## Neighborhood
Luz is a quaint little holiday getaway along the Algarvian coastline. Shops, bars and restaurants and a beautiful beach are right on your doorstep. Set amidst spectacular coastal scenery you can take your time to explore the stunning cliffs, undiscovered beaches, neighboring quaint villages and the national park. It’s just a 15-minute drive to the regional capital, Lagos, if you want a bit more action.
Lagos is the perfect holiday destination with a lively historical center full of shops, (super)markets, a marina, bars and restaurants. It is known for its cliffs and we highly recommend a boat, kayak or SUP tour to see them from the water. The town has a picturesque historical center, great food and friendly people. As it is located on the coast you can enjoy several watersports activities such as surfing and sailing. There are many activities for all ages and preferences in this area.
## Transit
You can reach Lagos in about one hour by car from Faro Airport and car rental is available in the parking lot of the airport. By train it will take about 2,5 to 3 hours.
Lagos has a train station (for travel towards Faro, Lisbon and Porto) and a bus station (for buses towards the west-side of the south coast) but do note that buses and trains only go a few times per day. You can easily get around without a car and there are plenty of taxis and Ubers available, but if you really want to explore the area surrounding Lagos, a (rental) car will make your life a whole lot easier.
Free public parking nearby. Parking in front of the apartment is not always possible in summer, but there will be plenty of space in the surrounding streets.

The beach, The boardwalk, and many restaurants to choose from all within a few minutes walk.
The room is in a great location "a little dated "and the appliances could be a higher quality, the balcony could use new furniture but a nice place to enjoy a morning coffee and a glass of wine later. Overall very comfortable and enjoyed our stay here...
Luz is amazing. I don’t want people to know. It’s an amazing location. The Mariners Hotel was great, the bath towels were so luxurious and the location cannot be beat.
We had a wonderful time in Luz! The apartment is just as described in the pictures. The location is just great. The only “bad” thing was that the coffee machine didn’t work🙈 but down the road is “licks gelato” and they had great coffee, too. So all in all, we had a great time!

Nice place to stay for a couple - 1 min walking from the beach
Pros:
Nice place to stay basically at the beach.
The rooms are ideal for 2 people and the kitchen was fully equipment.
Very central and clean apartment.
Cons:
Internet connection was very poor/non-existing for almost 100% of the time in the entire apartment. Our problem was solved only 1 week after our arrival with the new router and with this we had to use our mobile data during the whole week.
The walls are not so good (sound proofing) as we could hear our side and upstairs neighbors.
The curtains don't block completely the sun.
We though we have some cons, it was certainly a nice stay and we recommend it for future visitors.

Tolle Lage
Schöne kleine Wohnung mit fantastischer Aussicht an toller Lage. Tapasbar ist teilweise sehr laut - aber das Essen dort ist dafür toll.
Einzig die Strassenlampe, welche ab dem Abend den Balkon und das Schlafzimmer beleuchtet, ist etwas störend.
Heerlijk eten bij zazu aan de boulevard, prima appartement

Recommended Place
- Apartment is very close to the beach. Just in 2 minutes walking distance.
- Apartment was clean and it had all necessary equipments.
- It is big enough to stay there up to 4 people.
- It has big balcony
Disliked · - There is a street lamp almost in the balcony. It really disturbs during evening and night times. But there is nothing to do from the host and/or agent side.

Mariners 5
I stayed in Mariners 5 apartment with my boyfriend and it was one of the best rentals we've ever stayed in. The apartment was perfect for the two of us, well furnished, new and modern. The best features of the apartment are definitely the balcony where we loved to have our meals and the rooftop terrace with an amazing view. The location of the apartment couldn't be better, it's very close to the beach and the center of Luz. Check in and check out were super easy and we didn't have any problems whatsoever during our stay. I highly recommend both the apartment and visiting Luz.
