The Algarve region

The Algarve has beautiful beaches, a good climate, a scenic coastline and many places of historical interest.
The most south westerly point of mainland Europe is at Cape St Vincent, just 20k away and here you can see the rolling Atlantic surf crashing into the tall cliffs, the giant wind compass set up by Henri the Navigator, and sample the mouth watering fish and gamba dishes at the port of Sagres. Between Lagos and the Cape are some beautiful beaches and seaside villages such as Burgau , Praia da Luz and Salema. The westerly beachs are ideal for surfers.
Inland are many mountain villages, the spa resort of Monchique and historic town of Silves.
You can have days out on the train to Portimao or Vilamoura the cost being minimal

Lagos / Meia Praia area

The 5k long beach of Meia Praia with it's soft white sand is magic for children and beach lovers. There is so much space and is never crowded, even in the height of the season. The sea is great for surfers, sailors and all manner of watersports and the beach is guarded. Although there is no natural shade on this beach, we supply a parasol you can take to the beach or you can hire sun beds under shaded thatched umbrellas.You can also hire boards, pedalos etc from the beach cafes.
The famous beach of Dona Anna with it's wonderful rock formations is visible from the apartment and can easily be reached by car or local bus or you could walk along Meia Praia beach and take the water taxi across the river.
Lagos is a charming town which has not been swamped with tourism, maintaining it's culture, history and friendliness. There are lots of local shops to explore, a daily fish market serving a multitude of varieties of fish,
a long mosaic promenade to stroll along whilst watching the activities in and out of the Marina, historical places of interest such as the fort at the entrance to the harbour, the slave market and beautiful churches and numerous restaurants to sample the local delicacies. From the Marina you can go dolphin watching, visit the fabulous grottos, deep sea fishing or bbq trips and snorkelling at one of the many hidden coves and beaches.
Lagos is well served with supermarkets as well as markets selling very fresh local produce.

The nearest Golf Course is Palmares, just 5 minutes away, which is one of the oldest on the Algarve and is part links and part parkland. Just 10 minutes away is Boa Vista, a challenging course with beautiful views and the Championship Course Penina is also only 10 minutes away. Going westwards is Parque da Floresta which is only 20 minutes drive. Golf Packages are available.

Bowlers are also well catered for with rinks at Alvor and Parque da Floresta and at both places shoes and woods are available for hire and you are most welcomed to join in their roll-ups.

How to get there

Most Budget airlines, such as Flybe, Thomson, Ryanair and EasyJet fly into Faro and often have very low fare offers-

Most of the known car rental agencies work from Faro, but it is worth trying local firms such as Lago Rent on vvww.lagorent.com or email on lagorent@sapo.pt quote Ron Collins as reference.

Lagorent also provides a service whereby you can hire a car to pick up at the airport, drive to the apartment and return to their office in Lagos the following day. The cost of this is €45. The same deal is available in reverse.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
This apartment is larger than usual for a holiday flat being 150 sq metres rather than the usual 90sq metres.
The apartment is in a small block of 6 luxury apartments. There is private parking to the rear of the building.
All patio windows have security shutters and all are double glazed.

Further details outdoors:
The apartment, although very close to the beach, is situated in a quiet area of Lagos away from busy roads, noisy bars and nightclubs. A good night's sleep is almost guaranteed!
Yet if you do want to live it up at night it is only a short walk away to those bars and nightclubs. You get the best of both worlds.

There is construction of a new 5 star hotel being carried out in the vicinity of the apartment. It has not at all been a problem to our clients who have been there this summer and the reports we have had is that they have not found it at all intrusive or spoiling their enjoyment of the apartment or their holiday. In fact the men have found it fascinating to watch!

A popular day's activities for our guests is to spend the morning on the beach, amble back to the apartment for lunch, then either to return to the beach for more swimming, maybe surfing, windsailing or using pedalos, or to go into Lagos for sightseeing or a bit of retail therapy before returning to the apartment for sundowner drinks on the balcony before dinner. Idyllic!
