We have travelled with Ocean Club Holidays before to Lanzarote, but we didn't quite know what to expect with this holiday. The flight takes about 5 an a half hours but is OK. You need to get a visa on your arrival and, depending on how quickly you get off the plane it can take a little while to get all the paperwork sorted out.
We took a taxi from the airport to the town of Santa Maria. This took about 15 minutes and was very cheap (about £8).
The apartments at Porto Antigo are beautiful. We had one with a pool and beach view and it was fantastic. As we sat on our patio, the pool was just in front of us and the beach just beyond that - heaven! The area around the pool is well maintained and there are plenty of sunbeds to be had. The pool is super and never crowded. The apartments are well kitted out and have everything you really need. There is regular maid service.
There is a piano bar/restaurant just on the harbour wall and that was a nice place for a drink and meal. There are a few nice restaurants nearby, Tam Tam's is very good and the staff there are terrific. Fish and seafood are the main menu items but there are limited meat dishes to be had.
The beaches are beautiful white sand and the sun shines all the time. There is usually quite a breeze and do be careful as you can burn very easily.
This place is really a beach/water sports lover and is a great place for someone who wants to get off the treadmill for a while. I suggest you book now rather than leave it too long and it becomes over developed and too touristy!
All in all a great holiday.
