, with sea front restaurants and water sports. The sophisticated, attractively laid out Puerto Rubicon Marina is reached via the promenade, or is a short drive from all our holiday villas. It is the location of a twice weekly market, a shopping centre with a bowling alley and many exclusive, designer boutiques, bars, cafes, restaurants and several superb marine excursions and activities. These include game fishing, a sailing school, yacht charter, deep sea diving, a catamaran excursion and sea-front tennis courts. There are also two water parks within the resort; Aqualava and paradise Island Water Park. It is worth renting a car, even if only for a few days, to see some of the fabulous sights that Lanzarote is famous. The fascinating and colourful Salinas de Janubio, the salt flats, which to this day help to de-salinate the islands water. The charming village of El Golfo is located on the south west coast of the island and boasts the most magnificent sunsets on the island. Watch these from one of the delightful fish restaurants which line the volcanic sea front and go for a short walk to El Charco de los Clicos, a small green lake providing a dramatic contrast to the surrounding black sand and lava. Do not miss a trip to the Timanfaya National Park, a truly spectacular and once in a life time experience, view this on http://www.premier-holidays.com/info/the_bus_ride_of_a_lifetime.aspx . Visit the lovely village of Yaiza, which has been voted one of the most picturesque villages in Spain and the nearby typically Canarian villages of Femes and Playa Quemada have excellent, traditional restaurants with magnificent views.

A car is recommended but not essential as a regular bus service now runs between Faro Park and and the lighthouse area of Playa Blanca in the west and Las Coloradas in the east. The bus service runs through the centre of Playa Blanca via the Bus Station and stops near to Playa Flamingo beach, the harbour, Playa Dorada Beach and Marina Rubicon.
