- Gloria Izaro Club Hotel

This family-friendly apartment complex is conveniently situated in the popular holiday resort of Puerto del Carmen in the south of Lanzarote. The closest beach, Playa Chica, can be reached within a short stroll, while the Biosfera shopping centre is only 800 metres away. The centre of Puerto del Carmen with its bars, restaurants and nightclubs is just a short stroll away. Lanzarote International Airport can be reached within a short drive. Completely renovated in 2013, the village-style apartment complex with its typical white-washed architecture offers one- and two-bedroom apartments. They have a friendly and inviting interior design, and features include air-conditioning, flat-screen TV and complimentary WIFI. Younger guests will love the mini-club, the playground and the children's pool, while not-so-young guests will appreciate the outdoor pool, the fitness facilities and the chill-out club bar. A perfect place for a sunny holiday.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.

This was our second time staying here having been here the previous year. We really like this hotel due to its location and its size. The location won’t suit everyone due to the distance and hill to the strip and seafront especially in the heat of midday but there is always the option of a taxi. The hotel itself is generally quite quiet even at peak times of the day, the restaurant is small and has a limited choice but what it does have is always well prepared and there is a variety across the week. I would suggest if you have any mobility issues then this is not the hotel for you due to it being on split levels and distance from the strip. The pool area has limited beds and these get reserved very early even though they are not meant to be. The evening entertainment is ok but nothing special, you have to consider that this is not comparable to some of the bigger hotels so it won’t have all the same facilities. The rooms are quite basic but give you everything you need with a small kitchenette, tv and wifi. The found the staff to be very pleasant on both of our trips. We will continue to return to this hotel if we are staying in PD Carmen.
This hotel is one of the best on the island from staff to food and cleanliness it’s excellent the new guy on pool entertainment is just brilliant so we have books our sixth visit before leaving ! I counted twenty familiar faces and we even got together for a night out ! Highly recommend Gloria Izaro
Good location, comfortable beds, Half board - good choice for Breakfast & dinner. Entertainer was good, with both daytime & evening entertainment. No problem getting a sun lounger. Friendly staff
Love this place! We travel off peak when there are very few kids around, which suits us. It's located up a fairly steep hill from the oldtown but there are plenty of cheap busses and taxis around if you don't fancy the walk. Staff throughout are friendly and helpful. Couldn't praise them highly enough. Accommodation consists of Bedroom, bathroom and Livingroom with a small kitchen area and seating area, complete with TV which currently has UK channels among other non English ones. Free Wi Fi which we find can sometimes be a bit weak. Has aircon which is great. Ground floor rooms have a small patio area out front with table chairs and small pullout clothes rack. Upstairs rooms have a balcony with same. Quiet relaxed atmosphere around the complex with sunbeds around the pool but also has sunbeds/a solarium away from the pool area. Buffet breakfast has just about everything you could ask for, whether continual or full Irish/English, with a chef in attendance to cook you a fresh omelette. Always plentiful and always excellent. Evening meal also a self serve buffet with a chef in attendance to cook you a fresh steak/fish or carve you something from the nightly roast. Always plenty of variety, salads, fish, chicken, rice, veg etc. There are plenty of restaurants down the old town if you feel like a change of evening meal and a nice brunch place just around the corner if you miss the breakfast cut off time. There's a local bus stop just around the corner for the airport, Playa Blanca, Arrecife etc. Beach and local shopping centre within walking distance, with a decent local supermarket and pharmacy close by. Not the cheapest place to stay in Lanzarote, but we like what we get for our money. We have probably been here 8/10 times by now and are returning again in early December, which is about the best recommendation I can give.
Lovely relaxing holiday. From arrival to departure. Staff can not do enough for you they are polite, helpful and friendly. Apartment was a good size, clean and cleaners came in everyday. Sunbeds were available when we wanted them at beginning of day. However some towels were on first thing and no one came until pm or not at all. Not really fair to do that if you do not intend to use them! The entertainment on on an evening was of a good standard. Just 2 days when no entertainment. The young man who did poolside entertainment eas a joy to watch and kept us sll entertained with his acrobatics. He never stopped smiling and invited people to join in activities during the day and doing night-time quizzes before main entertainment. He did not hassle anyone to join in but politely asked. Pool, darts, archery, football etc. Excellent 10/10 for him alone. Every member if staff we came across at this hotel gave brilliant service. Reception staff available to help with sny queries. Food breakfast and evening meal plenty of choice at both meals. If anything food could have been a bit hotter at times. Thank you everyone this was our first visit hopefully not our last. It was at top of a hill but steady stroll up the hill with shops was not a problem. The road from marina was very steep but coming up the other way by the shops was ok.
