We loved this hotel. Wanted to visit Lanzarote but didn’t want a big resort The room was fine, the staff excellent and so charming and helpful especially Belfar , Michele and Livio. Belfar in particular went above and beyond and sorted us a private guided trip to Timanfaya etc at very little more than group tours . Thank you x Loved the quiet. Loved the pool. I have seen comments about lack of staff but for a 14 room hotel there were a good number of staff. Yes occasionally we had to wait but hey, on holiday and not the end of the world Thank you to everyone at Villa Vik for making our stay so lovely.

Place was very dated, under staffed, and long in the tooth.

This was by no stretch of the imagination a 5 star hotel. Rooms, furnishings, amenities, linens, towels, etc. were all acceptable for a 3 star hotel, but five is absurd. While the hotel's website says 5, the front says 4, and even that is such an exaggeration, I plan to notify the tourist authorities.

I was welcomed with a glass of cava at check in and after paperwork wss completed, shown to my room upstairs. The room was well appointed with a bottle of chilled cava in the ice bucket and a basjet of fresh fruit items. The doors opened up to the large balcony overlooking the pool area and sea beyond. The bathroom was well stocked with separate toilet with bidet. The room was cleaned during the day with a turn down service at night. The inclusive breakfast had hot items cooked to order as well as fresh fruit, meats and Canarian cheeses as well as bread, fresh pastries, yogurts and cereals served with freshly squeezed orange juice and hot drinks. The food was excellent and all staff were warm and friendly. Lovely walk from the Villa along the coastline to Arrecife or Playa Honda.

Lovely spacious room in lovely relaxed hotel. Extremely friendly and engaging staff. Only suggestion is that they could do with tea or coffee making facilities in the room.

Villa Vik was a great place for a peaceful holiday with excellent accommodation, food and staff. Swimming in the pool was a real pleasure. Our only reservation was that there were too few staff on duty; often it appeared that just one person had to set tables, staff reception and serve drinks at the bar / pool. They did so cheerfully and helpfully but were stretched.

Quiet, great sevice, great accomodation and food - and Belfa

Lovely stay was a tad disappointed with room as on line photos were misleading ie suite photos are shown and not bog standard room. Didn't spoil my stay as everything else was spot on staff are amazing work so hard

We found this lovely hotel very pleasing, the staff were very efficient and friendly. The ambience around the pool and bar area was very relaxing.We spent a very pleasant and carefree week at this very agreeable small hotel. We would be happy to return.

This is a very quiet and tranquil hotel no hustle or bustle. Just the place t o recharge your batteries. There is a lovely sea front very close to the hotel and one can walk briskly or stroll towards the town. The staff are always trying to please you and make your stay enjoyable. The menu , though limited is nicely cooked and presented. Sadly some of the guests smoked in the semi enclosed area near the dining room.

Spent 4 nights here and really enjoyed it. Staff couldn't do enough for us and despite a few previous negative reviews about the food, we found it to be tasty and well presented. Breakfast was excellent, evening meal choices were however usually limited to 3 starters and 3 mains - no surprise in an hotel of just 14 rooms though! Our bedroom was well appointed and the free Wi-Fi in both bedrooms and reception area worked well. Our twice-daily maid service was thorough and our room was kept spotlessly clean. Choice of TV channels was poor - but not a deal-breaker for us. You definitely need a car when staying here as there is little within walking distance to visit. As stated, the hotel is situated in a residential area, so may not be for everyone.

We were fortunate to have been allocated the best room In the hotel which was beautiful and spacious with a fantastic balcony and jacuzzi looking out across the garden to the sea. All the staff were eager to please and warm and friendly. The decor was complimented with interesting and aesthetically pleasing art. Whilst the menus were limited in choice the quality was good for the size of hotel. The free bike hire was an unexpected benefit too.

Staff were always willing and smiling.Nothing was too much trouble. Hotel is very comfortable.

Being such a relatively small Hotel it was like staying in a private Villa. In a quiet residential location the skillfully laid out poolside areas allow privacy or a more communal experience where you can chat with other guests if you so desire. The staff are good humoured and friendly and made one feel very at ease, the service good but relaxed without the tip seeking over attentiveness one can experience elsewhere. Worth the slightly higher price for an up market experience.

Very pleasant small hotel - more of a 'villa with staff'.

Wonderful staff & personal service. Quiet location & perfect if you want to get away from the hustle & bustle, but plenty of bars & restaurants within walking distance. However, although indicated as 5 star it is not that and I think someone used to 5-star hotels would come away disappointed, but it is a very good 4-star. The one area that does let the hotel down is the food, it is of a pretty poor standard and you are better off just having breakfast and then eating out

Not truly a 5 star but very good4 need to upgrade the menu

Hotel has only 14 rooms all excellently maintained and cleaned daily including new sheets etc and towels. Towels were also changed in the evening if used. Small staff, very discreet, and capable. Excellent meals with choice of 4 starters, 3 mains and 4 desserts including cheese. Wine and drinks reasonably priced, clearly displayed on the wine list. Excellent local wines also available. Recommended. Gardens and pool area well maintained although the jacuzzi was not filled, not a problem for us. Clean beach towels laid out each morning on the numerous sunbeds. Drinks served around the pool during the day. Although a bus could be taken to either the local capital town or beach area and tours could be arranged by the hotel, a car proved much more practical for sight-seeing, again arranged by the hotel.

The hotel is remote. It is a brisk 25 minute walk into Arrecife and a 30 minute walk in the opposite direction to Playa Honda. There are no bars or places any nearer than this. The hotel itself lacks any atmosphere, albeit the rooms and general setting are acceptable, but certainly not five star. Breakfast is poor, we had no bread for toasting or beans until we complained. Evening menu is restricted with a choice of three dishes only, often two fish and one meat. Quality of food was average. The staff were pleasant but obviously under pressure as management visited one day with a letter of complaint which seemed to put them all on edge.

Staying at the Villa Vik is like being invited to the home of friends. The staff are very friendly and helpful, but unobtrusive. The food was excellent. The hotel is in an area of exclusive villas and there are no tourist amenities, but that suits us. We walked miles in both directions along the promenade. We will be booking to return soon.
