Carlos House

Please book only after reading this SPECIAL NOTE: we are a quiet guesthouse, meant for people who want to chill, never a Party place. We have few rooms designed for friends or couples or even families that would like to enjoy nice summer days staying in a good low cost acomodation in a central location but in a non noisy street. A good night's sleep in a relaxed and serene environment is priceless. That is what you will get at Carlos House.

Carlos House has nice fresh rooms, real clean and cosy, most with natural ambiance. We have small lockers in the rooms.
Kitchen is available for guests use. You can enjoy our large terrace (with BBQ) with beach, sea and town views.

And for our guests, free broadband Internet access and Wi-Fi. Payment is in cash at the arrival.

This is a small place. Reception is not open 24 hours a day, although the main check-in time is between 2 PM and 9 PM. We kindly ask you to book ahead and inform us on correct arrival time, so we can open the door and provide you a welcoming check-in including town information. As an alternative, come to our close property, Sunny C. Hostel, and the staff will take you here to check you in.

Carlos House is located in Lagos downtown in a quiet place, but within walking distance from beaches, sea and all facilities, including restaurants.

Our coast has great quality of air and seawater hard to find elsewhere in Western Europe. Lagos has also an interesting historical heritage.

Directions

Coming from Faro or Lisbon you can take either a bus or a train. They run several times a day, being even more frequent on the summer and on weekdays. Coming from the north of Portugal, you'll go to Lisbon first and then directly to Lagos.

Coming from Spain: you can go to Seville and take a direct bus to Lagos. Sometimes you may get a bad info in Spain about this. Some people don't realise there is a direct bus and they will inform on alternatives which are time consuming and not necessary since you can take the bus in Seville (Plaza de Armas station). The buses to Lagos run twice a day on winter time. In summer, normally, there are even more everyday.

Flying to Faro Airport: you can take a taxi or a bus to Faro downtown where you'll find both the train and bus stations almost side by side. As mentioned above, you can use one of those to get to Lagos.

Carlos House is close to the Lagos main public transportation, such as bus and train. About 10 minutes walking distance.

By train:

Walk through the Marina, cross the suspension bridge and turn left to the main avenue (Descobrimentos Avenue). Continue down the main avenue, you should pass a Repsol Gasoline Station on your right hand side. Continue on for a minute and you will pass a fish market, taxi stand and post office (on a commercial street). Then, there is a small square with a funny statue in the middle. (ATTENTION PLEASE: don't walk to much on the main avenue or you'll get to a big square with another statue far from us and you'd have to return).
From there (small square), enter Rua (street) Garrett towards the next little square. You will see at one corner a shop named "Obrigado". Enter the long street next to it (Rua Infante de Sagres) and go up the hill. Turn the second right, then the first left and finally you'll see the begining of our street "Jogo da Bola" after just 50 meters. You'll find us at the number eight.


By bus (except for the Renex bus):

Leave the bus station towards the river and turn right into the main avenue (Descobrimentos Avenue). Continue down the main avenue, you should pass a Repsol Gasoline Station on your right hand side.
