Last minute, Adrian and Marina accommodated us for the dates we required. Property is perfect location for Uber into town, takes about 5mins. House is perfect for what you need, cracking views of the landscape too. Can’t praise the place enough.
Arrived early than check in time so phoned to request an earlier checkin.Was informed that was not possible so we went to McDonald’s to wait for their phone call to tell us when we could check in.It should have been 2pm.We received a phone call to say that the villa would not be available even at 2pm as the owners grandson was having logistic issue to get him to airport. At 3.30pm we were fed up with waiting so arrived at villa and hung around until 4.15pm when eventually the cleaners finished.
The pool was dirty and did not get cleaned until our last day.There were cracked and missing tiles from the pool.No washing up liquid or dishwasher tablets or bin bags.No prior notice to the gardener or pool cleaner turning up.up.sarrived h
Everything very good, television not working/ we could not get it going!
Problem with the fob for gate, as it would not work when it was hot during day!
Très beau séjour. La propriété est très bien conforme a l’annonce et bien équipée.
La piscine est au top nous en avons bien profitez! Possible avec des enfants de toutes âges car elle est aussi sécurisée.
Seul petit bémol : l’état du portail d’entrée. Un gros plot en entrée frotte les véhicules s’ils sont bas. Il faut passer tres très doucement. Dommage qu’on puisse pas accéder par le portail de l’haut-relief de la propriété. Pour le reste excellent séjour dans une très belle propriété accessible et au même temps au calme.
La maison est très bien agencée pour 2 familles, bien équipée et bien placée pour visiter le Portugal.
La maison est à 5 mn du centre de Lagos en voiture.
Les propriétaires sont très réactifs. Un jardinier, un pool man et des femmes de ménage entretiennent le bien régulièrement.
La literie est parfaite. Les extérieurs proposent plusieurs coins en fonction du soleil de la
Journée.
Nous étions deux familles de 4 (enfant de 10 à 13 ans) et la maison est idéale.
Nous recommandons !
We had a lovely stay in the Villa, Lagos is very beautiful with lots a superb restaurants in old town. Lots of lovely walks down by the Marina which was fabulous too. The only down side the Villa was not in walking safe distance to the old town, we had to get taxis/Ubers there and back which added a lot of cost. As we were a family of 9 it consisted of 2 taxis. I did walk it a few times but far to unsafe for my little girl and my parents who are 70. Also all up hill on way back. The sun beds around the pool could do with replacing very uncomfortable or padded cushions putting on them. Could of done with a few bottles of water being left in fridge when we arrived, as we had nothing and no shops near by.
Comfortable villa with ample space and a great pool.
We stayed at the villa for a week with family friends of ours and it was perfect. We were two families of four people each and the villa accommodated us perfectly. A central area with lounge, dinner and kitchen with two bedrooms and a bathroom either side of it. The pool was excellent, clean, in good repair and a chap turned up at one point to perform the pools regular maintenance. Maid servi e also attended once to tidy and change towels etc. We used Uber to get to town of an evening and they took less that 10 minutes to arrive and cost less than 5 euros. It worked really well. All in all the stay was top class and didn't disappoint.
Lovely villa, great location for all ages
Pool gated, which is superb with young children.
Both cleaners, pool maintenance and gardener came during stay but were very respectful.
Lagos itself is thriving with marina and great restaurants. Fantastic boat trips.
Taxi’s easy to come by
Beautiful Villa Nestled in the hills with Incredible Views
Beautiful Villa. Panoramic views on one side portraying miles and miles of mountainsides, valleys and the ocean in the distance. Just breathtaking. Very clean, spacious with nice decor. Love the outdoor patios, several options for when its rainy or sunny out. Closed in patio was used a lot. The pool was fantastic and even had a corner outdoor firebox cooking area that we used for dinner one night. It was fantastic. Only issue was finding wood for the fire. The pool cover was a little dated and was crumbling apart when rolled up but didn't affect our enjoyment of the pool as it was clean and very refreshing. Also, there was a small issue of ants in the bedroom that has sliding doors to the pool. They were coming in from a small crack near the bottom of the doors. We sprayed some ant killer and it seemed to take care of them but these cracks should be filled. We enjoyed all the amenities that they had to offer; washer, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, oven. Had issues with the coffee maker, but a small problem overall. We were told we had soaps etc for the washer and dishwasher, but none were found. so it was a little extra expense to incur. Overall, I would still rent this villa a thousand times over. It is beautiful and so peaceful and just for the scenery alone, it was worth it. We required accessibility for one of our friends, and we found it to be very friendly in that regard. Also, we felt very safe here as it was a gated villa and somewhat remote but also but a 5 minute to 10 minute drive to main strip, the marina, the beach, shopping, grocery stores and restaurants. I recommend having your coffee in the morning on the outside patio and just stare at that picturesque view. It will melt your cares away. You have to rent this place..you will not regret it.
The villa is totally amazing and clean exactly how it is described on the website the cleaners come in every 5 days and do a fantastic job of cleaning the villa and they are really friendly and helpful the pool is plenty big enough for fun or a chilled swim it’s always clean and the solar heating just takes the chill off but the sunshine is so nice and hot u don’t really need it the town is literally a 5€ Uber away and the Uber drivers around here are super friendly I came here with 2 family’s and there was plenty of room for all to enjoy our time here I would defiantly come back again and would highly recommend anyone else to come and stay one tiny negative is the freezer space and fridge is limited but with the supermarkets really close by it’s not a problem picking up more food and drinks when needed marina is a brilliant host and helps out with any questions you may have she reply’s very quickly and is happy to help with what ever she can I would give this villa and holiday 10 stars if I could
We had the most amazing holiday here-we were four adults, two children and two toddlers and it was perfect for what we needed. We hired a car which was necessary as the villa is in a beautifully secluded area but it’s very easy and quick to drive to any of the local gorgeous sandy beaches and also into the city of Lagos.
Pool was a perfect temperature for the children too. Wish we were still there!
A beautiful villa situated in a quiet area. 2 Lovely showers/bathrooms and a well stocked kitchen (With sharp knives too!). We were 2 adults and three children, and this would quite easily accommodate 2 families without you feeling you were getting in each other’s way. The outside area was a great - good sized swimming pool, nicely sheltered from the wind, and two outside seating areas that get the sun at different times of day, so there is always the option of sitting in the shade. Although all rooms have air con, the house stayed generally quite cool if the shutters were left down.
Cleaners come twice a week and do the kind of job thought only my Auntie can do – even de-haired the hairbrush! Pool cleaner and gardener keep everything looking spotless – we never saw them, but we knew when they had been.
All in all, the nicest place we have stayed. Wish it was closer to the sea, but a 10 minute drive does get you there and to all supermarkets and restaurants. Highly recommended

Spacious and very well equipped house (including mosquito nets above every bed and aircon in every room) with a large pool and various sitting area's around the house. Large and nicely maintained garden with enough parkingspace for 3-4 cars. Only a few minutes drive to Lagos town and several supermarkets.

Fantastic holiday
For 10 days with 4 adults and 4 children (aged 9 & 11), this villa was fantastic. The outside space was amazing and the pool was superb. We walked to town most days/evenings, takin about 15 minutes to teach the marina, although it was single file on the road as it doesn’t have a footpath- but this didn’t pose any problems. Once at the Marina its a beautiful 10 minute walk to the heart of the old town and the buzz of Lagos proper.
The villa inside I would describe as rustic/traditional but everything worked and the space was ample for all of us. Two well working fridges was a real bonus and the air con in all rooms worked well.
We normally taxied home, either in an 8 seater or two separate taxis, at about 6-7 euro which is cheap as chips.
Overall I would definitely recommend the villa, with its amazing space and views, quiet, relaxed surroundings and large family pool.
Marina the owner was always available via email and very accommodating if/ when I contacted her before I left.
Great spot - get it booked!!!

Lovely villa with a great heated pool and beautiful views.
We were a family of 6 adults and one child who enjoyed a holiday in Casa Sebastiao in May / June. The villa is situated in extensive grounds with many terraces to suit any time of day and these are furnished with a good number of loungers, tables and chairs. The solar-panel heated pool is a good size and warm.
The villa is well positioned in a semi- rural location with beautiful views of the mountains and countryside but still close to the centre of Lagos which is only about 10 minutes drive away. Lagos is a lovely bustling little town with a great marina and a good range of restaurants, shops and activities.
Casa Sebastiao is well-equipped with everything you would need for your stay. However, we found that the water pressure in one of the bathrooms was low, but we managed alright.
In conclusion, a very happy holiday was had by all and we would return.

Lovely villa, ideal family accommodation.
A lovely villa, well cared for with lovely views and central location. Ideal for golfers and surfers. Our 5 and 2 year old grandchildren loved the heated pool.
The four bedrooms worked well for 8 of us and I loved it being on one level as we didn't have to worry about stairs. Plenty of parking too.

Lovely stay!
We had 8 adults & 4 young children & stayed for 1 week.
The villa was a great size, with lovely grounds & extremely clean on arrival. It is very safe for the children & we loved that there is a iron gate to get to the pool. The villa provides all the necessary appliances & a nice BBQ, however the oven didn't work. A bigger wifi usage amount is suggested, as it was very slow, sometimes not working.
The customer service was brilliant, the owners responded to all my queries beforehand & arranged transfers etc for us.
Lagos town is really lovely & well worth a visit & a taxi is between 4-5 euros. You can walk, but the main road doesn't have much pavement & is not the safest, so we chose taxis as we had pushchairs. There is a lovely tapas restaurant, which is a few minutes walk.
Would recommend this property. Thank you for a great stay.

Great villa for Lagos
Six adults and a baby stayed here for one week in July. The villa provided a comfortable place to stay for our week. We especially liked the pool and bbq area. Although we hired cars, we were still able to walk into lagos town centre easily. Great tapas restaurant down the hill too. We would come back and stay here again.

What makes this property unique
Our villa is large and spacious in a beautiful quiet location and not over looked by other villas. We have a well kept garden with flowering shrubs, oranges and lemon trees. We have views of the Monchique Mountains and Ocean. There is a private walled and gated pool area. We have air-conditioning in all rooms and free wifi. Our villa is in walking distance to the town of Lagos this will take you about ten to fifteen minutes, if going by car then it will take about five minutes, although, you may wish to hire a taxi on your return as we are on a slight hill that gives us those lovely views.
