We stayed here for a month, and it looks like they’ve improved the bed—it was comfortable, clean, and odor-free. The apartment was clean overall and had everything needed for a long stay. It’s in a quiet area at the top of a cliff, with the Ascensor conveniently right outside the door for easy access. We did run into a small ant infestation early on due to leftover rotten food in the pantry, but the landlord eventually helped by dropping off spray. When we moved out, we were required to do a deep clean, though they offered a €50 cleaning service if preferred. There’s no washer onsite, but a nearby laundromat offers washes starting at €5. Overall, it was mostly a positive experience.
Neighborhood
Quaint and quiet, tucked away from the action but a short tram ride to get to it. Quick 5-10 min stroll to North beach to see the waves.

My husband and I stayed here for 3 weeks and loved the location. Many cafes, restaurants and attractions a short walk away. The apartment was spotless and seemed as if it had been recently renovated. The WiFi strength was very fast for remote work. Carlos was quick to respond if we needed anything. The only downside was the mold smell (pillows, mattress, couch) which I’m sure the owner will resolve after our feedback. Otherwise, this place is a gem and great value.
Neighborhood
Quaint old town feel with quick access to restaurants and shops. Even though this is a tourist area we didn’t have any issues with noise in peak season.

The flat if really nice and spacious. It’s well equipped, has all kitchen amenities, modern TV and so on. It’s very close to the city center and the beach. It also had a parking spot in the garage, but we mostly used the parking on the street as it was never crowded (also a plus). It does get a bit cold during winter but there were two electric heaters for us to use.
However, while the flat was nice, we can’t say the same about the owners. We rented the place for 5 months with a cat, after an initial agreement in Flatio messages that we can stay with the cat if we pay 100€ more per month to cover any extra cleaning after our stay. We kept the apartment very clean, with monthly control visits so that the owners make sure that nothing was destroyed. At the end of the stay, the owners demanded that we pay extra for washing the duvets, pillows, the sofa, the windows, the balcony etc. (or that we do it ourselves which was impossible while still staying at the apartment) - once we mentioned that this should be covered from the extra 500€ which we payed throughout the stay, the owners pretended that they don’t know what we’re talking about and still demanded that we cover the additional cleaning. It was also very problematic to get in touch with them because the owners use a company to manage the flat so everything had to be passed through that company.
Summary: the flat and the management company are nice but beware of the owners, cause the only thing that we experienced is that they were greedy and were just looking to get extra money. We payed because we didn’t want to have any trouble but it shouldn’t look like that.

We had a wonderful stay at the apartment in Lagos. The location was fantastic – just a short walk from the harbor, the beach and the city centre. The apartment was well-equipped, which made our stay very comfortable. We especially loved the spacious big balcony.
The host was very friendly and helpful, making communication easy and pleasant.
Overall, our stay was very positive, and we would recommend this apartment.

We had a very nice stay in Lagos factory green in october.
The apartment was excactly as shown in pictures. Very spacious and modern. The pool area was also very comfortable and sheltered.
The apartment is very suitable for remote working. The neighborhood is quiet, and the internet connection was good.
We recommend to read the house rules carefully. Especially the part about the key barrel ;)
Carlos was very quick to respond to any queries. Thank you for a pleasant stay!

Very quiet, but Marina is close by. Not too far from central either (~20min walk).

The lighthouse "Forte de São Miguel Arcanjo" is a 10-minute walk away. Across the street is a grocery store "Hortícolas Boleixa" with delicious fresh vegetables. There is a Lavandaria Self-Service nearby.

The flat is advertised to be equipped for 4 people, but it's truly equipped only for a couple. We booked this flat with my friend after reading it was equipped for 4 people and that it has an office that can be used as a single room, only to find out the flat is only equipped for a couple. We are friends, so we needed the separate bed and the separate room. Result: One of us had to sleep in a sofa for weeks (it's a standard sofa, not a sofa bed). The mat in the office is not suitable to sleep. When we asked for the additional set of bedsheets (for the sofa) we were asked to pay additional EUR 50. After a few exchanges of messages with Flatio it was clear this fee wasn't applicable but then we were asked (in an unfortunate tone) to leave the bedsheets washed and ironed on the day of our checkup (or pay EUR50). We left the flat clean and the bedsheets washed as demanded but it added some stress and unpleasant experiences to our visit.

Tasca da Lota, a cheap and cheerful but very delish grilled fish restaurant not too far. The restaurants at the marina are ok but a bit overpriced and very touristy. There's a Pingo Doce near by, but the InterMarche in town has a much, much better selection of goods and produce - for me it was worth a few extra minutes to shop there. The concierge at the InterMarche can arrange a taxi for you. Just nearby the InterMarche is a really great churrasco restaurant Restaurante Figueiras - excellent churrasco chicken, bacalao na bras and portuguese stews - which you can take away as well.

Just behind the marina, close to marina restaurants and a convenient pingo. Just across the bridge from old town. Closer to the long beach then the cliffs, but all in walking/cycling distance, although hiring a car would be recommended if you don’t like too much time and exercise spent on your transport,

We stayed in the apartment for 2 weeks. It’s very well located — just about 20 minutes on foot to the Old Town and the Meia Praia beach, about 5 minutes to a great supermarket (Pingo Doce). The apartment is really spacious and comfortable and very well isolated from the outside sounds. We enjoyed the bedroom — it’s silent at night and the bed is big and comfy. The terrace gets some sunshine in the morning and then shadow in the afternoon which is great for eating outdoor. The kitchen was generally well-equipped though there were a few items missing for comfortable cooking in our opinion. The apartment was quite cold at the beginning of our stay (April) — it’s completely normal for Portuguese flats to not have central heating, just make sure to bring some warm socks and sweaters (you can also use a small electric heater though it’s impossible for it to warm the spacious living room so there’s not much point using it there). The apartment was generally very clean when we arrived — except for the terrace and the furniture there — we had to clean them ourselves before using. All in all it’s a great flat to stay in Lagos, would definitely come back! (smiley) Thank you, Carlos!

This apartment was a really wonderful place. It’s very close to the marina and the town center, it has every single thing you could want or need, and it’s a very short walk to a large grocery store for anything else.
It has fast internet, a large smart TV, allocated parking and an incredible balcony with a comfortable sofas and a large dining area. Everything I needed for a month in Portugal!
