Estrela da Luz

Very nice apartment style hotel, lots of living space and was a great location for us to explore the western Algarve. Walking distance to a number of restaurants.

All very good

Really enjoyed our stay for all the reasons I’ve listed.

We stayed at app E1B. All roms are huge, except the toilet which is a little tight. The place is about 5 min walking distance. Groceries are at walking distance. Very good restaurant around, we had a dinner at the Indian restaurant called Pashmina. The quality of the food at breakfast is good but a little repetitive from day to day. There are a washing machine and dishwasher and all the equipment you need to cook and serve. Be careful, there is no salt and pepper in the appartement. We had a parking spot in the basement but our car size didn’t allow to park easily so we left the car outside. The resort is very clean and pool are very nice and water is clear. I would recommend this resort without any hesitation.

Estrella da Luz was nice. Staff was great at check in and breakfast. We had a great time

Room is big

Had a wonderful 3-day stay. Hotel was well maintained and close to beach, restaurants, grocery store and points of interest. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent especially the fresh squeezed orange juice and made to order eggs. Pool and weight room were excellent as well. Would definitely stay there again.

Our room was very spacious.it had everything and more we needed. The breakfast was a very good way to start our day. The breakfast staff were wonderful. Check out is at 10 am.Room keys were already not working when coming back from breakfast at 9:45. We were refused a later check out from Joanna the night prior. They were able to keep our bags and able to use the pool till our 1 pm departure.

Great property with large apartments. The reception staff were very helpful.

Superb studio apartment - very spacious and well appointed. Staff helpful and efficient. Good position , an easy stroll to the beach area and bars, restaurants etc.

Wonderful location, spotless apartment, superb staff. Would go back in a shot.

After the pleasant surprise of the high ceilings on our 3rd floor apartment there were little niggly things that dragged the experience down. The TV was very tiny for such a large living room. We had to move the furniture closer to watch TV. The headroom on one side of the loft master bedroom was inadequate (I'm 6' tall). Not enough light in the large ensuite. The dishwasher door needed to be forced to close properly. All this small stuff that was wrong kept popping up - it's like the design wasn't thought out 100%, just got to 90% instead.

Could not fault this complex. The apartments were spacious and very well equipped, clean and the staff were very helpful. This complex impressed us so much that we are intending to return at the end of the season for another week of relaxation, comfort and good food.. Local buses to take you to other resorts in the area.

Great ! Got upgraded to a larger apartment. Arrived very late but security guard was waiting for us at reception. Short walk to the beach , Church , restaurants and the Spar supermarket .

I stayed on my own for five nights at the beginning of Dec, excellent roomy apartment , very well equipped, good underfloor heating, just two slight negatives ; the bed was a little hard, but as it was warm I slept on top of the duvet which was more comfitable also there is very little hanging space in the basic apartment, ok for me on my own for a short stay but not so good for a couple on a longer trip. I had a look at the one bedroom apartments while I was there and that had an excellent full size wardrobe, when I go back with my husband I will defiantly pay the extra an book that instead of the basic apartment . The position of the hotel is ok, five min walk to the beach but quite a step hill to come back, not too bad if your fit. A fair amount of reasturants/bars near by plus two good size supermarkets if your self catering. Luz itself is a pleasant village that has a brilliant beach and is just a short bus ride away from busy Lagos. Overall a really nice break.

Wifi constantly throws you out. Need to sign in many times a day Otherwise all very good. Indoor pool is excellent

Had a fabulous week would recommend it to others

nice apartments,well equipped, but up a rather steep hill with no supermarket on the complex so water etc had to be carried up hill.

Second time in this hotel, although stayed in Praia Da Luz many times before. Very happy with facilities, service and especially location, 5 minutes walk to the beach and bars, shops etc. It's a great base to explore the Western/Central Algarve region and we will be back again!

This complex did not live upto *5 star status. I could not use the balconies due to the high winds, they never eased.Informed by management it was due to the wind direction, for the 1st time ever, changing direction.I checked via weather websites nothing supported this claim, the direction of the tree trunks also suggested the wind blew towards the Atlantic Ocean. The internet is poor, every time I entered a site it crashed, I need the internet when on holiday,I could not even view my security cameras from the complex. Had to walk down the hill every day to local pubs for a good internet signal, this resulted in additional costs as I needed to purchase a drink every time I visited.The desktop computers at reception did not work.The complex has 2 outside pools (1 for families & 1 for over 16yrs).There was a constant noise around the pools which sounded like a jumbo jet in the distance taxi-ing down a run-way which was very annoying.I discovered the noise was coming from the family pool area, there was 3/4 large condensers located at ground level, the noise was a lot worse at the lower pool, not ideal for families in my opinion. We decided to use the local beaches rather than the complex pool. De Luz is a quiet location, if you need lots of bars & restaurants you need to travel to Lagos which is a 20min bus ride or 10min drive.In my opinion this is a good 3*+ complex with 5* prices.This complex is off my list to re-visit or recommend
