- Well designed and furnished rooms /cabana‘s
- Quiet, hidden gem in Lagos
- The kitchen has good quality and fresh food. I love how they grow their own fruit and vegetables and are very concious with food and nature.
Con‘s
- The choice at breakfast is too limited if you stay more than a few days. There’s no buffet, but you can order specific dishes, which are limited by a maximum choice of dishes included.
- They were vacuum cleaning the breakfast room at 10:30am while guests were still having breakfast.
- The restaurant staff is very friendly but lack some experience.
- The winelist could have been a bit longer with more non-Portugese wines.
- Eco soap/shampoo is not really working.
- Little /no storage space for clothes in the room
Recap: a very nice and well designed hotel with friendly staff but certainly not 5-stars. Breakfast included should mean you can eat and drink as much as you like without extra charges. They should really think about a breakfast buffet instead of a limited menu and more variety. A lot of guests would appreciate it much more.
Less for more...
We were really looking forward to this stay as we appreciated the design approach and the advertised dedication for locally produced food and local products. Also the public areas seemed to be very promising place to relax or have a nice glass of wine, etc.
The material concept and the feel of the place is actually well done and quite nice. In relation to the price this place asks for, most other aspects are unfortunately unacceptable.
If you offer a minimally designed rooms, it is mandatory that there is space for clothes and storage.
During our stay the look of our room was dominated by our stuff, that we just couldn't put anywhere. There is no cupboard and no place to put your suitcases but on the floor in the middle of the room.
Opposite the bed you will face the washing basin, that will be filled with your cosmetics not even leaving space for the soap. The side tables next to your bed are completely occupied by desk lamp, phone and music system..
I could continue further, but I guess that gives an impression and continues throughout every aspect of this place, in the sense of having had a good concept, that was really not carried out very well and is charged absolutely overpriced.
To just name some more examples of this: minimal breakfast selection, set dinner menu that consists of dishes that were already served during the day, insufficient amounts of desk chairs at the pool, overcooked pasta, overburdened staff....
For half or two thirds of the price, this would feel nice, but that way we just felt ripped off....
We went new,s year eve for a special breakfast with our daughter and boyfriend. We live and work locally, so we know 1 of the receptionists ,so asked her to book a table for us.We arrived and the receptionist didn't even seem to know we had a booking,or a special table reserved!!!
We were left after having our temperature taken to find our own way to any table?Supposed to be a five star hotel,no way.
We chose our table,sat ourselves down and waited.!!!
The girl serving was polite but no warmth or joy,considering the restaurant was almost empty and it was new years eve?
Food was satisfactory, nothing special,.
Overall extremely disappointing, will not recommend or return.
Someone needs to give some people skill lessons to their staff,,especially in these difficult times,when care and service should matter!Money is hard earned and service should be five star,,wherever we are.
"The best place in the historic center of Lagos - Portugal"
Really amazing food in the restaurant. We returned here multiple times for lunch and dinners, and were always amazed!
