Macher Vacation Packages

Lots of space and clean

This was our second time at this hotel, having visited at the same time last year. As before we had a great stay for a week. There was initially a minor mix-up over our pick-up from the airport, which we had booked in advance. There was no car to meet and greet us as we had booked. But when we phoned the hotel, they quickly sorted it out by paying for a taxi there and then. Also when we arrived at reception, they gave us an upgrade from an ocean-view room to a deluxe suite with a private jacuzzi. Much more than we expected. So a great start to a great week. Everything about this small intimate hotel is excellent, the original eco-design, the rooms and facilities, the Kentia gourmet restaurant and cocktail bar, the locally-inspired planting and most of all the friendly helpful staff. They are all highly trained to give individual care and attention. The hotel was fully booked whilst we were there, so occasionally, the pool-bar staff became a little overwhelmed by guest requests. A simple solution would be at least 3 or 4 staff on duty during busy times or a dedicated pool boy/girl for sunbeds etc. A very minor fault in an otherwise perfect hotel. If you want 5 star in Lanzarote - La Isla Yel Mar is the place.

An exceptional stay - my husband and I could not fault this place - the staff are friendly, the facilities spotless and the location ideal for those who want a quiet holiday, although it’s under 10mins to walk to the seafront.

It’s our second stay here, absolutely fabulous. Spacious and beautiful big hotel, service given is perfect and the sea view rooms, well what a view ! We will be back

The staff were fantastic. The food assortment and quality was quite good and appeased even a finicky 7 year old.
