What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Despite its modernist silhouette, Lani’s Suites De Luxe isn’t entirely new: it was designed as an apartment building in the 1980s by the renowned local architect César Manrique, then fully revamped and turned into a luxe adults-only boutique hotel in 2015.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Avenida de las Playas runs right past the entrance, and the beach of La Peña del Dice sits directly below.

The rooms
Suites open onto private sea-facing terraces with dolphin-spotting binoculars, and sixteen add hydromassage jacuzzis in the open air.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated outdoor pool sits between stepped white terraces, lined with cushioned daybeds facing the ocean.
The spa
Therapists practice Kobido facial massage and Atlantic rituals using warm volcanic stones in wood-panelled treatment rooms.
Lani's Gourmet Restaurant
Terrace tables look over the beach behind glass railings, where dinner brings fresh cod and garlic prawns.
At the table
The open-air bar pours cocktails and chilled champagne throughout the day beside the sea-facing sun terrace.
How it began

Owner Kumar Dadlani originally planned a shopping center for the 1980s beachfront complex before turning it into a boutique hotel.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
