“The Eco Fisherman’s Cottage is unique both in its style and location, it has a special place in the hearts of so many people who keep coming back. The Times Newspaper named it ‘the best seaside villa in Europe’ and our guests there seem to all agree.”
This quaint seafront fisherman’s cottage, situated in the authentic fishing village of Arrieta, in the municipality of Haria, is a perfect location to relax and enjoy the slow pace of this charming traditional fishing village.
Our Eco Fisherman’s Cottage was featured as one of the top 20 seaside stays in the travel section of The Guardian, “Classy beach cabins on Europe’s coasts” and voted “best seaside villa in Europe” in The Times.
This cottage is said to date back to being one of the first homes in Arrieta, it features a Canaries style balcony and has a fishing theme in keeping with its surroundings. As this holiday cottage is an important part of Arrieta’s history, Lanzarote Retreats has lovingly restored and kept original details such as its traditional Lanzarote style Canarian Courtyard. It is situated next to the slipway where local fishermen still launch their small, colourfully wood painted fishing boats. Adjacent to the cottage you can sit on the seafront and enjoy locally caught fish, or a selection of Tapas from a fantastic seafront restaurant. There are a variety of sea/beachfront restaurants all within walking distance from the cottage along with a well-stocked supermarket and a few small local shops.

Arrieta
The village of Arrieta has 400 inhabitants and is set in the northern municipality of Haria, the most traditional area of Lanzarote and ideal for the more independent traveller. This northern part of Lanzarote does not offer purpose-built resorts such as Costa Teguise, Puerto Del Carmen or Playa Blanca. Arrieta is a small traditional Canarian fishing village which has learnt to adapt to meet the demands of some low-key tourism. Among other things, the village offers wonderful sea front fish restaurants, a very good pizzeria take away and a supermarket. As with other villages in the north, Arrieta is peaceful, tranquil and is ideal if you are looking to be away from the neon lit bars and nightclubs found within the tourist resorts of Lanzarote.
Arrieta History
Arrieta is one of the prettiest and most authentic fishing villages to still exist in Lanzarote today. It remains unspoilt and there is a rustic charm to many of its historic houses and coastal alleyways. Eco Fishermans Cottage, set on the sea front village slipway was originally owned by local fishermen who lived there over 200 years. Each morning, you can still see local fishermen unload their catch and an early get up is rewarded by the most spectacular sun rise.
Arrieta Beach
Arrieta boasts a beautiful beach called “Playa de La Garita” which has fine golden sand and is 810m long. This beach has a restaurant and beach bar and also WC/showers, parking and play park. The waters generally remain calm throughout the year. There is also a smaller man-made golden beach which is just in front of the Eco Fisherman’s cottage. This is ideal for swimming or snorkelling.
La Garita Beach: Ideal for…….
surfing, body boarding, sunbathing, swimming, wave jumping, there are sheltered areas, child friendly and perfect for sand castles!

NeilWe had a wonderful week here. The fisherman’s cottage is a lovely place to stay. It is very comfortable and a lot of care has been taken to make it an enjoyable experience. We loved the outdoor shower and also the indoor bath where you can look out over the sea. It was also great to have our own outdoor courtyard where we could sit and sip wine in the beautiful warm evenings. We walked to Los cuevas Verde and Jameos del agua from the cottage, takes about 1.5 hours but a lovely walk. The team were fantastic and everything was arranged perfectly from picking us up at the airport to the trips we had booked. It was a real treat to be looked after so well. We particularly appreciated being given an Eco yurt to stay in for the few hours after we needed to check out from the cottage. A great holiday and we would highly recommend it!
Vanessa LCozy, quiet, beautiful, completely equipped, nothing missing, better even than expected. Being local myself, felt something quite unique being there.
