The traffic situation, agberos, bad roads and now traffic robbers are the undoing of Lagos tourism. Lagos has beautiful and modern places of attraction but for the highlighted issues, they are not being fully utilised. I wish things were different sad .

All those places shown by the OP don't have bad roads.... the standard of living on the island is EXTREMELY DIFFERENT from the mainland and the rest of Nigeria as a whole.

If your idea of a quick getaway includes stunning beach and luxury accommodation in a quiet and private environment, then La Manga Luxury Beach Villas in Ilashe Island, Lagos with its spectacular and invigorating view of the ocean is the place for you.

La Manga Luxury Beach Villa is a little piece of paradise nested along the unspoiled Atlantic Ocean on the beautiful and alluring Island of Ilashe in Lagos, bordering the Badagry creek and surrounded by luscious and towering coconut palm trees with just 15 minutes boat ride from Ikoyi and Victoria Island.

You need to be loaded to spend a night on this Island Villa. You'll be charged as much as N170,000/per night. For event and picnic getaway, you'll spend as much as N2m/per day.
