This was our first visit to Portugal, and I must say definitely not our last. The hotel Benavista da Luz was the best hotel we have ever stopped in; and we have travelled all over the world. The staff were extremely helpful, (especially Anna at reception), and the waiters were most pleasant and entertaining. The facilities at the hotel were... More

We've just returned from a week's holiday at this hotel, after an absence of ten years and found it as friendly and welcoming as ever - almost like we had never been away! The obvious difference is the absence of the original co-owner Derrick who was a larger than life character and we were very sad to hear he died... More

If you are planning a short break in Praia da Luz, you could do worse than stay at the Belavista. It's a family run hotel and the staff try their very best to please. Off season is quiet but the weather can still be brilliant and it's a great place to stay if you want peace. In the summer it's... More

The Belavista is exceptional in the warmth and genuine friendliness of all the staff. Its location is great within walking distance of an attractive beach, and easy drive from Lagos and other parts of the Algarve. The restaurant is very good and provides very good food. We chose to visit new locations and countries each year, but Belavista has attracted... More

Just returned from a 4 night break at the Belavista with three friends on a golfing break. I have stayed at the Belavista about 10 times and it never fails to delight. Although the hotel is 20 years old, it is in very good condition and is kept immaculately. I must commend the reception staff who on our golfing breaks... More

We loved the Hotel Belavista da Luz. The staff were exceptional - nothing was too much trouble. It is a small friendly hotel and great value for money. It is a good walk from the beach and other amenities but it has its own pool and a range of activities are available. We only had breakfast at the Hotel as... More

We chose this hotel because others praised it. However, the warmth and genuine friendliness of the staff made every aspect of our stay a pleasure. It is also well planned, and bright. They keep it immaculate all over. The breakfasts were excellent. We would recommend it to everyone

Agreeing with all the positive comments already posted I would like to praise the owner, Kate and her staff. I was there 30 March - 6 April and had the misfortune to be robbed in the street. Thanks to Kate's generosity I was able to make the many calls back to the UK, from the hotel phone. Anna, one of... More

On a couple of occasions every year since the opening of the Belavista Hotel, I enjoy a holiday at this wonderful Hotel that can best be described as having a “home from home” environment.

The hotel is located in a quiet street, yet not far from the sea. My room was a generous size, very nice with a large balcony equiped with table and chairs and a sunlounger. I had a view over the two pools to the sea. The room was spotless and the bed comfortable. There is a very large breakfast choice... More
