Lagos Atlantic Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Marta was incredible all throughout our stay. So were the other staff. Great amenities, great location. They make you feel like royalty"

Aqualuz Lagos by The Editory

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at Aqualuz, especially because of its excellent location. If you enjoy walking, this hotel is a great choice. We easily walked to the Marina, Old Town, and all the beaches, from Meia Praia to Praia Dona Ana, to Praia do Canavial, and everything in between. It was wonderful being able to explore so much of Lagos on foot. The hotel pool was a refreshing bonus after a long day in the sun and a great way to relax and reenergize before heading out for dinner. Breakfast was amazing and always well stocked, with several options to start the day. Our room was clean, comfortable and spacious enough, with a tv room, bathroom, and a bedroom. There is also a mini fridge and safe. It looks like all rooms have a pool facing view. Our room was cleaned daily around 3 p.m. Fresh towels were always provided which was appreciated. A couple of small things to note: the bathroom amenities were a bit lacking. The shower had one bottle of combined hair and body wash. There was one small guest hand soap at the sink (which was never replaced), with a disposable shower cap and small vanity kit. There is a small laundry room you can use for a fee. If it is busy, there is another one in the Spar convenience store just steps away. Overall, I definitely recommend Aqualuz and would happily stay here again. The location, breakfast, pool, and comfortable rooms made it a great choice for us, an older coupler who like to walk everywhere."

Carvi Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Unbeatable location — right next to one of Lagos's best beaches, a bus stop on the corner, and steps from the boardwalk to Ponta da Piedade. City center is a 20-min walk (minor slopes, nothing like Lisbon/Porto). Check-in was excellent, room was clean but with a slight musty smell. The hotel shows its age, but essentials were there and more: balcony, safe, small fridge, and a water bottle you can refill from the tap and chill. No facial tissues though — had to use toilet paper. AC unit is dated and noisy on colder settings; had to set it to 17°C for a decent temp, feels near end of life. Beds were comfortable, better than expected. Breakfast was perfect — as vegans, we found both peanut butter and soy/almond milk at the buffet, plus a nice terrace view. A toilet issue was fixed within the hour, faster than I'd expect from an Airbnb. That's why I prefer real hotels. The one time I needed info on Sagres/Ponta da Piedade excursions, the younger front desk staff gave confusing answers — but other staff I saw elsewhere were thorough and helpful, so likely just bad timing. Being near a beach, it was noisy two nights from late-night partiers — loud talking, door slamming. Suggestion: redo the bathroom silicone/caulking for a fresher finish. Overall: unbeatable location, dated but functional room, great breakfast and service — worth it despite the quirks."

Hotel Algarve Casino

8/10 Good

"The best thing about this hotel is its location. Its a clean hotel with great staff. The beach is a long walk from the hotel but its beautiful. You do not need water shoes here. The beach is all smooth sand . There are numerous restaurants and shopping all within walking distance to the hotel as well as tours. So great location. I do recommend this hotel to future tourists. Only negative was the room we were assigned. Its on the left side of the front desk, very old rooms, large with large balcony. To access the room we had to go down some beautiful but deeply winding stairs. To go to breakfast we had another set of beautiful but very winding stairs. This area was not safe for seniors with those stairs, yet many seniors were assigned those rooms. I would recommend to the hotel not to put seniors in that area of their hotel."
