10/10 Exceptional

The property was very warm and comforting and villa we stayed in was spectacular. It was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast buffet was great, a lot of variety all of which tasted great, a very nice start to our days in Lagos. Definitely would stay again, in fact our experience at Ancora Park is a big reason why we are thinking of coming back to Lagos!
Rodney, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff were very friendly and helpful, room was comfortable and pool area very nice. Breakfast buffet was delicious. I would only suggest that at the breakfast, the staff might clear the used dishes from the table, a minor issue but would be appreciated. Otherwise everything was perfect, thank you for a wonderful stay 💖

BERNICE, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a wonderful stay at Âncora. The room was very spacious and clean. The pool is huge and was always a peaceful place to relax. The walk into Old Town is a little far, so we used uber/bolt to get around. Highly recommend this property for a relaxing vacation. It’s within walking distance of spectacular beaches!

Awesome pool! Close to everything. Great place to stay while in Lagos.

The hotel was really nice. A little far from the Old town (maybe 20 min walking), but closer to other beautiful beaches. The staff was so nice.

We loved how spacious the one bedroom villa is and having a kitchenette was very useful.

6/10 Good

Ups and lows

The beds are very hard and linnen is dramatic. Thin linnen with a loose duvet on top. Pool and apartment are superb. The deposit of 20 euro per beach towel is a bit excessive.

I stayed here for 4 days as a solo traveller. It was all you could ask for. Attentive staff, clean, lovely pool area and a 20 minute walk into central Lagos. I can't fault it.

Brandon, 15-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Just fabulous. We stayed four nights in one of the villas, which apparently had been recently remodeled. Everything was shiny and new and sparkling clean. There was a small, well-outfitted kitchenette, though we didn't use it to cook, just for coffee/tea and dishes. We loved the back patio area and our unit even had a small deck on the roof! Each villa has its own parking spot too, which is great. The service at the restaurant and pool bar was top notch, all the staff were so friendly and kind. We paid for breakfast two days, dinner one night, and ordered food at the pool bar for dinner another night, and everything was delicious. The pool is enormous and there are plenty of loungers, although it would be nice if the umbrellas could be moved or even just tilted as the sun moves. I wish we could have spent more than one afternoon lounging out there, but our itinerary was packed. The deposit for the pool towels is a bit steep, but you get your money back when they're returned. I would come back to Lagos simply to stay at Ancora Park again, we enjoyed it that much!

Kieran, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Just okay

Had higher expectations considering the ratings on line. But here’s where they do not warrant a 5 rating. We had a one bedroom suite with kitchen setup. Sofa wax stained, no tv in bedroom, you had to supply your own toilet paper and coffee. Okay maybe the coffee but toilet paper? Been to many places over the years and this was a first where we had to buy our toilet paper. Bed was very poor quality, need their mattresses updated. Beautiful pool and pool area but the loungers are in terrible condition. We tried the buffet dinner on our last night and although great variety, food quality is subpar.
