Just returned from a holiday to the lobos bahia, after reading reviews on here wasnt sure at all but had to find out for ourselves, as i say each to their own. Upon arriving pool looked lovely, big complex nice enough looking, we had a 2 bed apartment in block C, room basic but what you needed, bath however had been painted over the original porcelain or whatever its made of and bits started coming off over the week as we all bathed. Didnt go in pool as lovely but absolutely freezing, we went to beach instead and i went for a swim in the seawater. Food at breakfast anddinner most disappointing of all, always the same things and quite alot of the time the meat especially was not cooked properly, it was pinky red and no one ws eating it, we saw the chef throw it out on 3 occasions and cut a new piece which was slightly better but people were too put off, breakfast exactly the same every day, scrambled eggs half cooked, yuk, as we got to know people over the week everyone was complaining about the food, lunch was served around the pool bar and i will say that this was the nicest meal each day, different foods and cooked lovely, its certainly not all inclusive as it says its more full board with drinks as AI is when you get snacks between certain times between main meals and there was none of that there only ice cream or drinks, resort lovely however, quiet when we were there 12th-19th december but what a big let down the food is, we wont go back here and i advise anyone thinking of going not to, you can try self catering but the food is not cheap to eat out, we have been to many places/hotels but this was by far the worst.

We stayed here for two weeks and enjoyed every minute the rooms were clean and had everything you needed,even though we went all inclusive you still had cooking facilities in the apartment a welcomed change. The food was excellent never ate the same thing twice. beer round the pool was self sevice as were the icecreams no waiting around.plenty to do for the kids they left me in peace as they were well entertained.

I have just returned from this hotel having booked with Thomas Cook. I nearly asked to change accomodation based on reviews I read from this site but I'm so pleased I didn't. I travelled with my husband and two small children (2 and 3 months). Very concisely:

Appartment (2 bed): basic but very clean and functional. Staff serviced it daily and were excellent and considerate to our privacy.

Pool: Lovely. Very cold and salty but so were other pools at surrounding hotels.

Staff: very helpful - a broken door handle fixed within minutes of reporting.

Bar and food: Ate there once as self catering but those on all inclusive said food was good - a bit repetitive but fresh and tasty. Entertainment was not great but friendly staff and real effort made, We preferred to go out anyway.

General up-keep: slightly shabby but the complex is very pretty and well landscaped.

All in all we loved it and will go again!

Stayed at the Lobos with my Partner in Nov 09....just booked it as a last minute deal, we went all inc but wish i had not as the food was very basic, if you like loads of chips book it.....we stayed in block i, which was right at the back of the hotel and looked onto a road...the room was clean and the cleaner came every 2 days...the swimming pools are the biggest ive ever seen in a hotel....only trouble they are salt water....the staff looked like they didnt want to be there and made no small talk with you...the only member of staff who made an effort was the night entertainment guy.....would i go there again......No
