Lovely apartment in a great location

My wife and I stayed here in Sep 09 and loved it. The apartment is lovely - quite a new build, in spotless condition. Furnishings are un-fussy and clean and simple. Secure underground parking is a bonus if you have a hire car.
The balcony is street-side and offers great people watching during that cool 7pm beer! The pool area is lovely and quiet (least it was when we were there!) making it very relaxing.
Lagos has a great mix of people - young couples, families, older couples, party people - and there's something for eveyone.
The walk into town is genty downhill, a little over 5 mins. Once there, there's a multitude of bars/restaurants/cafes to choose from. We recommend grabbing a drink outside at the Gil Eanes bar in the corner of the square and watching the world go by, or taking in some of the buskers or entertainers that frequent here (though the human statue bloke was terrible - couldn't stand still for more than 30 seconds before he needed a fag break!).
Dolphin Seafaris (down at he Marina, the ones with the large, VERY fast red boat) is a must - great value, great experience.
The supermarket over the road is great for essentials, but we found the big Intermarche about half a mile away much better for stocking up.
Great communication form the owner, and we were met promptly by the representative on arrival.
We had a great time, and when we (inevitably) return to Lagos, this will be our definite first choice again.
