The yurt is set in a fabulous location of Eco Finca De Arrieta over looking the beach in the north east of the island. The Eco - Retreat occupies 30,000 square metres of spectacular scenery with views bordered by the sparkling ocean to one side and the black volcanic mountains on the other.
Finca De Arrieta is powered by the largest green energy system on the island, prides itself on offering ethically minded travellers the opportunity to enjoy a little luxury in their eco-lifestyle. Combine that with the charm of the nearby coastal village of Arrieta, the laid back atmosphere at the Finca offers any traveller the opportunity to discover an essence of the real Lanzarote.
Finca De Arrieta offers 10 different styles of accomodation, from a luxury villa to silk lined Mongolian Yurts, all beautifully and uniquely designed with Indonesian and Moroccan touches. The beautifully designed outdoor areas make the most of the warm climate. With sea and mountain views, solar powered pool and outdoor areas perfect for relaxation, each day at the Finca will be a unique holiday experience.
Younger visitors will be amused not only by collecting eggs from the free-range hens and meeting Mollie, our resident donkey, but also by letting off steam in the mini adventure playground with wooden "pirate" boat and sunken trampoline.
The costal location is a perfect setting for a relaxing peaceful holiday in the countryside with the beauty of being next to the sea. Arrieta beach and village are just a 5 minute walk away, the village has the beauty of being a traditional Canarian Fishing Village, however providing all of the amenities you may need like excellent restaurants, local supermarkets, bakery and sea front tapas bars. A wonderful place to holiday and experience the true Lanzarote life style.
This area of Lanzarote is fantastic for walking and mountain biking. Or maybe you just want to relax and read a good book next to the pool in peaceful surroundings.
Local activities include surfing, sailing, fishing, wind-surfing, tennis, cycling, horse riding, paragliding, golf, walking, mountain biking, and swimming.
About us
Lanzarote Retreats.com is a family run business which has been growing fast since summer 2007. Lanzarote Retreats is the creation of Tila and Michelle Braddock who wanted to offer a rural type accommodation mainly in and around Arrieta in the North of the Island where they live and love.
Arrieta is a traditional Lanzarote fishing village, a hidden jewel on the island, mainly un-discovered by tourists. It boasts wonderful sea front restaurants, quaint historic buildings and has a great beach for families, with a beach bar, play park and it is often great for body boarding and surfing.
They strive to offer you a personal service when booking and during your holiday in Lanzarote, as Tila and Michelle live at Finca de Arrieta they are always at hand for any information or help during your stay. Tila and Michelle are helped by Sarah who is based in their Costa Teguise office.
What we love about our business
Tila and Michelle have lived on Lanzarote for over 20 years and have bought up their 4 children here and been involved in Island life. The Lonely Planet guide book for the Canary Islands (4th Edition page 133 and 139) interviewed Tila and Michelle regarding Lanzarote and they feature along with Finca De Arrieta in the "Local Voices"section. They clearly love the island and therefore sharing it with those visiting the island through their holiday rental business.

Eco Luxury Yurt Suite from 3 reviews...

“The perfect place to go for complete relaxation...friendly, comfortable, gorgeous location, 2 pretty little villages by the sea nearby, only food shops, tavernas and some good restaurants, fab fish and seafood, beautiful sea. If you want the 'simple' but comfortable life without mass tourism and shopping malls, this is it.
The views of the mountains and the sea is fantastic from this yurt. Also may I point out the big, very comfortable beds.
This is a place for not just families with small children, we as a late middle age couple had the perfect chilled week. It was just what we had hoped for.

“We had one of the best holidays ever on Lanzarote! The Eco Retreat was perfect for our family of 4 (with kids ages 6 and 3) - mellow enough to give us the rest we wanted and stimulating for the kids with the trampoline, chickens, bunnies and my namesake Donkey Mollie. Our MUST DOs: Take a day trip to La Graciosa Jameos del Agua See the volcanoes at Timanfaya National Park Enjoy a variety of beaches (no two alike it seems) Explore Teguise Get to know Tila, Michelle and the great staff We stayed in the Yurt Suite which was plenty big for our family and then we transferred to the Penthouse in Costa Teguise for a change of scenery. Both suited us fine and we had ample room. We loved the Finca the best and would definitely go back (go solar!) to stay again. Thanks to all at Lanzarote Retreats for an unforgettable holiday.”

“It gives me great pleasure to write a review of Lanzarote Retreats. We booked a badly needed winter break with relatively short notice. I had challenged my partner Emma to find something unusual and luxurious; Boy did she ever come up trumps! I have honestly never stayed anywhere so well provided for on a self catering basis. We stayed in the yurt suite with our 6 month old baby Huw. On arrival at the airport, we were able to find the site with no difficulty, and were met by a beaming Tilla who led us up to our accommodation. He gave a very welcoming and informative first talk. We were amazed by just how well we were catered for with a young baby in tow. In fact, we could well have traveled much lighter than we did, because of all the excellent toys and equipment provided. We had only really been expecting a travel cot. There was enough supplies to keep us going until morning, and a couple of lovely surprises that we truly had not been expecting. The Yurt suite is a self contained space enjoying fabulous views of the mountains and the sea. Sunrise and sunset are really something to savor, framed by palm trees and the excellently designed outdoor spaces, which make staying in the suite so much more than a back to basics eco retreat. As the site is largely self sufficient energy and water-wise, you are able to understand what a lower impact lifestyle could be like,without feeling that you'd short changed yourself in the holiday department. We chose to largely do our own thing in the time we had, but every recommendation from Tilla and Michelle has been carefully considered to add to the experience of your stay. My recommendation is take their advice, these are people who know and love the island, and really want you to get the most out of your stay. They managed to always keep us feeling welcomed, but never intruded upon, and could not have been more helpful when a work related issue raised its head. I heartily recommend having an evening out with them. They are great fun to chat to and genuinely lovely people, who are exactly right to be running this kind of venture. This has been one of our very best holiday experiences, which we hope to repeat in the not too distant future.”
