Ikoyi is one of Lagos's most established upscale districts, stretching along the Lagos Lagoon with a mix of colonial-era architecture, diplomatic residences, modern high-rises, and quiet gated streets. It sits between Victoria Island and the mainland connections, making it a preferred address for executives, families, and long-term investors.

Property ranges from heritage homes and low-rise apartments to new luxury towers with marina views. Many streets are leafy and comparatively calm relative to central VI, though major arteries can still slow at peak times. Security-conscious estates and 24-hour patrols are common.

Dining, hotels, and offices are concentrated along Awolowo Road, Osborne, and the waterfront, with quick access to VI and Lekki via the Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge. Schools and hospitals on this guide are representative anchors—always confirm catchment, fees, and availability directly.

When comparing Ikoyi with Lekki Phase 1 or Ajah, expect higher entry prices but strong rental demand from corporate tenants and the diplomatic community. Parking and power vary by building; newer developments typically offer backup generators and structured parking.
