Marina Club Suite Hotel
We really enjoyed staying at the marina. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We upgraded from the standard department to the premium one and it was lovely view of the pool and marina. The kitchen was well appointed.

Villa Doris Suites
The apartment was very nice, modern, and right on the water. Right outside our door was an entrance to the boardwalk that overlooks the southern coast of Lagos. It was a 7 minute drive to the marina where we parked for the day so we could walk around town.
