Fantastic villa in a lovely location.  A car is needed as it is out in the countryside but that was what we liked about it.  Located only 5/10 minutes drive from Lagos and the A22 so perfect base for exploring. 
Villa is well appointed and the pool is a good size.  Being able to sit on the terrace and look out on to countryside was lovely.  We thoroughly enjoyed out stay and truly hope we will be back!!!!

Casa Chrisanda, Lagos, Algarve

Friends from Ipswich, United Kingdom

A superb villa in a small development on a hillside with a good size pool.  We hired a car which was a must but you are only a 10 minute drive from Lagos with all you may need. Abundant restaurants supermarkets and shops but the town has a real charm with its marina, narrow streets and beaches.
Trips we enjoyed were kayaking to the sea caves, boat trip to see dolphins, cliff top walk from Lagos to Luz, visited Monchique, Portemao, Alvor and Sagres. 
The villa itself is in a quiet area but the N125 dual carriageway can be seen and heard hence 4 * for area.

We had a wonderful stay. The villa was perfect. The inside was spotless and very spacious. It had everything we needed for self catering and was home from home. The outside was beautiful. The kids loved the pool and the weather was so pleasant I had to drag myself away. The location was fab. Less than 10 mins drive to Lagos, plenty of really good restaurants for lunch and dinner. And Lidl and Aldi were close by also. Was a great base for sight seeing many town's less than 1 hour away. The owners were lovely and very helpful. Directions to villa straightforward. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you.

We have just come back from staying at 
Casa Chrisanda and had a wonderful time . The villa is beautiful , in a quiet location , spotlessly clean and light and airy . We spent a lot of time at the villa as my husband loves to cook and the kitchen was really well equipped . The pool is really clean we were in it everyday . Lovely gardens to wander round and the gardener gave us some great recommendations . We used the bar b q which is also very good . Only 10 minute drive into Lagos to stock up on superb food in several supermarkets . The beaches are within easy reach as is the beautiful West Coast countryside . We thoroughly recommend Villa Chrisanda and would love to return . A big thank you to the owners who make everything run so smoothly and for allowing us to stay in their beautiful villa .

We had an amazing week at the villa. It's the only holiday I have ever been on and didn't want to leave. 
There was everything you need at the villa and more. It was spoitlessly clean there. Location was very good. The town had everything you need there. The beach was slightly over crowded for my liking but I did expect that because of the date we went (august) I was told by many locals that there is alot of beaches there that are quieter. Tina was very very helpful, no question was too much for her 😁 
Rogerio the pool cleaner was also very helpful and was willing to answer every question asked. He told us of a few restaurants which we didn't try this time but intend to try next time we go. 
This is definitely a holiday I will be returning to annually. My brother in law and my partner have both asked me to add it was the best holiday they have ever had. Thank you Tina for everything looking forward to next August's holiday already 😁😁

The villa has everything you could wish for a lovely relaxing holiday.  Beautifully clean and maintained pool and gardens, a shady area for dining, a good barbeque area and plenty of room for six adults. The kitchen is spacious and extremely well-equipped for self-catering and includes dishwasher and washing machine.  The three bedrooms are large and airy as are the bathroom and en-suite.  The views from the villa are lovely and it is unoverlooked.  The area is peaceful and quiet, but within easy driving distance to the local town of Lagos, and beyond.  Plenty to see and do within easy reach.  Rogerio, the pool and garden man, is extremely helpful and has loads of information about the local area, places to visit, restaurants to try if you require.  Rogerio maintains the pool and garden to an extremely high standard.  From booking, to check-in and check-out we had really good communication with the owner, who always responded quickly to e-mail queries and provided lots of helpful information. A really enjoyable holiday in a lovely villa which we thoroughly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful villa, it was much bigger than expected and very well equipped, with fabulous views of the countryside. The pool was excellent and well maintained, and having a gate to the pool steps helped create a safe boundary for my 3 year old. There is plenty of outdoor space and the gardens surrounding the villa are beautiful. The villa is in a very quiet neighborhood and the addition of roller shutters on all the patio doors made it very secure. 
A hire car is essential as the location means there isn't anywhere within walking distance, but the marina and beach is only a 10 minute drive away and there are plenty of supermarkets within a five minute drive, which made self catering very easy. 
I was very happy with the whole booking process and Tina was very helpful and answered all my questions quickly. Having Tina available to help at a moment's notice if required was very reassuring. I don't normally go to the same place twice, but I would definitely consider it with this villa, one of the most enjoyable holidays I've had and with  three children that is something special.

Der Aufenthalt in der Casa Chrisanda war super. Das Haus, die Umgebung und der Pool sind in Wirklichkeit noch schöner, als dies die Bilder zeigen. Die Betreuung durch Tina im Vorfeld des Aufenthaltes war top! Das Haus und sämtliche Anlageteile sind in einem einwandfreiren, sehr gepflegten Zustand. Das Haus und der Pool sind sehr sauber. Das Haus liegt in einer sehr kleinen ruhigen Feriensiedlung etwas abseits von Lagos. Es ist die unterste Villa und man hat einen ungetrübten Blick in die Talebene , der Blick wird nur durch die in der Ferne liegende Autobahn getrübt, was aber nicht wirklich stört. Die nahegelegene Stadt Lagos und das Meer sind mit dem Auto in rund 5 Minuten sehr gut erreichbar.

Staying at Casa Chris Anda was great . The house , the surroundings and the pool are more beautiful than the pictures show in reality . Supervision by Tina in advance of the stay was great! The house and all system components are in a einwandfreiren , excellent condition . The house and pool are very clean . The house is situated in a very quiet new holiday resort a bit away from Lagos . It is the lowest Villa and has an unobstructed view into the valley , the view is marred only by the highway in the distance , but that does not really bother . The nearby town of Lagos and the sea are easily reached by car in around 5 minutes.

We had a fantastic time at villa with two children aged 14 and 10 between 23-30 August 2015 . The pictures on the website really do not do this villa justice. It is fantastic and very spacious and clean. The pool is huge compared to others i have seen which catches the sun for pretty much the whole day. Communication with the owner was excellent and Tina was very helpful answering questions before we arrived and it really is not that far outside Lagos set in the countryside but you do need a car if you you want to travel around. Finding the villa was easy from the directions given and takes about 50 mins from the airport. Lagos is lovely and there are lots of different beaches small and large just outside the town. The marina and street markets are good and the food is very good with reasonable prices, around £36 - £40 for family of four with drinks. There is a Lidl and Aldi close to the villa [in town] 5 mins drive and the prices compared to UK are excellent which makes self catering affordable. Most of the cafes and bars have free wifi...even the local Macdonalds (for those of you who have teenagers) There is no air con in the villa but it is fitted with electric shutters on each window door. If you use these properly then the villa really does stay cool and we did not need for air con during the whole trip. There are two outdoor eating areas and plenty of tools etc for the barbecue. A Fantastic  villa and we will be returning !!

This villa is fabulous, very clean and well maintained. It had all the facilities we required with great space indoor and out. We loved the location as it is very private, a car is essential for supermarket runs etc. Lagos is about a 5-10 minute drive as are the beaches. 
Communication with the owner was excellent and we knew she was readily available to answer any questions or queries we might have had. 
We hope to return in the future and would highly recommend it to anyone thinking of a relaxing family holiday.
