Fantastic villa in Meia Praia with terraces, pool and garden 500 m from the sea

Beautiful spacious villa near the biggest beach in Lagos. Relaxed atmosphere away from the business of the town and marina. There were some errors on the facilities list, e.g. hot tub, where there was none. The host Maria explained this was an error and promised to correct it. The booking account was hacked when we booked, so we were almost phished, but Maria acted rapidly. Some basic kitchen tools were missing (Garlic crusher and cheese grater). Unfortunately, Meia Praia is undergoing rapid development, so construction dust and traffic was irritating in our area. Other than the above, Maria was an amazing host, we were allowed to check in early, we literally had the large clean pool to ourselves the whole week. No aircon but fans were provided for the mini heatwave we experienced. A great villa if you wish to be away from the rat race.

Our first impression of the house was that it was small BUT it is really like the Tardis far far larger than it first appeared.10 minutes walk from board walk and an amazing beach 10 to15 minutes from marina and bridge to Lagos and restaurants

We had an amazing time in Lagos at the Fantastic Villa. Our host Maria and her mama and Rosa were very quick at getting back to us if we had questions about how things worked. The villa is huge and clean. It was so close to everything. 5 minute walk to beach, 10-15 to Marina and 15 to Pingo Doce supermarket that has everything you need and more. I will recommend this to all my friends and family and hope to get back here next year. Thank you again for our wonderful stay! Donna xoxo

We stayed in this linked house for 3 weeks in January 2023 to live & work under bluer skies than the UK. The owner's Mother was pleasant and welcomed us. It is a great location and a short walk to Meia Praia beach with a lovely, well kept outside area which would be a great asset in the summer months and a roof terrace with a lovely view. Unfortunately the house is very dated and has no heating or air con. apart from some electric heaters which caused the electrics to trip if we used more than one at a time. The house felt permanently cold and damp and the 4'6" mattress was uncomfortable. The constant tripping even from boiling a kettle made it hard to work as we had to wait for the Wi Fi to reboot every time. We informed the owner of the issues and insisted an electrician visit. I told him through Google translate we felt the very old oven was probably causing a problem on the kitchen circuit but were told by the owner's Mother to cook on the hobs and not turn on too many electrical appliances at the same time! He performed no safety checks. Eventually we managed to work out a system to keep warm during the cold evenings and nights but were rather concerned about the general safety of the the electrics. For holidaymakers looking for a walkable location to Lagos centre who are happy to accept tired furnishings, old fashioned decor, will spend most of their time outside and eat out regularly it is fine. If this property is ever renovated it will be absolutely perfect.
