About this property

The Governors House. A stunning property in a unique location, central Lagos.

*Please see our full Rental Terms and Conditions which are attached under the heading of 'Rental Agreement'. They are more flexible than VRBO allows us to state! Also, please note that stays of under 5 days will incur an additional charge for cleaning.*

A superb private villa set in the very centre of the historic old town.

The stunning Casa do Governador offers a rare opportunity as it is one of the few properties set in the centre of the old town offering total seclution, with gardens, a large swimming pool and private parking for several vehicles. This property really is a jewel in the heart of Lagos.

The accommodation has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, it is fully air conditioned and has a large open plan living space for all of the family to enjoy.

Outside there are private gardens, terracing with a BBQ for al-fresco dining and roof top sea views.

The beach is just a 2 minute walk away and all of the amenities that Lagos has to offer are right on your doorstep.

Lagos gem
This is a spacious rental with an amazing location. House was very clean, beds were great and whole house is air conditioned. Kitchen is well equipped and having laundry machines was an added bonus. Bathrooms were also well equipped and clean. Great outdoor spaces but really needed a cleaning. We couldn't really utilize the roof deck during our stay. Also the pool was not usable during our stay due to a need for cleaning. The pool was cleaned on our last full day and looked great afterwards.
