“Quiet sunny weekend”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011
3
people found this review helpful

The weekend we were at this hotel it was practically empty which meant we got great service at reception but we did not stay around in the evening so cannot comment on the bar or restaurant. The pool area is very relaxing with great views over the sea and comfortable sunloungers, and double sunbeds. There was no drinks service and no-one available in the cafe at the time. The rooms are very funky modern but cosy with an in-room bathtub, great shower and a lot of mirrors. On the downside the part-sea view was OK but not full South-facing, rather over the neighbouring houses and coast road.. You can still leave the door open and hear the waves all night though :-). We did not use the spa because it wasn't open early or late enough but it looked inviting if you are around the hotel all day. Location wise the property is well-placed for walking to and along Meia Prai (5 mins), several beach cafes and coast road restaurants and for reaching Lagos by car (10 mins or 7 euros taxi) or bus which stops outside.

Room Tip: choose a South side room

“Perfect relaxing holiday”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

Just returned from a lovely stay at this hotel. No problems with the service as mentioned in previous reviews, everyone seemed very friendly especially Paulo the waiter. He really made our evenings special guiding us through the menu in a friendly and professional manner. A real asset to the hotel.
The rooms are superb, nice and modern like the pictures suggest. Food in the restuarant is superb. Served off a menu rather than a buffet.
the hotel is very close to the beach which is worth visting but the sun loungers by the pool are so comfortable your unlikely to stay that long. The walk to the town is maybe a little bit too far to do every day, about half hour.
A few suggestions to the hotel to improve the experience: Provide tea making facilities in the room, provide an iron for each room, drop or reduce the 10 euro charge for use of the indoor pool & gym, the 10 euro charge for anything brought to the room is also a bit steep.
Overall, a great stay so we may well be back.

“Crickets and Elevator Music.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2011

person found this review helpful

This is a Five Star facility with a three star service. The Hotel itself is stunning situated on Meia Praia beach about a 30min walk from Lagos Town. It is newly built with indoor and outdoor pools and a spa. The rooms are lovely and in a contemporary style. All you would expect from a five star Hotel. Unfortunately they seem to be woefully understaffed. Their is no poolside service and most times on entering the Cafe/Bar you need to either wait ten to fifteen minutes or go looking for staff. At night there was only one waiter on duty for the restaurant and dinner took two hours to get served and eaten. Now worst of all!! I was nearly driven insane by the cheap elevator music that permiates all the public areas of the hotel. There are only so many versions of the Girl from Ipanema a man can take! To compound this a cricket found his way into the hotel and regailed us with his noise from Sun down to Sun up. I slept with my noise cancelling ear phones on, my wife had ear plugs. Its a shame the little things were not done right as this could be a truly great hotel but for now I would go with one of the other many hotels in the area.

Room Tip: The top floor rooms have their own mini pool.

“5star facilities, 3star service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Pleasant stay but I don't really believe this to be a five star hotel.

Don't take me wrong, the facilities are good, the view is fantastic, the hotel is modern and cool. But a five star hotel is about more than just the building, and when it comes to service it's quite disappointing.

To give you an example, they offer minibar in the room, but it's empty. If you want to fill it on demand you are welcome to do so, for a 10€ fee per person plus the price of the minibar. Nothing against charges, but isn't the whole point of a minibar not to have to go through the hassle of ordering something? This is one example of many.

If you want the view, the location and the service I'd try next door, I'm willing to bet you'd be better of.

Room Tip: They only accept reservations for twin rooms. If you're a couple make sure to request a double o...
