When you’re planning a family getaway, Lanzarote is often the first name on the list for a reason. Unlike its bigger cousins in the Canaries, Lanzarote has a “low-rise” charm that makes it feel safe, manageable, and incredibly welcoming for kids.
For 2026 and 2027, the island has doubled down on family luxury, moving away from simple “kids’ corners” to full-scale interactive worlds.
The island is essentially a giant, natural playground. Because much of the landscape is protected, you aren’t surrounded by high-rise concrete. Instead, you have wide, flat promenades (perfect for buggies) and golden sand beaches with shallow entries.
An all-inclusive deal here is a parent’s best friend. Between the “can I have an ice cream?” requests and the “I’m thirsty” every ten minutes, the costs of a standard holiday can spiral. By going all-in, you’ve already paid for the endless supplies of juice, snacks, and mid-afternoon treats.
Most family-focused resorts in Lanzarote also include professional entertainment, meaning while the kids are at the mini-disco, you might actually get ten minutes to finish a warm cup of coffee.
Gran Castillo Tagoro (Playa Blanca): This is the “Disney” of Lanzarote. It’s designed like a castle and features a “Kids’ World” that is arguably the best on the island.
Iberostar Selection Lanzarote Park (Playa Blanca): Recently renovated, this hotel offers “Star Camp” activities split by age group, ensuring your 12-year-old isn’t stuck doing finger painting with the toddlers.
H10 Suites Lanzarote Gardens (Costa Teguise): A legendary choice for families. It has a full-size pirate ship in the pool and some of the best-rated family suites for those who need a bit more space. Family Activities Beyond the Pool While the all-inclusive buffet is great, you have to take the kids to Timanfaya National Park. Seeing a guide pour water into the ground and watching it explode back as steam is a “science lesson” they’ll never forget. Also, don’t miss Rancho Texas Park for the splash zone and the sea lion shows.
