A farmhouse in Mozaga
Hotel EL GRIFO occupies a family farmhouse built in the late 18th century in Mozaga, a village in Lanzarote’s agricultural centre. The historic building has been adapted as a small rural hotel, with six rooms and two suites.
Antique furniture and traditional details give the rooms a rustic character. The accommodation also has comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms. Gardens and terraces with local plants sit among the island’s dark volcanic ground. The property’s quiet countryside setting suits travellers who prefer a rural base to a resort area.
Food and a Saturday tasting
The restaurant is housed in the farmhouse’s former stables and serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. Its cooking draws on Spanish, Canarian and Italian food. Seafood arroz meloso and homemade fig ice cream are among the dishes associated with the menu; breakfast is served on the property as well.
On Saturdays, Erica hosts a wine and cheese tasting. Ask the hotel about joining during your stay. The restaurant is a separate business, even though it is located on the hotel grounds.
Using the hotel as a base
Mozaga’s central position makes it convenient for reaching different parts of Lanzarote by car. The hotel team can also share local advice for planning time on the island. The accommodation is set in a village rather than a large tourist resort, so it is a better fit for travellers looking for a quiet countryside stay.
