This hotel is outdated and doesn't deserve its 5-star rating; it's more like a 2 or 3-star property. We stayed for 2 nights and didn't have any hot water, so we had to take cold showers in winter at a supposedly 5-star hotel! I mentioned this at the reception to request a commercial gesture, but the manager wasn't there. I left my number, and so far, no one has contacted me! The breakfast was decent enough, and the beach view was absolutely lovely. When I made my reservation, I requested an upstairs room, but we were given a ground-floor room. I'm disappointed with this stay and wouldn't recommend it.
We had a fantastic stay at The Editory by the Sea in Lagos. The location is perfect—just steps from the beach and a short walk to the old town. The hotel has a modern, minimalist feel with beautiful interiors and calming views of the ocean.
The service was warm and professional throughout our stay. Staff were friendly, helpful, and always available if we needed anything, without being intrusive.
Our room was clean, stylish, and comfortable, with thoughtful touches that made it feel more luxurious. The pool area was lovely—quiet, relaxing, and a great spot to unwind after exploring the Algarve.
Breakfast was a highlight! Plenty of variety with fresh local options, from fruit and pastries to cooked dishes. We also had dinner at the hotel one night and were really impressed with the quality and presentation.
Overall, The Editory was the perfect mix of design, comfort, and location. We’d absolutely recommend it for anyone looking to stay in Lagos!

Clean and modern building. This apartment has a great lobby and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The units are also extremely clean and have a lot of closet space. The beach, restaurants and shopping center were all within a 10 minute walk from our apartment. I highly recommend it.
Just remember you don’t have the view of the ocean, but as I said the water is just around the corner from the building.
I had an amazing stay at Vale d’El Rei Hotel & Villas. The property is absolutely beautiful—nestled in a peaceful and scenic location that feels like a true escape. The gardens are lush and well-maintained, and the overall atmosphere is tranquil and inviting.
My room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with a lovely view and all the amenities I needed. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. I also really enjoyed the breakfast—great variety and fresh options each morning.
The pool area was a highlight, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the Algarve. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or a relaxing break, Vale d’El Rei is a fantastic choice.
Hotel in general pleasant, the large rooms with a simple but beautiful design! The rest of the hotel needed new decor to fit with the rooms! The area is quiet with beach nearby! In improving cleaning, we noticed several mosquitoes dead on the wall when we arrived that could have been cleaned and did not!
I wanted to thank you for the upgrade we had, we went to a suite and didn't know .
I was sorry that the air conditioning was not working very well. The care of the very weak. I made a question: how the buffet level of dinner worked, they didn't know, but I loved the rest.
Check was fast, friendly and efficient. Room was very good. Large bed, safe balcony, very clean, tea and coffee making facilities in the room.Rituals toiletries in the bathroom. Breakfast was a hot and cold buffet with good choices in all areas. Pool looked clean but didn't use it. Dinner menu had a good selection of dishes but again did not use.
The best thing was breakfast.
The room was changed to us saying it was superior, but the room we had reserved was refurbished and with shower, and the room we received no. And even though we went down and explained that we reserved it so for the difficulty not to use bathroom but they said they had no other. So a big negative point.
And as regards the facilities, say they have a outdoor swimming pool, indoor ...(this is part of the spa that you have to pay and doesn't say it anywhere, but when you arrive there. The hotel was very good, but it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good, and it was very good

It's a great place to take a morning walk or a leisurely walk or jog in front of a beautiful beach. The spa is divided into time slots and requires a fee.
A beautiful hotel surrounded by magnificent gardens. We'd barely arrived when something unimaginable happened: a blackout on the Iberian Peninsula. The hotel managers responded in an exemplary manner: they provided information, provided everyone with a water bottle, and served cold meals and free grilled dishes in the restaurant in the evenings. The emergency generator also ran for a few hours. So, despite the uncertainty, we felt well looked after. Enjoying the sun by the beautiful pool area is also nothing to be sniffed at. The breakfast buffet was varied, including a good selection for vegans and vegetarians. We really enjoyed, among other things, the delicious, sweet fruit.
Very Good

GGuest UserGot the Marina view, worth i. Was so beautiful. It was my birthday and they catered very nicely to me to make my day special. I would definitely stay again. All the staff were nice and welcoming and very helpful in suggestions of places to go. Highly recommend this hotel!
GGuest UserThis hotel is very recent. Beautiful, elegant and well-equipped in terms of services. What doesn't strike us as normal, however, is the lack of little touches for a hotel in this category. No shampoo, no q-tips, just the same gel for washing hands and in the shower. No shower cap. An empty fridge bar. We appreciate the coffee machine and the bottle of water, but one normal coffee capsule and 3 decaffeinated coffee capsules... not logical...
We asked for a room with a bath when we booked (we were ”upgraded” without any request on our part, on a ”marina” view, but with a shower.
As we are not very nice customers, we didn't say anything.
The bedding is good. The pillows are quite thick, which can be uncomfortable for people with sensitive necks. 3 cushions are available, but they are all very dense.
The road is very noisy, subject to a few car rodeos at night.
I've heard that the rooftop is noisy in November, but fortunately this is not the case.
The staff are friendly and respond to requests.
The breakfast buffet is very comprehensive, but for the evening menu, this type of buffet seems less attractive, but will surely please some people.
The spa is very good, at 12.5 euros for one hour (equipped swimming pool, sauna, hammam, etc.).
There is a car park at the hotel for 6 euros a night, but free parking is available 200m from the hotel by the beach.
All in all, then, this is a fine hotel with a lot of potential, but some details clearly need to be reviewed to make it really nice.
GGuest UserFree breakfast was a treat!
Our room had the discomfort of neighbors next door. They turned on the television and the snoring started after the tv was turned off, lasting for quite awhile. Annoying as we had to wake up rather early next day.
The sound proofing of the room was not good at all, another neighbor hit the walls in the morning to make others be more quiet.
We didn’t use any amenities, so no reviews possible.
The location in Tavira is excellent, one can walk easily anywhere around without loosing lots of time!
JJenA Cozy Getaway with a Few Quirks
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Block C in a wonderful location near the beach. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our time there, as the bedroom was spacious and beautifully designed. However, there were a few quirks that left us slightly puzzled.
Locating the signage for the establishment proved to be a small challenge, but it added a sense of adventure to our experience.
Unfortunately, the air conditioning in our room left something to be desired. It struggled to keep the temperature comfortably cool, and we often found ourselves feeling a bit hot. It would be great if this aspect could be improved to ensure a more comfortable stay.
Nevertheless, spending evenings on the balcony was a delightfully cozy and relaxed experience. The ambiance was inviting and lent itself to unwinding after a day of exploration. The surrounding garden and environment added to the overall charm, and we truly appreciated the pleasant surroundings.
I highly recommend visiting this place for a minimum stay of 2 to 3 days. Anything less would make the trip feel rushed, as there is so much to explore and enjoy. Despite the minor quirks, our overall experience was enjoyable and memorable. I'm grateful for the opportunity to have stayed here and would gladly return for another visit.
TTatsianaThe hotel is just 14 mins walking from the beach. The room was big and very clean. Breakfast is simple but you can find everything. There is sauna and gym, free parking.

EeM.MNice stuff and a really good experience in check in check out.
The hotel is located close to the city centre and has an honest price.
It's not the newest, as the floor and bathroom should be renovated but it's not so important if you are looking for a good, safe, cleaned place to stay for a very convenient price.
GGuest UserWe booked a resort view with a balcony got a ground floor with decking. The bedroom was a bit strange, the bathroom had a glass wall at the shower with a curtain in the bedroom covering it????? Cleaning of the room daily was very late could be as late as 3 or 4 pm in the day. We booked all inclusive, the food was amazing and there was always seemed to be food available. Buffet dinner was the best option. The drink selection was varied and non stop, all bars closed by 12 pm. Staff at reception were very friendly and helpful. Rooftop bar, pool bar and restaurant staff were friendly, but found a few of the staff in the main bar were unfriendly. I would fully recommend this hotel and are thinking of booking it again for next year.
DDL2Hotel has great facilities and was very clean, though we were disappointed to realise that due to unsafe cliffs, it no longer offered direct access to the beach. Service should really be improved for such an expensive hotel:
1. Reception gave us 2 twin beds even though we specifically made a request at booking for double bed
2. Restaurants got my coffee orders wrong on multiple occasions throughout the stay
3. During the saturday bbq night, the hostess Priscilla made up a poor excuse not to give us a poolside table even though we were one of the earliest guests there. Her excuse was the remaining poolside tables were reserved for 4 families with dogs. We didn't see a single dog during the entire course of 2 hours, and the tables were given away to other couples for reasons unknown. This incident really upset us, and the fact that she had the audacity to make up such an excuse is appalling.
4. Gratuity was charged at 7.5% for every item, which is fine but what left a bad taste in the mouth is the hotel did it without informing customers upfront.
