Labranda Bahía de Lobos

Personnel de l’hôtel parlant français, à l’écoute et serviable aussi bien à la réception que du côté restauration. 2 piscines au choix, une plus au calme que l’autre selon les envies. Grande chambre très fonctionnelle et propre avec vue sur piscine (ou pas). Hôtel bien situé à côté des magasins, des restaurants et bars. La nourriture était savoureuse quoique manquant un peu de diversité (j’étais en demie pension). Excellent rapport qualité/prix.

We will go back here. Hotel is spotless. Rooms spacious. Pools great. No shortage of sunbeds but it was January. Pool bar great. Evening entertainment a bit iffy. The juggler would have been great for a kids party but the girl singer was good. Breakfast and lunch choices fabulous. Dinner let it down with hot Buffett but salads and desserts were great. we had to ask for more milk and coffee for room but freely given. Pool towels are free you just pay a euro to change if needed. Good animation team. We had a lovely holiday

Bahia de Lobos is situated just off the far end of the strip near the Las Palmeras shopping centre. It takes approximately 15 minutes to walk to the harbour with numerous shops, bars and restaurants along the way, and about the same to the nearest beach. There is a local bus stop about 5 minutes away. All walks are along flat terrain. The reception is to the right of the entrance which opens up into a large lobby area with a fountain and plenty of seating. The information boards of the various tour companies can be found here along with free coffee machine. On checking in, you are given a map showing the layout of the hotel. The reception is manned 24 hours – any questions and they will help out. After exiting the lobby, the main pool is to your right and the restaurants and entertainment area to your left. A second (quiet) pool is further away tucked amongst the accommodation. Both pools have plentiful sunbeds which are extremely comfortable. The pool bar is situated next to the main pool. Unfortunately, there is no bar next to the quiet pool – maybe that’s why it is quiet! The grounds are very clean and tidy with some interesting cacti and succulents in the gardens which are well maintained. The accommodation is in low rise blocks which blend in well with the surroundings. Our room was next to the quiet pool. It was very clean, spacious with fridge, safe and air conditioning. There was a large screen TV and a very comfortable sofa. The bathroom had a large walk-in shower. The patio contained a table and two chairs with a view to one of the volcanic craters in the distance. It was very quiet with no disturbance. Breakfast was served in the Lobos Beach Restaurant next to the main pool. Evening meals were in the Botanic Restaurant down a flight of stairs next to the entertainment complex. If you have mobility issues or a pushchair to carry there is a lift you can use – it is tucked away on the opposite side of the terrace. It could do with better signage – if you can’t find it ask a member of staff. Food is buffet style and of very good quality. You would be hard pushed not to find something to satisfy you. Evening entertainment is in Faro’s Club where the main bar is located. We found the entertainment good with singers, a magician, and karaoke. There is also a daytime program if you wish to stay on the complex. In summary, this is a very good hotel which is kept very clean and tidy. We found the staff friendly and engaging. We would have no hesitation in returning here.
