Wonderfull 2 weeks in charming huge villa
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009
Date of Stay: September 2008
I stayed in the Colonial-style Villa with a group of friends in September 2008. I knew the property already from the past, but my friends had a nice surprise when the arrived: a very spacious and charming villa with large and beautiful garden, and even for me, seeing it again, I thought the same!
We had enough space for everybody in the bedrooms, equipped bathrooms, but we enjoyed aspecially really large sitting room and dining room. Bautifull were our breakfasts at the silent upper terrace with ocean-view. Kitchen was very usefull too, and we used table tennins at bottom terrace.
Who was too lasy to walk to a beach or to go to some trip, he spent the afternoon by the swimming pool in the middle of the garden, on a sunbed or in shadow of big palm trees.
Only difficult thing was to decide which from nice beaches to choose. If to walk to downtown, to buy something with in a supermarket btw (5minutes walk) or to have a snack or a lunch in some restaurant of downtown (15-20min walk), than going to Batata, bussy but nice beach direct in the town, or to walk little more along so impressive cliffs to the some small beaches hidden among them. I prefered to continue to walk from the town along the ocean to more quiet parts of Meia Praia beach, huge golden sandy beach with some bars and with some near empty parts. Friends who were too tired to have a stroll along the beach they used municipal minibus or local train for going from/to the middle of this beach.
We made some trips even direct from Lagos too, seeing dolphins in Atlantic, or to see all that nice cliffs with plenty of caves from a small boat. For the other trips we rented a car to see the other beaches, small and very quiet ones western from Lagos, near empty ones with huge waves for surfing along western coast, or more bussy and full equipped eastern from Lagos. There are many places for sightseeing there and around too, local but very romantic.
I can really recomand this place for everybody who prefere to relax during his/her vocation, inside the spaciouse nice villa, outside on some of great beaches, or just by pool in the garden. Without any stress, at very nice place, clean and tranquil.
