## Neighborhood

Praia da Luz is a small resort town located on the incredible Algarve coastline 10km west of Lagos. Praia da Luz or just Luz, was originally a small fishing village on the edge of sandy bay surrounded by cliffs. This sandy bay sheltered by cliffs means it’s a perfect family beach destination. Although the town is now more of a holiday resort it still retains some of the original features from its historical past. The bigger town Lagos is less than 10 minutes' drive away and in the other direction, you will find many small beach towns and breathtaking beaches. Perfect for family, beach and watersport (surf) trips.

Lagos is the perfect holiday destination with a lively historical center full of shops, (super)markets, a marina, bars and restaurants. It is known for its breathtaking cliffs and we highly recommend a boat, kayak or SUP tour to see them from the water. The town has a picturesque historical center, great food and friendly people. As it is located on the coast you can enjoy several watersports activities such as surfing and sailing. There are many activities for all ages and preferences in this area.

## Transit

You can reach Lagos in about one hour by car from Faro Airport and car rental is available in the parking lot of the airport. By train it will take about 2,5 to 3 hours.

Lagos has a train station (for travel towards Faro, Lisbon and Porto) and a bus station (for buses towards the west-side of the south coast) but do note that buses and trains only go a few times per day. You can easily get around without a car and there are plenty of taxis and Ubers available, but if you really want to explore the area surrounding Lagos, a (rental) car will make your life a whole lot easier.

Free public parking nearby. Parking in front of the apartment is not always possible in summer, but there will be plenty of space in the surrounding streets.

## Notes

➤ You can pick up the apartment key from 4:00 PM at the Estrela da Luz resort reception.
➤ Check-out time: before 10am

Very comfortable, clean and well appointed one bedroom apartment located close to the beach. Many good restaurants and grocery stores nearby. A great location and wonderful resort amenities. We would definitely stay there again and can highly recommend the accommodation.

Apartment in very good location, spacious and well equipped. However, disappointed that there was no change of linen or towels for the 10 days that we were there so had to wash them myself!! The balcony was good but the table and chairs have seen better days and need replacing as very uncomfortable. Cleanliness was generally good but the floors hadn't been cleaned so again had to do that myself. Also needs a new iron!l.

We loved this property. It was exactly as described, spacious, beautiful view, no issues, easy parking, etc. It was a great central area to do local trips. Would 100 percent come back. I gave the check in process a 4 because the property manager forgot to send our information to the reception so they had no idea we were coming. It was fixed fairly quickly though so not too many struggles. As for the apartment, it had everything we needed. My two suggestions to elevate it would be to provide some large plastic cups so we can sit with drinks down by the pool (there weren’t any that we could see), and to provide a few beach towels that guests can use. We did pay for the use of towels at the front desk in the end but it would have been good to know in advance. Sorry, one last thing, maybe some ice cube trays? We bought ice so manageable, though. Overall, an excellent place! Highly highly recommend !
