About this property

You will love a holiday in this beautiful, spacious apartment

A beautiful 2 bedroom apartment in historic Lagos. The apartment has everything you need including WIFI, UKTV and DVD, air-conditioning, dishwasher, lift, underground car parking to keep your car cool during the hot days and a family friendly pool. You can relax on the spacious balcony, which is accessible from all rooms, while enjoying music from the all-room sound system. Security in the building is high with the main entrance door having a security code and the flat a video entry.

We find the apartment very handy for the unique shops and great bars, both traditional and trendy. Restaurants are a highlight of a holiday in Lagos as they are varied, plentiful and good value. You can easily walk to the bustling marina and sandy beaches while four fantastic golf courses are a short drive away.

While you will want to explore for yourself the maze of streets that constitute the old town we are happy to share our recommendations for food, drinks and day trips. The apartment has an extensive guide which includes information on nearby beaches, golf courses, cultural outings, Lagos Zoo and Aqualand as well as our views on restaurants we return to each year.

Treat yourself to a holiday in Lagos in our splendid apartment but please just don't take our word for it. Read the reviews of the apartment as these are genuine comments left by guests.

Important note
We would like to respond to the reviewer who noted a lack of water park and golf course on site. Vrbo has confirmed this was a mistake and the information was incorrectly listed on their Expedia site. This info was never listed on Vrbo.
We are not able to respond directly to the review as the review info was also transferred from Expedia and not input directly onto Vrbo.

Pit stop in Lagos

We spent 3 nights in this spacious, airy apartment. It is an easy 15 minute walk in to town, and there is an Aldi literally next door. Kids made good use of the communal pool, which is well maintained. Underground parking space was a bonus as we had a hire car. Lagos is a great place to visit.

almost missed it.

It was a good thing the apartment was great because the check in was really nottttttt. Directions could have been many different apartments ( our cab driver finally after a half hour and our insistence left us somewhere in the area) We could not contact host and I don't think we ever heard from them. We did have some contact with VRBO, thank you. And a lot of wandering with two big bags. We loved the apartment location and the apartment itself was great. We also informed (by voice message) someone that the patio door did not lock. Never heard from anyone. Good thing we felt safe and comfortable at the location. All in all If we had better communication with someone (and now that I know where it's at) I'd differently return.

Spacious apartment, very functional

The apartment is very spacious, with a really large balcony. Its clean and close (really close) to large super market. All necessary amenities and also quiet. Has a nice view of the pool but overall not much of a view. But then, that's not what we were there for. Comes with a parking spot, perfect for our rental car we used to get around the Algarve. Checkin process is self-service with door codes and lock box code provided. No one was onsite to greet you, but it really wasn't necessary. The host was informative and easy reach when needed through Whatsapp.

Apartment on the edge if town

Spacious 2 bed-2 bath apt. with everything you need except beach towels & shower gel. We got permission to use the 2 towels that were there but are supposedly off limits. Balcony overlooks the pool, spare lot, road & BricoMarche store. It’s a 20-25 min walk to the marina/central old town. Driving directions & check-in were confusing. Finding the parking garage wasn’t easy. Collette had to guide us on the phone. The apt. is next to the Aldi grocery store. Use that landmark to find the place easier. Pool was cold but lovely. Hauling the locked-up pool chairs to & from the garage was unpleasant. Barking dog on the same floor. Master bath had black hair on floor & sink + dirty toilet.

Cabin class unit, poor location

We sometimes travel “cabin class’ (economy) and sometimes first or business class. This rental is definitely cabin class. The unit was very hard to find in the dark although the owner was quick to respond to an email seeking help. The location is poor. There are no restaurants or coffee shops within walking distance and the neighbourhood is businesslike and unattractive. My partner was distressed that there was no extra toilet paper rolls should we run out (we didn’t). There is no microwave. There was a liquid soap dispenser on the sink in the master bedroom but it was empty - I.e. no soap. Access to the garage requires a turn marked “do not turn.” There is only one key although the unit could accommodate two couples. Etc. etc.

This large, bright, well appointed apartment is well located. We were able to walk everywhere. 4 grocery stores within a 10 minute walk. Laundry in the apartment was a bonus. The kitchen allowed us to cook many of our meals. Our contact person was easy to reach and responded quickly.

Overall Pleasant Property

The flat is very spacious and bright. The pool and sunloungers were really welcome. Because it’s managed out of the UK, check-in is a bit impersonal (key left in a locker beside door). There was a mix-up but Collette was always quickly responsive. Overall, the flat needs a refresh … many of the things within are just old. The TV signal is hit and miss. The dishwasher is a bit temperamental. Getting into the garage is a bit difficult and you don’t know this until you try. And if you’re North American, bring house shoes to wear. I guess most renters are British, who wear their outside shoes inside (in Canada we don’t). We found our feet and socks getting dirty. Overall, it’s a nice property and I would recommend it for a family stay!

This property is a complete scam. Room was as advertised, Property was to have a golf course and water park on site there were neither not even within walking distance. We booked this property in particular above others because of the on-site golf course and water park. It is a complete lie. The owners advertisement for their property on Expedia CLEARLY states that both the golf and waterpark were on site. I addressed this with the owner immediately and again, the next day they refused to respond.

Spacious apartment

Very spacious apartment with most things that are needed. There was no safe which would have been good and we couldn’t find the advertised smoke alarm. The TV had all of the channels you could possibly want but it was very temperamental (that is being nice). The box had to be rebooted every time the TV was switched on, every time you wanted to change channel and when it lost the signal. The instructions for accessing the garage were unclear (access is actually at the rear of the building). The refrigerator had glass shelves missing which we informed the property owner of only to be told she was aware of it and new shelves were on order. If a family of four had rented the apartment there would have been a distinct lack of bowls for breakfast and/or dessert.

Excellent spacious apartment with a large balcony and interior finished to a high spec. Aldi supermarket next door very usefull. Sun beds supplied by apartment excellent and lovely pool area surrounded with palm trees. Really enjoyed our stay. Only downside, although tv has lots of channels including sport the signal from Wi-Fi box does breakdown a lot. But I would book this lovely apartment again.

Great Apartment

The apartment is very big, light and airy, all the mod cons anyone would need, large balcony and a big pool and sunbathing area, cannot moan about anything at all, really enjoyable holiday. Only a 10 min walk to the start of the main town area and about 15-20 mins to the lively marina. Beaches are an Uber rider of about 5 mins away, or if feeling adventurous like we did, a 35min walk to Porto De Mos.
