Top Lagos Hotel Reviews

Villa Doris Suites

8/10 Good

"Hotel Villa is very spacious. The best feature of this villa is that there is an agreement with the hotel Costa D’oro. We loved using the pools, drinks and food were delicious. Good use of the gym. Walking distance to the main city center ."

Cascade Wellness Resort Lagos Algarve by Domes

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel in need of refurbishment - which they are doing at end of 2026 season. Staff were helpful and friendly. Restaurant options were a bit limited."

Marina Club Suite Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The best part of the stay was the location! So easy to walk to boat tours, the old town, beach, and grocery store. Room was spacious cool temp, and had wine glasses, opener and much more. Friendly staff, nice pool area with two bars. Never made it to the breakfast so can’t comment on that, but overall a lovely stay."

Boavista Golf & Spa - Bela Colina Holidays

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay at what is a peaceful resort with beautiful surroundings. Lovely pool area and great spa facilities."

Lagosmar Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Would recommend, excellent value for money..And a fantastic location."

Meia Praia Lagos - Beach Club Apartments

8/10 Good

"Although the property is a little dated it is clean and very quiet. Located between the two train stations with an approximate 20-25 mins to Meia Praia station. Walkable distance to Lagos town. Although breakfast was available for a price as well as snacks (very limited) and drinks the restaurant advertised was non existent. However across the road is an excellent restaurant Quintal do Peixe which I would highly recommend. Helpful info : Ask for a hair dryer at front desk as they are not in the room. Towels for the pool are available at the front desk for a deposit of 15 euro each but reimbursed on return at check out. Cons: Charge for safe in room. Also nusiance flies by the pool."

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."

WOT Lagos Montemar Soul

8/10 Good
