From check in to check out the stay met our expectations. This is a fabulous facility, well positioned and staffed by friendly informed people. This is not our first stay and will certainly not be our last.

Beautiful Baia
This is a stunning property. The location is perfect as the beach is literally a 5 minute stroll away. The property itself is quite remarkable. It truly is 5 star. The apartment was very spacious & completely up to date & modernised. It’s fully equipped with a superb fitted kitchen, washing machine, dishwasher etc. The bedroom is beautiful too & the dining room superb too. I could not recommend it enough & would return again.

Very nice units. Well equipped. Walking easy distance to beach and grocery stores. People are very friendly. We ate at the restaurant on property very good. Used the local bus to go into Lagos convient also walked the bluffs to Lagos one day and walked to another great beach town other direction ( sorry forget the name started with a B) Only one pool operational as construction on other one but it was heated 😊😊 and noise was not too bad. Much quieter town than Lagos but lots of restaurants great beach and easy to get into Lagos

Fabulous week
We had a fantastic week at this hotel with our 11 month old and 4 year old plus grandparents in two apartments. Our family apartment was like a hotel penthouse! So roomy and spacious with a huge living / dining area, separate kitchen with every appliance we could need including a washing machine and dryer. Two lovely big double bedrooms with their own bathrooms and separate air conditioning units. Huge outdoor terrace area which wrapped around with a little garden to the front. The pool area was always quiet and we loved the pool inflatable and toys free to use plus play area. The small baby pool was perfect and our older child enjoyed swimming in the larger pool too. Faultless staff at the poolside bar and restaurant - Allora.

Great rooms to a very good standard.
The rooms are large, we had a ground floor with 2 bedrooms floor plan approx. 8X20m. All fixtures, fittings, appliances and utensils are virtually new. All windows had electric shutters for security and blackout purposes. Room access is via touch key card, building access is via a gate with numerical keypad. Seems safe and secure but you cannot lock the door from within to stop it being opened by a child (for instance), security chain might be useful. Property is located on outskirts of resort, the first side road you hit when driving into Luz from Lagos. Our block was off the main complex and was about 10-15 minutes walk to the resort centre and beach. This was pretty well lit at night, but the back road is a bit exposed to traffic - not much but local drivers are bit lary. Resort was pretty quiet as this was second week in October but restaurants in the town were all pretty busy. On site restaurant is excellent quality and good value.

Fabulous place to stay where nothing is too much trouble. Staff are helpful and genuine. The apartments have what you need and more - although both apartments that we have stayed in didn't have full length mirrors - but that's certainly not a complaint. Great second stay and I would imagine we'll be back at a later point again.

Truly luxury apartments in a fine location
The quality and comfort of the apartment was exceptional but the service provided by Reception was initially very disappointing. Luz and Lagos were ideal locations for us and the Portuguese people are friendly good folk. The food in the area and the Italian restaurant on site was exceptional the only problem was it was virtually impossible to book a table.

Very comfortable apartment
We stayed here for 4 days and we were pleasantly surprised with how comfortable the apartment was. It was very spacious and had exactly what you needed in the kitchen, bathroom etc (we stayed on a self catering basis). From check in, the staff were very friendly and whenever we had any questions they were helpful, although could be improved. The pool is not the largest but we found it sufficient and very relaxing, and approx a 10 min walk away is the local beach which was fantastic. You'll need to hire sunbeds / umbrellas if you don't have your own which is pretty standard so no real issues there, and there's plenty of restaurants / cafes to take your pick from. We hired a car and would recommend as it was so easy to get into main Lagos where there's heaps more places to eat, sights to see etc, with driving not being a problem. Without a car getting taxi's may get a bit tedious, and there's not all that much going on here so may not be the best location if you don't have access to a car. The apartment offers free parking too with our own allocated space giving quick access to our room which was great, only complaint here being our allocated parking had quite a few pillars making getting out the spot rather difficult! Overall though, the rooms were fantastic and really spacious, so would really recommend for those looking to not be in the city centre as such but more of a quiet resort.

Quiet, Clean, Amazing.
Cannot find any negatives, situated near Luz Beach, lovely facilities, which were very well maintained. Fantastic staff, good food from the pool bar and onside Italian restaurant. Apartment was clean, modern and faultless. More than we could have hoped for. We even had access to the facilities before our room was ready and after we checked out, which was lovely. Only thing for us was Luz was a bit quiet in April and lacked a huge choice in restaurants. If staying for two weeks you may need to drive or be taxied to Lagos or Rocha for more choice. Food we had out in restaurants was very good though. We saw nothing but good reviews and were curious how things would be. Could not be happier with how it all went. Shame to come home.

It worked for us
A spacious one bed room apartment which was very well equipped. However, the two sets of staircases make it unsuitable for elderly people or those with young children. I found the idea of a surcharge for using the room safe bizarre, surely they should charge an extra pound or so per night and thus avoid this irritating issue. The receptionist we dealt with was first class, welcoming and professional. The three pools [adult, family, paddling] is a great feature, a pity the English guests couldn't read the complex map and to be fair a bit of signage wouldn't go amiss. All in all a really good complex but a few minor amendments would deliver a first class experience.

Wonderful gardens, quiet location
Had a super time. Hotel better than expected. Nothing too much bother for staff. Our plane was delayed and we arrived 4 hours late (1.15am). The night porter was so cheery and helped us with cases from our transfer taxi at that hour. On arrival we soon forgot our delay experiences as we were so pleased with the very spacious apartment with its underfloor heating. Well equipped and everything, but everything you need for comfort. The views onto the gardens were lovely. Much topiary and tropical plants. The outdoor pool was nice and warm, even in mid-March. The beach was a very pleasant short walk.

Everything you could ask for
It’s our second time at the Baia da Luz and we will most certainly return. • Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. • Flats are spacious, clean and quiet. • Units contain all modern amenities (washing machine, dish washer, stainless microwave and oven and utensils) along with cable TV and WIFI. • Free underground carpark and plentiful exterior parking if you simply can’t squeeze your vehicle in. • Great location near beaches, historic sites and shopping. I strongly recommend them if you are looking to spend some quality R&R family time in the area.

High quality accommodation, quieter than Estrella
Excellent apartment (2 bedroom+duplex) with loads of space, and clearly very well maintained. Ours was in block 39 which I reckon has the best views and the best location, being quiet and close to the pool area/Alloro restaurant (which was very good and reasonably priced, too). Kitchen was well equipped, everything we needed as a group of 5 adults. A five minute walk through a quiet lane to the beach. The outdoor pool was heated in December, but you'd still need to be a hardy soul as the outside air wasn't! All in all, an excellent resort. The only quibble - and I genuinely don't understand this - is that they charge you to use the safe in your apartment. Totally bonkers, the safe is no more a luxury than a kettle. Surely they can work out that keeping valuables safe removes any possibility of mistrust between customers and Baia staff? A really stupid policy, I've never seen this in any other holiday accommodation anywhere in the world. Especially at this level of quality!

Our accommodation is only a short walk to the beach and local bus stop which is convenient and ideal for us. Poolside restaurant serves really nice Italian food.

1st family holiday
Excellent resort with everything within a 10 minute walk. Very secure as there was a security gate to get into our apartment block and all of the doors/windows had roller shutters which were a great security feature and were also great to keep the sun out during the day to keep the apartment nice and cool. The Italian restaurant on site was excellent, we ate there twice during our stay. Very safe and secure pool area. Access was through a coded security gate. Excellent staff throughout the resort who were extremely helpful and were always willing to help. The apartment had everything you could possibly need. It was like a home from home! Very clean and modern with high end appliances throughout.

Excellent Appartment hotel
Very spacious 2 bedroom apartment with good quality equipment. Although subjective, The only downside was the beds and pillows which were hard and lumpy. As we were there during the Olympics, it was great having English TV channels to watch when getting ready in the morning. We hired a car and there was free garage parking with an allocated space for our apartment, which made unloading luggage really simple - just a few steps from the lift which took us right to the apartment. Swimming pools were nice although the area for sun loungers was a bit limited. However we usually found somewhere whenever we came down. Plenty of nice places to eat in Praia da Luz but the best of all is Alloro at Baia da Luz. Excellent value for money food and fantastic staff, who are great with kids. 5 minute walk to the beach along small roads(no pavements) though generally safe. Loads of water sports at the beach with 2 companies operating there. Chico Time offer better value than Beach Hut Watersports and were generally more friendly.

Fantastic holiday
We arrived early and were allowed to use the facilities whilst we waited for our room to be ready. We were upgraded to a two bedroom apartment which was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities you could wish for. Nice touches were the milk, water, oranges, dishwasher and washing machine tablets. Loved having a front and back balcony as it meant no matter what time of day there was a sunny or shady spot to sit out at. Cleaners came twice during our stay with fresh towels etc. Never had a problem getting a sunbed by the pool and loved the fact that under 16s had their own pool which meant it was always nice and quiet around the adult pool. Fantastic food at the Italian restaurant on site. Did try a couple of restaurants in town/on the beach which were also very nice. Also loved having the underground parking so the car kept nice and cool ready for if we wanted to venture out. Couldn't praise the accommodation or the staff more (except for the young lady on reception who I think was called Beatrice who could take a leaf out of her colleagues books as she was not the friendliest or most helpful of people!). All in all couldn't recommend it more. Five star experience. We will be back.

Amazing stay!
This is an amazing spot for families to stay. The apartment was superb - spacious and amazingly well stocked with crockery etc. The pools are great - a separate one for adults and children. My only gripe is the lack of sun shade especially for guests that are predominantly English / Irish! There are plenty of beds but a serious lack of sun umbrella shades. There is a pool attendant however his main concern is stopping you from eating and drinking your own food and beverages rather than preventing guests from reserving their beds leaving them unoccupied for long periods of time. That said, the beach is just a 5 minute walk and our trip was really fantastic!
