This is a great property at a nice location. Clean and quiet. Walking distance to everything. Great communication with owner and property manager. Would love to come back for another stay.
We stayed for 3 nights in April 2024 lovely clean and safe property, would stay again. Only downfall was showing up to no key being left at the property, luckily it was resolved quickly but again wasn’t ideal.
We stayed here 4 years ago and came back because of the location and exceptional condo. We loved the set up, perfect for two couples, everything you need and huge L shaped balcony is like a sun trap. We enjoyed getting our steps in walking to old town and having Aldi right beside was a bonus. You won't be disappointed staying here.
Beautiful apartment with a huge balcony. The apartment was very well equipped and perfectly located for grocery shopping as well as walking to transportation or the old part of the city.
We stayed as four adults for five nights. The condo is excellent, bright and well equipped. Having two full bathrooms and undergound parking for our rental car was a plus. Exceptionally clean and a very helpful check in process. Loved spending time exploring the old town, marina and beaches. Aldi next door and a Lidl not far away.Would definitely stay again.
We had a wonderful time in this spacious condo. It’s was clean, fully stocked with everything you need to cook a meal together. A 5 min walk to grocery store and 15 minute walk to town. The neighborhood seemed quiet and safe. The pool was great to enjoy at the end of a hot day.
Bearing in mind this was extremely last minute( booked Tuesday for occupying from Thursday!)- the communication was excellent, directions/access instructions excellent. Beds comfortable, great to park car up and walk into town- although we only stayed 3 nights it would’ve been great to stay longer and sample more of Lagos delights. Property is really well equipped for a longer stay- great kitchen,fabulous lounge and dining area and large balcony. Would definitely recommend
This was a lovely property which was very quiet during our stay. The check in process ran very smoothly with Lauren. We made use of the grocery store right next to the building and the pool for afternoon and evening swims. We especially enjoyed the large patio.
Apartment is located in a residential area with very good access to several supermarkets. The condominium is very well maintained with a good sized swimming pool. Ten minute walk to city centre and marina. Traffic noise may be an issue. Facilities in the apartment are good and the balcony area is spacious. Underground car parking bay included.
We stayed 5 nights. Apartment is very clean, has everything that we need. 15 min walk to Lagos Marina.
Fast communications with Andrew.

Very clean and modern condo. Everything one would need, was available.
Since we didn't rent a car, we used Uber to get to the Old Town area. (4-6 Euros).Very short drive. The walk is 20-25 minutes with hills. Something to keep in mind, should one have mobility issues. Very close to groceries and the bus line.
This really spacious and clean apartment was perfect for our needs as a family with young children. We found the apartment was in a great location for it to be quiet enough in the evenings but within comfortable walking distance to the marina, beach and old town. We also used Uber to get back to the apartment on the days we had taken on too much of a walk (for around 5 euros). Having Aldi and Lidl really close by meant it was easy to pick up essentials. The huge, sunny balcony overlooking the pool is such a lovely bonus. We’ll definitely return.
A modern, spacious apartment in an excellent location. Aldi supermarket literally next door! Convenient walking distance to the marina, restaurants, shopping and old town Lagos. Outstanding Vrbo experience!

Well…
Apartment was as advertised. There was no warm welcome. We are traveling from abroad but instructed not to take a towel to the pool. There was one roll TP for two women for 4 days. The beds were not comfy. The next place we stayed had wine for us and we were met in person by a nice man who explained everything. It made a difference in how we felt as renters.
The apartment was beautiful and well furnished in all departments including kitchen utensils etc.
There is an Aldi next door and Lidle, pingo doce a short walk away. Its a 15 to 20 minute walk into town or 4 euro in a cab. Pool area lovely, very clean and quiet. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful flat very close to Lagos centre
The flat is beautiful, immaculate, very comfortable and very good value for money. Sadly, we were't able to use the pool or the large terrace, as the weather was rather mediocre during our stay. Although there are a number of beautiful beaches which would appeal to families, we were a little disappointed by the region which we felt had lost a lot of its charm, due to mass tourism.

Wonderful Apartment in Beautiful Lagos
Stayed at this apartment, 4 people for one week and what an amazing time we had!
The apartment is spacious, clean and very tastefully decorated with everything you need.
We enjoyed breakfast on the very large sunny balcony and evening drinks before wandering down to Lagos town.
The town of Lagos is beautiful we always walked there and back be it for a day on the lovely Maia Praia beach or out for anevening meal.
There are so many restaurants to choose from and we were lucky to find some small family run places, you will need to wander around the lovely cobbled streets in the old town to find them, well worth it though!
The apartment owner Andrew was most helpful, and always on hand to answer any queries.
We will definitely return but stay longer next time!
Thank you Andrew for all your help and advice.

Lovely and well-appointed apartment with good local access and facilities
This is a spacious apartment, with excellent facilities and Andrew was happy to help with any issues we encountered. I'd certainly recommend the apartment to anyone visiting Lagos as long as you are happy to be in the more modern side of the town.
One or two things should be clarified - the Wi-Fi in the apartment is through a dongle and is not free, but is easily topped up locally and is of good quality. We spent about £10 on it and it lasted for the fortnight.
The freesat was not working when we were there, but Andrew was happy to have it sorted quickly, however as very few channels from England are now available, it seemed unnecessary to do so.
Also the automated garage door stopped working and we were told by a resident that this happens frequently so the secure parking was not secure and we chose to park on the street which was perfectly safe and did not affect the holiday. I only mention this as feedback as it was not a big problem.
The positives, of which there are many, include lovely comfortable beds, superb showers and plenty of crockery, cutlery etc in the kitchen. The outdoor space is roomy and the pool area very good with sunbeds locked away for personal use. We found that the pool got busy with people snaffling good spots quite early in the day but I don't know if this is typical at all times, and anyway preferred to drive to Meia Praia which is a wonderful beach - you need to have one of the chocolate-filled doughnuts from the beach vendors if you haven't been to the beach before!
Loads of good restaurants in town, and locally try Branson's Steak House which is really good and decent value. I love Lagos and enjoyed this apartment and hope you do too. The Waudby's are good hosts and have provided a good standard apartment which has easy access to several local supermarkets making it easy to live here.
Thank you and I hope you enjoy Lagos as much as I and my family always do!
Très bon accueil de Lauren.Appartement très propre.Très belle terrasse.Épiceries à proximité.Les restaurants sont un peu loin pour souper si on n'a pas de voiture.
Schöne Wohnung mit guter Ausstattung und toller Terrasse. Mehrere Supermärkte in unmittelbarer Umgebung (Aldi direkt nebenan). In ca 15 Minuten erreicht man die Marina, die Strände bieten gute Parkmöglichkeiten. Die Straße ist leider zu hören, ansonsten gibt es aber nur Positives zu berichten. Wir haben den Aufenthalt und den Pool sehr genossen.
