About this property

You will love a holiday in this beautiful, spacious apartment. Licence 161917/AL

A beautiful 2 bedroom apartment in historic Lagos. The apartment has everything you need including WIFI, UKTV and DVD, air-conditioning, dishwasher, lift, underground car parking to keep your car cool during the hot days and a family friendly pool. You can relax on the spacious balcony, which is accessible from all rooms, while enjoying music from the all-room sound system. Security in the building is high with the main entrance door having a security code and the flat a video entry.

We find the apartment very handy for the unique shops and great bars, both traditional and trendy. Restaurants are a highlight of a holiday in Lagos as they are varied, plentiful and good value. You can easily walk to the bustling marina and sandy beaches while four fantastic golf courses are a short drive away.

While you will want to explore for yourself the maze of streets that constitute the old town we are happy to share our recommendations for food, drinks and day trips. The apartment has an extensive guide which includes information on nearby beaches, golf courses, cultural outings, Lagos Zoo and Slide and Splash as well as our views on restaurants we return to each year.

Treat yourself to a holiday in Lagos in our splendid apartment but please just don't take our word for it. Read the reviews of the apartment as these are genuine comments left by guests.

This place was perfect for us! The condo was very clean which is always a priority! Very well stocked, like more than you would expect, things like some coffee, sugar, a few toiletries, a sewing kit, reader glasses, books, throw blankets for a cozy couch time! Just little touches that aren’t expected but very appreciated. The balcony was lovely for a morning coffee. There is a Aldi right next door which was very convenient. Check in was super easy as well. Very pleased with this stay

Pit stop in Lagos

We spent 3 nights in this spacious, airy apartment. It is an easy 15 minute walk in to town, and there is an Aldi literally next door. Kids made good use of the communal pool, which is well maintained. Underground parking space was a bonus as we had a hire car. Lagos is a great place to visit.

Fantastic apartment and pool!

We have had a super two week holiday in Lagos, Portugal staying in this first class apartment. Very clean and well furnished, it met all our needs. The facilities within the apartment are great. Aldi supermarket is right next door and other supermarkets are within easy walking distance. We found some very good restaurants within easy walking distance of the apartment. Our three boys loved the pool, which was a good size and well maintained. We would thoroughly recommend a stay here!

Excellent Apartment very tastefully furnished

Excellent spacious apartment with a large balcony and interior finished to a high spec. Aldi supermarket next door very usefull. Sun beds supplied by apartment excellent and lovely pool area surrounded with palm trees. Really enjoyed our stay. Only downside, although tv has lots of channels including sport the signal from Wi-Fi box does breakdown a lot. But I would book this lovely apartment again.

Second Stay

Second stay and just as good as the first one in 2014. The apartment had not changed and continues to be a good choice in a quiet area, close to major supermarkets and a 20 min minute walk into Lagos or the marina. Car hire would be beneficial to visit the surrounding towns. First class service from Steve from the letting agency when the tv went down. We love staying in Lagos and can highly recommend this lovely apartment.

Wonderful Apartment

This is a wonderful well laid out 1st floor apartment and only a short walk (15 minutes) for the old town of Lagos, marina and beautiful beaches. The apartment is spacious and very well maintained with good quality bathrooms and a very well appointed kitchen. The balcony area captures the early afternoon / evening sun and is ideal for dining and sunbathing. There is a (discreet) reasonably sized supermarket (ALDI ) next to the apartment. I very much look forward to returning to this apartment again soon.

Lagos trip July 2025

We had an amazing time and the apartment was perfect for our family, including 2 teenagers. It was a short 15 minute walk into town and having Aldi a couple of minutes walk around the corner was perfect! The pool was clean and the surrounding area well maintained. Having our own allocated sunbeds was a bonus. The balcony was bigger than I thought it would be and it catches the sun early evening which is a plus, along with the 2 sunloungers and a table for alfresco dining. The kitchen facilities and equipment were good and left us wanting for nothing. We didn't hire a car, as everything was on our doorstep, but having an allocated parking space is definitely a bonus if you wish to hire one. I couldn't recommend this apartment enough! We will certainly be looking forward to returning again. Thanks for an amazing holiday !

About the host

Hosted by Alison Prentice

Host profile image
We’re two brothers from Scotland who bought the apartment after falling in love with Lagos during a family holiday.

Both families visit at least twice a year; one golf holiday and one beach holiday.

We love to sit on the balcony in the early evening with a Vinho Verde (young, slightly sparkling wine) before walking to the marina, or old town for dinner.

Why they chose this property

The apartment is in a quiet residential area but within easy distance of many shops, bars and restaurants. It’s an ideal holiday location.

What makes this property unique

We love the long balcony which is accessible from all living areas. The rooms are spacious, modern and clean.
