Swimming Pool

Zocos and The Cactus Garden

There is heated swimming pool of 7 x 3 m with automatic water filtration system, automatic control the PH, UVc ozone disinfection lamp which allows reduced level of chlorine for better comfort of your skin and eyes. We additionally clean the pool and surrounding spaces regularly or whenever required for your comfort. We want you to enjoy the pool as much as you can so we prepared an open-air shower so you can get prepared before entering the pool. Pool opening hours are from 10 am till 11pm. Later the pool will be covered for protection and heating (but we are flexible and can adjust the opening hours to your needs). In winter the pool has a very nice water temperature of 22-24 degrees Celsius.

Next to the swimming pool each house has its own “zoco” which is a traditional stone protection wall which you will find in the vineyards and gardens only in Lanzarote to protect the plants from wind. In Casitas Santa Rita we have created “zocos” as chill out zones securing full privacy and intimacy for our guests to enjoy the sun and the pool fully and privately on our comfortable sunbeds. Each “zoco” has a connection to electricity and internet so you can work or relax by the pool.

The Cactus garden surrounds the pool. It offers a huge variety of cactuses and other plants so you will feel you are in the Canary Island every day. The garden is nicely illuminated at night and so is the pool. From the garden there is a fantastic view of the village church. During clear nights which happens very often, the view of the stars is breathtaking.

There is a marvelous retreat area under a tree in the garden, a real enclave to read a book or relax in the natural shadow with great views on the pool and garden.
