As nice as the pictures

Very nice house, garden and pool. The house had a lot of light - natural as well as electrical. Maybe a funny thing to highlight, but it made a huge difference compared to other places, we’ve been in the south of Europe. Driving to Lagos wasnt a problem. Free parking.

Great villa in a quiet location, pool, gardens and villa layout is really nice. Outdoor kitchen and patio area are lovley, cant speak highly enough of this place, really spacious and well equipped for a traditional style villa. We paid the managment company to provided a welcome pack of food and drink which was a lifesaver as we arrived at night, everything was really high quality and tasty. Managment company, cleaner, gardener all really nice and helpfull. Lagos 7 in an uber, also really nice traditional restaurant in the local village. All in All 10/10 cant fault anything.
