Marina Club Lagos Resort

"Travelled from the UK late September and although arriving quite late in the evening, we had a very warm welcome in a lovely reception area. We had a one bedroom apartment with a pool view which was very spacious and clean but some would say a little tired. We stayed b & b. The breakfast was adequate but a little uninspiring compared to other hotels we have had in Portugal which was a bit disappointing. The location of the hotel though was excellent. Right by the Marina and a short walk to the old town. Restraunts, very good ones, were also right on the doorstep. The pool area and bar areas were very clean and there was plenty of space and beds. All the staff were welcoming, polite and cheerful. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and, yes, we would return."

"We booked a three bedroomed apartment directly with Marina Club Resort in Block C. We arrived at midday but check in wasn't until 4pm so we left our luggage and returned at 3.30pm and were provided access to our apartment. Our booking stated a second floor room but we were actually provided with a ground floor apartment. Although the apartment (C009) was a little more in the shade than the higher floors and had less of a view, it was lovely and large and spacious, well equipped and spotlessly clean and provided direct access to the pool and sunbed area, which was nice. Housekeeping were great and it was lovely to come back to freshly made beds every day. We left a tip each day but they didn't take it until we left a note highlighting it was for them :-) The aircon was effective. The reception staff were very helpful for the limited contact we had with them, and they even supplied a complementary bottle of fizz for my sons birthday which was a lovely surprise. The pool was nice with a shallow end and deep area but it was very chilly as other reviewers have said. I enjoyed a swim every morning before breakfast - which can only be described as "bracing"! Although it wasn't really an issue for me I could see others really struggled with the water temperature at various points in the day - especially those with small children. There were plenty of sunbeds at this time of the year and even though there were notes asking people not to "reserve" the beds with towels, there were the regular early morning sunbed grabbers for the sunbeds with an umbrella. I didn't see any management of this whilst we were there. It didn't affect us and as a family of four adults we never struggled to get a sunbed when we needed one no matter what time of the day it was. Towels could be collected and deposited at the entrance to the spa. We didn't use the breakfast facilities or the bar as went to the marina or town most nights for brunch or dinner. The only minor issue we had was the Wi-Fi connection. The signal was weak and regularly dropped out. Such a nice resort really should be able to provide stable Wi-Fi for it's guests. We also had to deal with a couple of large bugs which got into our apartment (because of its location on the ground floor!) but it wasn't a massive issue. The complex is in a good location with the marina and facilities directly outside, a well stocked supermarket 10 minute walk away and the old town centre a 20 minute walk away which had some great shops and restaurants. There are some building works not too far away from the complex but we didn't have any issues with noise or disruption whilst we were there. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this complex. The facilities and staff were great."
