We had the most incredible holiday staying at the Iberostar Selection Lagos for 10days with our 11month old daughter. The hotel itself was so clean and beautifully maintained with an array of comfortable inside and outside sitting areas and swimming pools which we made good use of.
The staff were amongst the friendliest we have ever experienced and greeted us with smiles and assistance wherever we went. We arrived late in the evening and Jason and Manuel at the front desk insisted we go down to enjoy dinner before going through the check in process, and that set the tone for how accommodating everyone was during the whole visit. We had a ground floor room with a Bali bed and it was not only beautifully clean and spacious, the outside space was invaluable while having our baby with us.
We had chosen to go all-inclusive and that was the best decision as the food at the buffet restaurant and snack bar were absolutely delicious and we sampled an array of cocktails and hot beverages on offer. Sergio, Juan and Joshua were our Maitre Ds and they greeted us with a smile at every mealtime, even making a special fuss of our little girl and making us feel so welcome and special in the dining hall. The wait staff couldn't have been friendlier or more happy to help including Jedilsom, Tatiana, Vivienne, Nathalia, Carla and Andressa, their happy demeanour brightened our days! A special mention goes to Shalini and Ravi who made the most delicious omelettes for us every morning and were more than happy to chat while we waited. Finally a special mention to Flavio who learnt very quickly that we were Pina Colada fans and did not hesitate to provide us with one at every passing moment!
The outside space at the hotel was beautiful and the walk to the nearby beach so easy and quick. The beach was stunning and the boardwalk took us all the way into Lagos. Lagos itself was a gorgeous seaside town and is definitely worth a future visit. All in all we had a fantastic time and cannot thank the staff enough for making our holiday so special and fun. We would love to return in the future.
Lots of love and thanks from Phoebe, Andy and Ayla Russell x

We stayed here for a week as all inclusive guests and thought that the hotel was fantastic. The staff were excellent, everyone was friendly and helpful and did everything they could to ensure that we had a good holiday.
The food in the buffet was generally excellent, they had a good range of food at each meal. We especially enjoyed the wide range of seafood and cheeses and the grilled to order meats and fish. Once again all staff are super attentive to ensure you have a great meal! One of our party had a gluten intolerance and she was able to have a good selection at each meal. Most dishes have the allergens clearlh marked by each dish but it would be good if these were against each dish.
The hotel is very modern and clean. Its situated to have fantastic views over the ocean and their are multiple bars to take advantage of this which include a good range of drinks. We enjoyed the short walk down to the beach where a boardwalk takes you all the way info Lagos!
Finally, the hotel was great in supporting us with additional accessibility requirements including an acessible wetroom and helping us source a wheelchair to rent. The hotel is very easy to get around in a chair or with a stick and staff are all generous in providing any possible extra support

We had the most incredible experience at Iberostar Selection Lagos Algarve! From the moment we arrived, the staff were so warm, friendly, and welcoming. They offered us a drink while sorting out our rooms, which was such a thoughtful gesture after a long journey. They even went out of their way to arrange our rooms right next door to our friends, which made the trip even more special.
It was my cousin’s birthday during our stay, and the staff truly went above and beyond. They surprised us with a beautiful birthday cake and champagne delivered straight to our room – such a thoughtful touch that made the day unforgettable.
The hotel is spotless and beautifully maintained. The food was incredible, with so many delicious options, and we loved enjoying our meals while taking in the stunning beach views – it made every meal feel special. Our fridge was also kept fully stocked with drinks, sweets, and snacks, which was a lovely extra touch.
Both the indoor pool and spa area are amazing – so relaxing and perfect for unwinding. The outdoor pool area is just as beautiful, with plenty of space to soak up the sun and enjoy the views.
Honestly, we couldn’t fault a single thing. The service, the atmosphere, the food, and the little thoughtful touches made this trip unforgettable. If you’re visiting Lagos, Portugal, this is the place to stay – 1000% recommend, and we can’t wait to come back!

We loved our stay here! The buffet was top quality with tons of variety, especially the desserts — there was even a station where they made them fresh on the spot. Breakfast had loads of options, including choices for different diets and intolerances, which was super thoughtful.
As returning guests, we got a surprise gift box in our room with little souvenir figures, nice detail.
The pools were spacious and never felt crowded, and the main one was perfect for swimming laps in peace. Overall, a super relaxing, quiet hotel with lots to enjoy.
My favourite part of the hotel and the room, without a doubt, was the stunning view of Meia Praia. Whether day or night, there’s a real sense of peace and calm, with the gentle sound of the sea in the background — it truly helps you disconnect and fully relax.
