Top Lagos Hotel Reviews

Carvi Beach Hotel

Carvi Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"My friend and I stayed at this hotel in July 2026. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to others. The room was very clean. The AC worked well. We had a little balcony which we enjoyed a lot. The best part of this hotel is its location ; right by the beach and also its rooftop pool that we used often as well. The staff was very kind. The breakfast was great. The hotel is about a 15-20 minute walk to downtown which felt fine. I would definitely stay here again."

"Brilliant location close to the beach and two fantastic restaurants. The food on the al-a-carte menu in Belmar was also great. We had a first floor apartment overlooking one of the pools and easy access to the carpark via a lift which was good for our son who has a heart condition. Highly recommend Belmar and their staff."
