I stayed in a beautiful 5 star hotel in Lanzarote before xmas, it was in Playa Blanca - called Princess Yaiza if I recall.
Childrens pool, childrens section called Kikiland off the hotel, the hotel itself was unbelievable (i actually wondered if I was in the correct place when we checked in as it was so beautiful). Hotel had fresh water pool, salt water pool, restaurants, bars, shops, a 5 minute walk to town centre (not very big but full of designer shops etc...). Boardwalk of bars/shops/etc... The hotel rooms were like little apartments, there was a small courtyard beneath hotel proper with a couple of restaurants, you could get to it by lift, the whole place was fully wheelchair (and hence buggy) friendly, beach was below courtyard.
Basically it was dream 'flop' holiday as there was very little to do except relax in the sun or buy some designerwear. There were tours you could go on but we didnt manage to get round to that
Hotel transfer from airport was approx 40 mins in taxi.
If you google Princess Yaiza you will see the hotel - playa blanca is the quietest resort on the island - i dont believe there were any nightclubs at all.
