About this property
Cozy Apartment with Stunning Sea Views, One Minute Walk from the Beach
This is our lovely 1-bedroom apartment in the beautiful Portuguese village of Praia da Luz. The building, a cute two-story condominium, is located in a beautiful garden with flowers and palm trees. The view from the apartment, which is on the first floor, is breath taking - overlooking the beach with the majestic Rocha Negra at the east end. The sandy beach is only a short walk away, and so are all of Luz's tasty restaurants. Whether you need a pharmacy, grocery store, bus stop or post office – everything is reachable within a few minutes. Not to miss the fabulous ice cream parlour next to the Fortaleza. Still you will find the area around to the apartment to be quiet and peaceful. It's the perfect spot for a holiday.
The apartment has one bedroom with a double bed, a bathroom, a kitchen with a pass-through bar and a lounge with access to the south facing balcony. Free internet is available through a wifi hotspot, and there are public parking spots both in front and the back of the house.
The kitchen and bathroom have been fully renovated in winter 21/22, including plumbing and electricity. The kitchen combines traditional Portuguese style with modern comfort: a custom built kitchen unit with Lagoa granite countertop, traditional tiles, brand new energy-efficient dishwasher and an induction stove. The new bathroom, which features a walk-in rain shower, has gorgeous hand-made Portuguese tiles on both the floor and the walls.
You will find a modern washer/drier and a brand new air conditioning at your convenience, and we have replaced all windows with double glassed quality windows in 2019. Please note that there is no TV and microwave in the apartment, and that the coffee machine is an Italian style coffee brewer.

Balcony with view of beach. A great little community with private beach, resturants, and grocery stores. Everything you need for a relaxing vacation in one location.
Comfortable, well-provisioned flat with an amazing view of the beach and cliffs in Luz. The bus stop, two grocery stores, the post office, restaurants and a beautiful clean beach are literally a few minutes walk away. We really enjoyed ourselves!
Comfortable, well equipped apartment in a central but quiet location close to all amenities. Beautiful view from the apartment. A very enjoyable holiday rial round.
Clean, Cozy and fully equipped Appartement within 5 minutes walk to Beach and Restaurants. Nice balcony for your private breakfast in the morning to watch the rising sun. Cleaning service once a week. I can highly recommend it.
Nice accomodation with direct view on the beach from the balcony. Extensive kitchen equipment. Bathroom a bit small, but functional. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay in this holiday flat.

Disliked: Communication
Confortable flat, nice view
Flat is almost perfect. Everything you need is already in and probably more . Stuning view.
We would stay again. Communications were great for checking in and answering any questions. Location is ideal if you want to be close to the beach but far enough away to have some quiet. The private balcony is stunning. Well equipped very clean. Highly recommend.
The apartment is beautifully laid out, all the required amenities are there like the umbrella for shade on the patio with a breathtaking view. Quieter area from the main drag but 5 minutes walk to everything. Highly recommend Real Pizza and Curry, Boaty’s for tapas, Bosman’s The Dolphin for a special dinner. The sunset is worth the 5 min walk to the outlook by the wall. Bring good tips for the talented buskers. The host was great to work with!
Cute well-equiped apartment with the perfect sea-view
I rarely write a review about my vacation accommodations, but this one deserves it. The apartment is super cute furnished and has everything you could need! Even umbrellas for the beach were there and the kitchen had great equipment. Especially great is the proximity to the beach, just wonderful. Also Luz is a totally nice and quiet place with some restaurants which are all quite close. Here you can spend a great vacation and relax. I can only recommend to book this apartment, we enjoyed it very much.
Nice appartment, well equipes and beautifull view of the beach.
Very Nice appartment. On the first Floor, which givres a nice view to the see from the balcony. Also well equiped, great kitchen, airco. The only attention point is the cautch which is also a bed. This lies ok but is not comfortabel to sit, sorry.
The place is great and Ralf is very helpful and easy to deal with. Would definitely recommend staying here

THE VIEW WAS BEAUTIFUL, EASY ACCESS TO THE BEACH
LOTS OF GOOD RESTAURANTS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE
We loved this apartment in Luz. It's such a great spot. It's so close to the beach. And the view is AMAZING! The apartment had all necessary mod cons including beach towels/umbrellas etc. It was sparkling clean, a/c, good wifi, parking, close to many restaurants/shops & communication with Ralf was great. We had such a great holiday & will definitely return!

Really magnificent
The appartment is beautiful and very well located. Luz is a small city with a lot of nice restaurants and is a perfect spot to relax. Furthermore, it is the perfect hub to check out the coast of portugal.
The balcony in this appartment is where we spent almost every sunny breakfast and late night drink. You have a beautiful view over the beach and the mountains as seen in the picture.
We stayed 9 days and will come again for sure!
Spectacular location! The apartment was much larger than expected and has clearly recently been updated. Everything that we could have possibly needed was provided and easily located. The view of the beach was amazing! It was so great to be able to walk to all the many restaurants available in Luz. Having the outside spigot to wash off sand from the beach was so lovely!
Really amazing rental that if you have the chance to book, you definitely should. We definitely plan to stay there again when we return on our next visit with family.
Tremendous location; close to beach, the promenade (with restaurants), grocery stores, etc. The view from the balcony was outstanding. The apartment was small but plenty of room for two people. The only negative was with the convection oven/stove top. The appliance itself didn’t provide any indication how to use it and no hard copy instructions were provided either. Fortunately we did not intend to do much cooking, otherwise it would have been an issue.

Comfortable, Clean, Ideally Located One Bedroom Apartment with Wonderful Sea View
Spent a wonderful trouble-free week in this very comfortable apartment located close to Luz Beach with all local amenities (2 supermarkets, several restaurants etc.) within a few minutes walking distance. Bus stop for Lagos/Burgau 1 minute away. Car parking no problem.
Kitchen well stocked with pots, cutlery & glasses etc.. Cooking facilities fairly limited (no micro-wave oven) but restaurants/cafes at reasonable prices to suit virtually every taste available close by even in February.
Excellent Wi-Fi reception but no TV (but who goes to Luz to watch TV ? ). Plenty places to visit with lots of local walks including one to Porto de Mos via the cliff-top obelisk overlooking Luz.
If revisiting Luz or its environs would certainly consider staying again at this cosy apartment . The sea view alone is reason enough for doing so!
