Hotel Faro, a Lopesan Collection Hotel - Adults Only

The location of the hotel is perfect, with plenty of bars, restaurants and shopping within close proximity. The hotel itself is spectacular, we stayed in a junior suite which was huge and equipped with everything we needed; toiletries, robe and slippers, hairdryer, complimentary beach bag, hat etc. On arrival we were greeted with a warm welcome and a drink of our choice. Our room wasn’t ready but we were offered a room to change in if required. There was a wide choice of food at the breakfast buffet, however it was the same each day, but it was all fresh and tasted good. The main pool is heated which is a massive plus for me! The loungers were very comfortable and there were always some available, no matter what time you arrived. The rooftop area was never busy, however the pools weren’t heated and there was a €30 fee for each bed, which is easily spendable if you have a few drinks or some food. We had lunch up there and the food was delicious. The only downsides for me was that the bed in the room was slightly too hard , but that is personal preference. As mentioned in other reviews the hotel would benefit from a poolside bar, or for the staff to be more visible for you to order. Overall I would rate this hotel a 9 out of 10 and would happily return!

Amazing stay overall! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout my stay, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was delicious, and the room was stunning—clean, comfortable, and beautifully presented.

The only downside was the noise. I could hear running water from the room next door, which was a little disruptive at times. Aside from that, everything was excellent, and I would happily stay here again.

La ubicación, las habitaciones amplias, modernas. Los detalles como la bolsa, el solar, las chanclas, etc y sobre todo la amabilidad del personal que atiende la piscina, tanto los socorristas como los que están pendientes de las sombrillas y toallas.

Tiempo de espera un poco largo cuando quieras hablar con Recepción, tanto a nivel presencial como por teléfono.

Emplacement magnifique Chambre avec vue sur la mer Chambre bien équipée Personnel aimable et professionnel Je recommande vivement pour un couple Séjour juste impressionnant

We stayed at the big family Lopesan next door nearly 20 years ago, so thought we’d come back and try the adults only as empty nesters. The hotel is only 25 minutes in a taxi from the airport and as you embark it’s difficult to find the exterior of the hotel attractive. However, our cases were whisked away and we were greeted at reception and offered a drink of our choice. The lobby has an ultra modern design, with dark tones that surprisingly create a calming atmosphere. Our room was 1409 and had a double aspect balcony and had sun in the late afternoon. The room was again dark and had ample storage space for a week. Yes, the sink is in the middle of the room and if hubby was shaving and I wanted something in the wardrobe we both had to squeeze in. The bed was large and had clean, crisp sheets and two big fluffy pillows each. Personal choice but I did not find the bed comfortable as a little too firm for me. Free water for tea and coffee but the full fridge was chargeable. Two free cocktail bottles and chocolates on arrival. Turn down service around 5.30 with a chocolate bar. We were B&B and really enjoyed the breakfast (bar one thing, explain later). Lovely fresh orange juice and coffee poured on being seated. Fabulous fresh fruit, credit to the fruit guy! There is a menu to order certain things, eg porridge, omelettes, eggs Benedict, Croque Madame etc, which we can highly recommend. The pool area is lovely, the most comfortable sunbeds with a warm pool. It is windy but not all the time, it comes and goes but one really big gust covered us in a bit of sand from the beach! There is a towel hut, lifeguard and an umbrella man who is extremely helpful and a credit to the hotel. No pool bar as such, waiter service only and at times it was hard to get their attention. No music playing and no pool activities. There is a gym and Pilates classes but did not see much happening. If you go out of the back door you are on the promenade along the back of the beach. To your left are beach bars and restaurants and of course the beach. Lovely walk all the way to the sand dunes and back. To your right is the Lopesan boulevard with bars, designer shops and many restaurants. Our favourite restaurant was El Salvador and we ate there twice. Lots of supermarkets scattered about. This was a flop and drop holiday but we did get the bus into Puerto de Mogan about 5ish one day, where we had a walk about, a drink and then a fabulous dinner at a restaurant called I Love Mogan on the harbour. Mogan is well worth a visit, very different vibe. All in all a great week in a hotel that is so very nearly 5*. Most staff cannot do enough for you and are a credit to the management. Couple of moans coming up - I don’t drink coffee so at breakfast while hubby got poured his first coffee of the day I had to go up to the machine to make myself a cup of tea. Most 5* hotels would serve me this at the table. Secondly, the drinks pool service needs refining; I would have been happy to go to the bar myself, rather than trying for ages to catch someone’s eye but there isn’t one. Alternatively, as other hotels do, let us be able to order our drinks online which will surely be easier for the wait staff.
