The villa has an off-road parking space and a small gated porch area leading to the front door. There is a full information pack and tourist information, designed to help you make the most of your holiday.
The large lounge area has quality ratten leather furniture which gives a comfortable homely feel. There is a good selection of books, VCR and DVD's to watch on the TV which has SKY TV. There is a music centre and CD discs. There's a large picture window to the pool and double french doors to the patio area which has a clear and beautiful sea views. You will not want to leave! There is now even complimentary WIFI to use with your own laptops or other devices!
There are six comfortable sun loungers surrounding the 8 x 4 private pool.
Around the side of the property there is an outdoor eating area with a large table and seating for eight, this is covered over and well-lit - perfect for those warm evenings. Doors off this area lead to the utility room with washing machine, tumble drier, iron and ironing board and the kitchen area.
In the fully equipped kitchen you will find a dishwasher - no washing up on hols! There's a fridge freezer, microwave, kettle, four hob and cooker here.
Back to the hallway, there are three doors leading to the following - family bathroom with bath and hairdryer, two twin bedrooms with double wardrobes and windows to the pool area.
Upstairs the master suite is huge with a good quality double bed, windows with sea views, and an en suite bathroom. Double wardrobe with security safe and patio doors out to the impressive balcony area which has lovely teak table and chairs. You'll want to spend lots of time up here taking in the sea views and watching the sun go down with a glass of wine!
That's why Villa Marina should be the one for you!
A welcome pack is provided with tea/coffee/sugar/milk/orange juice/water and biscuits.
If you like Villa Marina and want to bring more people to join the fun why not consider the villa next door too - see Villa Elizabeth!
Faro is Spanish for Lighthouse and as its name implies that is just where Faro Park is. Adjacent to the lighthouse and on the southern most tip of Playa Blanca. Although a 7minute drive, or 1hour 20minutes walk out of Playa Blanca, Faro Park has its own charm.
The villas are located either side of a quiet road, and in well kept mature gardens, the surrounding area is one of natural beauty.
Faro Park is served by the local regular, reliable bus route, and for a euro or so, you can reach the village or venture further around the island. A taxi ride would cost around 3e to reach the village. Some holidaymakers drive out, park in the village and then get a taxi back after sampling the local vino! A head-clearing walk the next morning along the beachfront promenade to collect the car is a relaxing start to the day!
As there is an array of shops, bars and restaurants actually in Faro Park, you don’t have to venture out until you want to.
Within walking distance from any of the Faro Park Villas, you will find a commercial promenade.
There is a wide selection of places to eat and drink in, or take away. These include 4 English bars, a Spanish bar, a Chinese restaurant, and an English owned café where the baker cooks overnight a mouth-watering array of delights to sell the next morning.
There are 2 supermarkets, the bigger one of the two stocks nearly all that you need, apart from fresh meat and fish, although both are available frozen. As there is quite a community of English residents/villa owners in Faro Park, the shop sells some English produce too. No need to miss out on your English breakfasts though, either buy your ingredients there, or let one of the restaurants cook a full English Breakfast up for around 3.50e.
One of the beauties of Faro Park is the proximity to the sea, with the super promenade meandering along the sea front, all the way along to the new Marina. Although it would take some time to walk it, why not hire a bike and admire the view along the coastal path. There are lots of lovely places to stop and take shade from the sun whilst you gather your thoughts and refresh your senses.
Many of the Faro Park villas have incredible sea views, across to Bocaina straights to Fuerteventura. Regularly you will see ferries, cargo ships, fishing boats and occasionally cruise ships going by.
It’s a fantastic place to base your holiday, and although the rock pools and southern tip of the island waves are fantastic to watch, especially when the sun sets, it is strongly recommended not to venture on to the rocks or attempt to swim. The lighthouse is interesting to look at and again a perfect venue to watch the sunset. Do not be tempted to venture into the sea. The tide and waves can be dangerous.
Only a short drive away is some of the wonders of Lanzarote, The Timanfya Mountains, and Papagayo Beaches. The villages of Femes, El Golfo and Las Brenas, all with their own delights.

Just a quick note to say thanks again for all your help, ensuring another fantastic holiday. We enjoyed Marina and Elizabeth, both excellent villas, and the support from yourself and the whole MVP team was great - we'll be in touch again when it is time for our next break - it can't come round soon enough! From snowy, windy Perthshire (stuck in a blizzard between Prestwick and home) All the best

| We received great communication and information from Marie & Angie. Upon arrival the villa was amazing. Lots of special effort had been made to "wow" our toddler on arrival - but we were just as excited as he to see all the toys lad out. ! The MVP team were great. Many many thanks - especially for all the toys for Thomas and for the late checkout! |

Hi Marie and Angela,
Just a quick email to say thank you so much for all your help, the villa was fantastic and exceeded our expectations. Could you please pass on our thanks to the 2 housekeepers who came round on Wednesday, we were on our way to Timanfaya and they gave us some great advice on what to do when we were there. We did fill in the questionnaire before we left but I wanted to contact you ourselves.
We had an amazing time in Playa Blanca and are already planning our return trip!
Thanks again

We booked via Marie and it was all very easy and professional. We have stayed in Faro Park before and liked the area. The villa was very clean on our arrival and very well presented and equipped. It exceeded our expectations. All of the MVP team were very helpful. Villa Marina is impossible to improve on! I've never stayed in a villa that supplied hair straighteners before! |

We booked via the website and Marie was so helpful with ALL my questions. The booking process was very easy and simple. We booked Villa Marina for the location and sea view and this was perfect. The directions provided were clear and the villa was very easy to find. The cleanliness and presentation was perfect. Everything was thought about and was really clean and remained that way with regular visits for clean laundry, etc. It exceeded our expectations and everything we needed was here for us. Everyone was really friendly and helpful with recommendations for things in Lanzarote. It's a real plus we all spoke the same language too! We would definitely return and will recommend Villa Marina to our friends and family. |
