Cake and eat it

This apartment has all the advantages of a complex including private pool area, underground parking etc and literally just 200yds from the old town wall (top end of town)
the description is a true reflection of the apartment - the only thing it does not say is that it overlooks the street not the pool area. the apartment copes well with the heat (cool floors and ceiling fans) but could be sticky in the height of summer (no A/C). We really enjoyed being able to walk into the old town with lots of great coffee shops, bars & restruants. wide range of shops to browse. We cooked using local produce, fresh fish from the market were amazing. The Coastline is beautiful lots of sandy beaches from the wide expanse of maie praia to the secluded coves of Don Ana. We loved the cliff top walks from the edge of town all the way west to Salema - the water is clear and snorkling superb - like swimming in an aquarium. Lagos is a great location for all ages - not heaving with people, not tacky but chilled out - trips on boats from the marina are a must, be it to see the Grotos, the dolphins or further a field
we really enjoyed our time here and will be back for more I am sure.
