About

Our apartment is family owned and was completed and furnished in April 2007. It is owned by my brother who runs his own mortgage advice company, my partner who is a Matron in the NHS and myself,, saving people money every day with Utility Warehouse. We bought the apartment - our first in tthe overseas property market - before it was completed and it gives us everything we want; fantastic views of the marina, lots of space and its proximity to great restaurants, the beach and the beautiful old town. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

We stayed at the apartment for 5+ weeks over January / February 2022 and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The apartment is clean, functional and is in an ideal spot on the Marina - quieter, but within striking distance of the restaurants and marinas and onwards into town. Highly recommended!

Our first time in Portugal, just returned from 10 nights in the apartment, it’s very spacious and clean. The view is beautiful, location is perfect, for access to beachfront, swimming pool, local supermarket, bars, restaurants/night life with no hassle and security regularly patrolling. Having a washing machine meant was little to do on return. Internet and tv package is fab if you need. Great communication with the owner and those managing. I will definitely recommend to others and hope to return in the future.

We have just come back from another fantastic trip to Lagos. As long term visitors to the area, the location of the apartment was perfect; close to the Marina and all the facilities it has to offer, ditto beach and town. The apartment was very clean, well kitted out, with perfect views. The entertainment package and WiFi were excellent; especially for our teenage boys. There were two things that I felt could be improved on. Firstly, the showers. In the main bathroom; there was a shower cubicle but only hand held shower head (really should have been affixed to the wall) and also in the en-suite, while the shower head was fixed to the wall; the water was so powerful (a plus!), that it jumped off the wall and everywhere got soaked. Small changes can fix these. And if I'm being really picky, the table on the balcony was quite rusted - probably needs an upgrade. However, would certainly stay there again and equally would recommend it. Thank you!

Hi Nicola, Many thanks for your extremely well constructed, very favourable and informative review which is really appreciated. I take your points regarding the en-suite shower, which is indeed very powerful and will look to rearrange the wall fitting accordingly. I will also be replacing the balcony table at the end of this year's bookings as well; each year I look at what needs replacing and updating. I really hope you and your family visit the apartment again in the near future and look forward to hearing from you. Best regards and thanks again for your review, Stuart (owner).

The apartment and area is very nice with some lovely areas to eat along the promenade. The old town is only a 10 minute walk and is lively at night. Very family and couple orientated area which is nice. Would recommend this apartment in Lagos mariner.

Although we had a lovely stay at Logos Marina. I did feel the apartment was not as clean as it should have been. There were only the very basic supplies of towels and tea towels. So unless you went out and bought some those that were supplied were not suitable. Generally the apartment meet our needs except for the bathroom facilities. The shower in the en-suite was not fit for purpose, when you turned it on it went everywhere ... except on the person that wanted a shower. The shower in the other bathroom was completely useless, unless you were a small child. the shower head is fixed to the wall about 3 foot from the floor and it was one of those that you had to hold, Not sure how you can wash yourself !! That's if you can get into the shower cubicle, which is so small even a small child would struggle. So the only thing left to do was to use the bath, which is fine if you are not dis-abled and able to get into a bath. Neither of us could get in the bath. The patio doors on to the balcony should have a notice somewhere saying that people should not close the doors because they lock and there is no way of opening them. This happened to us, we closed the doors to keep the heat in the apartment and they locked with our phone and any telephone numbers inside !! You can imagine our horror being locked out on the second floor. Thankfully one of the other patio doors was broken and did'nt lock so we managed to get back into the apartment that way.

Dear Keith, Thank you for your review which I really appreciate as only by receiving feedback, can I aim to improve the service our customers, like you, receive. I am really disappointed that the apartment wasn't as clean as expected and I would really appreciate if you could let me have any specific areas that you were unhappy with. I will take up with our management team all the points you've raised and any further information you forward. With regards to the bathrooms, I am a little unsure as to why you've had any issues. In the en-suite which I've used many times, I've never had an issue with turning on the shower and standing in the bath and taking a shower as normal. Also, in the shower room, the shower head is hand-held and the actual cubicle is a standard size. A friend of mine who is six feet two and weighs a hefty seventeen stones plus, has used it many times without issue. Again, please further any information you may think useful. Thank you for your comments regarding the patio doors and I will work with our management team to address this issue. Regarding the towels, you should have received a bath towel and hand towel each and I understand there were enough towels for 4 guests which should be ample for a weeks stay. I bought new towels just last year so they should be of a good standard but again I will check this. The tea towels are replaced every year and there are plenty on site and I would ask that if this is ever an issue for you again, please just ring the management team and they will happily supply more. I really do appreciate your comments and hopefully, you can let me have some specific examples as requested. May I also take this opportunity to thank you for your custom and hopefully, I can be of service again. Kind regards, Stuart.

on the plus side: The location is superb - lovely views, large veranda, and full sun in the morning Right on top of numerous bars and restaurants Spotlessly clean and the meet and greet was excellent on the down side: Apartment furnishings are basic and functional (but don't expect any luxury or home comforts) The TV is minute and there is no CD player The Bathrooms do not have windows

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely apartment which was light, clean and spacious and had everything you need for a family holiday. Fantastic location with beautiful views overlooking the Marina and a supermarket literally around the corner! It's just a few minutes walk to the beautiful sandy beach and a few minutes walk over a bridge into the town centre which has a great atmosphere and loads of really nice restaurants and shops. Plenty of activities available, we did kayaking, surfing and dolphin watching! Owner was also really helpful when booking.

We have stayed at this apartment on a previous visit to Lagos. The only problem we had was that the television had no picture. I bought a new aerial lead from a local shop which solved the problem. Otherwise everything was fine and I would visit again in the future. Bob Wilde.

Spacious, modern appartment with large balcony and excellent view of the marina. Minor quibbles: we cooked for ourselves every day. There were only two saucepans, and the frying pan had lost most of its non stick coating. Would have been nice to have wifi. But, as I say, minor quibbles. Its a lovely appartment and we had a great holiday.
