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.

Overall an okay hotel. Big rooms with full kitchen unit (didn't use it). The pool area is clean with lots of space. Breakfast buffet is huge with many different options to choose from. However, we had ants in our room which is a no-go for us. We think/hope this is just our room and nt others. Otherwise we would have given more stars.
