Great location for accessing the town - 15minute walk to the marina and the old town - hill on the way back. We enjoyed the cafe culture in the town and marina. Fantastic walks along the cliff top board walks with amazing views. Ideal location for exploring the Western Algarve with trips to Sagres, Monchique, Portimao and Caroveiro. Great support from Lauren (Managing Agent) who was very helpful and friendly.

The condo was ideally located close to supermarkets and only a 20 minute walk to old town Lagos. Fully equipped for cooking meals. Lauren met us when we arrived and explained everything to us about the condo. However beds were very uncomfortable. Mattresses could be updated.

Thank you for your feedback. We're really glad to hear you enjoyed the apartment location and found it convenient for supermarkets and the walk to the old town. It’s also great to know that Lauren was able to welcome you and help you get settled in. We’re sorry to hear that you found the beds uncomfortable. Mattress comfort can be quite subjective and, while some of our guests have told us they find them comfortable, we understand that preferences can vary. That said, we truly appreciate your feedback and will be looking into options to improve this, including the possibility of providing mattress toppers for guests who may prefer more comfort and a softer feel. Thank you again for booking our apartment and for taking the time to share your comments.

2nd time here

We stayed here 4 years ago and came back because of the location and exceptional condo. We loved the set up, perfect for two couples, everything you need and huge L shaped balcony is like a sun trap. We enjoyed getting our steps in walking to old town and having Aldi right beside was a bonus. You won't be disappointed staying here.

Bearing in mind this was extremely last minute( booked Tuesday for occupying from Thursday!)- the communication was excellent, directions/access instructions excellent. Beds comfortable, great to park car up and walk into town- although we only stayed 3 nights it would’ve been great to stay longer and sample more of Lagos delights. Property is really well equipped for a longer stay- great kitchen,fabulous lounge and dining area and large balcony. Would definitely recommend

Lovely place to stay and relax while on vacation.

Very clean and modern condo. Everything one would need, was available. Since we didn't rent a car, we used Uber to get to the Old Town area. (4-6 Euros).Very short drive. The walk is 20-25 minutes with hills. Something to keep in mind, should one have mobility issues. Very close to groceries and the bus line.

Great apartment in quiet location

This really spacious and clean apartment was perfect for our needs as a family with young children. We found the apartment was in a great location for it to be quiet enough in the evenings but within comfortable walking distance to the marina, beach and old town. We also used Uber to get back to the apartment on the days we had taken on too much of a walk (for around 5 euros). Having Aldi and Lidl really close by meant it was easy to pick up essentials. The huge, sunny balcony overlooking the pool is such a lovely bonus. We’ll definitely return.

Well…

Apartment was as advertised. There was no warm welcome. We are traveling from abroad but instructed not to take a towel to the pool. There was one roll TP for two women for 4 days. The beds were not comfy. The next place we stayed had wine for us and we were met in person by a nice man who explained everything. It made a difference in how we felt as renters.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the apartment did not fully meet your expectations. Regarding the check-in process, our booking form provides guests with two options, a meet and greet or key safe access. If the meet and greet option had been selected, our management firm would have been delighted to welcome you personally upon arrival. With respect to poolside towels, we kindly ask guests not to take bath towels to the pool area, as exposure to suncream and chlorine could cause damage. To ensure convenience, we offer a towel hire service at a minimal cost for guest who require suitable poolside towels. For your stay, we provide toilet rolls and soap in each bathroom upon arrival. As our apartment is self catering, we do not replenish these items during your stay. However, the supermarket conveniently located next door stocks all essentials should you need to restock. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.

Beautiful flat very close to Lagos centre

The flat is beautiful, immaculate, very comfortable and very good value for money. Sadly, we were't able to use the pool or the large terrace, as the weather was rather mediocre during our stay. Although there are a number of beautiful beaches which would appeal to families, we were a little disappointed by the region which we felt had lost a lot of its charm, due to mass tourism.

Wonderful Apartment in Beautiful Lagos

Stayed at this apartment, 4 people for one week and what an amazing time we had! The apartment is spacious, clean and very tastefully decorated with everything you need. We enjoyed breakfast on the very large sunny balcony and evening drinks before wandering down to Lagos town. The town of Lagos is beautiful we always walked there and back be it for a day on the lovely Maia Praia beach or out for anevening meal. There are so many restaurants to choose from and we were lucky to find some small family run places, you will need to wander around the lovely cobbled streets in the old town to find them, well worth it though! The apartment owner Andrew was most helpful, and always on hand to answer any queries. We will definitely return but stay longer next time! Thank you Andrew for all your help and advice.

Lovely and well-appointed apartment with good local access and facilities

This is a spacious apartment, with excellent facilities and Andrew was happy to help with any issues we encountered. I'd certainly recommend the apartment to anyone visiting Lagos as long as you are happy to be in the more modern side of the town. One or two things should be clarified - the Wi-Fi in the apartment is through a dongle and is not free, but is easily topped up locally and is of good quality. We spent about £10 on it and it lasted for the fortnight. The freesat was not working when we were there, but Andrew was happy to have it sorted quickly, however as very few channels from England are now available, it seemed unnecessary to do so. Also the automated garage door stopped working and we were told by a resident that this happens frequently so the secure parking was not secure and we chose to park on the street which was perfectly safe and did not affect the holiday. I only mention this as feedback as it was not a big problem. The positives, of which there are many, include lovely comfortable beds, superb showers and plenty of crockery, cutlery etc in the kitchen. The outdoor space is roomy and the pool area very good with sunbeds locked away for personal use. We found that the pool got busy with people snaffling good spots quite early in the day but I don't know if this is typical at all times, and anyway preferred to drive to Meia Praia which is a wonderful beach - you need to have one of the chocolate-filled doughnuts from the beach vendors if you haven't been to the beach before! Loads of good restaurants in town, and locally try Branson's Steak House which is really good and decent value. I love Lagos and enjoyed this apartment and hope you do too. The Waudby's are good hosts and have provided a good standard apartment which has easy access to several local supermarkets making it easy to live here. Thank you and I hope you enjoy Lagos as much as I and my family always do!

Host profile image
We are a family of four with two young children who live in Essex, England. We are easy going and will be only to happy to answer any questions you may have when enquiring on our apartment.

Why they chose this property

We first visited the Algarve in 2006 when we decided to have a family holiday in Portugal. We loved the Algarve so much that we decided to buy an apartment in the historic town of Lagos, in our opinion the most beautiful coastal resort on the Algarve. We have been holidaying in Portugal ever since.

What makes this property unique

The complex was completed in mid 2011 by a well known local developer. The apartment complex is constructed to a very high standard and is well maintained throughout the year. The apartment is furnished to an exceptionally high standard providing all the facilities you will require for an enjoyable stay.
