Plus Fariones Suite Hotel

we spent a week at the hotel in October 24 on half board basis. The hotel has been recently refurbished, and the work that has been done is amazing. The hotel looks fantastic, both inside and out. There's a real feel of luxury here, the decor is modern and classy, the pool area is beautiful, and the restaurant is also fitted out to a high standard. The hotel overlooks the beach and sea front. You can hear the waves crashing as you sit on your balcony or when eating at the restaurant. The rooms are also nice, however, the suite, which we had booked, was a bit sterile, the bedroom was great with fantastic wardrobe and storage, the bathroom was also well appointed but the living area was just a bit bland, a bit more effort here really would have made the whole experience feel nearly 5 stars. There is a gym onsite also, which is basic but clean and has enough to get you by for a week. The staff were all really nice and helpful. The pool area is not equipped with enough sunbeds for the number of guests. Many times, we arrived after breakfast and could not find a pair of sun loungers together where we could relax by the pool. Most of the sun loungers are reserved with towels by guests from early in the morning, We observed loungers not being used for 5 or 6 hours some days, but the towels were not removed by staff to allow others to use the loungers. On 2 of the 7 nights, the food was really good. The remaining nights, the food was just average. There are areas of the hotel that are reserved for "select" customers. To avail of the select areas, you must pay an additional 70 euro/PP/per day. There are no coffee making facilities provided in the rooms. Again, you can pay an additional 5 euro/day for a machine to be provided. For a hotel of this quality, you would expect coffee/tea making facilities to be included. The hotel is not cheap, one week on half board for 2 persons will cost you around 2K. the hotel does look like a 4 Star Hotel, but the negative aspects we experienced would reduce this to a 3.5-star experience.

Came home a week ago after an amazing stay at this hotel. All staff were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Our room was on the third floor, which was absolutely stunning, with views overlooking the pool and bar area and sea view 😍 All areas of the hotel were spotlessly clean and kept to a very high standard. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Great hotel. Visited mid/late July 2024 on bed and breakfast basis. Great selection of food, everything very clean, friendly staff across the board, no issues with sunbeds (we went up to the "solarium" which is adults only and for 10 days we had circa 30 sun beds and a shower to ourselves. Generally fairly quiet noise wise when we stayed. Very easy access to a great public beach and right at the start of the Puerto del Carmen strip so no shortage of bars, restaurants and shops. Good snorkelling very close by as well. Cannot fault anything.

We stayed at the Plus Fariones Hotel for a week with our two young children (ages 0 and 2) and had an amazing time. The hotel is beautiful, clean, and bright, with excellent facilities, and the staff is universally friendly and welcoming. There’s a lot to say about this hotel, so let’s break it down. Our rooms were very pleasant, well-designed, and kept impeccably clean by the housekeeping staff. The breakfast was impressive—immense, versatile, and delicious! They offered freshly made omelets, pancakes, and eggs, along with a variety of typical English breakfast items and an abundance of fresh local fruit. The swimming pool is fantastic, and while there weren’t many other children around during our stay, there was a baby pool that our two-year-old absolutely loved! The beach was just perfect, with clear water, clean sand, and plenty of loungers and parasols readily available. The gym was my personal favorite. I used it every day and even discovered some new workout programs. The Technogym equipment was better than what we have at home—everything you need for a solid workout, whether you’re into weightlifting or cardio. I have to say, I even appreciated the architecture of the hotel. Every part of it feels thoughtfully designed, with cozy seating areas, indoor plants, bright colors, and materials. And again, everything is kept spotlessly clean! As for downsides, I can only think of two, and they’re both policy-related. First, the towel reserving habit at the pool was extremely frustrating. Even at the kiddy pool, adults would reserve loungers without any intention of using them until later in the day. I’d estimate only 1 in 4 loungers were actually occupied, with the rest just reserved by towels. This could easily be addressed by the hotel implementing a policy against it, as I’ve seen in many other places. It’s a rude habit, and I hope the hotel steps in. The second issue was with the gym access policy. You need to pick up a pass at the counter, which is only valid for the day, meaning you have to stop by the lobby every day before heading to the gym. I’m sure there’s a reason for this, but it was a bit inconvenient. Lastly, a note on the coffee—this isn’t specific to the hotel but more of an island-wide issue. The coffee was disappointing, with Nespresso cups seeming to be the standard. Good coffee can really elevate a vacation experience, and despite searching for a week, I couldn’t find a good coffee spot on the island. Most coffee corners default to Nespresso cups, so I guess that’s just how it is here. Overall, this is my honest review of a week we thoroughly enjoyed at the Plus Fariones. We didn’t expect it to be THIS good, especially considering the price. The value is extraordinary. Thank you for a great time, and if we return to Lanzarote, we’ll most definitely stay here again!
