Spacious Villa
By Naomi Lamb on 03-Jul-2026Huge villa! We were a group of 9 but the villa could sleep 12. Lots bathrooms, all clean and modern. Large well equipped kitchen and outdoor BBQ. The kids had hours of fun playing in the large pool while we relaxed on the terrace. The little village was 5 mins drive from Lagos which offers everything you need for a great holiday. We eat twice in the village restaurant which serves traditional Portuguese food at great prices! Would definitely stay here again.
A wonderful stay – we are already planning our return!
By Joanna Byrne on 19-Jun-2026We had a wonderful stay as a family/group and cannot recommend this villa highly enough. Everyone in the group agreed that the property is even better than the pictures! It is incredibly clean, modern, bright, and airy. The kitchen was exceptionally well-equipped with everything we could possibly need, and the pool and poolside area were a massive highlight where we spent a lot of our time. With a larger group, space can sometimes be an issue, but this villa offered ample space for everyone to relax, and having a dedicated bathroom for each room was a major bonus. The villa is situated slightly out of town, which we loved because it felt incredibly peaceful and very safe. Getting around was was super easy and surprisingly cheap to get an Uber into town or straight to the beach. Communication with Simon leading up to our trip was excellent—friendly yet highly professional. On arrival, we were greeted by Sam, who made sure we settled in perfectly. She is so warm and professional, and she answered all of our questions with ease and very efficiently. A special thanks to her for arranging an early check-in for us, which we really appreciated! We had an absolutely fantastic holiday and are already talking about rebooking for our next trip. Highly recommended!
Amazing Villa
By Karen Harper on 17-May-2026Stayed for 8 nights in May. Villas fabulous. Very spacious villa with high quality fixtures and furnishings. I have never stayed in a villa that was so well equipped. We did quite a bit of cooking whilst there and there was every kind of utensil you could ever need. Great size pool which was a little chilly in May but very refreshing. Simon and Sam were great with communication. Uber and Bolt taxis €5 to Lagos Would highly recommend

Hi Karen, thank you so much for your review and taking such great care of the villa, we would love to host you again and wish you the very best.
A great family villa
By Emily on 09-Aug-2025We had a great holiday in this villa. The space is great for young families, the pool, outside area and living space work really well and huge space. Sam met us on first day with a warm welcome. We had a few issues with showers that Sam sorted straight away. All the communication leading up to the holiday was well managed. We have been to the resort Lagos many times, this villa does require a car or uber to get into town, but plenty of space for parking or Ubers easily accessible. Great restaurant at the bottom of the hill.

Fantastic luxurious villa
By Byrne Family on 24-Aug-2025We had a fabulous week long stay in Villa da luz, everything we needed was there with lots of space for our group to enjoy - table tennis, pool, gym. The process of booking /payment was managed efficiently by Simon, as was any response to questions we had on the lead up to our stay, so easy to deal with. Samantha was very responsive and friendly. The restaurants close to the villa (2 min walk) were very good and excellent value.. We went into Lagos most days too, which was just a 4 minute uber ride from the villa. Would highly recommend a stay here and we look forward to returning back soon.

Fantastic place to stay
By Ian kennedy on 01-Aug-2025This was a great place to stay and we honestly couldn't find fault with anything other than to perhaps suggest they leave a few more mugs in the cupboards!! The villa is enormous with plenty of space and fantastic clean modern decor. The pool (and all the pool toys left there) was a real bonus being both large enough for swimming but also having shallow and deeper ends for young and older children alike. Lovely quiet location with a 2 minute walk down to a small cafe and bar and another two minutes to another cafe and small shop. We took ubers into Lagos each day that cost around 5 - 6 euros on average and only 8-10 minutes to get there. The owners communication was perfect and the property management owner, Samantha, came round just to make sure everything was fine and we ended up chatting about all sorts for 45 minutes - very friendly and very helpful! Great place in a great location !
