Agua Hotels Vila Branca
We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel in Lagos. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and very convenient for exploring the area.

Hotel Algarve Casino
Apart from a burnt-out overhead light in the bathroom, my room and experience were top-notch. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. The buffet breakfast was superb, and the setting—right along the beachfront—could not have been any better. I highly recommend the Algarve Casino.

Carvi Beach Hotel
Clean room, the beds were’t as comfortable for our preference, too firm. The fridge was confusing to use, not get cold, only a little bit. Bathroom was excellent. Staff was very nice. We would have loved a coffee set up in the room but their breakfast was fantastic.
