The location is SPECTACULAR, perched above what must be the prettiest, most dramtic beach in the Algarve, all but empty at this time of year, and also at a great price. A short climb down the cliff steps / paths to PARADISE. Nice swimming pool, if you need such a thing with the gorgeous beach so close. Also a short walk into Lagos centre. Also private and quiet. It may be a different story in high season. The downsides were that the fittings in our apartment were old, like out of the 70s, microwave and toaster falling apart, not enough dishes and saucepans, cups or glasses, hardly any electrical outlets, certainly none that were handy to charge phones, etc. Had to unplug the microwave to do this. Likewise, light switches and fittings were limited and confusing. I think maybe the owners had a dog in the flat, as I think we had flea bites. Also, there was zero response from the place when we tried to confirm our arrival times. Which was worrying, and when we tried to confirm the extra night we booked. However, we LOVED this place, and will be back. The flat could do with modernization and some TLC. You don't want to sell it to us, do you? :-)
