This apartment was perfect for me and my traveling mate. The space was clean and comfortable. We loved the large patio and the beach right down the hill. We also loved that it was just up the hill from Old Town so it was an easy walk down, but super quiet. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great View and Location

The location is convenient to Lagos, sightseeing and shopping. The view from the balcony gives a good view of the water. The pics of the furniture both inside and out are outdated as they did not match. The property manager was responsive when contacted for a few items and we were able to get in early (Thanks Joao). To make this a full 5-star, a few things could be added for comfort.... place to put toiletries in front bath when showering, hook to hang towels in back bathroom, a normal mattress, mirror in the front bathroom, written instructions for TV, microwave and leaving and perhaps a listing of good restaurants, best tours, sightseeing, etc. That has been normal in other places I have stayed. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to anyone heading to Lagos.

Overall we enjoyed our stay very much at this property. The location and beach were perfect for a stay in Lagos. Everything was as pictured in the listing. The bed was very comfortable & resort quiet at night. The beach is incredible here just a long walk down. At beach you can rent 2 chairs & 1 umbrella. I think it was 25E for the day? Happily, the unit had 2 small beach chairs and and umbrella to use. Other than chairs and toilet paper and 2 small bars of soap they really don't provide anything else. A few simple adds would really help a distance traveler such as salt&pepper shaker, maybe leave 2 coffee pods so the visitors can get a chance to get to the grocery store (that coffee pot is another story, good luck with that), ice cube trays, roll of paper towels and/or box of tissues, small bottle of dish soap, pool towels. Be aware that you'll need to bring those things or buy them. Although the owner did mention you "rent" pool towels. Also checking in at night was difficult. It was a little tricky finding the room as it was on backside of the building. We arrived at night and the outside door wasn't lit with a lamp. So had to use our flashlights on phone to find key and unlock door. Then the lights inside hallway stairwell didn't work so airway hall was always dark at night. The remote for garage door under the building never worked so we had to park outside in lot which was fine luckily we were always able to find a space. Minor issues. Overall pleased with our stay.

Die Lage und der Blick war super, Es war leider nur eine Liege auf dem Balkon, und diese war schon sehr durchgelegen. Schade war auch , dass kein Spülmittel oder Geschirrspültab oder Lappen, für den ersten Tag zumindest, vorhanden war Das Haustürschloß müsste gerichtet werden, teilweise lässt es sich schwer aufsperren. Versuchten Kontakt mit Sarah aufzunehmen. Wollten fragen wegen einen zweiten Schlüssel, da wir zu dritt unanhängiger wären. Leider keinen erreicht und keine Antwort bekommen , das fanden wir sehr schade . Licht im Gang draußen ziemlich duster . Ansonsten war der Aufenthalt sehr schön, Schnell am Strand und auch zu Fuß ist Lagos gut zu erreichen.

Schöne Ferienwohnung in Top Lage

Sehr schöne Wohnung direkt über der wunderschönen Praia Dona Ana in einer Ferienwohnung-Anlage. Sehr schöner Blick von der Terrasse auf den Atlantik mit Morgensonne. Nur einige Minuten Fußweg zur Altstadt von Lagos. Also eine Top Lage! An der Poolanlage - die haben wir nicht genutzt- auf dem Weg zum Strand, gibt es eine Bar mit Getränken, Cocktails und Snacks. Außerdem gibt es einen kleinen Supermarkt auf dem Gelände. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, die Anlage ist jedoch sehr hellhörig. Jetzt in der Vorsaison war das aber kein Problem. Vermisst haben wir fast gar nichts. Einige Müllbeutel oder auch einige Spülmaschinentabs wären schön gewesen, wie wir es aus anderen Wohnungen kennen. Fast alles was an Verbrauchsutensilien gebraucht wird, muss man kaufen oder mitbringen, sollte man ggfs wissen. Einziges Manko… entgegen der Fotos, gab es nur eine Liege und den Sonnenschirm haben wir vermisst. Es waren auch nicht alle Stühle lt. den Fotos vorhanden, da wir aber nur draußen gegessen haben, war das gar kein Problem. Der Kontakt mit der Agentur war nur online, sehr nett und problemlos! Wir würden die Ferienwohnung sofort wieder wählen, sollten wir wieder nach Lagos reisen.

An excellent stay!

We loved the location of the apartment. It has access to a large clean pool which is a plus for a family with kids like us. It is located right on one of the most famous beaches in Algarve area. You can walk to the town(about 10 min walk) which was always very pleasant. It had 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. Air conditioner was a plus. I loved the layout of the apartment as well as the large balcony where we had most of our breakfast and some dinners. Parking was super easy and we never had a problem finding a spot. Here are some of the negatives to be aware of; Please do go shopping on the way to the apartment because there is nothing, not even salt or enough dish washing liquid or hand soap to wash your hands. I thought it was very strange that all of the soap dispensers only had a few pumps of soap left. Not the most well stocked kitchen. We've stayed at many places through out Europe and this is the only place that didn't even have basic necessities like salt and dish washing soap. Also, no coffee maker which we thought was very strange. Balcony, while big and spacious with amazing view of water, it definitely needed some tlc as I saw mold and paint chipping. Also, the guy who greeted me at the door wasn't the friendliest but I assume he is the manager of the apartment complex. Also, some beach towels would have been really nice. Despite that, we loved the stay and we'd definitely come back for more stays. You just can't beat the location, the view and the convenience!

Magnifique

Nous avons passé cinq jours ,fin mai 2019. Très confortable et très bien situé, sur la falaise surplombant la magnifique plage Dona Ana, l'appartement offre une vue partielle mais très intéressante sur la baie de Lagos. À environ 10 minutes de marche de la marina ou l'on peux louer des kayaks et tours de bateau et à 15 minutes de marche seulement du centre ville pour supermarché, boutiques et restaurants. Nous avons adoré notre séjour. À ne pas manquer le tour en petite chaloupe pour voir les falaises et plages de la mer. Comme c'est petit, on n'était que 2 dans la chaloupe avec le guide parlant français, et on pouvait entrer dans les grottes non accessibles aux plus grosses embarcations. 55 minutes de pur plaisir pour les yeux. On reviendrait certainement Denise, Québec, Canada
