Thailand might be the land of smiles and rightly so , well a little closer to home in Matagorda in Lanzarote is the Lava Beach hotel “THE HOTEL OF SMILES “ What a wonderful stay my wife Vera and I had made possible not just by the quality of the venue but by the forever “SMILING” staff everyone seemed to have a goal ….a pursuit of excellence !! From general manager Nicole and next in command Stella to the reception the bar staff the ladies cleaning the fabulous rooms and not least the waitresses who certainly could multitask if moving at pace and always smiling is a consideration. My many thanks to you all and will see you in November Alex (Sander) Ralston

Stayed in this gorgeous hotel on the 16th Mar (room 1327) for a week, and wished we’d booked for two. This really is a 5 star hotel, from the greeting you get at reception, the cleanliness and décor, the grounds are immaculate and the staff are so friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. The rooms are exactly as they are in the photo gallery, and the beds are so comfortable you won’t want to get up in the morning. There are plenty of sunbeds and parasols and the activity programme is brilliant and varied if you have the energy to join in. There is also access through the gardens to the promenade which stretches from Arrecife to Puerto del Carmen for those that like a long walk or run. I walked every morning, so I didn’t feel guilty at breakfast as the food was amazing, plenty of choice and lovely fresh produce. Already booked a return trip in June.…

Lovely hotel in Lanzarote. Clean modern rooms. Friendly staff throughout (reception, bar, resteraunt). Breakfast was good, always tables and food available with lots of variety on offer. The lunch menu was good too, providing nice “snack” food by the pool. The rooftop bar has a beautiful view of the sunsets (just a shame it’s not open every night). Only slight downside is the location - being out of the Puerto del Carmen town centre however it was easy and reasonably priced to get a taxi into town. Also very accessible walks if you’re up for the long walk! Would definitely visit again.

Lovely hotel. Extremely clean and very modern. Friendly staff who were very attentive. (That could be to do with the time of year we went) Rooms were beautiful and exactly as they look in the photos. They also have a rooftop bar which was an added bonus with fantastic views. Breakfast has everything you could want. Would definitely go here again. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Stayed at the Lava Beach hotel for 11 nights in room 1433fom 13 March. This is standard room with west facing balcony, it was well equipment, very clean with plenty of storage facilities, lots of hangers and large double drawer beside tables. We had a couple of issues which were quickly resolved once brought to the hotels attention. The room safe would not remember our personal code and this was fixed with 10 minutes by a new battery. Not sure who chose the two bathroom sinks which can not be filled with water (no overflows and no plugs of any kind), a problem when you are trying to wet shave. A maintenance man attached several rubber gaskets to one of ours sink so that the faux plug could be screwed down. The buffet breakfast offers a vast selection of choice and so did the evening buffet with many quality items for you to chose from, not too sure about the faux plants in the ocean restaurant. The swimming pool and terraces, sunbeds, parasols and gardens are very well kept and its always possible to get sunbeds and parasols at any time while we were there (the hotel was completely full). The service at the pool bar was always helpful, charming and we applaud the lovely smiling Natalie. The hotel had direct access to the promenade where there are beaches, many restaurants, bars and cafes, so the location is excellent and is only 10-15 minutes from the airport. …

We had a wonderful stay at the Lava Beach. Although initially disappointed with our room, Christine on reception was very accommodating, moving us to a much better room after a couple of nights. The whole hotel is spotlessly clean, very stylish and pleasant. The breakfast is plentiful, something for all tastes. We only ate in the main restaurant on one occasion. It was pleasant, the normal buffet style hotel restaurant, we prefer a more intimate space, but if you like a buffet you won’t be disappointed. The only negative was our experience in the Aroma restaurant which we have reviewed separately. The pool is great, plenty big enough if you want to do some serious swimming! Loads of sun beds, available all day. The pool bar serves a nice range of snacks and drinks, we were mostly served with a big smile by Delores.…

My wife and I have just returned from a 10 night stay at this hotel and had a very enjoyable stay. The location of the hotel is perfect, being on the sea front with both Matagorda centre and Los Pocillos centre close by but far enough away so the hotel was very peaceful. Our room was really and had everything you will need. It was very modern and clean with a large balcony/terrace containing a sun lounger and two very comfortable chairs, plenty of storage and a lovely modern bathroom. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis and the breakfast was varied with plenty of choice to suit all tastes. The dining room was really nice with plenty of space both indoors and outside to comfortably cater for all guests. The hotel has daytime activities, although can’t comment on these as we did not participate in any of them. Also, there is evening entertainment that seemed to be a good standard, we did not actually see much of it as it was finished by around 10.00pm and as we were bed and breakfast we were normally out at the local restaurants. The area around the hotel is very nice and there are some good walks but I have to say that the quality of the bars and restaurants in the area was not that good, although I must mention O’Horreo restaurant, which we found to be excellent and visited a few times. We also thought that Casa Kike and Timbayba were quite good as well. Now, I am nit picking here but the hotel is 5* and a couple of things I want to point out. I felt that the quality and the standard of cooking the hot options at breakfast could be much better and also, the quality and comfort of the bed should be better, remembering this is a 5* hotel. Overall, this is an excellent hotel and all the staff are fantastic, friendly and efficient. The above minor niggles would not stop us from staying here again and I would definitely recommend this hotel if visiting the Matagorda area.…

After a disasterous choice of hotel, at which we only managed to suffer two nights, the Lava came to our rescue. What a fantastic hotel, a proper hotel that actually lives up to its 5 star rating. From the moment we stepped into the reception area, to the moment we departed, the whole experience was an absolute pleasure. The staff were professional and uber proficient at every juncture. The room was fabulous, the breakfast was excellent. The pool was lovely and absent of any rowdy "party" people. The garden planting was fresh and a joy to see. A special shout out to Christine and Christina who could not have been more helpful. If you want a quite, relaxing, smart, modern hotel, and to feel like you have actually got what you are paying for, then this is the place for you. Can't wait to come back.…
