It’s never been easier to reach Whispering Palms.

In addition to road links we have added water taxi options that can reach the resort in as little as 50 minutes from central Lagos. 

With Lagos’s new emphasis on safe water travel there are a range of options depending on your budget and how quickly you would like to move.

We are starting our scheduled boat services with Lagos’s best known water taxi operator, Texas Connection Ferries who have a jetty and ample car parking in Osborne Foreshore, Ikoyi. 

Boat services come directly to Whispering Palms own jetty on the lagoon esplanade of the resort.

For those travelling by road we are introducing a shuttle service with pickups from the Shoprite Ikeja carpark. Pickups can be arranged if you live on the Badagary Expressway side of Lagos and from the domestic and international airport.

Our boat and shuttle services are being phased in, starting with public holidays and peak periods.

We know the Lagos to Badagary Expressway has a bad reputation with the condition of the road. Travel can still be challenging but there is a solid  improvement on the 2016 to 2020 period, with much of the roadworks now completed. Travel times will vary but you should allow 3 hours if traveling by road from Lagos.

Our reception team are happy to help anytime with questions about directions and options for how you travel to and from the resort.

With the full range of activities at the resort this could be a very long page.

The first two activities most of our guests enjoy is the space for relaxation – whether it is under the trees poolside, chilling on the lagoon edge, or just in your room away from the noise of the city.

For kids there is all the space for them to run off steam in the playground, under the trees, or on the bicycles that take 2 to 4 persons around the resort.

During weekends and public holidays we have evening activities which range from salsa dance classes through to classes on making cocktails.

Holiday extras also include bouncy castles, children’s parties, DJ and live music, and more !

Once you’re ready to step out there is the dedicated Whispering Palms beach that is just 5 minutes by boat from our jetty. It’s your chance to chill on the coast or play in the waves.

We have a standard day trip from the resort which allows you to do the Point of No Return (slave trade historical route) and the Badagary museums in just one day.

There are a full range of sports options at the resort – a tennis court, mini golf, table tennis, pool table, volleyball, a mini football space, and a basketball half court. Some of these are undergoing refurbishment but you can enjoy all of them during your stay.

For groups and retreats we have a range of activities that can be added to our regular activities to make your stay unique.
