Saturday’s floods in Costa Teguise have led to the closure of three hotels, all located in a fairly small zone near Las Cucharas Shopping Centre.
The Paradisus by Melía Salinas, designed by César Manrique and the first major hotel in the resort, has relocated guests to the Sol Melía in Puerto del Carmen. Meanwhile, the HD Beach Resort & Spa was completely flooded, and owners are reported to be taking the opportunity to remodel the premises. No date for re-opening has been announced for either hotel.
Meanwhile, the Treból apartments, which were probably the worst-affected, will remain closed until June 1st. Other apartment complexes, such as Sands Beach and Santa Rosa, were affected by the floods but have not been fully closed as a result.
Union leaders have requested furlough schemes for the workers affected by the closures,
Meanwhile tourists are advised to contact their holiday providers if they are affected by the closures. It is worth stressing that, outside of the affected area, Costa Teguise and the rest of Lanzarote are functioning perfectly well and weather conditions are normal for the time of year.
