Holiday to lanzarote in january?

I am looking to book a cheap holiday to lanzarote in january. any additional tips for trying to get a cheap deal as a single traveller would be appreciated. i am not having much luck getting the cheap, last minute deals everyone talks about though i have been round the usual websites. cheaper to book flights now (i really want to have something booked before xmas) and wait until before i go to get a room somewhere? any info would be appreciated as i am not an experienced traveller.
Answer
Your best way is to find a flight and the room separate. this is the industry is known as dynamic pacaking. this way you avoid paying under occupancy as a single traveller. give me a shout if you need any help
