Boutique Hotel Vivenda Miranda

This place is absolutely stunning. A beautiful boutique hotel, intimate, clean, and has great views. The rooms are spacious and beautiful. We had a lovely patio looking out to the garden with an ocean view. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. We had really slow service for dinner at their restaurant (so slow that by the time we got our servers attention to order our main meal, they said the kitchen was closed). Their bar service was also pretty slow. Having said all of that, I would still go back in a heartbeat. It's in a really quiet part of town with walking access to a beautiful beach.

I have eaten at many hotel restaurants in my day and I would say this hotel dinner is the BEST HOTEL DINNER I have ever had. Service was wonderful and Henry makes the dinner enjoyable with his greeting of "Good Morning". The food is 5 star all the way. The breakfasts were fine. The accomodated my gf who is gluten free with a large plate of sauteed vegetables. The staff at the hotel was very helpful and friendly. The rooms are spacious. The water in the shower has great pressure. The rooms have good views of the ocean. The hotel is worth its price.

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. We liked that it was a bit away from the main part of Lagos. It took us about 30 min to walk to the Old Town. We really enjoyed the coastal walk (Ponta da Piedade Boardwalk) that was accessed a few blocks from the hotel and we could walk into Lagos. We didn't have a car but used private drivers, taxis, and walked everywhere we could. There are several great restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. We really enjoyed Gattopardo Pizzeria. We enjoyed the hotel restaurant as well and had amazing food there with stunning views! Our room had a beautiful view and was very comfortable. The room we were in was very open with the sink and shower in the main part of the room with not much privacy which some people might not like. Other than that, the hotel and room were lovely. It is a beautiful, quaint boutique hotel.

We are posting this review having still received no response from the hotel manager and no meaningful follow-up since our stay, which unfortunately reflects the overall level of service we experienced. We stayed at Vivenda Boutique Hotel in Lagos from 27–29 December, travelling with our 6 month old baby who was staying near by with her grandparents so we could finally get some sleep and rest, and the stay fell far below what anyone should expect from a 4-star boutique hotel. Based on our experience, we would strongly advise others not to waste their money here. From the first night in Room 7, there were clear and unacceptable maintenance issues. A broken gutter outside the room caused extremely loud water noise during heavy rain, making sleep difficult. The bathroom floor was also wet due to a leak from the Velux window, indicating poor upkeep. On the evening of 28 December, from around 8pm, the room developed a strong sewer smell coming from the bathroom. We tried ventilating the room, but the odour continued to worsen to the point where it made us feel unwell. Reception agreed the smell was unacceptable and moved us to Room 5, which we appreciated as the situation had become unbearable. Unfortunately, the second room brought further issues. The mattress was extremely hard, making it impossible for me to sleep, and I woke with significant neck and back pain. Between the sewer smell, room move, and lack of sleep, the night was extremely distressing. We also booked massages during our stay. While the massages themselves were very good, it was disappointing to discover there is no heated pool or hot tub, which would be a valuable amenity, particularly during the winter season. At check-out, the manager was unavailable, and the compensation offered was minimal and later revised, failing to reflect the seriousness of the issues. Since leaving, we have heard nothing further from management, which is unacceptable given the circumstances. A comfortable, clean bedroom is the most basic expectation of a hotel stay. Between the sewer smell, maintenance failures, disrupted sleep, and lack of accountability, this hotel does not deliver a 4-star experience. There are far better options in Lagos — in our view, this is not worth the money, and we would not return or recommend it to others.

My partner and I stayed for 4 nights in September, and were sad to leave. The property is just absolutely beautiful. The views from the rooms, restaurant, and pool area are captivating. I loved sitting out every day, hearing all the birds and the ocean. ||Our room was huge, and well appointed. The spa area with the steam room and sauna is beautiful and private. We got a massage during our stay and it was lovely. The breakfast was good, with a small made to order menu.||I was nervous to book here because recent reviews mentioned rude staff. That was not our experience, the staff were so friendly. The front desk made wonderful recommendations that made our trip better, and the restaurant and bar staff were warm and friendly. ||The only thing I can think to complain about is the pool temperature. It is frigid, only about 21-22 degrees. It would be nice if it was heated on cooler days.

We have stayed in many five-star and above hotels, but this place was truly special. We had never experienced a boutique hotel. The service was excellent, and every moment of our stay was a delight. The view was stunning, and we will definitely return. The food was fantastic, and breakfast was superb. The staff’s attention to detail and warm hospitality were outstanding. In particular Francesco who had his first day working there, was very nice. Thanks to everybody.

Wonderful, tranquil location with awesome view. Very comfortable room, good service, super breakfast and a very good restaurant. Walking distance to a beach and short ride to Lagos town. We definitely want to come back some time.

Nice location with stunning view on top of the cliff. Lpvely food and breakfast, despite of the 40 minutes wait for the eggs benedict. The garden rooms are spacious but dark without windows to ppen at night for some fresh air. The interior was an accidental collection of the old and new style. Did not match the fancy exterior or bar. Expectation were high after entering the main area and then we felt rather disappointed when taken to our room.
