The Algarve / West Algarve region

The Western Algarve is a superb holiday location all year round. Dozens of unspoilt sandy beaches, open countryside for walking, superb golf courses, and the historic town of Lagos, there is something of interest for everyone. Other places of interest a short drive away include Silves and Sagres with castles, cathedrals and Gothic buildings, and the traditional village of Monchique with its spectacular mountain views.
The climate is warm all year with an average of 300 days of sunshine, and summer breezes mean that even the hottest days are comfortable.

The Lagos / Central Lagos area

Lagos is the hidden gem of the Algarve! Protected by its 16th century walls, this picturesque town retains its old-world Portuguese charm. A fine selection of restaurants offering international cuisine, pavement cafes and stylish boutiques line the maze of cobbled streets. There is a superb fresh fish market, with fruit and vegetables for sale on the upper level.
Less than 15 minutes walk from the apartment is the fabulous Meia Praia beach - 5km of golden sand with every facility you could ask for, and the quieter town beach at Praia da Batata. A further 7 beaches are within easy reach, many of which are served by the local road train.
During the summer there are all forms of water sports including water-skiing, banana boats, para-sailing and other excitements for all the family. For those who prefer things a little quieter, sailing trips run daily from Lagos Marina. Boat trips are also available to view the grottos and sea caves, or to go Dolphin watching out at sea. To see dolphins close-up why not visit ZooMarine where you can even swim with them!
There are several golf courses close to Lagos offering excellent facilities in beautiful surroundings.
Out of season the Western Algarve is a quiet, tranquil place - ideal to 'get away from it all'. The surrounding beaches, cliffs and countryside are ideal for those who like to walk, bird watch, photograph, and enjoy the delights of nature.

Lagos is situated towards the western end of the Algarve in Portugal. The nearest airport is Faro, which is served by many airlines from most European countries.

Airlines flying from the UK include Monarch, Easyjet, Ryanair, Aer-Lingus, TAP Portugal, Thomson, Jet2 and British Airways.

Flight time from London airports is about 2.5 hours.

Monarch fly from London, Luton and Manchester, BMI baby from Cardiff, Birmingham and East Midlands, Jet2 from Manchester, Leeds & Bradford and Blackpool, and Thompson from Luton, East Midlands, Coventry, Bournemouth, Bristol.

From Ireland both Ryanair and Aer-Lingus fly direct to Faro. Aer-Lingus fly from Cork and Dublin and Ryanair from Shannon and Dublin.

Faro airport is about 80km from Lagos, and the new A22 motorway will get you to the apartment in approximately 50 minutes.

There are many car hire companies based at the airport, and by pre-booking it is usually possible to get a good deal. We generally use Sixt, who have a collection and drop-off point at Faro airport (unlike some other car hire companies who have a drop-off area away from the airport).

Alternatively, for those not wishing to drive there are either private taxis or minibuses - see http://www.faroairporttransfers.com/ or an airport shuttle transfer bus - see www.A2Btransfers.com. For best prices it is important to book both of these in advance.

The railway station is a short walk away and trains travel from here along the south coast, past Faro and on into Spain. The train from Faro to Lagos takes about 2 hours. You will need a taxi from the airport to Faro rail station, then a 10 minute walk to the apartment.
Pre-booked taxis from Faro airport to the apartment cost about 75 euros each way and can carry up to 8 people.

The apartment is located very close to the coach station in Lagos, which offers services to the whole of the Algarve as well as Lisbon and other areas.

“Fantastic!” This was our second visit to this apartment having visited last year with family (6 adults) this time there were just 3 adults. We loved Lagos and what made it for us was the location of the apartment only 5 mins to the Marina and a 10 mins stroll into town (much quicker if you are not walking into every shop that you pass!!) The apartment has everything you wish for, it is a luxury apartment and the two pools and jaquzzi are wonderful. There is a gym but I will be honest I didn't try it out. There is a gorgeous little bistro at the bottom of the apartments, the food and service there was also great. I can not recommend it highly enough. If you have a hire car – The Water Park is well worth visiting

“FANTASTIC” What a totally wonderful place! The apartment is so lovely, clean, well equipped and in the words of our 10yr old "totally amazing! couldn't have asked for better. Really liked the jacuzzi, pools (indoor pool fab when it gets cold outside), beaches and evenings spent in the squares of the old town watching the entertainers..oh and the fact that I could get wi-fi downstairs in Cafe Fresco!." Our 6yr old just says.. "when are we going back?" Definitely a place that can offer something for everyone, all year round. Food lovely (particularly the fresh fish), no need for car but if you do hire one there's plenty more to see within easy driving distance. The beaches are a short 10 minute walk from the apartment and are fantastic with the choice of the never-ending Meia Praia to the East of the Marina, or the smaller sandy coves of Praia Batata and Praia L'etudents to the West just below the Old Town. All the beaches are great for kids with shallow water (particularly at low tide) and gentle sloping sandy entry to the sea, with snorkling around the rocks off Praia L'etudents. The apartment had all mod cons including jacuzzi bath in the master en-suite, the ability to pipe music in to every room from the central hi fi system, Freesat digital TV, dvd player and the most amazing hoover built in to the walls!!! and everything you could need in the kitchen, even a dishwasher! but the local food is superb and reasonably priced, so no need for much cooking (says Mum!). Lovely welcome pack on arrival - thank you so much - really meant we could relax straight in to our holiday without having to venture out to the supermarket as soon as we arrived. Worth every penny. Vino Verdi (green wine) from the local supermarket cheaper for 3 bottles than one glass at our local pub in Surrey! Good range of restaurants offering everything from local Portuguese cuisine, fresh fish from the fish market to Italian, Indian, Chinese, Tapas and steak. Better value for money if you keep away from the main street through the Old Town. All in all, a great apartment, friendly town with good beaches, and something for everyone. Just what it says on the tin.

“modern stylish apartment near to beautiful beaches” the apartment was comfortable, well equipped and stylish and we even enjoyed cleaning with the built in vacuum system! easy to park and walk into the town centre and the weather was sunny every day. Cannot think of any problems the local staff were friendly an helpful we enjoyed the beautiful local beaches and went to the castle at Silves, walked around Monchique and Sagres which was very atmospheric and windy! it was ideally positioned as we did not have to drive more than 40 mins to reach them.

“Excellent location and apartment for family holiday” We had an excellent family holiday with two small children. The apartment was easy to book with professional yet friendly communication direct with the owners. We easily found the apartment and were extremely pleased with our choice due to the size of the apartment, facilities and central location. The apartment itself was very spacious and well equipped, our only concern on booking were the balconies given the age of our children (2 and 4), however once there it did not cause any problems at all. The apartment complex had an excellent English speaking cafe directly outside the front door, good swimming pools and even a small park which our children loved. It was also very quiet at night which for us was an important criteria. Lagos itself is an excellent area for a young family and we were able to walk to two different beaches with the incentive of a roundabout ride enroute. There were also numerous places to eat all of which were very accomodating to children. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we have already booked again for next year.

The apartment is simply superb and you have gone to a lot of trouble to make it feel welcoming and comfortable with a great sense of style and impeccable taste. Thank you so much.

Just a quick email to say thank you so much for a wonderful long weekend. Your apartment is gorgeous, and Lagos beautiful. I loved the way your apartment was decorated with total attention to detail. I think it would be far superior to most apartments for rent. Very cosy and comfortable, while also being very stylish. Quite hard to pull off!
