Labranda Bahía de Lobos

The hotel impresses with its cleanliness, spacious rooms, and convenient location near amenities. Guests praise the friendly staff and well-maintained facilities, including two pools and rooms with pool views.

Bahia de Lobos is situated just off the far end of the ***** 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.

My husband & I had a very pleasant week stay. Our only complaints were the WiFi was really poor to connect to & very slow if we were able to join the WiFi. Check in was also slightly disappointing due to only having 1 member of staff on the desk. At other times when we walked through reception there had been 2, sometimes 3 staff members available. The hotel was very well cleaned & all staff were very happy, smiley & approachable. Food & drink variety was on par. Plenty of shops within walking distance. Lots of people review the hotel, not many people comment on the weather. We found the weather warm with cloudy & sunny days as a mixture. Evenings were pleasant & we didn’t need trousers or a cardy/jacket. I’m only writing that comment because if you’re like me, you’d like to pack in preparation. I know the hotel can’t control the weather . Thank you to all the staff that worked tirelessly every day & for maintaining a very high standard.
