About this villa rental

*Please see our full Rental Terms and Conditions which are attached under the heading of 'Rental Agreement'. They are more flexible than VRBO allows us to state! Also, please note that stays of under 5 days will incur an additional charge for cleaning.*

A superb private villa set in the very centre of the historic old town.

The stunning Casa do Governador offers a rare opportunity as it is one of the few properties set in the centre of the old town offering total seclution, with gardens, a large swimming pool and private parking for several vehicles. This property really is a jewel in the heart of Lagos.

The accommodation has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, it is fully air conditioned and has a large open plan living space for all of the family to enjoy.

Outside there are private gardens, terracing with a BBQ for al-fresco dining and roof top sea views.

The beach is just a 2 minute walk away and all of the amenities that Lagos has to offer are right on your doorstep.

Great house in a great location.
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2025
The property is amazing, plenty of space, well equipped and great outdoor space. Beautifully large quirky house. Lovely open plan for a family holiday. Location is exceptionall, very central, within walking distance of many fabulous restaurants, but is still very quite and peaceful. Would definitely book again, if it werent spoiled on our return by the unprofessional management company "Algarve Retreats". They would not return our safety deposit because one of the umbrellas blew over and got damaged because of the notorious Portugese winds. They since charged us for two umbrellas, total scam artists. They maintained we should have supervised the umberellas, despite the fact that they were closed and we had gone out for lunch. Such a shame. Dont let it put you off the property but be aware of Algarve Retreats unscrupulous tactics. We would definitely book the property again but only if i could use another professional company and not Algarve Retreats.
