I stayed at MarAzul after a week of youth hostels and surf camps. So, to me, it seemed like a luxury hotel! My room and private bathroom were clean and comfortable. The breakfast was typical for Portugal (a bit of bread, some coffee) and the location was perfect for enjoying the city and getting around easily. My room was right... More

We stayed 3 nights as our base to tour the Algarve. Clean, basic rooms; friendly staff; basic breakfast; excellent location in centre of Lagos. Hotel was on second floor; since no elevator, needed to carry luggage up, but owner helped. We had rental car and had some difficulty with the very narrow streets and finding the hotel, which is on... More

Simple, clean rooms with view of the ocean and breakfast included. Walk to beach and shopping/restaurants right out the door. Location and value couldn't be better. Some noise from the street but it didn't bother us. Only drawback is - if you are arriving by car it is hard to find and there are only hard to navigate parking decks... More

MarAzul's location is prime. The front door opens onto on a very nice pedestrian street with many shops, restaurants, cafes, and bars. It is just a few minutes walk from the harbor and ocean, and the rooms located at the back of the pensao have wonderful views of the sea. We stayed two nights in a double room with an... More

This little place, bang in the middle of Lagos, could not have a better location. It's modest in every way: small rooms, simply furnished, courteous (but not gushing) service, simple but tasty breakfast and cheap as chips. We loved it - we got really lucky with out room and had a little balcony overlooking the street, where they let us... More

Really enjoyed our stay in Mar Azul. It is conveniently located just in the old town centre and also close to the beaches. Our room was small, but cosy, clean and nicely decorated. Owner Rui is most helpful and friendly. Breakfast was always fresh and tasty, but with a limited choice of food. The only other minor drawback was the... More

We arrived in Lagos and checked out about 5 guesthouses and some of the bigger hotels and chose the MarAzul for its central location and clean rooms. We had a room with a double (2 twins pushed together) and a bathroom in the room. What we didn't plan on was how much we enjoyed the staff - they were wonderful... More

We loved staying at the central Pensao MarAzul. It was so close to everything, and the owner was very helpful and friendly with whatever needs we had. We had a double room with a shared bathroom. We ended up having a shower in our room too. The breakfast is fantastic, making it even better value for money. There is also... More
