Cactus, Puerto Del Carmen Overview
Cactus is located in Puerto Del Carmen, Spain. Rated 9.2 out of 10 based on 1,095 guest reviews.
Cactus is a calm adults-focused base in Puerto del Carmen, Spain, set at Calle Barqueta 4 in the Apartamentos Cactus area. The property suits travelers who want privacy and an easy routine: after a day on Lanzarote, you can return to air-conditioned comfort, use the kitchen setup in your unit, and unwind outdoors on the terrace. A shared swimming pool and solarium add to the laid-back rhythm, while BBQ facilities are a practical touch for evenings when you want to eat in. Non-smoking rooms and express check-in/check-out help keep stays smooth, especially if you’re arriving late or moving on quickly.
Guest feedback is consistently strong, with the hotel scoring 9.2/10 from 1,095 reviews. Many reviewers mention the overall quiet feel and the sense that the apartments are set up for self-sufficient trips, including road-trip friendly planning thanks to free parking on site. Others highlight how helpful the tour desk can be when mapping out day trips around the island.
If you’re comparing areas, Cactus is well placed for reaching the Puerto del Carmen beachfront and the town’s dining strip, while still feeling removed enough to relax. From here, Rancho Texas Lanzarote Park is about 7 km away, Timanfaya National Park is roughly 20 km by road, and the César Manrique Foundation in Tahíche sits around 18 km from the property. For couples and solo travelers who prefer apartment-style independence rather than constant hotel services, Cactus is a strong fit.
