A free and excellent breakfast buffet is served daily at the restaurant, but there is no lunch or dinner service; some snacks and small bites are available at the poolside bar.

The 80-room Parque Tropical is a simple value apartment complex whose top selling point is location a block from the beach and Puerto del Carmen’s main drag. Apartments are spacious and comfortable, with fully equipped kitchens, ample living rooms with sofa beds, patios or terraces, and free Wi-Fi. The lack of air-conditioning in apartments may be an issue for some. There is a decent restaurant on-site serving international cuisine at reasonable rates, and a few small bites are available at the snack bar. The hotel’s two pools are pleasant and heated year-round, but the deck around them is smallish and there aren’t enough loungers for all guests. Those on a tighter budget may want to compare rates at Apartamentos Panorama, which is a little set back from the main drag and the beach, but has more contemporary decor.

Labranda Playa Club is a no-frills budget property whose top selling point is location, right off Puerto del Carmen’s main drag and a short walk from the beach. Its 138 one- and two-bedroom apartments are spacious, with separate living rooms with individual sofa beds, fully equipped kitchenettes, and furnished patios or terraces. Decor, though, is dated and basic in most, and there is no air-conditioning. The family and kiddy pools are pleasant and sunny, and can be heated in the winter, but guests have complained that there aren’t enough loungers for all in peak season. The small restaurant serves a basic breakfast buffet and a la carte lunches and dinners, and the poolside snack bar has a short fast food menu during the day. The small playground and laundry room are convenient features, but there is little else on-site. Costa Volcan Apartments are another good value option.

Blue Sea Los Fiscos is a basic, budget-friendly apartment complex located a 10-minute walk from the old town and its cute marina.

Complaints of uncomfortable beds are common, and some guests find the many extra fees (for safes, fans, in-room Wi-Fi, kitchen supplies) annoying.

The 341-room Sol Lanzarote is an upper-middle-range all-inclusive located right on Matagorda Beach and a five-minute walk from a few restaurants and bars.
