Hotels With Pool in Faro District, Portugal

I stayed at The Editory by the Sea Lagos for two nights during a trip to Lagos, Portugal. I enjoyed it very much, thanks to the very friendly and professional service of the staff (shoutout to Felipe at reception) and also in part to the range of facilities/amenities at the hotel. The breakfast and dinner service was really good - great food and service. The outdoor swimming pool and gym is well maintained. The room was incredibly clean, tidy, and cozy. If I visit Lagos, I'd definitely book again. I would recommend the hotel for couples and families who are looking to vacation in Lagos, seeking modern style and sophistication.

The hotel is not at the city center of Lagos but in a walking distance. The facilities are generally good, but some of them are pretty old and need some repair. For example the toilet door in my room could not close properly as it’s cracked. The breakfast is not too bad. The swimming pools are nice.

The sea view room offered great views, and the spacious balcony was perfect for enjoying the ocean scenery. It was also very convenient to access the swimming pool and sun loungers right downstairs, and the beach was easily reachable. The only downsides were that the room's interior facilities felt a bit outdated, with a last-century style, and the air conditioning wasn't very effective, making the room stuffy. The duvet, which was a blanket sandwiched between two sheets, was either too hot or too cold, and the pillows were too high, making for an uncomfortable sleep. I hope these can be improved. On the positive side, the breakfast had a wide variety of choices, and the restaurant was just a few steps from the beach with really nice sea views.

Not my first time in Faro but chose this hotel for the rooms with balcony marina view. The hotel has a rich history and has been around since 1960s and its undergoing refurbishments in some areas. The old rooms look dated and could do with better cleaning as previous occupant’s hair was found in the bathroom. We loved the design & aesthetic looks of the new refurbished areas such as the spa, bathrooms, gym, pool & sauna but shame that there was a water leak in the indoor pool ceiling and rusty bits on the stainless steel railings. Considering it’s completed in Aug 2025, the hotel may need to do more due diligence to ensure the safety of guests. As a non Portuguese speaker, I felt that the check-in staff can make more efforts in being warm and welcoming. I noticed that this hotel is one of the few hotels ive been that check-in staffs are seated instead of standing, making the process somehow casual & less welcoming. I also called in to make a request for a late check out and received a hostile response by a lady who said ‘No. We need the room back’. We just got married the day before arriving & we are here to also celebrate my honeymoon & partner’s birthday. Weeks prior to arriving, I put in a request if the hotel could do a birthday special for him but this was not acknowledged. As an avid traveller who has stayed in many hotels around the world, I am a little dissapointed with the lack of personalised attentive service provided by the hotel. If the view & location isn’t a concern, I recommend the nearby 3HB hotel. We enjoyed our stay there. AP Eva senses have a great deal of potential, but they may be complacent at going beyond, as they are currently the only hotel at Faro marina. Additional employees like the elder gentleman pianist & hotel hairdresser were the warmest I’ve come across.

Lovely hotel with delicious breakfast. Small swimming pool

Very nice hotel with great services I regret however that access to the wellness area is chargeable while it is impossible to enjoy the outdoor swimming pool in winter

A beautiful hotel surrounded by magnificent gardens. We'd barely arrived when something unimaginable happened: a blackout on the Iberian Peninsula. The hotel managers responded in an exemplary manner: they provided information, provided everyone with a water bottle, and served cold meals and free grilled dishes in the restaurant in the evenings. The emergency generator also ran for a few hours. So, despite the uncertainty, we felt well looked after. Enjoying the sun by the beautiful pool area is also nothing to be sniffed at. The breakfast buffet was varied, including a good selection for vegans and vegetarians. We really enjoyed, among other things, the delicious, sweet fruit.

The hotel is very comfortable and the rooms are very comfortable. It is well parked at some apples at June dates and the centre pila nearby. The worst thing: if you are with children is not recommended because stairs are dangerous. The jacuzzi was broken. The room was struck with a TV, the shower and the bathroom were broken danced but it could be used. They don't make room, they don't change towels, they don't pick up the paperboard, I think they change it weekly. Premiere the aesthetic comfort and we end up uncomfortable with the placement of clothes, baggage and bathroom.

Spotlessly clean hotel with extremely welcoming staff. Swimming pools were a bit cold but that’s the only downside. Breakfast selection was very comprehensive. It’s a slight downhill walk into town so prepare for an uphill walk back. 2nd time here and will definitely be back.

Fantastic hotel. Stayed in a room with a small balcony and sea view. The sound of the crashing waves are very loud when you open the doors so if you’re not acquired to noise then you may want to choose a room not facing the sea. The room Itself was very clean and well maintained although the shower tiles had some dark marks on the grouting, doors and panels were spotless. The breakfast was very good but was almost the same each morning, to be fair, what else can you eat other than the usual stuff? Evening meals were lovely with a different choice each day but I personally found some dishes a little salty. This hotel is perfect if you want to just chill and relax and take long walks. The promenade is very flat with lovely a sunset each evening. As we went in the winter it was very quiet with plenty of room to manoeuvre. People are very friendly especially in the cafes and restaurants. There are many eateries but if you like coffees and cakes , oh and sushi, it is heaven. If this hotel had a few more facilities like an indoor pool and spa it would be perfect. I wouldn’t say that it is an ideal hotel if you have kids but the promenade would be nice for them to release some energy.
