We had a great stay! The apartment was clean and comfortable, and the air conditioning was a plus. The location was perfect right in the centre and within easy reach of all the street Restaurants. Georgia was lovely and communication with her was excellent. Gerard was also lovely and recommended a number of good restaurants and things to do in the area. would definitely recommend.

Had a few hiccups at the start of my trip, but overall a good stay. The location can’t be beat. It’s right in the heart of old town and despite the late night crowd, the master bedroom still stays very quiet at night. Kudos to this host because an actual human being also met me for check-in, which was helpful given how different the key/locking mechanism of the front door is in comparison to other rentals. She was very kind and personable.While there are areas for improvement (there are/were some minor maintenance issues that gave me pause, particularly as a solo female traveler ) and I wouldn’t classify this as a luxury stay, I do think it’s a good value for what you get, given the location.

Great location, in the heart of old town Lagos- if you like being close to restaurants and shops, this is the area to be in.The apartment was perfect for our needs. However, the only downside was that it took a long time for the water to warm up in the shower-so every shower was a decision of whether to waste or to wait for a warm shower.Regardless, I would stay here again.

Great location and nice accommodations. HOWEVER, I will never stay here or rent from Algarve Resorts again. This company seems to focus on what’s convenient for them rather than what a guest might need. Here are several examples of the terrible communication & service we experienced.1. We were sent confirmations for two different apartments. No one mentioned a change to the plan so I had to contact them to ask which was the accurate confirmation.2. Upon arrival, we agreed to meet our host at the apartment. She never mentioned that you canNOT drive to the property - it is on an alleyway. We drove in circles. We communicated with her about where we were and she kept saying “you’re very close”. We sent our location. But she provided no guidance. We were actually less than 50 feet away at one point but she couldn’t tell us how to get there or that we needed to park and walk! She was a native English speaker.3. When she showed us around the apartment, she neglected to communicate that there were hidden blinds that were electronically managed and could provide both privacy and black out for sleeping.4. When I asked for more toilet paper and bath gel (4 of us there for 3 days), she said their procedure is to provide only the first days worth.5. When I requested maintenance to get hot water in the bathroom, she explained that the temp was set approp for this property and no maint was needed.Too bad for apt owner that this mgmt company will lose biz for them.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 October 2025
We take all feedback very seriously and as a result I have taken the time to look further into this matter. As a result, I am quite shocked by this poor review for a property that is clearly advertised as not having parking available and being situated in the centre of the old historic town. There is a map on the VRBO advert that shows the exact location of the apartment and we always send out full arrival instructions, which include GPS coordinates in good time prior to the arrival. On the day of arrival further instructions and images were sent via whatsapp showing exactly where parking is available closeby and exactly where the property is situated. I fail to see what else we could do to make it easier. The fact or the matter is that these clients chose to totally disregard all of the instructions and then blame our staff for their own incompetence. We 'sell' accommodation on a self catering basis, which means that beyond the basic amenities (soap, shampoo, washing tabs and dishwasher tabs, loo roll) guests have to cater for themselves. On investigation, we found no fault with the hot water. May I politely suggest that if you want daily replenishments and a personal shopper you choose a hotel in future.

Great apartment in the center of old town Lagos

My wife and I rented this apartment for one week in July 2018. We were very pleased with all aspects of our stay and would definitely want to stay here again the next time we are in Lagos. We didn't have a car and arrived by train. Adrian (the property manager) was very friendly and helpful. He picked us up at the train station and drove us to the apartment to drop off our luggage, showed us around the apartment and made us feel comfortable. There is very little parking near the apartment, so it is best for someone who plans to walk or use public transportation (train/bus). There are several very good restaurants very close by. We especially liked Casa do Prego and Mar d'Estorias, which were both within one block. There is a small grocery store within a block, with a larger grocery about one mile away. The beach (Praia da Batata) is a 10 minute walk and you can walk from beach to beach through a series of tunnels - at least when it's not high tide. The "alley" in front of the apartment is only for pedestrians (i.e., no cars) and is relatively quiet. We felt very safe, but were not out late at night. The apartment is on the first floor (meaning "second" floor) and you can either use the stairs or a small elevator. The bedrooms and bathroom are of good size. One of the bedrooms faces the alley and there is a very bright street light right outside, so you would need to keep the blinds drawn. We stayed in the back bedroom which opens into the courtyard. There are good air conditioners in each room that can be used when needed. The internet was reliable and fast. In summary, we very highly recommend this apartment.

The property was in a great location, walking distance to beaches and town. The apartment was very clean. Plenty of room for 4 adults. Shower took a long time to get hot, so you need to plan ahead. Although there’s only sheer curtains on bedroom windows, there are electric darkening shades that we didn’t discover until last day. Unfortunately we arrived late at night and there was an issue with checkin. Property mgmt company did allow us a late checkout though.
