This apartment and it’s location ( a complex of just nine apartments) meets all of our needs. Just over the road from the beach and two bars/restaurants as well as bus & train stops, with another restaurant next door and golf nearby for those that want it. The corner apartment is very clean, comfortable and ideally laid out with the pool literally outside the patio doors. For those who choose not to drive then a bus drops you at the supermarket (although it is a two mile walk back) and there is a ‘local’ small supermarket just over the road. Underground garage is available for a car with an accessible storage room where beach/pool equipment can be borrowed. All in all a great venue for a relaxing break - you will not be disappointed.

Vista Baia was the perfect holiday accomodation for us. The apartment was clean, well maintained and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The pool area was an oasis of calm during our time there (end of June - to mid July) and was also well maintained. In fact, whenever we were at the apartment, it was peaceful. We highly recommend it. Lagos is about 2.5 - 3 miles away and was easy to get to by car. There is also a local bus service running every hour all day, every day and costs E1.20 each way. The stop is across the road by the train station. A road train starts about 500 yards along the road and also runes every hour with a break for lunch. The trip takes 1 hour and costs E3.50. It was our first time in Portugal and we really enjoyed it.

We booked the apartment on the recommendation of my sister. From the initial email with Shaun he bent over backwards to help. The apartment was spacious clean and tidy with everything you need for the stay. The ground floor apartment is brilliant 5 steps away from the pool good shade for the hot weather. The beach was 5 minutes walk away lovely sandy beach. Lagos about 1 1/2 mile walk. There is a free carpark about 1/4 mile away from the marina. Overall lovely clean apartment and would book again thank you Shaun.

Vista Baia is situated in a lovely position a stones throw from the beach of Meia Praia. The apartment is great, indoors is well equipped and very comfortable but it is the outdoor space that makes it special-a huge patio with the most comfortable chairs and sun loungers and only a couple of steps from a great pool.We didn't have great weather but thoroughly enjoyed our week.
