Traditional 2-bedroom villa in the centre of Lagos:
Charming 100-Year-Old Townhouse Near Lagos Centre

Stay in a beautifully restored traditional Portuguese townhouse just 350m from Lagos centre. Tucked away in a quiet spot, this character-filled home features original wooden floors, wrought-iron beds, vintage photos, and plenty of natural light. An orange tree outside the lounge window adds a lovely touch of Algarve charm.

Relax on the private ivy-covered patio with traditional calçada flooring. Inside,on the ground floor, you’ll find a quirky (not modern) kitchen, cosy lounge with plasma TV, Portuguese cable
Wi-Fi, a breakfast room, and a bathroom with shower and WC.

Upstairs, a steep narrow staircase leads to two compact bedrooms (one double, one twin), plus a small dressing room and WC.

No air conditioning, but the thick old walls help keep things cooler in summer. No designated parking, though free public parking is usually available nearby (free car park ~ 250m).

    A spacious light older house with a patio in a great location on the edge of the old town. A few details could be improved- the shower head needs fixing, corkscrew was broken and patio furniture needs cleaning. We enjoyed our stay and it was surprisingly peaceful and quiet.

    The property was super convenient in the heart of Lagos. The property was also beautiful and exactly as the description and photos described it. Would come back again to this stay whenever visiting Lagos.

    Really nice location, easy to park right next to the house. Shame that beyond toilet paper nothing was provided (no sponges or washing up liquid, no coal for the grill, no salt, etcetc so we had to buy everything new for a one week stay, hoping what we bought remains available to the next guests so they don't have to do the same).

    We really enjoyed our stay at Casa das Andorinhas, the house is delightful, loved the decor throughout and it had everything we needed. Felt like we were locals! It is also in a great location, near to the marina, old town and the beautiful beaches. You can walk to all of the amenities. We didn’t have a car but caught the bus to Porto de Mos and Sagres which were both really nice days out. The train station is also very near and we got the train back to Faro for our flight. A taxi is needed at the other end to the airport. Only negative was the hot nights and quite a lot of noise at nights but that wouldn’t stop me staying here again, loved it!

    House has everything you need for a stay, we made extensive use of the kitchen with fresh fish from the market and the very nice patio. Its 2 mins walk to Lagos old town, 5-7 mins to 2 large supermarkets (pingo doce and lidl) Would book it again

    We fell head over heels in love with this absolutely quaint and authentic Portuguese villa. Unlike so many vaccination rentals, this one feels like a family home that people love and return to year after year.

    Unit was nice but heating was poor. No cutting board or modern coffee machine.

    We have spent 5 days at this charming & bright house. It is a bit tired but has loads of charm and everything you need for a few days’ stay. The decor is quirk and comfortable. Plenty of hot water and a functional kitchen. Location is very handy, really close to downtown and seafront, and you can walk to a few supermarkets, including Pingo Doce & Lidl. Easy free parking nearby is a huge bonus. It’s on a busy road, so you do hear some traffic and people talking on the streets, but it didn’t bother us. The agents were very reachable and helpful, and the place was spotlessly clean. I would definitely return, and recommend to friends.
