Barlavento Hotel Guide - Family Friendly Hotels in Barlavento, Portugal

"Very good"

"Good overall, shower didn't drain and flooded the bathroom daily."

"Hotel provided free shuttle to and from beach "

"The room was a nice big size and location was nice just outside of the old town and near a beach and beautiful boardwalk. Big kitchen but was missing a baking pan which I bought one at the supermarket. Unit did not have laundry and there was no self service laundry in the building, only pay by item which was a disappointment. Furnishings could use an upgrade."

"Great location to beach - just a 2 min walk, clean and modern. Easy walk to shops and restaurants . "

"We had a studio which was basic at best. Curtains didn’t quite meet, damage to the walls, stained bath, not very attractive bedding, very basic kitchen equipment. Only two glasses! The service wasn’t great, pool bar wasn’t even open on Sunday in May so we had to go inside order and wait to bring our own food back out to the pool Not worth the price in my opinion "

"Enjoyed our time there and loved the location. Staff were super. "

"The hotel was gorgeous, beautiful pool area and lovely, large rooms. My complaint is with the hotel restaurant itself. We had been traveling all day and were hungry. We were the second table to arrive at the restaurant. We ordered food and then waited. And waited. And waited. After an hour, we were furious. Our waiter had NEVER come back to our table, never brought food, never checked, etc. We got up to leave and suddenly he ran over to us. We left the restaurant, feeling super angry. I guess he told someone because the restaurant manager actually came to our room that night. He apologized and gave us free breakfast the next day. That was kind, but it doesn't change the bad service we received. It kind of ruined our whole experience. "

"This resort is luxury level at a very reasonable price. The room was high end, with everything we needed in the resort. I would have preferred a different coffee maker in the room (it had a Nescafe Dolce Gusto), but that's a very minor issue. The appliances were great. It took a while to figure out the clothes washer, but once we had that in hand, we had no issues. The proximity of the resort to the beach was fantastic and all of the pools were high end. This is in a secluded part of Lagos so it's great if you like a quiet resort. It was almost always only 4 euros to take a Bolt to the Marina. It was also only a short walk to the Lagos Boardwalk. All in all, this was a fantastic find."
