Seems a bit Third-World to me: dodgy roads, wild-eyed locals, feral animals, carnage in the streets, sewerage flowing across pavements
Lanzarote and Tenefire are OK though

Thnx OP but very few days available with those prices. Do you know any good place to stay and will it not be cold at this time of the year?

the canary islands benefit from pretty much year round warm weather. its currently snowing on the spanish mainland but the canaries will be basking in sunshine.

I wouldn't know in regards to accommodation because as a crew we get hotel discounts :disappointed:. Weather wise, I was in Lanzarote last week and it was 19°c.

will feel a bit chilly in the evening once sun has gone down... but only jumper weather.... in the day will be warm and shirts t-shirt weather.
As for accommodation it's not so cheap when booking last minute due to issues with Egypt and Tunisia etc the prices seem to have gone up a lot.

If you looking for reasonable accommodation have a look at http://www.airbnb.com some very good bargains

a lot of companies have redirected holiday makers to the canaries from a number of destinations including the ones mentioned.

I read some tripadvisor posts & comments and it's mixed between both. Just depends I guess.

depends on where you stay and also a bit of luck with the weather.... but Lanzarote does tend to be windy. I've been there was glorious sun through Feb and also had Feb's where its not as good..... but in general it's fine. compared to what it's like here at the moment it's gonna feel great lol

Yes but don't pay any money unless it's to AirBNB many scams.
