WINTER LONGER STAYS (28 nights or more)

ELECTRICITY IS INCLUDED in the long-term winter rental rate, however, as always, we ask for guests to be responsible and to turn off the air conditioning when they leave the property. Once heating is turned on, the apartment warms up very quickly and so it isn't essential for it to be left on to keep the place warm.

A cleaning service is offered every second week during which bed linen/covers and towels will be refreshed.

ALGARVIAN WINTERS

As lovely as the weather can be here, we feel that it is important to note that it can get quite chilly during the winter months. Our building, unlike most, is well insulated and built for the colder winter weather. Our home is double glazed, equipped with air conditioning with a heating mode and blankets. These are usually enough to keep the property warm, however we advise that you bring your cozy clothing and perhaps some thick socks/slippers.

Fantastic break

We had a fantastic week at this apartment. It was very clean, and we communicated well with the host, who was very patient with me. I should imagine mosquitoes would be a problem later in the year, as the large stagnant test pool for the boat shop a few hundred yards away did seem to attract them. would recommend this apartment for a stay.

Ideal apt and location

Had a lovely stay in the apt. Communication with owner, Hilary, was great. We’ve stayed in the complex before and the location is ideal for the Marina bars and restaurants and is only a short walk in to town. Apt was clean and spacious and well equipped. Pool area also well maintained. Great holiday venue!

A Wonderful stay in a wonderful apartment. Highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We have been to many holiday homes and would rate Hilary's place as one of the nicest, best located, and real value of all the places we have stayed. The place was very clean, modern, had everything we needed to feel at home, and was an easy walk to all the sites we wanted to see. Also close to a big supermarket which was handy, and few steps to dozens of restaurants and cafes. Communication was great too. We would highly recommend this wonderful apartment.

Lovely apartment

This was a lovely apartment to stay in, really lovely location, pool was great, had pretty much everyrhing we needed. Hilary was a good host and lisa her local friend was helpfull when we had a few questions. On a personal note, the only thing that could make this better is for the bedrooms to have curtains as the shutters they had let all the sunlight in at 0600 lol

Favourite Holiday complex

Have stayed in this complex on numerous occasions as it is a clean, lovely, secure complex which is not too big. Location is great beside the Marina, very close to shopping centre and a easy stroll into the town. The apartment was lovely, ground floor so easy access to pool. The apartment was spotless, with all required amenities present. Great communication with owner, would highly recommend especially for families with younger children.

Lovely apartment in a great location

Lovely apartment - really large, well-equipped and in a great location. We didn’t want to have a car on this holiday so this apartment was great - Pingo Doce just over the road, all the bars and restaurants of the Marina round the corner and not too far to walk to Meia Praia. The apartment is very comfortable and the pool is lovely. It’s great being on the ground floor and just having a short distance to the pool, brilliant for nipping across for a quick swim after a day out. The terrace was always in shadow when we were there, but it was a very hot week so that kept us and the apartment nice and cool. The communication with Hilary was very easy and she very kindly let us access the apartment early as we had a morning flight.

Lovely apartment in Lagos

Just returned from a 2 week stay. I would highly recommend this apartment. The location is great, it’s a lovely 20-25 minute stroll along the marina and over the bridge into town. The apartment was well equipped with everything we needed and the pool was wonderful. Would recommend for families. It would be great if the owners had a couple of sun loungers available to use as we couldn’t always get one in the common area around the pool (people do reserve them for the day from early in the morning) but it was lovely to sit on the shady patio.

Family break in Lagos

Very clean and well appointed Villa just behind the famous Lagos Marina and a short pleasant stroll to the bustling old town. A really nice supermarket is a stones throw from the apartment which is a great benefit as well. Pool was very clean albeit a little chilly for the faint hearted however after taking the plunge much fun was had ! Grounds are pleasant and generally well maintained. The apartment itself is very well presented with no shortage of plates and glasses. Would recommend this apartment for families and also couples

We traveled through Portugal this summer and stayed here for 8 days around the end of July. It is a really lovely, spacious apartment in a central location. Instead of Hillary, Lisa welcomed us with the keys - she was very friendly and helpful.We enjoyed our stay here!One tip: install blackout curtains in the bedrooms, especially in the master bedroom. The roller blinds that are currently there are transparent, and the exterior shutters cannot be completely closed, so as soon as the sun came up (around 6:45 a.m.), we were awake. In addition, the master bedroom also has a small window with no shutters or curtains at all. During our stay, we placed pillows in front of it.Fam Buning

We genoten van ons verblijf. Het appartement is ruim, lichtrijk en alle voorzieningen zijn aanwezig. Geen 5 sterren voor ons en wel voor de volgende redenen. Wij logeerden hier midden juli en de weg naast en de garagepoort onder het appartement zijn best wel aanwezig.Alsook geen gordijnen voorzien, waardoor het al erg vroeg klaar is in de slaapkamers.Verder genoten van het gemak om dicht bij Lagos centrum te zitten, het grote zwembad, de aangename tuin en de supermarkt vlakbij.

A perfect location.

We can't thank Hilary enough for her attention to detail and the excellent facilities at the apartment. She went out of her way to accommodate our every need and even took a very late night call when we couldn't access the property at first (as my phone was playing up!)

About the host

Hosted by Hilary Downhill

Host profile image
Hilary and Stephen - Property Owners

Hi, we’re a self-employed nurse and a hairdresser who fell in love with the Algarve back in the 1980s. During a visit to Lagos - when the Marina was just being built - we never imagined we’d one day own a home here. We bought the apartment new and spend as much time as we can enjoying it. It’s a pleasure to share our home with guests and know that others can experience and enjoy it as much as we do.

Giuliana - Your Lagos Host

Hi I'm Giuliana! I manage the apartment on behalf of Hilary and Stephen, and will be your first point of contact throughout your booking. I have lived in Lagos for the past decade and manage a variety of holiday rentals across the town. I look forward to sharing my local insider knowledge with you so that you can really feel like a local in Lagos.

Why they chose this property

We’d viewed a few properties before finding this one, with help from my sister who lives in the Algarve and helped us narrow down the best options. The moment we saw this apartment, we fell in love with it. Its position on Lagos Marina is unbeatable - with beautiful views across Lagos, and everything we could want nearby: beaches, shops, restaurants, transport links, and the countryside.

What makes this property unique

Our apartment is part of the only condominium on Lagos Marina that has its own pool, while still being just seconds from the Marina and town. It’s more spacious than any other property we viewed, offering a real sense of comfort and privacy. The condominium itself is beautifully maintained and benefits from 24-hour security, giving guests peace of mind throughout their stay.
