Villa Doris Suites

Villa Doris Suites

10/10 Excellent
"This property is in one of the best locations in Algarve. You cannot beat the view and access to the Praia de Ana for this price. The large condo is modern, comfortable and clean with a full kitchen. The tub and shower in our unit required a large step up with no hand rails. Please call and ask if there is a unit with accommodations if you need them. It was relaxing having meals on our balcony overlooking the cliffs. The entrance to the boardwalk along the cliffs is across the street. The entrance to the beach is a half block away. There are a lot of stairs going up and down, but everything is constructed well. If you are disabled, I think you can access the upper boardwalk at other locations that appear not to have stairs. If disabled, you will not be able to access the beach as there is no elevator, but you can enjoy the view from the overlook right by the condo or take a boat ride from downtown Lagos to see the beautiful rock formations up close. There are a few restaurants and a convenience store next to the condo. There are grocery stores and other restaurants within 10 minutes. You are able to walk places, as well, but the streets are narrow. The condo has a basement parking garage with an elevator. Rent a short, small car or suv because the corners and spaces are very tight. There is very limited parking on the street. Vanessa and Anna at the front desk are amazingly helpful and friendly. We enjoyed every moment of our stay and didn't want to leave! "
