Casa da Alegria 24 - Hidden Gem inside the city walls of Lagos

## Space

This lovely townhouse is located just inside the city walls of Lagos along a small and quiet street but literally around the corner from lots of shops, bars and restaurants. It has a patio with BBQ located on the ground floor that's perfect for morning coffee's as well as those summer night dinners.

When entering the house, you enter directly into the living room with big sofa and TV. The queen bedroom and a separate bathroom are located behind the living room (away from the street). Also located on the ground floor is the spacious kitchen with dining table and access to the patio with outdoor dining table.

On the first floor, the other two twin bedrooms can be found, as well as a second bathroom and access to the roof terrace from the hallway.

## Access

The house is all yours during your stay.

★ Modern and comfortable at central location
★ Fully equipped kitchen
★ Patio and roof terrace
★ Wifi and Smart TV
★ Linen and towels are provided

➤ We usually welcome families, because the property is in a quiet residential street, and we have huge respect for our neighbours.
➤ Parties and other disturbances are not accepted. Please get in touch with us before booking if you’re unsure if you fit this profile, so we can see whether this accommodation fits your travel plans.

## Interaction

This home is in the hands of Rental Valley, a property management team that works hard to make sure your stay is smooth and comfortable! We are available should you have any questions or requests during your stay.

From one week before arrival, we’ll send you our rental guide. This holds all useful information to help you arrive safely and much more. So please read it carefully before your arrival and let us know if you need anything or have any questions.

## Neighborhood

This townhouse is located inside the walls of the old city of Lagos so you will have many shops, restaurants and bars just around the corner! The street itself is a quiet residential street with very little motorised traffic as only a handful of residents are allowed to park here. Guests can easily park at several free parking areas just outside the city wall, 5 minutes walking from the house.

The nearest beach by foot is Batata beach, located next to the town center. Meia Praia is located just behind the marina, about 20 minutes by foot, but easily accessible by car, taxi and tourist train as well, just like the famous beaches/cliff areas of Praia Dona Ana, Ponte de Piedade and Praia de Porto de Mos.

Lagos is the perfect holiday destination with a lively historical centre full of shops, (super)markets, a marina, bars and restaurants. It is known for its breathtaking cliffs, and we highly recommend a boat, kayak or SUP tour to see them from the water. The town has a picturesque historical centre, great food and friendly people. It is located on the coast. You can enjoy several watersports activities such as surfing and sailing. There are many activities for all ages and preferences in this area.

## Transit

You can reach Lagos in about one hour by car from Faro Airport, and car rental is available in the airport's parking lot. By train, it will take about 2,5 to 3 hours.

Lagos has a train station (for travel towards Faro, Lisbon and Porto) and a bus station (for buses towards the west-side of the south coast), but do note that buses and trains only go a few times per day. You can easily get around without a car, and there are plenty of taxis and Ubers available, but if you want to explore the larger Algarve area, a (rental) car is recommended.

## Notes

➤ No pets allowed
➤ Check-in time: 16:00-21:00 (late arrival possible in consultation)
➤ Check-out time: before 10am

Property was exactly as listed and described. We loved the location and the lock box keys meant that we could head out in different directions without locking anyone out. So many nearby restaurants and shops. Generous amount of space for 6 adults.

Quiet location but minuets from town,

The property was very clean and comfortable. Very short walk from the town however, street quiet. No meeting with agents as we were given the key safe number. Would recommend this property.

Central location Lagos

Location was optimal for our stay. We were able to walk to all parts of old town and beaches. A/C was lovely. Great for 2 families, with the exception of a non working shower in one of the bathrooms. This meant all 6 people were having to takes turns in the one shower which was frustrating. We contacted the property manager but the issue was not resolved during our stay. Upon check out we alerted the cleaning staff the shower was not operable and they indicated this is an ongoing problem.
