About this property

Apt. Aquarela, with communal pool and near the beach

Apt. Aquarela:
A fantastic opportunity to stay in a very popular holiday setting, this stylish apartment with sea view’s is located in the Iberlagos Resort, which sits on top of the Award winning Dona Ana Beach.

The apartment, set 1 row back from the cliff top, is just 70 metres – essentially a few steps from the large (40 meter long) communal pool. There is also a children’s pool and a snack bar restaurant - which opens in the summer season,

The award winning Dona Ana beach is just a few minutes’ walk, (270 metres) from the apartment, with access via walkway and steps at the front of the resort, below the pool area.

This newly modernised and very chic 1st floor apartment has been tastefully renovated and decorated. The finishing’s and furnishing give the apartment a clean, light and bright feel.

Sit on the large balcony and enjoy the views across the bay of Lagos and Meia Praia in the distance. The lounge has patio doors balcony and facilities include Plasma TV, DVD and Air Con. The kitchen is tastefully decorated with local granite marble and has a breakfast bar which separates it from the lounge. It features modern appliances including dishwasher, electric oven, ceramic hob, microwave, large fridge and freezer and electric juicer. There is a washing machine in the bathroom.

A corridor leads to a double bedroom with window to the balcony, and a twin room, both of which have Air Con.

The family bathroom has superior quality finishing’s, and this is where you will find the washing machine. There also is a 2nd equally nice shower room with WC.

Benefitting from secure off-road parking in the underground garage beneath the block. There is also a well-stocked Spar supermarket within 700 metres.

Lagos is just 1.3 km from the apartment and is a vibrant, lively town with its myriad of winding streets and hidden gems. Wonderful in the summer months with numerous restaurants, bars and eclectic shops, plus street entertainment laid on for visitors and, equally delightful during the rest of the year for those wishing to escape the weather at home. Trending now, “winter lets” would also be a possibility for this apartment, please ask for more information

Great location and amenities

The property was perfect for our stay as two couples. It had a fantastic, large balcony which was nice for meals or drinks. The apartment was perfectly located near the old town and many great restaurants.

Schöne Ferienwohnung in Top Lage

Sehr schöne Wohnung direkt über der wunderschönen Praia Dona Ana in einer Ferienwohnung-Anlage. Sehr schöner Blick von der Terrasse auf den Atlantik mit Morgensonne. Nur einige Minuten Fußweg zur Altstadt von Lagos. Also eine Top Lage! An der Poolanlage - die haben wir nicht genutzt- auf dem Weg zum Strand, gibt es eine Bar mit Getränken, Cocktails und Snacks. Außerdem gibt es einen kleinen Supermarkt auf dem Gelände. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, die Anlage ist jedoch sehr hellhörig. Jetzt in der Vorsaison war das aber kein Problem. Vermisst haben wir fast gar nichts. Einige Müllbeutel oder auch einige Spülmaschinentabs wären schön gewesen, wie wir es aus anderen Wohnungen kennen. Fast alles was an Verbrauchsutensilien gebraucht wird, muss man kaufen oder mitbringen, sollte man ggfs wissen. Einziges Manko… entgegen der Fotos, gab es nur eine Liege und den Sonnenschirm haben wir vermisst. Es waren auch nicht alle Stühle lt. den Fotos vorhanden, da wir aber nur draußen gegessen haben, war das gar kein Problem. Der Kontakt mit der Agentur war nur online, sehr nett und problemlos! Wir würden die Ferienwohnung sofort wieder wählen, sollten wir wieder nach Lagos reisen.

Great View and Location

The location is convenient to Lagos, sightseeing and shopping. The view from the balcony gives a good view of the water. The pics of the furniture both inside and out are outdated as they did not match. The property manager was responsive when contacted for a few items and we were able to get in early (Thanks Joao). To make this a full 5-star, a few things could be added for comfort.... place to put toiletries in front bath when showering, hook to hang towels in back bathroom, a normal mattress, mirror in the front bathroom, written instructions for TV, microwave and leaving and perhaps a listing of good restaurants, best tours, sightseeing, etc. That has been normal in other places I have stayed. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to anyone heading to Lagos.

An excellent stay!

We loved the location of the apartment. It has access to a large clean pool which is a plus for a family with kids like us. It is located right on one of the most famous beaches in Algarve area. You can walk to the town(about 10 min walk) which was always very pleasant. It had 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. Air conditioner was a plus. I loved the layout of the apartment as well as the large balcony where we had most of our breakfast and some dinners. Parking was super easy and we never had a problem finding a spot. Here are some of the negatives to be aware of; Please do go shopping on the way to the apartment because there is nothing, not even salt or enough dish washing liquid or hand soap to wash your hands. I thought it was very strange that all of the soap dispensers only had a few pumps of soap left. Not the most well stocked kitchen. We've stayed at many places through out Europe and this is the only place that didn't even have basic necessities like salt and dish washing soap. Also, no coffee maker which we thought was very strange. Balcony, while big and spacious with amazing view of water, it definitely needed some tlc as I saw mold and paint chipping. Also, the guy who greeted me at the door wasn't the friendliest but I assume he is the manager of the apartment complex. Also, some beach towels would have been really nice. Despite that, we loved the stay and we'd definitely come back for more stays. You just can't beat the location, the view and the convenience!

Magnifique

Nous avons passé cinq jours ,fin mai 2019. Très confortable et très bien situé, sur la falaise surplombant la magnifique plage Dona Ana, l'appartement offre une vue partielle mais très intéressante sur la baie de Lagos. À environ 10 minutes de marche de la marina ou l'on peux louer des kayaks et tours de bateau et à 15 minutes de marche seulement du centre ville pour supermarché, boutiques et restaurants. Nous avons adoré notre séjour. À ne pas manquer le tour en petite chaloupe pour voir les falaises et plages de la mer. Comme c'est petit, on n'était que 2 dans la chaloupe avec le guide parlant français, et on pouvait entrer dans les grottes non accessibles aux plus grosses embarcations. 55 minutes de pur plaisir pour les yeux. On reviendrait certainement Denise, Québec, Canada

Fantastic

We stayed in this apartment for the month of March and would have liked to have stayed longer. The location was great with an easy walk to the city centre, restaurants, grocery stores, train and bus stations. The apartment was well equipped and had a fantastic view from the large balcony. Also our contact Sarah was very helpful with places to visit in the area and arranging transportation to and from the airport. We would definitely recommend this apartment and and hope to have a return visit. Esther & Wayne, Canada

Beautiful Location

The location and view were amazing!! The check-in was bumpy as I was told to call before leaving Faro so that the person meeting me had time to get there. I called him and he said to call when you get to Lagos. When I arrived at Lagos I called him and he informed me that he would be there in 20-25 min. I am sure had he timed it better it would have been not much of a wait for weary travelers. There was no information given regarding pool key cards, just here is the suite if you lock the key in I will charge you if I have to come back. Not a warm and fuzzy greeting. The unit is gorgeous BUT it would have been nice to have some basics when you arrive. Soap, more than 3 rolls of tp for 4 guests for 6 days, basic kitchen supplies, dishcloth, sink plug to do dishes, salt/pepper. Cupboards were completely bare so if you are staying here be ready for an essentials shop. I brought shampoo of course but it would be nice to have a small bottle of it supplied. The unit is a short walk to everything, the beach, restaurants, and shopping. The beach is gorgeous and there is a snack hut for drinks and food there. There is a small shop on site and ATM as well. Security 24 hours at the front entrance is great. There is a pool as well if you are not in the mood to tackle the stairs to the beach. I would definitely stay here again it was just perfect as long as they offer the basics so you don't have to go out and buy it all as soon as you arrive.
