Beautiful area. We really enjoyed the town, driving around. The apartment is exactly the way it looks in the VRBO site. Espe always answered all my questions in a timely manner, very helpful.
The host was top notch with quick and professional responses. The unit was very clean and meet all our needs for two couples. The A/c was excellent in each room. The views were amazing and we loved the short but hilly walks to and from beach . We appreciated the extras like soap and shower gel. Our only suggestion would be to have slightly bigger beds and mattresses could be refreshed/new ones for optimal comfort. Otherwise we would recommend this property and would defintely go back there!
We loved Praia da Luz , and the apartment was a great place to stay. Spacious , very functional and impeachable. Espe was a great host and took care of any little question that we had. It’s a great location for families with kids.
Only 10 mins to beach, shops, bars & restaurant so basically everything!
Very clean with all mod cons, fantastic views & layout. Would highly recommend
Jim and Espe’s place is even better in person than in pictures. The ocean views from every room were truly beautiful. The deck was large and very comfortable. There was plenty of space in the unit to for our family to spread out, and town and the beach were a short, easy walk. The area is quiet, and the apartment was exceptionally clean. The kitchen was well equipped, and check-in procedures were smooth and easy. I highly recommend renting this place!
Within 1/2 mile walk of a couple great restaurants and the beach (highly recommend the Latitude). Plenty of living space between living room and back deck. The twin beds were definitely very hard beds; ought to be updated.
All in all, we had a fabulously great stay.
Espe and James’ are wonderful hosts! Their home is even more spectacular than the pictures. Honestly one of the best places I've ever stayed. Highly recommend! I’ll be back for sure.
We just finished an absolutely fantastic vacation in Portugal's Algarve coast staying in Espe's and Jim's apartment. As advertised each room did have ocean view and the apartment had a big enough balcony to enjoy the outdoors and watch the sun rise. The apartment provided all utensils and cooking ware needed and was plenty equipped. Espe and Jim were super responsive and very proactive communicating with us. Any questions asked were answered within hours. We received lots of valuable ideas what to visit and enjoyed the closeness to the beach and promenade restaurant's. We can definitely recommend this place and want to come back asap. Didi & Anju from Dallas
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful penthouse apartment in Praia da Luz. The apartment has been updated with modern infrastructure, flooring and fixtures. It has a beautiful kitchen with modern appliances and cabinetry, accompanied by modern furniture in all rooms. Beds are comfortable and bedding is high quality. It is tastefully decorated making for a very comfortable stay. The entire apartment was spotlessly clean and neat on arrival. The view from the balcony overlooking Luz and the shore is beautiful and a wonderful place to enjoy some sun and relaxation. Everything worked flawlessly in the apartment and check in was a breeze. The photos don’t do the apartment justice; it is more beautiful and larger than the pictures show. We were four adults and had lots of room for our stay. It is located in a quiet area with only a short walk to restaurants, grocery store and beach.
The Host is very responsive and provided friendly, courteous communications throughout the entire process; with valuable guidance and suggestions for our visit. Simply put, she was amazing to deal with. Thank you, very much, Espe!
In some twenty years of renting properties on VRBO in various parts of the world including a prior visit to Portugal, this property, together with the Host, is one of the top two or three properties we have ever rented through VRBO. We would return to this property again, without a doubt, and highly recommend it to other visitors.
It could not have been better. The three bedroom was roomy, airy, bright, well supplied, beautifully furnished and best of all was the convenient location that
included beautiful views. We spent our first full day exploring the little town and enjoying the beach and all the surroundings, restaurants and bars included! Day two we went to Lagos, really only 10 minutes away, and explored the cliffs and caves from above in the morning and took a two hour boat tour through the caves and grottos in the afternoon. What an adventure! We were sorry to leave but are looking forward to Monsanto and the Duro Valley.
Thank you James and Esme.
Such a great location and our host was so helpful with perfect attention to detail and guidance for local activities. The property is immaculate and we had a fantastic vat
We ended our trip to Portugal in Luz. We loved the small town. It had plenty of restaurants and grocery stores and a large, beautiful beach. It was so peaceful after being in Porto and Lisbon. The apartment was perfect and matched the description. The views from the main large deck are better than in the pictures. There's plenty of seating on the deck and the deck furniture was very comfortable. The location is great, just a short walk to the beach and restaurants and a short drive to Lagos. We spent two days just lounging at the beach. The apartment is very well furnished with fully furnished kitchen, and it was so nice to have beach towels provided. Loved having a bathtub/shower combination in one bathroom. The bathroom in the main bedroom was very beautiful with a large shower. Loved having AC in all rooms although we didn't need use it that much. The hosts, Espe and Jim, were very responsive to any questions and provided lots of information about the area including day trips and restaurant recommendations. Loved the binder with all the information. Our family had the most amazing stay in Luz. We highly recommend staying in this apartment and would definitely stay here again. Thank you to Espe and Jim for providing such a wonderful place to end our trip.
Great accommodations that are only a stones throw away from the beaches. It is a short walk down to the coastline to view breathtaking emerald seas. There is a great lineup of restaurants that came recommended by the hosts. The condo was spacious with great views. The owners reached out and assisted us every step of the way answering any questions we had.
We just stayed for a couple days this spring. The location is easy to get to, and the view of the town and ocean from the porches is a great way to wake up and enjoy your breakfast. It’s a little walk to beach but very easy drive if you can find parking (we had no issues but in peak beach season could be a challenge).
The place itself is very spacious with nice living rooms and porches.
We had a great trip, loved the day, and would go back next time we are in Luz!
We where pleasantly surprised with the place, the cleanness, size, comfort, and stunning views from every room definitely made the stay! Just minutes walk to the beach, shops and local restaurants. Espe and James made us feel welcomed from day one and made check in/out a breeze. We definitely recommend this rental when visiting Lagos!
We were very pleased with our stay at Espe and Jim's condo! Communication prior to and during our stay was quick and seamless, the home was clean and more than we expected, and the location was superb! We highly recommend booking your stay here!
