Apartments in Foz

If you are looking at apartments in Foz, the first thing you should know is that the offer is limited but varied: in total there are eight accommodations of this type, with an average price of 124 euros per night and a minimum of around 43. The average category is 3.6 stars, so don't expect great luxuries, but rather functional establishments in good locations to enjoy the Lugo coast. Among the names you will find are Monqar Playa Foz, Monqar, Alojamientos Foz 3000 or Las Catedrales, each with its own personality.

As for the areas, Rapadoira beach is the most central and practical: you have the promenade, bars and supermarkets at hand, and most of the apartments are less than ten minutes away on foot. If you prefer quiet, the area towards the marina or the exit towards Burela will give you more silence, although you will have to take the car for almost everything. The Las Catedrales area, about ten kilometres away, is ideal if you are looking for nature and trails, but don't expect services nearby: there the accommodation is more isolated and it is advisable to bring your shopping done. The main difference between them is the distance to the sea and to services: in the centre everything is on foot, while on the outskirts you gain calm but lose convenience.

Prices drop considerably outside July and August, and also at Easter if it does not coincide with local holidays. If you can, travel in June or September: the weather is still pleasant, there are fewer people and apartments can cost half as much as in high season. To get there, the most common way is to drive on the A-8 to the Foz exit; from Lugo capital it will take you about 45 minutes, and from A Coruña a little more than an hour and a half. The bus arrives from several cities, but the frequency is limited, so if you don't have your own vehicle, getting around the nearby beaches will be complicated. Within the town, everything is walkable, although to go to Las Catedrales or Arealonga beach you will need a car or taxi.

Before booking, check whether the apartment includes bed linen and towels, because some charge for them separately. Also check whether the final price adds cleaning or tourist taxes, which sometimes do not appear at first glance. And check the cancellation policy: in summer many require payment in advance and do not refund anything if you cancel at short notice. Finally, note whether there is a lift or whether the flat is on the second or third floor without an elevator, something more common than it seems in old buildings in the area.
