Pleasantly surprised and loved our stay here

Review of Hotel Luz Bay
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 30 Aug 2024
With some of the reviews on here we were apprehensive about our stay….
Let’s say I was pleasantly surprised and couldn’t fault the place.
The bed had bed toppers and was very comfortable, the air con worked perfectly, the fridge was full sized with enough space for ice in the freezer…. The balcony had table and chairs and had a perfect view of the pools. The bathroom was clean and the shower was excellent….
The pools were superb… one for small kids one for families and an adult pool too which had a depth of 2.8 m….. which is why the diving school ( which is on site) use. They come for approximately only 1 hr in the morning (11-12) and was interesting to watch.
The position of the hotel is excellent ….more or less a flat walk round to bars and restaurants and the beach.
In Luz there are 2 excellent supermarkets so you could stock up on beers drinks food and nibbles….. and keep them in the good sized fridge….
The staff were friendly and approachable… the cleaners were available every day…. And the towels were plenty.
I would recommend this place and look forward to returning again .
Thank you for a great stay x

    Booked a standard room ,but was given superior room which is fine but when we arrived, the room smelled of dusky damp only to find out there's black mould on the wall and the aircon was full of it.
    The room was dirty and outdated. Complained to reception they moved us to better room, which I'm thankful of. Staff were friendly but sorry to say definitely not a 4 star hotel. No bar ,no drinks facility, breakfast was basic, pool needs upgrade, the rooms need upgrade. Apart from being very close to beach that's only good thing about this place.

    This is not a 4 star hotel. There is no staff around. My room has not been cleaned for more than 2 days, even after reminding the reception. For the reception you can only reach them personally as the phone in the room is not working. The hotel itself is old and very basic. There is nothing to do here other than sleeping. No bar or restaurant available. You can buy soda from the fridge at the reception.

    Arrived latish at night. Was shown where our room was, along a very dark path so trying to negotiate 2 suitcases was difficult. Room was spacious and clean but we had no chairs on our balcony and did not get these for over 24 hours albeit asking reception a few times. Breakfast, we thought, was good. Plenty choice and clean breakfast bar and lovely staff in there. No pool bar, no evening meals that were advertised had you wanted them. A stroll to the beachfront for food was sometimes inconvenient if you were having a chill day by the pool. Sunbeds tired and as stated previously scuba divers just decided to take over the pool when they felt like it. All in all we enjoyed our holiday at this hotel but would certainly not recommend or rush back

    Room tip: Bring warm clothing for night, wind gets up at approx 2030 hrs and it is cold and that was mid July

    I have been for 4 nights so far. The hotel itself is in a great location and the air con s decent but hat is pretty much the end of the positives. The hotel is of and run down. The rooms are dusty and basic. I’m sure there are better beds in hostels. The breakfast choices for a 4 star are shameful. Pool area needs cleaned and beds are so uncomfortable. I’m sitting at the pool and 10 scuba divers have taken over the pool WTAF! There is NO pool bar and the reception staff are weird and don’t speak to you.

    Room tip: Book elsewhere

    We liked it a lot, at the moment you can see that they are renovating the hotel.
    The hotel is very cosy and comfortable, the atmosphere is very peaceful, the breakfast is fantastic, it's perhaps one of the best hotels we've stayed in to relax from the outside world.
    Don't expect a luxury hotel! It's a 4-star beach hotel.
    We'll be back for sure!
