What Lekki is known for

Lekki runs east from Victoria Island along the Lagos coast. It is known for newer apartment buildings, a busy restaurant and lounge scene, and a crowd of young professionals, remote workers, and people from the tech and startup world. Guests choose it because it feels current and sociable, with plenty to do within a short drive.

The trade-off is the road. The Lekki-Epe Expressway slows down badly at peak hours, so Lekki works best when your plans keep you on the island rather than sending you across to the mainland every day.

Where to stay in Lekki

  • Lekki Phase 1

    This is the most established part of Lekki and the usual starting point for a first stay. Apartments, restaurants and offices sit close together, with Admiralty Way as the main strip. It is also the part of Lekki closest to Victoria Island.

  • Ikate

    Ikate sits next to Lekki Phase 1, with quieter residential streets and a good supply of newer buildings. It suits guests who want a calmer place to sleep and still want the restaurants a short ride away.

  • Near the Lekki Conservation Centre

    Further along the expressway, this area suits visitors who want green space and a less crowded setting than the Phase 1 strips. It is a longer drive to Victoria Island, so check your travel time before you book.
