About the hotel
Situated in Playa Blanca on Lanzarote's southern coastline, MYND Yaiza occupies a relaxed setting approximately 800 metres from Playa Dorada and within easy reach of the resort town's restaurants, shops and waterfront promenade. The property is surrounded by low-rise buildings, landscaped gardens and the island's characteristic volcanic scenery. Its location provides convenient access to Marina Rubicón and the beaches of southern Lanzarote, while the wider island offers dramatic landscapes shaped by centuries of volcanic activity. The atmosphere is informal and contemporary, combining coastal leisure with opportunities for outdoor exploration.
Opened in December 2022, MYND Yaiza emerged from the complete renovation of the former Sun Park apartment complex, introducing a contemporary four-star hospitality concept to Playa Blanca. Developed by Canarian Hospitality, the property reflects the MYND brand's emphasis on flexible travel, local experiences and environmental responsibility. Its layout separates accommodation and leisure facilities into two distinct environments: Family Space, designed around children's activities and shared experiences, and Relax Zone, intended for quieter stays. Sustainability initiatives include reduced resource consumption, responsible housekeeping programmes and support for the Foresta Foundation's environmental projects.
The hotel comprises 298 guestrooms and suites according to the operator's published fact sheet, distributed across eight low-rise buildings. Contemporary interiors favour light colours, natural textures and functional furnishings, with accommodation designed for different travelling styles. Eleven room categories are currently advertised, ranging from 25-square-metre Double and Triple Rooms to larger Junior Suites, interconnected Family Rooms and 38-square-metre Superior Suites. Selected ground-floor rooms feature terraces with direct access to shared swimming pools, while premium suites introduce private gardens and swimming pools. Modern amenities include air conditioning, comfortable bedding, rainfall showers and televisions with Chromecast connectivity.
Leisure facilities are distributed across the hotel's family and relaxation areas, with four outdoor swimming pools, children's waterslides and a dedicated splash park. ASANA Spa provides a quieter environment with a sauna, Turkish bath, hydrotherapy pool and personalised treatments. Active guests can use the ELGIM fitness centre, outdoor sports facilities and specialist cycling centre. Gastronomy follows a flexible approach, with Canarian-inspired dishes at LAMESA, international buffets at ELTENDERETE and casual refreshments at ALAGUA Pool Bar. The hotel's activity programme also incorporates family entertainment, fitness sessions and diving experiences through local partners.
MYND Yaiza appeals to families, couples, active travellers and visitors seeking a contemporary base for discovering Lanzarote. The separation between Family Space and Relax Zone allows different types of guests to enjoy the property at their preferred pace, while swim-up rooms and private-pool suites provide additional comfort. Families benefit from dedicated children's facilities, and cycling enthusiasts can explore the island's extensive road network and volcanic landscapes. Its combination of flexible dining, pet-friendly accommodation, wellness facilities and proximity to Playa Blanca's beaches creates an approachable alternative to the island's more traditional resort hotels.

Creator experience
“MYND Yaiza Lanzarote offered the perfect balance between relaxation and the vibrant spirit of the Canary Islands. I loved the hotel's contemporary design, laid-back atmosphere, and beautiful swimming pools that made it so easy to slow down and enjoy the sunshine. From peaceful mornings to exploring Lanzarote's incredible volcanic landscapes, every moment felt effortless. The welcoming atmosphere and thoughtful spaces made the entire experience feel refreshing, comfortable, and wonderfully connected to the island's unique character.”
