Ona Las Casitas

The resort and its setting

Ona Las Casitas sits in Playa Blanca, on the southern tip of Lanzarote, within easy reach of the town's marina, promenade and beaches. Rated 4.6 out of 5 from 329 Google reviews, it's described as an informal, low-key complex set across palm-filled grounds, with outdoor pools, a snack bar and a tennis court. It's a self-catering property aimed at families and couples who want a relaxed base rather than a high-rise hotel experience, with grounds well suited to long, unhurried stays.

Playa Blanca and the area

Playa Blanca grew from a small fishing village into one of Lanzarote's main resort towns, and it still keeps a quieter, more low-rise feel than the island's busier northern resorts. The harbour area has a daily catamaran and ferry link across to Fuerteventura, and the town itself is built around a long beachfront promenade lined with restaurants, cafés and shops. Inland and along the coast, the island's volcanic landscape is the main draw — Timanfaya National Park's lunar scenery, the Los Hervideros lava cliffs, and the Papagayo beaches to the east are all popular day trips from this part of the island. Playa Blanca's own beaches, including Playa Dorada and Playa Flamingo, are within walking distance of most accommodation in town.

Selling or renting a week here

If you hold a week at Ona Las Casitas and no longer use it, you can list it for resale or as a rental directly on BidMyTimeshare.com. This is an owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, write your own listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you through the platform. There's no commission on a sale — sellers pay a one-time listing fee to advertise, and that's the only cost to publish.

Ona Las Casitas is run independently rather than through a verified exchange network, so any resale is handled through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management, rather than a brand-wide transfer system. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, both parties should confirm directly with the resort what the current transfer fee is, whether the resort or association holds any right of first refusal on a resale, and what the current annual maintenance fee is set at — these figures aren't published centrally and can change, so always get them in writing from the resort before completing a sale. A resale buyer should expect to receive the usage rights tied to the week and unit type purchased, exactly as registered with the resort; they should not assume any loyalty perks, exchange credits or added extras unless the seller can show these are formally attached to the week.

Practical notes for owners and renters

Renters and buyers researching this resort typically want to know about the pool and grounds, the tennis court, proximity to the beach and harbour, and whether the unit is self-catering with kitchen facilities — all points worth covering clearly in a listing description and photos. Sellers should also be upfront about which week or season is included, since Lanzarote's climate is mild and fairly stable year-round, meaning demand for weeks here isn't as sharply seasonal as in colder-climate destinations.

Getting there

Lanzarote's airport (Arrecife) is the arrival point for the island, with Playa Blanca on the opposite, southern coast — a transfer most visitors take by taxi, hire car or bus. Having a car for a few days is useful for reaching Timanfaya and the island's other volcanic sights, though Playa Blanca itself is easily walkable.
