Beautiful property with big rooms with amazing views. Only request would be to have the upper pool “adult only” for a portion of the stay as there were a lot of children.

Property was beautiful and room was great. I wish pool had been heated. I tried to get in but it was too cold. No one else was in either. Also I don’t feel the amenities listed on Expedia matched hotel. There was 1 restaurant/bar-no beach bars on site and pool bar was the same indoor restaurant/bar. Expedia description needs updating.

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.
