Family Party May 2009

In a perfect location for our 3-family party the villa was just as described on the web page. We opted for a private mini-bus airport transfer, which worked out fine, as we could walk to Meia Praia beach and Lagos Town via the Marina. This saved us money and car travel stress.
The facilities were all there with plenty of room, all our extras were there too, which had been kindly and efficiently provided by the owner and local agent. The whole villa was well appointed, modern, spotless and situated in a quiet cul-de-sac.
Arrival and departure times were arranged to suit our flights, which with infants was a big help.
Friends who had found good accommodation and in particular good customer service, which is what we found, recommended Holiday-Rentals.co.uk.
We found a small Spar type shop and local Bar within 5 mins walk, terrific when you just want to pop-out for a re-fill. We did not try the Mandarin Chinese Restaurant, which was close-by. There are plenty of eating places to suit all budgets in Lagos town and by the Marina, just take your pick. We liked MEU LIMÃO, a tapas bar in front of the Golden Chapel. A short taxi ride back for a few Euros means you will be home quickly and safely.
On Meia Praia beach we did not have time for the catamaran sailing, but did make time for the Gaivota Branca beach restaurant. If you have time visit Monte da Casteleja vineyard for an interesting wine tasting or pop-in to Garrafeira A Cave, Rue 25 de Abril, to buy a bottle and get some advice on the best port for you.
All in all a successful holiday at a good venue, we shall return to Lagos.
