Oasis Beach Apartments

"Just returned from Oasis Beach. We enjoyed it there so much that we couldn't bear to come home, and extended our stay: We had a one bedroom apartment - B1B. Couldn't fault it. Perfect. Spacious, clean, and with absolutely everything we needed. 2 balconies, one from the kitchen with early morning sun, and one from the lounge and bedroom with sun from 11am till sunset. Sun loungers, cushions, table and chairs. Lovely kitchen fully equipped with everything we needed. Full sized fridge freezer. Good quality pots and pans, crockery and utensils. (There isn't an oven. That might've been helpful as we don't use a microwave.) It was wonderful to have a bath tub. There wasn't a plug when we arrived, but the helpful girls on reception said they would look for one that day, and if there wasn't one, they would go and buy one for us. Note that the one bedroom apartments are on the first floor. Studios are on the ground floor where the smaller balconies don't get any sun. Jessica and the other ladies on reception were so helpful. Knowledgeable about the local area and more than happy to help us arrange a day out with a driver. We were even brought a gift of local pastries and a bottle of port. Towels were changed every other day, sheets once during our 12 day stay, which was fine for us. Free safe in room, just ask at reception for the key. The location is perfect. Peaceful. Only 3-4 minutes' walk to the beach, cafes, bars and restaraunts and the centre of Luz. The swimming pool is fairly small, but clean, and wasn't busy. The lawn area around is partly shaded during the day. The beach is beautiful. Clean, and not overcrowded at this time of year. Sea was pretty cold and some quite big waves. Lots of lifeguards, which was good to see. Sun loungers cost 20 euros a day, or 14 euros after 2pm. You can take your own food and drinks to the beach, or buy from the nearby bar or kiosk. Plenty of food options in Luz, and all of very good quality, except for one. I would avoid Atlantico. The staff were very rude. My chicken was rubbery and not of good quality. Wasn't even warm. Nobody asked if it was OK. When it came to paying the bill, I wanted to pay less. That wasn't an option. The chef came out, poked my chicken with a fork, said it was fine, and then threatened to call the police unless we paid in full. Appalling. Everywhere else we ate was exceptionally good. The Forteleza has a beautiful garden overlooking the sea and has Sunday afternoon live band and jazz sessions. Great vibe. Well worth making time for. Very quiet in Luz in the evenings. Everywhere closed by 9.30 - 10pm. Need to eat by around 8.30 at the latest. 2 well stocked supermarkets within 5 minutes' walk. Baptista will deliver your groceries to the apartment gates free of charge. Just do your shopping as normal, pay at the checkout and then leave in your basket. Arrange at the till for them to deliver. Ours arrived within half an hour. The bus service into Lagos is reliable, cheap and co"
