The Islote del Amor (also known as El Islote de Fermina) is one of César Manrique’s most inspiring creations in Lanzarote. Recently restored, this architectural jewel combines art, sea, and volcanic landscape into a harmonious space where every curve pays tribute to nature.
Visitors can relax in the Manrique-designed saltwater pools, enjoy panoramic sea views from the solarium, or have breakfast at the elegant seaside café. The space reflects Manrique’s genius—transforming volcanic rock and ocean into a dialogue between nature and design.
Art, Architecture, and the Essence of Lanzarote
More than just a swimming area, the Islote del Amor is a living museum of Manrique’s philosophy: art must integrate with the landscape. Located in the heart of Arrecife, it offers a peaceful environment ideal for photography lovers, couples, or anyone seeking a moment of serenity surrounded by Atlantic beauty.
