If all of your data frames had enough points then this should work:

myfun1 <- function(le) {
  list(one=geosphere::centroid(coordinates(le$one)),
       two=geosphere::centroid(coordinates(le$two))
       )
}

lapply(ct, myfun1)

To handle the one point case, try the following, which I think works with your 
example data, but is untested if there just two points.
It also assumes the data frames are named 'one' and 'two', and will ignore any 
others. To handle other names, I think you
could replace  $one  with  [[1]]  and  $two  with  [[2]]  .

myfun <- function(le) {
  list(one=if (length(le$one)>1) geosphere::centroid(coordinates(le$one)) else 
coodinates(le$one),
       two=if (length(le$two)>1) geosphere::centroid(coordinates(le$two)) else 
coordinates(le$two)
       )
}

lapply(ct, myfun)


To see a little bit of what's going on, try

  myfun(ct[[1]])
  myfun1(ct[[1]])
  myfun1(ct[[2]])
  myfun(ct[[2]])



I would also verify that the length method for objects of class SpatialPoints 
does return the number of points, as it appears to:

> class(ct$a$two)
[1] "SpatialPoints"
attr(,"package")
[1] "sp"

> length(ct$a$one)
[1] 3
> length(ct$a$two)
[1] 3
> length(ct$a$two)
[1] 3
> length(ct$b$two)
[1] 1

    Hi everyone,
    
    I have a list of coordinates called "ct" and I want to extract the
    centroids of each sublist, but it only works when it has only 3 or more
    points. In ct$b$two only has one point; in that case, I would rescue that
    point as If it were a centroid.
    
    This is what I did:
    
    library(dplyr)
    library(geosphere)
    
    ct <- list(a = list(one = data.frame(lon = c(-180, -160, -60), lat = c(-20,
    5, 0)),
                        two = data.frame(lon = c(-18, -16, -6), lat = c(-2, 50,
    10))),
               b = list(one = data.frame(lon = c(-9, -8, -3), lat = c(-1, 25,
    5)),
                        two = data.frame(lon = c(-90), lat = c(-1))))
    
    coordinates(ct$a$one) <- ~lon+lat
    coordinates(ct$a$two) <- ~lon+lat
    coordinates(ct$b$one) <- ~lon+lat
    coordinates(ct$b$two) <- ~lon+lat
    
    s <- 1:length(ct)
    ctply <- list()
    for (i in s){
     for (j in 1:length(ct[[i]])) {
      ctply[[i]][j] <- ifelse(test = lengths(ct[[i]][1]) > 2, yes = sapply(X =
    ct[[i]][j],
        FUN = function(y) geosphere::centroid(slot(y, "coords"))), no =
    ct[[i]][j] )
     }
    }
    
    Thanks in advance
    
    Regards,
    Ariel
