"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ H10 Suites Lanzarote Gardens: Our Second Visit, and Another Fantastic Holiday!
We arrived at around 3pm on Tuesday 27th October, just in time for the hotel's Halloween celebrations, and what a week we had!
We are a family of four: myself, my 4-year-old daughter, my Mum and my Auntie. We've previously stayed at H10 Rubicon Palace, H10 Suites Lanzarote Gardens (now twice!) and H10 Princess, so we've had the opportunity to experience three different H10 hotels in Lanzarote.
Out of the three, H10 Rubicon Palace is undoubtedly the most impressive in terms of the hotel itself and its facilities, but we felt it lacked when it came to children's entertainment and location. H10 Princess just didn't quite hit the mark for us. H10 Suites Lanzarote Gardens, however, offers the best all-round experience for our family, which is exactly why we chose to return!
🎃 HALLOWEEN WEEK & THE ANIMATION TEAM
I honestly cannot praise the animation team enough. The amount of effort, energy and enthusiasm they put into keeping both children and adults entertained throughout the week was incredible. There was always something happening, and they genuinely made the holiday special.
Here's a little rundown of what we enjoyed during our stay:
Tuesday 27th October
We arrived to find a games fair taking place around the pool, with tattoo painting, mini golf, higher or lower card games, magic tricks and various other activities. There was something for everyone, and both children and adults seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves.
The evening started with the Mini Disco, followed by the Animation Team's Hakuna Matata show. Every single child looked like they absolutely LOVED it!
Wednesday
Pumpkin decorating was organised for both children and adults. Everyone was given a pumpkin along with paints, scrap paper, glue, scissors and a knife to get creative. It was lovely seeing all the finished pumpkins proudly displayed in reception afterwards.
In the evening, we had the usual Mini Disco followed by a magic show. My daughter even got the opportunity to join in, which made it extra special for her. A really enjoyable show!
Thursday
It was time for the usual Daisy Games around the pool! Fanta, Cola and Sprite, with the children taking their turn first, cheered on by everyone, before it was the parents' turn. Honestly, so funny to watch!
Despite the Daisy Games taking place, the team also managed to organise a FOAM PARTY! What a fantastic afternoon! The animation team could even be seen clearing away the foam straight afterwards to help prevent anyone slipping. Those little details don't go unnoticed.
The evening entertainment was a Mini Disco followed by a Grease and Mamma Mia mash-up show. Honestly, when do this team ever stop?!
Friday
Another Halloween-themed poolside show from the Animation Team, and once again, absolutely brilliant!
The evening consisted of the Mini Disco followed by the full Halloween show. I know I keep repeating myself, but the amount of work these guys put in is phenomenal.
Saturday: HALLOWEEN!
My goodness, where do I even start?!
The amount of time, planning and effort that went into making Halloween special for the children was incredible.
There were Halloween crafts, trick-or-treating around the hotel, fancy dress, a horror tunnel and, of course, the Daisy Games!
The evening was simply AMAZING. An outdoor Halloween Mini Disco followed by a huge poolside Halloween party, with a separate horror cave for children aged 9+. There was so much going on, and the atmosphere was fantastic.
It was clear how much the team wanted everyone to have a memorable Halloween. They absolutely delivered!
Sunday
Sunday was a little overcast, so we decided to venture out for a walk and visit the aquarium. One of the hotel's biggest advantages is its location. The aquarium is less than a five-minute walk away, making it a really convenient little trip, especially with children.
Back at the hotel, the evening entertainment consisted of the Mini Disco followed by the Bubble Clown.
Monday
We had more Daisy Games during the day, followed by an impromptu water-gun adventure around the hotel grounds, with everyone running around trying to blast members of the Animation Team!
The evening was the White Party. This time, the Mini Disco was held outside at the pool bar, which I honestly think worked so much better!
Rather than a traditional show afterwards, the team put on a White Party Disco. The DJ had both children and adults up dancing, singing and smiling throughout. It was such a lovely atmosphere and a brilliant way to finish our week.
🍹 FOOD, DRINKS & VALUE FOR MONEY
We opted for half board as we generally only have breakfast and lunch at the hotel and prefer to head out for dinner in the evenings.
The bar prices are very reasonable too. Three pints (and when I say pints, these were practically the size of my head!) came to just €13.
For us, it offered really good value.
❤️ OUR FINAL THOUGHTS
Having now stayed at three H10 hotels in Lanzarote, we feel H10 Suites Lanzarote Gardens is the one that ticks the most boxes for our family.
It might not be the biggest or most luxurious-looking hotel in the H10 collection, but what it offers in terms of location, family-friendly facilities, atmosphere and, most importantly, entertainment makes it stand out.
A special mention has to go to the entire Animation Team, especially Diego, Xabi and Maria. You can see the effort they put in day after day, from the daytime activities to the evening shows and the extra events they organise. They are constantly on the go, engaging with guests and making sure everyone is included. Their enthusiasm really does make a difference.
Most importantly, my 4-year-old daughter had the most wonderful time, and that's what matters most to us.
We originally came here in 2024, and after experiencing the other H10 hotels, we deliberately chose to come back. I think that says everything!
Would we recommend H10 Suites Lanzarote Gardens? Absolutely!
If you're looking for a family-friendly hotel where the children are entertained, the adults can enjoy themselves too, and there's always something happening, this is definitely worth considering.
Thank you to everyone at H10 Suites Lanzarote Gardens, especially the Animation Team, for another fantastic holiday. We have made some lovely memories and wouldn't hesitate to return! ❤️"
