Perfect Location
This ended up being the perfect location for us. We are a couple who wanted easy access to reach the numerous trails and walk to old down town Lagos. The apartment was very comfortable and quiet and had all the amenities we required. We were there for a month and were quite surprised to find they delivered extra towels and bedding shortly after we arrived....a bonus. The unit had a western exposure with access to the balconies from every room. We lost our hot water once during the month but this was resolved almost immediately. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and hope to return again.

We loved our stay. There was only one problem. Our coffee filter jug had a broken handle so pouring the first morning we had boiling coffee everywhere.. I rang and asked for a new jug but did not receive one . We had no way of making coffee safely for our 10 day stay.

Great, modern stay
The apartment was lovely. It was clean and in good shape overall. The neighborhood was also nice - we were able to walk to the beaches nearby. The downside was the apartment amenities. Each bathroom had 1 roll of toilet paper and 1 little bar of soap, so be prepared to buy all of the basics (sponge, dish soap, hand soap, toilet paper, tissues or paper towels, etc.). I’ve never been in a rental without those household basics, so that was a little disappointing.

Wirkliches tolles großes Appartement mit kompletter Ausstattung
Selten ein so schönes Appartement gehabt. Komplett ausgestattet, toll auch der integrierte Grillplatz auf der Terrasse. Zwei große Balkone mit Blick auf den schönen Pool. Sehr hochwertiges Haus mit genug Parkplätzen. Toll auch das separate Badezimmer für das Eltern-Schlafzimmer. Blick vom Balkon auf die Sportanlagen eines Luxus -Hotels, während unserer Zeit hat der FC Porto dort trainiert. Allerdings hört man so auch die typischen Fußballgeräusche vormittags . Kleine Bauruinie stört etwas den Ausblick. wlan etwas schwach. Den Vermieter haben wir nicht gesehen, es lief alles über Whattsapp. Leider hat er eine Anfrage zu nicht ganz heißen Wasser ignoriert. Wir waren trotzdem extrem zufrieden mit dem Appartement und würden es sofort wieder buchen.

Wohlfühlen in perfekter Lage
Die Fewo ist in einer sehr gepflegten, sauberen und ruhigen Anlage. Sie liegt etwas außerhalb, aber trotzdem zentral. Parkplätze sind direkt vor dem Haus in ausreichender Anzahl vorhanden. Es gibt einen Swimmingpool mit Sonnenliegen. Die Wohnfläche ist ideal für 4 Personen. Es gibt 2 Bäder mit Dusche bzw. Badewanne und 2 große Balkone mit Grill und Esstisch mit Stühlen bzw. mit Sonnenliegen. Vor allen Fenstern sind Fliegengitter, so dass es keinerlei Insekten in der Wohnung gibt. Außerdem ist die Wohnung vor direkter Sonneneinstrahlung geschützt. Man benötigt also prinzipiell keine Klimaanlage (auch wenn diese vorhanden ist). Supermärkte (Lidl, Aldi und Intermaché) sind in wenigen Minuten per Auto erreichbar. Zum Strand sind es nur wenige Gehminuten. Insgesamt ist die Fewo ein perfekter Ausgangspunkt für alle Unternehmungen. Wir haben uns von der ersten Minute an wohlgefühlt!!! (Reisezeitraum Juli 2019)

Great Value for Accomodation!
This property was a delight, spacious and comfortable. It was especially nice to not have to fight for a parking space. A few improvements would have made the apartment even better; the plumbing pipes made a sound consistently throughout the day; the mattress pads crinkle and are flaking; the dining chairs are very worn and flaking. There are actually 2 nice bathrooms, not just one as listed in the information. The view out the back veranda is hindered by an abandoned concrete structure and unkept building lots.

Super Unterkunft in Top-Lage
Die Unterkunft hat keine Wünsche offen gelassen. Zwei große Schlafzimmer mit tollen Bädern. Die zwei Sonnenterrassen waren ideal. Es wurden sogar die Handtücher 1x pro Woche gewechselt. Die Wege zu den Stränden sind zu Fuß problemlos machbar und es sind viele Lebensmittelgeschäft in Lagos, zu denen man in wenigen Minuten mit dem Auto fahren kann. Die Wohnung ist für Familien mit Kindern perfekt, Fahrstuhl im Haus und der Pool direkt hinter dem Haus. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt komplett. Der Kontakt war sehr nett. Wir würden sofort wieder hinfahren!

It could've been nicer....
We were six young women staying for five days. Everything was clean when we arrived and it looked exactly like the pictures. Great! On the balcony was some stuff left from workers but we weren't too concered. Unfortunately, we arrived two hours later than anticipated, around 7 pm, since our flight was delayed. Because of that, nobody showed us the property e.g. where we could put our trash, how to get to the pool ect. We realised that we only had two rolls of toilet paper which is why we quickly went shopping that same night. Since we had to leave so quickly we didn't realise that we were missing blankets for the sofa bed in the living room. When we got home and saw that, we tried contacting somebody and after a pretty rude 'No, I can't help you with that at this time' (11 pm) we received a call back 45 minutes later and a maid had to come at midnight to deliver a blanket. Although it was a lot of stress, we eventually were happy that everybody had a bed to sleep in with blankets and pillows. The next day we were all getting ready to go out when all of a sudden there was a man standing on our balcony. Turns out he was one of the workers and came to get the stuff. We were a bit startled and told the agency about it. They apologized and told us, it wouldn't happen again. But once again, these men cam the next morning, while we were still in bed and showering etc. Please, please, please make sure to tell your visitors before sending workers on their balconies! We were extremely concerned. Once again, they apologized but we didnt leave the blinds up anymore when we left, since there were so many people who could just get on the balcony on the second floor. Overall we did have a great time though! Be aware that the chairs are quite old and the white leather comes off and you will have it in the whole apartment. Also, the sofa bed might be fine for two children or one adult, but two adults can't sleep comfortably on there. We would have liked to have some more stuff in the beginning as we had to buy basically everything (trash bags, toilet paper, oil etc.) and left a lot there as we couldn't take it home. But most of thecommunication went really smoothly, especially before our arrivel and they made sure, we had a transfer booked etc.
