I was extremely happy with this establishment not only because of the amenities, but mainly because of the front desk staff, particularly with Patricia, who impressed me with her ‘happy person’ demeanor and her dedication to go beyond what’s expected from a welcoming agent, and by making the customer feel important. Thank you for this memorable encounter.

This hotel is in a great location, but be prepared for lots of extra charges. While we enjoyed the beautiful setting, it felt like the hotel was overly focused on making money off guests. For example, we were charged €15 just to use the in-room safe, and €1 for each clean towel. Parking is €13 per night, which is fair, but many other small things quickly added up and made the stay feel more expensive than expected. A bit more transparency and value for the price would go a long way.

Great Place!

Beautiful hotel! Service was great! The only downside is they allow smoking in the front entrances to the door so as you are walking in and standing inside you inhale a lot of smoke. The food was great! Pool location rooms perfect!

deceived by the description and photos

very unreliable description and photos, they said that is 200m to the beach but didn’t mentioned that it’s in straight line - if you want to go by walk is about 10 min (1km). we booked the room with partial view of sea (photos connected to the room was quite different, than the room we got) but in fact we had another building in front of our balcony, breakfast it’s rather industrial food, we ordered prepared on place omelette, but it was without taste, terrible

We had a lovely room at this hotel. Bit disappointed that there were only teabags provided in the room - would have been nice to have some coffee and milk. View was good but there is some building work going on next door at the moment so you can hear a-lot of drilling. Good location for restaurants. Good selection of food and drink available at the pool bar. All staff very happy and helpful.

Breath of fresh sea air

The hotel is perfectly placed to experience the theatre of the Atlantic Ocean meeting the dark lava rock that surrounds the natural pools. The rooms and restaurant all face the ocean. Free towels and pool access for guests make it inexcusable not to enjoy the warm salt water pools. Everything else is good.

New Year’s Eve stay with baby

Highly enjoyable stay at Alto Lido on New Year’s Eve. Really classy decor gives an elegant feel to the place. Nice hotel bar. Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Pool and rooftop area is very peaceful and relaxing. We travelled with our 16-month-old daughter and this hotel was perfect. Our only slight issue was that we were given a room directly above the lobby bar which had loud music pumping out until 2am - but it was NYE, and we booked very late. Found it very difficult to find any info online about seeing the fireworks - where from etc. Everything just said the marina. The marina was packed with people and it’s quite a walk back to the hotel, so we decided to get back to the hotel around 11:30pm and take our chances. For anyone else wondering if you can see fireworks from the hotel, don’t worry. I’m sure the marina is the optimum place, but we went to the swimming pool sunbathing terrace and were surrounded by amazing fireworks. They are not just in the marina; some were directly in front and behind our hotel. This worked out perfectly for us. Take ear defenders if taking small children / babies. Great experience. Breakfast and room were great too. Would certainly stay here again.
