Ocean view has a 25 meter square south facing terrace which has a BBQ, garden dining furniture and 2 sun loungers with breathtaking views out across the ocean. The terrace is half covered, so offers some shade and at the same time is the perfect place to sunbathe in total privacy.
A car is not essential for stays at this holiday apartment, as all the amenities you will need are within walking distance, this apartment is just a stone's throw from the beach bars, restaurants and variety of shops. But if you wish to take advantage of a hire car to explore all that Lanzarote has to offer, then there is plenty of parking nearby.

Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
Having stayed at the splendid Finca de Arrieta for a few nights we finished our holiday in this magnificent apartment. It’s the sort of place you could hold a drinks reception for 100 people in - it feels very spacious - and so we coped especially well as a family of four with everyone sleeping very well, which is very rare. It is really well furnished (stylish and useful), well equipped, near the right things, and the sun terrace let’s you lord it over the smaller tasteful houses beneath and the sandy bay beyond.
We now know exactly what type of accommodation we want on our next holiday and it looks like this one. Maybe we will just have to come back.
What also made it for us were the Lanzarote Retreat staff who got everything just right, from making our children welcome to efficiently transferring us to and then from Arrieta and then the airport.
We didn’t think we would like Costa Teguise fearing it had an element of Brits abroad about it, but were pleasantly surprised. It has a lovely calm atmosphere, plenty of good eating options and a good soul to it. The town is family-friendly and the beach and promenade are clean, well looked-after and currently being improved further. You are also well located for the North of the Island which we spent three happy days touring while in Arrieta.

Our favourite place to stay in Lanzarote
We have just returned from another brilliant 2 week stay at the Oceanview Penthouse Apartment in Costa Teguise. Whilst there, we were treated to an incredible Airshow by the Eagle Patrol (Patrullo Águila) - Spanish equivalent of our Red Arrows - celebrating 600 years since Teguise was made capital of Lanzarote!! The display took place right in front of the Apartment - so we had front row seats from the huge balcony!
We had a couple of rainy days - usually only lasted a little while, but otherwise lovely and warm with no wind and lots of sunshine.
What we like best about the Apartment is that it has a beautiful sea view and is close to all the best eating places in Costa Teguise, giving you a huge choice. The Apartment itself is enormous and comfortable with everything you need included.
As usual, the staff at Lanzarote Retreats were lovely and more than helpful - they have become like our holiday extended family, but we were sad to see Clare leave - we will miss her!
Also, a big thank you to Tila for taking us to the Airport and helping us to the Assisted Passage counter - made it so much easier for us!
We hope to be back very soon!

Fantastic apartment with great views
The apartment's spacious terrace has great views and being close to local amenities has a nice ambiance.
Within a short distance there are a number of excellent restaurants (the apartment overlooks 2 of them) and the beach.
The town centre is no more than a 5 minute walk away.
This was our third visit to this apartment and we would have no hesitation in booking again.
Also, just a mention, the Lanzarote Retreat's staff are close at hand and were excellent in handling everything we required - Thank you for a great holiday.

Great stay at Ocean View Penthouse
We loved the location of the Ocean View Penthouse - allowed us to relax in peace but also venture to the beach and the ocean when we wanted to. The accommodation was spacious and quiet and we would definitely go back in the future. We love Teguise, especially the dining ! Our accomodation added to a lovely break and thank you to Michelle, Clare and the team for helping us along the way !

You are quite right, it is perfectly situated for days at the beach and evenings enjoying some of the superb restaurants within walking distance in Costa Teguise.
I am really pleased that the actual apartment met with your approval. It is such a wonderful space and the views over the ocean are superb from the large terrace area.

Ultimate Relaxing Break
We have just returned from a 3 week stay at Oceanview Penthouse Apartment for the third year in a row. We loved every moment of our holiday as we had everything we needed on our doorstep - good restaurants, car hire and a beautiful view of the Ocean, which is only a few steps away from the Apartment. The balcony is unbelievable as it has a dining area, day bed and loungers and is very protected from the wind.
The owners and staff of Lanzarote Retreats are extremely cheerful and helpful! Thank you Clare for all the info and advice re places of interest etc. and thanks to Michelle, Karen, Sabina, for help in general. We have already booked another 2 week break for October to get some sun before the long, cold UK winter arrives! THANK YOU ALL!!

Relaxing holiday with fantastic views
Great location with fantastic views.
The balcony is in the sun from sunrise to sunset with more than enough room for sunbathing.
The apartment has a couple of restaurants and bars in the same square (with the restaurants La Tabla and Las Maretas and the wine bar 'Eatalia' being highly recommended by ourselves.
The town centre is only a short walk (a few minutes) and the beach is only a couple of hundred yards away.

Summer holidays
Apartment was nice and spacious and bright. Great size sun terrace and view of the beach/resort was fantastic. All kitchen utensils required available.
Everything was good but must say the bedding was of the budget kind and made of wood which was extremely noisy when shuffling round in bed at night and could be upgraded to a more sound/quieter bed.
Staff are great to deal with and airport pick up was an added bonus.

Awesome penthouse!
I booked the penthouse for a week for five of us having been met at the airport by a lovely young man he offered us a cold bottle of fizz, when arriving at our destination he helped take our bags upstairs to the penthouse where we were all blown away it was absolutely stunning it has got three very comfortable king size beds and all facilities for self catering. The only suggestion I would make is the bedroom with the stairs in maybe put a hand rail up to make you aware in the night that there are stairs close to the bed but overall we had a fantastic holiday in fantastic accommodation.

Perfect relaxing Holiday
We booked to stay at the Ocean View Penthouse Apartment again after I had a stroke just before Xmas. We couldn't have wished for a more perfect place to stay to meet all our needs.
We were met at the Airport by Tila (the owner) and his son Jerome, who couldn't have been more helpful - we had a lovely glass of cold bubbly on our drive to the Apartment which was most welcome. Tila then took us to meet the wonderful staff in the office of Lanzarote Retreats - from then on we were spoiled with help and advice about everything we required. I was very nervous about the holiday as it was my first trip since the stroke, but I did exactly what was ordered by my doctor and physio team - just relaxed as we sat on the HUGE balcony overlooking the ocean. There are loads of brilliant restaurants within walking distance, which was very handy as I was using a wheelchair at the time!! We sat on the balcony in the evenings and just enjoyed the view.
The office staff are fantastic if you need help of any sort - Peta helped with hiring the wheelchair, and Michelle (owners wife) was always on hand for any queries we had. We also got to meet Montse who was an absolute delight - she is having a baby towards the end if the year and we shared her excitement when she found out she was having a little girl. She took us to view one of their other properties (The Beach House) which is close by and she was very helpful with any questions we had!
The Apartment is properly cleaned once a week when the linen and towels are changed. The kitchenette is well equipped and the cooker is in good working order, as is the washing machine.
We were then collected by Alan at the end of our three week stay - again we couldn't have wished for better service. Alan even took us to the Airport door to show us where to go for the Assisted passage!
We were very sad to say goodbye to Costa Teguise after a perfect holiday and we will certainly be returning next year if not sooner!
