The Salty Lodge

Our four-day stay at The Salty Lodge during the peak of summer was absolutely perfect. Located just steps away from the bustling old town, the area remains surprisingly safe and quiet—ideal for a relaxing getaway. The apartment-style rooms were spacious enough for our family of four, with a private veranda overlooking street life, shops, and local restaurants. The shower delivered strong water pressure, hot water was never an issue, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. We especially loved the rooftop on the fifth floor—unforgettable views, especially at sunrise. Don’t miss it! Daily housekeeping and the nightly turn-down service made our experience even more enjoyable. The hotel provides everything you need for a beach day: towels, blankets, umbrellas, beach toys, and even bikes to borrow. There’s also a filtered water refill station—a small but thoughtful touch. Joanna at the front desk was consistently kind, attentive, and helpful throughout our entire stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Lagos. So glad we chose The Salty Lodge!
