Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

You’ll find this studio apartment conveniently located a short stroll from Lagos’ old town and just footsteps from Dona Ana Beach. Days here begin with a wander through the charming cobbled streets, past Baroque churches to a local cafe for a breakfast of pastries and coffee. When the temperature starts to rise, skip over to the seaside for a swim in the impossibly clear water and a sunbathing session on the soft sands. Back at your pad, the breezy living space with a squashy leather sofa invites you to kick back and relax. There’s a fully-equipped kitchenette with everything you’ll need for rustling up traditional dishes and a private terrace for a tipple or two at dusk. Just the other side of the wall, you’ll find a communal pool – the tonic to those long, hot Algarve afternoons.

About Algarve

With more than 300 days of sunshine per year and over 100 beaches dotted along its coastline, the Algarve is one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations. The party scene is alive and kicking around the capital, Faro, Albufeira, and Praia da Rocha should you want it, but there’s so much more to this sun-baked corner of Portugal than the high-rise resorts of the coast’s centre.
