As both my daughters are frantically using a few days to spruce up their Villa so that it’s pristine for the coming very busy season I thought I would pop in to say “hello” and hopefully put your minds at rest if you are in anyway concerned about how the British press are reporting anti tourist action in Lanzarote.
May I sum it up in a polite way? Bull S..T!
Yes there is a desperate housing shortage in Lanzarote but this has been caused by successive leaders failing to provide adequate housing for the workers who are vital for an island that is dependent on tourism. Unfortunately greed is the main problem. Lining of pockets instead of sensible long term planning; the provision of sensibly priced long term accommodation.
Slowly folk in power are waking up but these demonstrations were necessary to illustrate the crisis which is happening NOW. Concerned people who live on the island are trying to wake up politicians to this worrying concern they are absolutely not against tourism please rest assured
Another concern is legal rental licencing please be aware that all LVDs properties are meticulously maintained to ensure that we cover all legalities. All our properties have tourist licences.
All you have to do is browse www.lanzarotevillasdirect.com and book your holiday.
It’s great to see regular friends returning year after year, Jeeps we have being selling villa holidays for over 35 years living on this fabulous island for nearly thirty. I know I’m OLD!!
Sending best wishes to you all.
