Great place for an extended vacation in the Lagos Area. The hotel was 15 min walk from Pais da Luz right along the ocean . The hotel was quiet. The pool area is inviting. The staff was unassuming but professional and accommodating. I would recommend it highly .

Great relaxing stay at Vila Luz
It is a great hotel and nice location. Our contact was with Juan as he checked us in and occasionally communicated during the stay. Not much of other interactions. Rooms were large and clean. A very safe and relaxing place and managed to go see many places from there as we had a car. The only downside was the breakfast start time was at 8:30 and we also felt that they could be more generous with variety of the fruits. The fresh squeezed orange juice was a hit. Overall a great stay

My review is from. North American perspective. The staff are amazing and super helpful. The location outside of Lagos in Luz was thought to be a negative at first but was a bonus. The only downside is the value of this property based on the condition of the hotel. Although clean, the hotel rooms are tired. Staff is definitely 9.3 but the hotel condition is 7.2 and the total value is more like 7.

We have stayed at this hotel 3 times, we love it. The rooms are studio style with plenty of room and spotlessly clean. We always pay the little extra for a balcony and view which are lovely and peaceful. The walk into town is fine though the walk back is uphill. Lots of restaurants and cafes in town and the hotel has a nice bar too. The pool is lovely, the breakfast is good, the staff are pleasant, in fact we have no complaints.

Great pool with nice view of the coast. Room was excellent (Panoramic Studio). There is no real restaurant on the property though they serve breakfast & some pre-prepared food (pizza, etc). Mixed friendliness from staff but no one was rude. Guy who checked us in was the best. Easy walk to town to restaurants, etc. A bit far to the beach, but doable. Overall a good place to relax.

Nice place but overrated ..... enjoyed our stay
Very nice place. Clean friendly staff. Very good layout around pool and grounds. Be sure to request a room with a balcony with view of ocean and pool if available. Good breakfast though nothing special. Beds were terrible and bed coverings worse. Air conditioning / heater were so loud we could not use them when sleeping so froze during the night... even with light blankets provided.

Hi Ellen, Thank you for your review. It is our understanding that you booked a room without balcony or views, and upon your arrival we gave you an upgrade to a room with balcony with a pool view free of charge. Breakfast is slightly restricted due to safety measures however there is a choice given to our guests to what they would prefer to have. We do not have a complaint registered for the Air conditioning / heater/ blankets / beds for the duration of your one night stay. We continue to strive to better improve our guest experience and very much look forward to welcoming you back to our Hotel.
