To start this review our experience could be 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ however the front desk person by the name Rita ruined our experience at the front desk during check in process! She had a terrible attitude and answered all our questions in NO and rude manner. When we asked her why she is so rude she said we better talk to the manager and literally went hiding in the back! The front desk manager Luis and the rest of the staff Oleg and another gentleman were really nice and accommodating! The hotel is clean, the rooms are clean, the bed is comfortable and the food is delicious with huge selection of traditional and modern cuisines! The beach is near by and pristine clean! The water at the pool is little cold in October but it’s manageable the lady with entertainment team who led water activities had an awesome energy! Everything was excellent but the front desk experience was unacceptable!

Big disappointment!!!
This hotel was a big disappointment especially for the amount of money it cost! The room was disgusting. Our sheets were ripped, there was never enough towels or toilet paper given. The housekeeper dropped her name badge and my husband was stuck with the pin from it in the middle of the night on the bed😔.The room had absolutely zero character. There were no pictures on the wall. The bathroom situation was ridiculous…the same door was used to close the cell-like shower and the toilet area, ugh!!! The carpeting in the hallway needed to be changed probably years ago. It was musty and dirty. The only saving grace was that the breakfast was good & the pool area was very nice. I will never stay at an Iberostar again. Total waste of a lot of money.

Visited Lagos 8.12.23 for 4 nights. Great location, nice pool area, nice staff, wonderful for families. Only complaint is the lack dining option. Understanding that most people eat out. We did arrive later in the evening for our first night and the only option was to eat buffet dinner at 10pm when we just wanted a light snack. All in all would recommend this hotel.

The breakfast buffet was amazing, the staff were delightful, the vistas were beautiful, the pool areas were large and easy to get a bed, nice activity options as well. It would take at least 45 minutes to walk to Lagos centre or a 7 minute car ride. I would say the carpets throughout need to be replaced as do the pool deck beds. Overall, a pleasant stay!

There is only one restaurant and it’s buffet style. The service was slow and I had to personally go up to the bar to order drinks as servers were often not coming around to see if anyone needs anything.

The staff made the stay wonderful. Andre at the front desk and Vanessa in Housekeeping were very helpful when we needed to change rooms as the one given was not at all satisfactory. Need vegan / plant based options in the buffet. Thank you

Hot tub must be scheduled to be able to use ahead of time. Buffet food was mediocre at best. They tell you at the front desk room service is included when you check-in but when you check in will charge you for all room service. Pools all close at 7pm. Bar closes at 11 you can even sit in the lobby past midnight.

Excellent All-Round
From check-in to check-out, this hotel was first class. The staff were well-trained, friendly and efficient. The breakfast and dinner buffets were of good quality, plenty of variety and routinely topped-up. Cleanliness throughout the hotel was outstanding (lots of high gloss surfaces and all spotless). The room was also of high-quality, spotlessly clean and comfortable. The only shortcoming was a slight lack of storage space in the room. We travel very 'light' but, even for us, some additional drawer-space would have been welcome. The hotel is approximately 2 miles from Lagos and is in a great beachfront location, ideal for walks on the sand and within half of the railway station. Overall, highly recommended and would certainly re-visit.

This hotel was like a cruise ship on land. Big, spacious, lots of public areas. Hotel offers only all you can eat dinner or expensive room service. The hot tub and steam room was an extra fee of 15e per person per hour. In room coffee was an extra fee. It is out of city with very limited amenities nearby. Meals off the property were difficult.

In an older hotel now and missing our stay at the iberostar so much. We slept so well and it was such a comfortable stay from the free cold water stations to the wonderful breakfasts. It’s a bit of a walk to town but we didn’t mind that. We spent 10 nights there and are hoping to go back! They charge for coffee refills in the room but we just grabbed a bunch of coffee pods from the grocery store in town.

Reception and lounge area was far too hot as air con was not adequate or maybe even switched off although in the rooms it was fantastic. Previously the gym and steam room were available without having to pay an extra fee- I was not happy about this at all as for the price and a five star the steam room should have been free with the indoor pool. Repairs needed to public toilet doors on hotel. Great location

The staff were all courteous and helpful and the hotel is clean with a focus on being eco-friendly. We had a problem with the air conditioning in our room, which was one speed and a hair dryer, which blew up. This was quickly replaced by a better version. Another bugbear was towels being left to claim sunbeds before going off to have a meal. We have stayed in other hotels where this is not tolerated and would recommend a tougher approach.

Iberostar Selection Lagos is located close to the beach and most of its rooms overlook the waters. Amenities are excellent. It has an excellent breakfast which was built into the rate and a great dinner buffet which we had to pay for additionally. This is a perfect place to relax and enjoy but when one is in the Algarve region it is better to head outside and explore the beaches and the mesmerizing cliffs. So there could be cheaper options which would be better value for money The hotel has minimal free parking so you will likely need to get a free spot. Restaurants are close by. The Algar Seco, Ponta Piedade and several attractions are within a 30 minute drive. The hotel needs to work on its check in process which is painfully slow and consumes too much time even though they do welcome you with a drink
