Finding the perfect holiday villa rental can become an exhausting search if you don’t first start with the basics. You first need to figure out exactly what you want in a holiday rental. Some people prefer a spacious place to stay for, while others prefer quaint and comfortable. Once you have established exactly what type of holiday rental you want, you can start your search by picking a location.

Location is important when trying to locate a discount holiday villa rental. Holiday villas vary greatly in price depending on where you go and when. If you can travel during the off-season, you are likely to find a better deal. Some great villa rentals are available at times you would least expect.

Holiday villas at locations whose focus is on the warm summer months can be found at a great discount during the winter months. There will still be a lot for you to enjoy, but you can do so with less crowds and for less expense.

Once you have decided on the location of your search next your need to set yourself a price scale. What are you prepared to pay for your perfect holiday villa rental? How much is the cost of living in the area you have chosen? You don’t want to put yourself in debt for a holiday.

Once you have decided your budget, stick to it. Your rental cost will just be one part of your total vacation cost, and you will want to make sure you have plenty of money left over to enjoy the rest of your trip.

When you have booked a villa in Lanzarote to rent to help you escape from the beach, then visiting Timanfaya Volcano Park is a must and might be top of your list if it is your first visit to the island.

It is described as being a lunar scene and that is really the impression that you do get as you look at fields of solidified volcanic lava that have been untouched since they were laid down. The area is now a protected park to help preserve this landscape.

When you reach the car park at the top of the visitor center there are plenty of uniformed guides to entertain you. They will demonstrate how a bucket of water emptied down into a bore hole erupts seconds later as steam, heated astonishingly quickly just by the temperature of the rocks below the ground. Another favorite demonstration is to stick some brushwood into the ground and then it is pulled out burning not long later.

There is also a guided coach tour from the visitor center that shows tourists a little more of the area and the rock formations. All of this makes Timanfaya, Fire Mountain, well worth a visit!

Costa Teguise can be found roughly centrally along the southern coast of Lanzarote, only around a twenty minute trip from the island’s airport and capital in Arrecife. The island’s traditional capital of Teguise is only about 10 to 15 minutes’ drive and is quiet, except during its weekly Sunday market, when many bargains and traditional items are to be discovered.

Costa Teguise was not originally a traditional village, but is a well built purpose built tourist resort. As such it is well laid out with shopping areas mingled around the various beaches and hotels. As with all of Lanzarote’s buildings, there are no high rise building in sight and a large choice of various holiday accommodation.

Sea diving is possible from the handful of English speaking BSAC and PADI diving schools, but only really experience dives are carried out as the local playa, Playa Jabillo, at only 5 metres deep is not sufficient for the majority of training. Most dive schools will run divers along to Puerto Del Carmen or for a different kind of dive, along to the lava caves of Mala.

On the main beach there are wind surfing schools and a vast area of sandy beach with the usual amenities and a shopping centre behind it. A lot of the hotels in the central area benefit from direct beach access. There is the only currently completed golf course on the island near to Costa Teguise.

Finding a Costa Teguise Villa is commonplace and there are an excellent choice of villas to choose from.

Or get yourself a vacation home :)
