We just returned from spending 8 nights at Peter’s apartment and must say it was perfect in all ways ! The location was so great , we felt we had the best of both worlds with being in the Marina side with all the restaurants and amenities and yet just a short walk away over the bridge was Old Town Lagos . The deck overlooking the marina was also a highlight we enjoyed everyday for morning coffees to a glass of wine in the evening . It really made this apartment a hit ! Another great perk that is included with this unit is the pool access to The Marina Club next door , we used this everyday and really enjoyed it .The apartment itself is a great size and it has everything you need and more . The local grocery store is a 10 minute walk away and has a great selection as well .We cannot stress enough how much we enjoyed Peter’s unit and we will def stay here again on our next trip to Lagos .

Perfect location in the marina, bus station and train station. Great restaurants near by and take out as particularly enjoyable on our beautiful spacious deck. Gina and her husband were very helpful getting us settled and providing recommendations for places to visit and nearby attractions.

Great location

The apartment is located at the marina in Lagos with a good selection of bars and restaurants nearby and a fabulous view of the marina from the spacious first floor balcony. At the time of our booking ( February) the balcony, because of its orientation (North- East), only gets the sun when it’s at its weakest for about an hour and a half at the end of the day which was disappointing. (This may improve later in the year as the sun’s position gets higher and sets further west?) The apartment is a good size but could do with some upgrading (including some of the furnishings) which we understood from the owner’s agent would start shortly with a new bathroom. We set up the TV with HDMI cables to get Sky Sports etc from our own Now box which worked well although there was bass vibration (possibly from how the TV had been fitted to the wall bracket). An issue with the (new) boiler was dealt with very promptly and the apartment was cleaned and the sheets/towels changed after the first week. Overall a good rental property.

Perfect Location!

Carlos, the property manager met us at the door to the apartment building. This particular Is a short two floor up steps and there IS a lift just one flight of stairs up. It also goes to the garage but doesn’t go all the way to the entrance. The apt was VERY clean and first impression was WHAT A VIEW!! After a brief tour of the property and instructions from Carlos on all the amenities, he gave us his personal number and left us alone to move in for a month. We asked him about a clothes dryer and he pointed out a drying rack for hanging our clothes right out of the washer. As most probably know, it’s very unusual to own a clothes dryer anywhere in Europe and even more unusual to find one in a VRBO rental. The view from the terrace was breathtaking and although it was too chilly to be outside, we thoroughly enjoyed waking up to it every morning. Since we were there for a month, we went on Spanish Amazon.es and preordered a water filter tank and a grocery cart. We left both of those there so hopefully, you can enjoy their use during your stay. The apartment was a bit dated…tired even, but we spent so little time inside, it wasn’t an issue. There is a smallish flat screen TV in one corner of the living room and I highly recommend getting something like a ROKU fire stick so that you can stream all your favorite shows if you’re staying long. Unfortunately, it’s the ONLY TV. No TV in either bedroom If you sleep in the master, be prepared to be awakened by very bright sunlight in the morning as there are no black out curtains to prevent early morning sun from streaming in. After the first night, we pushed the two twin beds together in the guest because the glass doors facing the marina have metal shades on the outside and they dramatically decrease the sunlight in the morning. In the kitchen you’ll find a four burner glass cooktop, a vented hood (you have to pull the hood toward you to get the fan and light to work), a refrigerator/freezer (the freezer did not have ice trays and it isn’t frost free). There’s a toaster, coffee maker and just about anything you need for cooking meals. And if you’re lucky, there’s the Zero Water Filter Tank that holds about 23 cups/5.4 liters. We never could figure out how to use the dishwasher so we washed everything by hand. The single bathroom was very comfortable and the shower enjoyable. There is a fireplace in the living room but we never used it.

Das Apartment ist sehr geräumig, sauber und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Der große Balkon mit Blick auf die Marina ist außergewöhnlich schön - auch perfekt für Sunset-Fotos.Auch die Lage ist ideal - ein paar Gehminuten abseits vom Trubel des Örtchens, aber nicht zu weit entfernt.Fußläufig ist in wenigen Minuten ein Supermarkt erreichbar und direkt um‘s Eck sind einige kleine Bars & Cafés für einen schnellen Kaffee oder etwas Abendunterhaltung.Der Strand ist auch fußläufig in 10 Minuten erreichbar, angenehm breit, sehr lang und sauber. Ein Sonnenschirm mit 2 Liegen 10 pro Tag (ab 16:00 Uhr weniger) oder man kann sich natürlich auch im „Nicht-Schirm-Bereich“ selbst platzieren. Strandtücher sind im Apartment inbegriffen.Der Pool der benachbarten Hotelanlage kann kostenlos mitgenutzt werden, aber: es sind dort fast ausschließlich Briten, die ab mittags mit ihrem Plastikbecher mit Bier in der Hand auf der Liege schlafen.Was toll war: es wurden einmal die Handtücher aus Bad und Küche gewechselt und das Apartment gereinigt während unseres 10-tägigen Aufenthalts.Die Kommunikation mit dem Eigentümer war hervorragend: immer rasch, sehr freundlich und entgegenkommend. Ganz herzlichen DANK!!!Einziger Wermutstropfen: „Hausmeister“ Carlos ist alles andere als freundlich oder kundenorientiert. Pampige Konversation per WhatsApp und bei Problemen nicht bestrebt, Lösungen zu finden.Tipps: Bootstour(en) machen, Felsküste oben entlanglaufen.Fazit: gerne wieder bei neuem Hausmeister!

Heerlijk verbleven in de meivakantie met onze 2 kinderen van 12 en 14. Prima uitgerust appartement met geweldig balkon met uitzicht op de marina. Strand en centrum op loopafstand en super dat we gebruik konden maken van zwembad in aangrenzend blok (water was nog wel koud maar de pubers lieten zich daar niet door tegenhouden). Bij aankomt moesten we even wachten op de host ondanks communicatie vooraf over de tijden maar na telefoontje kwam die alsnog snel voor ontvangst. Enige nadeel was de landelijke stroomuitval (maar daar kon host natuurlijk niets aan doen, er waren gelukkig kaarsjes aanwezig).

Scenic Location Perfect for a Walking Vacation

Property owner and manager were great, with very responsive and welcoming communications. The unit was clean and spacious. The large, private balcony (with table & chairs, and two lounges) was wonderful - with a beautiful view of the marina. In addition to the view, we found the location to be perfect for a walking vacation. The unit was just a three minute walk from the train station. There were lots of restaurants around (including Quay right next door which we enjoyed). The grocery store was nearby and easy to get to. And we could explore the rocky coast by foot and by water (took a shore line cruise with Blue Fleet). We walked to Ponta da Piedade, mostly on a boardwalk that hugged the coast and offered spectacular views. Along that walk, we enjoyed a delicious meal at Camilo Restaurant. We highly recommend this property and would definitely stay again if back in the area.

Great Place to stay

We ran late due to train issues and Gina was very accommodating, making our arrival stress free. Clean apartment and more than enough room for 2 adults and 2 older teens. The kitchen was great when we decided to have lunch when we needed a break from restaurants. 7 minute walk to downtown historical Lagos, and the location was great as it was just outside of that very busy area. Loved to sit on the balcony and watch the boats come in. Very quiet at night and walking distance of local grocery shop, train station, restaurants and beaches. Had easy access to the next door pool. We would recommend this place!

Great spot

The condo is a great location. Right on the marina, lots of cafes and restaurants. It's less than a 10 minute walk to Pingo Doce for groceries. The condo is very clean and the kitchen has everything you need to cook if you want to. A big balcony with 2 chaises lounges and a 4 seat dining table overlook the marina. The check in was great! Gina met us there and gave us the keys, pool passes and explained where to park in the underground garage. We rented a car from Marina car rental, which you can walk over the foot bridge to go pick up. I would stay here again and would recommend this condo to family and friends.

I came to Portugal in 1983 for one year...to grow Iceberg lettuce for Marks and Spencer...... and i am still here!!

I started a large farming enterprise which is now owned by Vitacress Salads and then started my own farming business called Camposol.

We farm 1,500 acres of sand land on the Atlantic coast near the town of Vila Nova de Milfontes which is 1 hours drive North of Lagos.

We grow vegetables for export throughout Europe in the Winter months and turf grass for amenity and sports use. We have supplied nearly all the main football clubs including Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Portugal is a great place to live and Lagos a super place for a holiday as it caters for tourists while still keeping the characteristics of a Portuguese town.

Have a great Holiday!
