Further details
Lagos is widely reported as the most attractive town on the Algarve. It has avoided the worst elements of modern tourism and instead has chosen to develop its tourism with taste and class. There is a good balance between the modern marina and activities and the charm and history of the Old Portuguese town. The town center is a rambling maze of inter linking cobbled streets, with beautiful shops, restaurants and bars but also fine old architecture and churches. At night throughout the summer there are artists and performance artists and live bands during festivals (which are frequent). The atmosphere is exciting but very safe. Lagos is particularly known for its fine restaurants whether it be Portuguese, Italian, Thai, Indian, Japanese, Tapas, Chinese ... the list is endless and the quality excellent. But if you want to self cater there are good supermarkets within 5 minutes walk, a local fish and vegetable market and all within easy reach by foot. There is even a pull-along trolley bag in the apartment to make you feel at home.

May 2011 - Zoe and David had a fabulous time in Lagos and thought the apartment was fantastic and had everything that they wanted in it. Thank you for providing such a lovely venue for their holiday. I hope to visit there myself soon.
March 2011 - We had a lovely time again in your wonderful apartment. The weather was very good , sometimes too hot for the balcony. Thanks again.
Sep 2010 - We have just stayed for 9 days in the apartment, we found that the apartment was first class and furnished and equipped to a very high standard. Location was very good, with the beach, marina and town within easy walking distance with lots of very good restaurants We will go again.
February 2009 - While the UK was suffering snow, ice and floods, we were enjoying a great holiday. Our first week’s weather was similar to an English Summer, and the second even better.The apartment, its facilities and equipment were excellent.

About the owner
We are a married couple with children and have bought the apartment for the family to use but we need to rent the apartment out to help towards the bills. This is a special place for us and we therefore try to keep the apartment spotless for ourselves and for guests. Because we use the apartment a great deal ourselves we have tried to think of all the little things that make a holiday easy.
Year purchased: 2008
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We bought the apartment because we love Portugal especially the Western Algarve and most of all the town of Lagos. The reason we chose this particular apartment is that it is really close to everything, the marina, the beaches and the town and was brand new. We wanted to be able to have a holiday without needing to drive anywhere and we also wanted somewhere with a pool and an apartment overlooking the pool.
