Volcanic Adventures Worth Leaving the Resort For

Timanfaya National Park: Nicole described this brilliantly: "The views from here are breathtaking for two reasons, one being that it really is absolutely stunning and amazing but the other is because we were on a coach and there were no walls or barriers up on the windy, twisty road up the volcano!"

They've got El Diablo Restaurant where "meat and vegetables are cooked on an open furnace over the volcanic rock with the heat of the volcano which is around 300 degrees." Even with all inclusive, this experience is worth the excursion!

Cueva de los Verdes: This was Nicole's favourite, with her saying her "favourite things about the trip were the Cuevo de los Verdes, I cant explain how magical the experience was! The contrast of the colours in the tunnel due to the layers of rock was awesome. The tunnel also harbours a secret which we apparently are not allowed to tell anyone about for fear of a torturous death according to our guide, Tobias!"

Food & Wine Experiences Beyond All Inclusive

Jameos del Agua: Nicole highly recommends becasue "its such an experience to have a meal in the cavern."

Even with all inclusive at your resort, this UNESCO site offers a unique dining experience in a volcanic cavern designed by César Manrique. Budget around €30-€40 per person for a memorable three-course lunch.

La Geria Vineyards: Nicole visited and loved it: "Such wines are crisp and refreshing, perfect for enjoying on a hot summer or even winter's day...and are absolutely delicious if I say so myself!"

Wine tasting tours cost €10-€20 and showcase Lanzarote's unique Malvasía wines grown in volcanic ash – a perfect afternoon excursion from your all inclusive resort.

Booking All inclusive lanzarote holidays: Insider Tips

When to Book for Best Value

Early Bird Strategy (4-6 months ahead):

• Best resort and room selection
• Lower prices on peak dates
• Better flight times
• Connecting rooms for families guaranteed

Last Minute Opportunities (2-4 weeks before):

• Genuine bargain deals
• Perfect for off-peak travel
• More limited room choice
• Can be risky during school holidays

Lisa from Ireland discovered: "My self and my husband and 3 kids are going to Lanzarote, I got a call off Róisín and she was very helpful. I even got a better price than online 😊"

That's the thing about booking all inclusive Lanzarote holidays through Budget Travel – we often beat online prices with exclusive allocations you won't find anywhere else.

School Holidays & Mid-Term Strategy

Best Times for Irish Families:

October Mid-Term: Absolute winner! Weather's still gorgeous (22-24°C), prices haven't hit winter peak, and all inclusive resorts are less crowded. Book by August for best selection.

February Mid-Term: Perfect for escaping Irish winter. Still 18-20°C in Lanzarote – that's shorts weather! All inclusive means no worrying about restaurant bookings during busy mid-term week.

Easter Break: Gets pricey but worth it. Book by January minimum. All inclusive packages help manage costs during expensive peak season.

Summer Holidays: Most expensive time, but all inclusive helps control spending. Book before March if possible. Direct flights from Dublin make logistics easier with kids.

Nicole noted: "The weather is steadily 20 degrees all around with roughly 350 out of 365 days of sun" – meaning any time is good for all inclusive Lanzarote holidays!

Standard vs Premium All Inclusive: Worth the Upgrade?

Nicole's Verdict: "The Prestige package was absolutely worth it – the quality difference is massive, and you really feel pampered."

Budget Travel's Advice: For couples or special occasions, upgrade to premium. For families with young kids who won't use à la carte restaurants, standard is usually fine.

FAQs about all inclusive lanzarote holidays

Are all inclusive Lanzarote holidays good value for money?

Absolutely! All inclusive Lanzarote holidays offer excellent value, especially for families. You'll typically spend €70-€100 per person daily if paying as you go (meals, drinks, snacks, entertainment). All inclusive packages work out cheaper and eliminate budget stress. As Raymond said: "I booked a week in Lanzarote and it was great value...no hassle thanks to budget travel."

What's included in all inclusive Lanzarote holidays?

Standard all inclusive includes buffet meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner), local drinks (beer, wine, spirits, soft drinks), snacks, pool/beach access, entertainment, and kids' clubs. Premium packages add à la carte dining, international drinks, minibar, spa access, and better amenities. Nicole experienced Prestige level, and enjoyed a "fully stocked mini bar, Nespresso machine, Clarins amenities, complimentary access to the spa and Thalasso."

Can you leave all inclusive resorts in Lanzarote?

Yes! All inclusive means food and drink are included at your resort, but you're free to explore. Nicole visited Timanfaya National Park, Cueva de los Verdes, and La Geria vineyards – all worthwhile excursions. Most guests enjoy their all inclusive resort but take 2-3 excursions during the week to see volcanic attractions.

Are drinks included in all inclusive Lanzarote holidays?

Yes! All inclusive packages include unlimited local beer, wine, spirits, soft drinks, juice, tea, coffee, and water during specified hours (typically 10am-midnight). Premium packages include international brands, cocktails, fresh juices, and sometimes 24-hour service. Minibar drinks may be extra on standard packages but included on premium.

Is all inclusive better than self-catering in Lanzarote?

For families, all inclusive is usually better value and stress-free. You know exact costs upfront and don't worry about daily budgets. For couples wanting flexibility or food lovers exploring local restaurants, self-catering offers more freedom. Rebecca booked last minute: "apartments were lovely and clean, exactly as described" – both options work depending on your style!

Do all inclusive resorts in Lanzarote have kids' clubs?

Yes! Most all inclusive Lanzarote resorts include kids' clubs for ages 4-12 with entertainment, games, and activities. Some also have teen zones and baby-sitting services (may cost extra). Nicole's hotel had "an extensive day and night entertainment programme" – perfect for keeping everyone happy!

How long is the flight to Lanzarote from Ireland?

Direct flights take approximately 3 hours 50 minutes from Dublin. Nicole flew with Aer Lingus: "The flight departed on time and took 3 hours 50 minutes direct from Dublin." You can leave Ireland after breakfast and be at your all inclusive resort by lunchtime!

What's the weather like in Lanzarote?

Nicole confirmed: "The weather is steadily 20 degrees all around with roughly 350 out of 365 days of sun." Winter averages 17-20°C, summer hits 24-29°C. Guaranteed sunshine makes all inclusive Lanzarote holidays perfect year-round – unlike unreliable European destinations!
