Iberostar Selection Lagos Algarve

Jonathan Alexander

We stayed at the Iberostar in the Algarve and had a great experience overall. Our room was on the top floor with an amazing ocean view. The location is beautiful and it’s just a short walk down to the beach, which was peaceful and not crowded at all. It felt very romantic. The breakfast buffet was also really good with a big selection and plenty of options. A few downsides were that the carpet on the sixth floor felt old and worn, which didn’t really match the five-star feel of the hotel. The AC didn’t seem to work properly in the mornings and was blowing warm air, so we had to open the balcony door for some breeze. The room phone also didn’t work, and even though I mentioned it to the front desk, no one ever came to fix it. Overall, it’s a beautiful hotel in a perfect location and definitely worth staying at. The service could be a little more attentive, and the rooms could use some updates to match the quality of everything else.

A really excellent hotel, with fantastic staff. We had the “Double Terrace with Balinese Bed” with the all-inclusive dining/drinks option which we loved as it was a good size and well appointed and the Balinese bed made for some excellent relaxing near the pool and with access to the bar for drinks. The mini fridge items were also included in our package. This included soft drinks, mini prosecco, beers, nuts/jelly sweets. The room had some signs of use with some small defects that did not have any affect on our stay. Buffet was good with plenty of selection with a changing menu that made sure to still have the basics (pizza, pasta, soup & chips) if the more…. exotic fare wasn’t what you wanted that day. The beach is easily accessible and is a great place to relax by the water, though it is not affiliated with the hotel there is plenty space to set up shop if you don’t want to pay to use the sunbed/umbrellas. I would appreciate if they would make the parking situation more transparent as we were uncertain of the process and costs before we arrived. However, once we had figured out the parking arrangements it was excellent to be able to park in the garage, a short walk from our room and was easy to come and go as we pleased. We also arranged late checkout though this is subject to availability!

My husband and I returned home last Saturday after a two week stay at this hotel. It was really good. When we arrived we were greeted by Jason at reception who was excellent during our whole stay. Max the porter was also really good and always willing to help. Big Thankyou Karim and his team at the pool bar. Very modern hotel which was lovely, food good, location good only minutes in small bus to town. The only small negative things were, carpets in room and landings need cleaned. Pool towells need renewed and also white room towells. I know it is getting to end of season but things need replaced people are paying a lot of money for their holidays. But everything else really good and we will be back to stay at this hotel again.

We stayed here a few years ago and had a nice stay but this time we had a fabulous stay! The attention to detail across the hotel was outstanding, the food was varied and very good. However, it was the staff who really made this hotel stand out. All staff from room cleaners to leadership were welcoming and helpful. We will be back! Shout out to exceptional service from Hassan, Sergio, Love, Basiliio, Jana and Vasco.

Overall stay experience was positive, the rooms were average, nothing to write home about. The location was 20 minute walk from the main city of Lagos. Would not recommend doing all inclusive unless you plan on strictly staying at the hotel and not leaving to explore the city and local restaurants. Dinner at the hotel was very enjoyable with excellent service from Sami and Hassan. They did a great job taking care of myself and my wife throughout our stay.
