  • So after everything was organized– airport transfer, accommodation and surfing lessons all we had to do was get on a plane for 90 mins and let the good times roll. A plan that seemed flawless until 10 mins before the flight it was cancelled due to the volcano ash – fantastic!! This however did not stop us in our tracks and we proceeded to rent a van and power 22 hours through the night across France, Spain and finally Portugal. We arrived around 6 on the Sunday morning and thankfully the Vilabranca apartment reps where ready for this and left a key with security to let us in. The accommodation was clean and has pretty much everything that was needed. We next headed into town for some well deserved beverages (at 9 in the morning) – Lagos is a great place to visit, not packed with tourist but not quiet either, it is generally friendly and welcoming and the bars and restaurants are good fun.Next came the surfing, it was all well organized and the instructors are a good bunch, the Surf was almost perfect for learners. I have to say also a big thanks to Sharon for helping with the accommodation and a lot of other stuff throughout the week.Generally a very good week topped off with a 19 hour return drive back to Geneva! - Dan, Switzerland
  • We had a fantastic time, everything was great. Our surf instructor Bret was great and such good fun. he made the whole trip worthwhile. My self and my daughter niamh realy enjoyed it. The apatment we stayed in was lovely and the host at the surf school Sebastien was most welcoming. We have recommend it to our friends and hope to go back at some stage in the future. Many thanks. Mandy & Niamh - Kildare
  • What a great vacation!  We loved Lagos.  The apartment was simple but very nice, clean, friendly staff, and great location (close enough to town center for a nice walk, but not to be kept up by noise at night). The Surf School was amazing!  The beach was gorgeous, and the waves, though a bit rough, were good for surfing.  My kids were on cloud nine, and actually did better than I did on the surfboards!  We ate breakfast and lunch in the room (or packed a picnic) every day, and then dinner out in the evenings.  Honestly I can't remember names of restaurants, but everything was good, especially the seafood (and the ice cream)!  Thanks for helping us get there.  We plan to go back before we move back to the States in two years. Lori -  Florida, US

  • The apartment was great. Had everything I needed and it was nice and quiet.Peter, Estonia

  • Vilabranca was perfect, only spent a couple of days at the pool . The accommodation was spacious and clean! We met up with two other Irish girls who booked with you and had a great laugh. Everything about the surfing was amazing  and I look forward to returning  next year. Maria, Dublin

  • The surf holiday was great, apartments were very nice, we had been to Lagos before and it was good to go back, we went up to the surfing beach most days in a car, kids really enjoyed the surfing, Sebastian and his crew were great, all the airport transfers and surfing collections happened as arranged and on time , we were very pleased overall with the experience and would think about going again, maybe we will try San Sebastian next year if the kids fancy surfing again. Thanks for all your help - Colm, Celbride, Ireland

  • The accomodation was great, the staff very friendly and helpful. They helped us get taxi's, book dinner, hair dressers and pretty much anything we needed. We arrived early and left late which could have been disasterous but they let us use the pool and had a shower room and changing facility for us to get ready in before/after our flight. They really were so nice. The town itself was lovely. We generally went out at night to various bars. Our favourite place to eat was Dos Caois (?) in the Marina, considered expensive by the locals but reasonable by comparison to Dublin prices. The days were spent surfing and recovering from surfing or recovering from our nights out. However, I must reserve my greatest praise for the instructors Blake and Marcel who also drove the buses and prepared the lunches. They were always good humoured and very patient. They were just so efficient and I always felt really safe when out on the water. We met some great people at the surf school and often met up in the evenings. The night life was great and we had an absolute blast. We plan on returning to Lagos for another surf holiday - it was such an enjoyable experience. Jenny - Dublin

  • Had a fantastic time.  Lessons were excellent as was the accommodation. Joanna, Ireland

  • Loved lagos, surf was pretty good most days and overall i had a great time, apts were lovely as well. David, Meath

  • Great vacation overall.  The weather was awesome as were the accommodations and the surf lessons.  We really enjoyed the whole thing.  Chris, Germany

  • It was great. Memory of the town will be scarred by watching Man Utd defeated by Barcelona on a big-screen in the square. Accomodation was very good and the amenities at Vilabranca could not be faulted, staff friendly and helpful. I suppose at the end of the day you need to know that if I was to go again I would use "Surfholidays.com". It delivered 100% what my 15-year old was hoping for, which means Dad gets a gold star! Cheers, David, Stoke on Trent

  • We had a great time in Lagos. The accomodation was great. The rooms were really spacious. The surfing was fab and the instructors were great. Just a shame we didnt have longer to learn! Will definitely like to go back though for a longer stay. Cheers, Ramya, London

  • Surf Holiday was great. Mad some progress with the surfing - so all good. Accommodation - Vilabranca - lovely apts, clean, spacious, safe place. The pools were nice. About a 10/15 min walk - which we didnt mind at all into the town. Surf lessons were great value. and teachers good. Lagos was lovely. The beach the lessons were on was lovely with little cafe. water was cold for first 5 mins then lovely.. and on most days ideal for us beginners. LOADS of restaurants & good food & wine for great prices. Plenty of bars to choose from too. Didnt go to the nightclub. All in all, a great week - and i'd go back in October for sure! thanks Deborah, Ireland

  • We had a fantastic holiday. the accomodation was even better than we expected. Lagos was lovely and we were very lucky with the weather. We went to a few really nice restaurants and pubs, the best were : As Asinhas (trad Portugese, great steak), Meu Limao (Tapas) and pubs (3 monkeys and The Jam were the best). Sebastien and the other surf instructors were really great, really looked after us. And we actually managed to surf properly for the first time! Thanks a million. Sarah, Ireland

  • We had a ball, the surf crowd were great Sebastian and Marcel and the group. No major injuries was a bonus apart from pride after a major nite on the town! Lagos is beautiful, I wil defo be recommending it to anyone looking for a holiday so Il be sending more parties onto u for sure! Thanks for everything, it was really well organised and the apartments were so nice, absolutely no complaints only compliments! Many Thanks Again! Elaine and the girls, Clare

  • We had a great holiday apartments were excellent, top class and very friendly and helpful in the bar and reception especially Miguel and Pedro in the bar. We all loved the surfing, all the instructors were great. All in all a great surf holiday for teenagers and an active family. We also did a sea canoeing trip from Lagos to Pied a Pont which was awesome and the land sailing on the road to Sagres was deadly. Also the coastal walks are spectacular and I would have loved to do some mountain biking but was wrecked after the surfing. This place is heaven for the outdoor active type --- cant wait to go back. Maire, Waterford

  • We really enjoyed our surf break in lagos, the accomodation villabranca was lovely and sebastian and his team where great,we would recommend this to any of our friends. Thanks again Susan and Campbell, Edinburgh

  • Its a nice little town, not too built up, cobble streets with old buildings. Lots of little bars scattered around, it takes a few days to figure it out but you get there. Food and drink was very reasonably priced, best value I've seen in a while. The accommodation is about a 10 min walk down hill to the town or 4 euro in a taxi. Didn't do much walking home! Apartments where nice, well kitted out, kitchen, tv, etc. Pool was clean and the reception was open till 12 and very helpful.  Surfing was great, cant say enough about them. If you missed a day or wanted a day off in the middle you could do that. Its a nice beach with a small cafe. Ended going out a couple of times with the instructors (your female customers might be happy to hear!!). Standing and turning by the end of the week so we where happy with that. We ended up getting the train from Faro to Lagos €6.15, bargain! There also a short bus from airport to train station €2. Great option but a reduced service on Sundays. All in all we had a good aul surf holiday. Cheers, Jonathan

  • A wonderfully equipped apartment in a very smart and secure complex – Sarah, Dublin

  • Thanks again for recommending Portugal. It was an amazing surf holiday, we loved the surf school, tell them thanks for driving us everywhere! Beckie, London

  • Although I only stayed for 4 days it was well worth it. Blistering Sunshine, great sunburn haha and great waves. I'll be back - Steve, Cork

  • The apartments were a short stroll into the main town - would definitely recommend it if you are looking to party as the place was rocking everynight. Katie, Avril & Nicky - UK

  • Yeah I would definitely recommend this place - the apartments are only a few years old and very spacious - the swimming pools are great for a quick wake up in the morning or to lounge about  if taking a day off from the surf!!! Robyn, Hong Kong

  • A great base for surfing the area - if the town's beach isnt working head straight for Sagres area - only 25 minutes in the car, and you have a great choice - Steve, Wales

  • Homens, Bem passado - muchas obrigado para todas - had a brill time - Julie, Dublin

  • Apartments were great, got back from surf to chill by the pool for a few -  night life in town never stopped. Check out the Nah Nah Bah for great food and music - Paul, Australia
