Rejuvanting Week in the Sun

Lindsay Garner on 04 March 2018
My husband and I went to the Barceló Teguise hotel in Lanzarote for his birthday in October - he turned 60 and does not celebrate with a party so we decided that we would escape any surprises and went away for a lovely weeks’ break in the sun.

This is an adult’s-only all-inclusive property - we normally do our own thing and tour but decided that we would just chill and relax - read and eat and sleep! We all need that at some point or another!

It was a lovely hotel - staff were very friendly and helpful and, although they didn't have a wealth of facilities on offer, it was just what we needed! We relaxed by the pools and just read books and had cocktails served us on request! They had a good spa and a gym and there were aerobics each morning either in the pool or outside the gym.

The rooms were lovely - beds very comfortable and clean and we had a top floor room with a Jacuzzi on the balcony - it was great to sit there in the evening and watch the sunset.

We did venture out for evening strolls and the area that we were in Costa Tequise had a variety of bars and restaurants that you could eat at - the shops were well stocked although too touristy for our tastes!

All in all, it was a great hotel in a good spot - not recommended for people that like lots to do - but for just relaxing and unwinding it was great!
