Good position to explore from. The apartment is modern and everything that you would want. We had a couple of small things that needed sorting which were dealt with promptly.Supermarket was short walk away, also with a restaurant which we used a couple of times. Marine area had good eating places and all easy walking and felt safe at night time.Only one thing with Double bedroom, I found traffic noise and Car headlights shining in, the little square window needs to have a little blind to close.
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!

Thank you for the review . You are welcome to stay any time
We had a lovely week in Lagos. The apartment was fantastic and had absolutely everything you could need. It was beautifully presented and very clean inside. The pool area was great too and was never overly busy.Hilary was a great host and provided loads of useful information and was extremely responsive to any queries we had.We would definitely return.
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.
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.

Thank you so much for your review I am so glad you enjoyed it
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
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

Hi Kevin , thanks for the review . If you close the shutters at night time it blocks out all the light so I don’t really know what you mean
Beautiful apartment in well maintained grounds in a great location. Close to supermarket, marina, beach and short walk to town. A true home from home. Everything you could possibly need in an apartment. Lisa met us after a short delay late at night for check in. Hilary kept in contact throughout both before departure and during. Excellent holiday and hope to be back as soon as we can.

Thanks for the lovely review So glad you enjoyed staying there .
Thanks Hilary
It was a very easy process to rent the property and Hilary was very responsive owner in terms of queries I had before our visit. The apartment was exactly the same as the photos (except new sofas). It is a beautiful, well appointed apartment in a great location on the marina and a short stroll to the resort centre. We will definitely be back in the future

Thank you for the lovely review , it has been a pleasure having you as a guest .
I hope you book with us again soon
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.

thanks for your review and were really glad you enjoyed your stay, The problem regarding the sunbeds happens every year, as people reserve beds which isn't allowed . I will definitely look into providing 2 beds for the sole use of our guests. regards Hilary
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

Thank you for your kind review , so glad you enjoyed your stay
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.

Thanks for the lovely review Carolyn ,
The terrace is in the shade in the summer which is a godsend . It keeps the apartment cool and is comfortable to sit out . In the winter it’s lovely and sunny,
So glad you enjoyed your stay and you are welcome back anytime.
Thanks ,
Hilary
The place was adequate but the heating of the place was inadequate. The bedroom heaters were sufficient but the one for the livingroom was undersized. It had to heat the rest of the villa which was too large an area. Also the villa was on the ground floor with the underground parking lot below the villa. This and the complete tile flooring of the villa left the place uncomfortable. On top of this we had mold forming on the walls in the bedrooms. We became very sick the last two weeks of our stay and had to leave before the end of our stay to recover before our return home. When we told them about this they ignored our feedback. Will never go back.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations, particularly as guest comfort is extremely important to us.
We would like to clarify a few points for accuracy. The property is an apartment, not a villa, and it is equipped with air conditioning units in every room, all of which include heating and dehumidifier functions. These systems have consistently proven to be effective for maintaining a comfortable temperature and preventing moisture, as reflected in the many positive reviews from previous guests. We also provide an extra dehumidifier for guests to use in the bathrooms to ensure that these areas also stay dry.
During your stay, we experienced one of the wettest winters on record, with consecutive storms and unusually high humidity levels across the region. While this created challenging conditions everywhere, we were unfortunately not made aware of any concerns regarding heating or mould at the time.
We regularly checked in with you via both VRBO and WhatsApp to ensure everything was satisfactory, and did not receive any indication that there were issues. Had we been informed, we would have acted immediately, providing additional heating and addressing any signs of moisture or mould the same day.
We also understand that you mentioned becoming unwell during your stay. While we are sorry to hear this, seasonal illnesses such as colds and flu were very common in the area during this period and affected many people, including ourselves. There is no indication that this was related to the property.
We take all feedback seriously, but we can only resolve issues when they are communicated to us during the stay. We regret that we were not given the opportunity to assist you in real time and improve your experience.
We wish you all the best moving forward.
Unfortunately, there was ongoing construction work directly across from bedroom , particularly early morning. But nothing the owner has control over.

Thanks for your review , sorry about the noise . I was not aware there was ongoing noise . I thought work stopped during the holiday months . It must mean July and August
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

Spacios apartment perfectly located for town and beach
The Marina district of Lagos is certainly perfectly located with most amenities and the old town centre of Lagos within easy walking distance. The apartment complex and pool are well looked after. The balcony with a view of the pool offers plenty of shade. We found the apartment to be very spacious and reasonably clean. We would have appreciated more accurate access instructions for our arrival (we were given an incorrect key code for the building and right and left were mixed up in the instructions!). Also, the Wifi was at times somewhat slow. On day 1 I had to unblock the drain in the shower, since it would otherwise overflow. We did enjoy the Krups-Nespresso coffee machine though!

We're sorry to find that you had issues upon arrival with locating the building and accessing it! As we send the same generic information pack to all our guest, this is the first time someone has had a problem with access.
With regards to the Shower, we spoke over the phone and i explained that perhaps the water pressure had been increased for this to occur. This was resolved once you decreased the shower pressure. We do have our drains checked regularly.
We also spoke about the WIFI issues on the same phone call. We apologised for this and allowed you to access our personal WIFI for the duration of your stay.
This is the first time in all our years on the marina, renting our apartment, that we have only received two stars. It's very upsetting. We feel that we did the best we could to resolve all the issues you presented us with.
A great apartment with everything you need for a comfortable stay! The beds, the private porch and pool were also great! Being at the Marina was great for restaurants and coffee shops. It was also close enough to walk to old town too! There is a grocery store across the street. We found the location perfect as a jumping off point to explore during the day.
