The Algarve / West Algarve region
Lagos - The town was founded by the Phoenicians. The Moors made it an important trading town before the re-conquest by Christian armies in 1241. It was used by Henry the Navigator as a base for African trade and remnants of the first slave market in Europe can be found alongside the old custom house. A visit should be made to the Igreja de Santo António and the museum next door being one of the few buildings which survived the 1755 earthquake. Lagos has a daily fresh fish market, artisan shops with pottery and clothing bargains and many small craft shops. The historic old town is steeped in over a thousand years tradition. Jugglers, craft markets and artists are common in the cobbled streets. The pedestrianisation of the town centre has been a major success and the town is very lively in the evenings. With its winding streets, it retains an old world Portuguese charm and relaxing atmosphere. It's easy to sit in the marina and watch the world go by, but why not take a stroll along the beautiful waterfront or visit the nearby sandy beaches. The choice of cafes, restaurants and shopping is excellent. At night, Lagos comes alive with open air stalls and street performers.

It enjoys the sun from first thing in the morning until just before tea time - making it ideal for private bathing. The sun floods into the apartment from early in the morning and will last on the balcony until late in the afternoon. We found this perfect because not only were we able to enjoy breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea in the sun but then chill out over a late evening meal in the warm tranquil shade.
There is a large pool and a children’s pool as well as beautifully maintained garden areas. This is free exclusively to the residents of the gated condominium area called Dom Manuel. This condominium is unique in that it is the only development of apartments in the Marina which has its own communal pools.

This is worth checking prior to booking !
By our pools, sun loungers + table & chairs are provided free of charge for the use of guests. There are sunbeds and umbrellas around the pool area and there is also a number of small tables and chairs on a decked area.
There is a grassed area for children to play safely and the children's pool is ideal for supervised toddlers. It is very relaxing and friendly around the pool area and children can always find somebody to play with!
