Playa Blanca is the southernmost resort of Lanzarote, one of the few touristically developed areas in the whole island. What used to be a little fishing village now has plenty of hotels and holiday appartments.
The hotel is on the western end of the town, near Pechiguera lighthouse. When you arrive to the huge roundabout at the entrance of Playa Blanca, take the exit on the left, pass the bus station and continue for some kilometers through hotels and residential areas. At the fourth tiny roundabout, you will find a singpost to the Nature Palace hotel. Just go downhill and then turn right.

My review
The apartments are quite new, designed according to the traditional canarian architecture. Two-storey white buildings with a large terrace built in the slope of one of the volcanoes so typical in this island. The apartments include a full equiped kitchen and bathroom, a living room and a generously sized bedroom. There are only a few shops or restaurants around, so it is convenient to have a car if you are staying here.
Across the street, the hotel is a large building closer to the shore. The garden, in fact, communicates to the seafront promenade, giving easy access to a little rocky beach. The huge pool is the most distinctive feature in the hotel grounds. All around there are lots of sunbeds and umbrellas in different levels. The garden also contains several sport facilities including a mini-golf course.

Nudist areas
As my first nudist experience in a hotel, it was quite dissapointing. The only nudist section is a small area surrounded by a two-meter high white concrete wall  near the sport grounds. Suppossedly, it is only for adults; I don't know if you can be there with your own children.
Inside the wall, some sunbeds and umbrellas and a few trees. The only swimming pool is in the textile area, so you will need your swimsuit. With the incredible clothing-optional beaches in Papagayo just minutes away, I only spent there a few minutes.
