Finca Bougainvilla comprises 2 holiday rental properties located in Guime, Lanzarote: a luxury 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom villa with a private heated pool; and a separate 1 bedroom apartment with garden and barbecue area.

Lanzarote Holiday Villa

Sympathetically restored, this 200-year-old property retains many original features and rustic charm. The villa has a master kingsize bedroom with en-suite, a further double bedroom and one twin bedroom; there is also a separate family bathroom. The whole property is luxuriously furnished throughout.

Externally there are 2 large terraces (one of which is covered), and also a built in BBQ. The large solar heated private swimming pool is treated with a salt water system, meaning no chemicals are used to maintain the water quality, making it very environmentally friendly. There are views across the mountains to the sea.

Relaxing or Exploring

The villa has all you need if your desire is to simply relax all day by the swimming pool, enjoying the wonderful climate and private alfresco dining. However, the superb location of Finca Bougainvilla makes it an ideal base for walking, hiking or cycling holidays on Lanzarote. If you prefer sunbathing, the long white beaches of Puerto del Carmen are only 15 minutes drive away.

Surfing, scuba diving, snorkelling, windsurfing, kitesurfing, fishing, etc. are all readily available there and at the many other beaches on the Island. Other nearby recreational facilities include an aqua park, two 18-hole golf courses and the Rancho Texas animal park.

The Local Area

The finca nestles in the sleepy village of Guime. The village has a nice bodega serving drinks and tapas and also ‘the Sociedad’ – a meeting place for the villagers. Within the village, and just a few minutes walk from the property is a small friendly shop. They sell just about everything: freshly baked bread, meat, fish, and locally grown fruit and vegetables.

The upmarket marina at Puerto Calero has a good selection of restaurants where you can enjoy some of the ocean’s finest and freshest produce or simply while away a few hours watching the world go by. Puerto del Carmen is the main tourist resort with a great number of bars, restaurants and night life!

About us

Hi there and welcome to our wonderful villa. We are Anne and Andy Harris, retired Foster Carers for disabled children, Andy was also a Firefighter for many years. We are long term visitors to this beautiful island and admirers of the local scenery and people.

On one of our visits to the island, we came across Finca Bougainvilla, a beautiful rustic villa full of character and charm, tucked away in the peaceful village of Guime. Having returned to the U.K in the grips of a harsh winter, we made the decision to retire and relocate to the Island and invest in our dream home. Although the decision was not an easy one as we left our four grown up children and two grandchildren, they have benefited from our move, enjoying our new home, warmer weather and of course, the pool!

The villa has also been enjoyed by many holiday guests over the years by the previous owners, therefore we want to continue welcoming visitors here whilst endeavouring to uphold the high standards that have been established previously. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Just a short note to thank you so much for allowing us to rent your beautiful finca last week. What a wonderful, spacious property and so tastefully done… we were very envious! We had a fantastic week of sunshine, rest and relaxation interspersed with some excellent food! All in all, a wonderful way to spend a week. Our sincere thanks once again!

Just a short note to thank you for letting our family rent your finca villa. The villa was beautiful and of a very high standard and made our stay on the island very pleasant indeed. As we have been to Lanzarote a few times, we had seen all the sights before, so to stop somewhere as nice as your villa, rather than a hotel based holiday where you try to find something to do just to escape. The photos you have posted on various sites do not do the villa justice as was summed up by my son when we entered the villa “ITS LIKE THE TARDIS”. Also the professionalism of the whole experience. A big thanks again and I would not hesitate to recommend to anybody.
