"We stayed in a bungalow at this campsite and it was great! It was quite hot during the day without aircon or a fan, but thankfully it cooled down quite a lot in the evenings so having a window open was fine. Seems like the bungalows have 2 sun loungers on each shaded balcony so having an afternoon snooze was also possible. There was a shop onsite which is very convenient.

"This place is just spectacular. Firstly Rui is the kindest and most hardworking person I ever met. Our room wasn’t ready as we arrived early - he offered for us to relax by the pool while it was being cleaned. When we got to our room - it was spotless. The property is not in Lagos- it’s in a village called Luz. It quite cute with the best Chinese restaurant nearby and a fantastic restaurant called Alloro. Great value for quality food.i do feel it would be helpful to have a car. The room has a fridge and an air conditioner that’s works well and is quiet. I had a balcony with a view of the pool. You won’t be disappointed."

The iconic Igreja da Nossa Senhora da Luz church stands prominently, marking the historic core.
