The neighborhood serves up fresh seafood at beachfront restaurants where you can watch the sunset paint the cliffs. Modern holiday apartments and villas with sea views make up most accommodations, though public transport is limited so having a car is smart. Beach season brings the area to life, but even then, you'll find plenty of quiet spots along the coastal paths.
Ameijeira gives you the best of both worlds in Lagos—calm residential streets just a short stroll from stunning beaches.

Someone put a lot of thought and planning into their guest’s comfort. There were community tables on each floor with wet wipes, sunscreen, lotion -anything you might need and have forgotten. Room fridges had complimentary beer and water.
While you can’t walk from the location into town, it’s a short taxi/Uber ride. If you exit your room from back of property, Aldi’s is a few steps away which was very convenient. Excellent breakfast

What a wonderful experience. An excellent staff (Vítor, Beatrix, Francisco in particular - but all were excellent and friendly) They all went out of their way to make us feel welcome - Vítor even got in the car with my husband to show us where the municipal parking was and he always greeted us by name when we came in and out. The location was excellent, right in the heart of town and yet the room was quiet - never heard any noise. And breakfast every morning was delicious. We tried something...

We stayed a quick 3 days and had a blast. Everyone was super friendly and inviting, breakfast was awesome, quick walk to the beach and a number of great restaurants, plus we were super excited for one of the better small hotel gyms we've been in - if your hotel has barbells and weights over 20kg, they're doing something right :)
We'll certainly be recommending Lagos Atlantic to others and will hopefully be back in the future for more than just a few days!

The building has a lot of charm. Plants, flowers and classic Portuguese interior design. It feels you are in a farmhouse, not in a hotel. The breakfast was great with so many options. The attic room where we stayed was so spacious, with a huge bathroom and a private terrace. I'd point out that they gave us combined twin beds and not a queen/king bad, which wasn't ideal. Also, the listing mention that they have three pools which is not true. There is only one pool available. The other images are...

We stayed here as a family of four (kids 17 & 18). At first it was a little hard to find our apartment without a reception area, but once we did we were very happy with the accommodations.
