I found this absolutely massive site in July 2017. I’ve only been here once despite going to lanzarote since as you have to walk 1 hour straight in the sun over wasteland to find it! It’s extremely out the way. The story behind this hotel is actually quite funny aswell. I do believe it was the 70s when a German business man wanted to build a golf hotel in Lanzarote. The structure was built and then after they built it they realised the land was too volcanic for any grass to grow! Poor man couldn’t have his golf hotel :(. They basically just abandoned it and it’s going to cost Lanzarote I think around a billion euros to take down the shell so they’ve just left it there. The building just stands abandoned but I do think some squatters were living in there as a little end was blocked off and there were mattresses. Excuse the captions in some of the photos it’s because I took some for snapchat aswell as just normal photos XD sorry!

I don't know the ins and outs of the logic, but apparently a lot of sites like this get partially built with work stopping half way through.

The developer possibly gets a big investment to build a project then "whoops, sorry Mr Banker, can't finish because of x y z, see ya"

2022 the hotel is still the same, visited the location today it was great to go around the site. A lot easier to get to and saw a few cars going up to see it too. We walked in the sun but so worth it! Hope you enjoy the pics will be putting a video up on YouTube when back in the UK.

I've been to some awesome places but the first abroad I have found. The best hotel too that I've explored.
I heard when I went back to lanzarote in the summer that it is seriously unsafe due to the people (squatters) living in it (update from my local mate) so I didn’t bother heading back to check on it good you did nice to know it’s still standing :)
