Algarve Marriott Salgados Golf Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"The staff were absolutely wonderful, friendly, attentive and professional throughout. Their service was exceptional, and they went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable. A big thank you to the whole team for their warmth and hospitality. Highly recommended!"

BaySide Salgados

8/10 Good

"This is a lovely little complex tucked away in a quiet location. Ideal if you have a car. It’s well maintained. spotlessly clean and the staff are so friendly and polite. Our apartment had a spacious corner balcony. The only negative in our opinion was that the apartment was tired and the sofa bed mattress was very thin. It’s about a 20 minute walk to the beach, There’s a supermarket just down the road. The pool area is nice and relaxing. Breakfast was good."

Marriott Residences Salgados Resort, Algarve

8/10 Good

"Had a lovely time here, staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely however not much of a queuing system so a lot of people was pushing in front and going where ever they pleased which was unpleasant. Our rooms was spacious and clean, however outside in the hallway was not nice or kept clean, bird poo was outside and wasn't cleaned at at all not a nice sight when walking to our room. The lift was also grimey, I think they need a good clean. Shuttle to the beach wss excellent, kids loved it. Overall stay was good, shame there isnt much around outside but if you're happy to stay in the pool and chill out this is the place for you"

Marsuites B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Marsuites B&B in Albufeira Portugal is charming, tranquil, inviting. The staff are very gracious and hospitable. Breakfast is homemade, fresh and yummy, the coffee is very good. The entire property is clean, chic and well maintained. We are very happy that we have chosen this place to stay."

Wine & Books by the sea

10/10 Excellent

"Buffet breakfast was excellent, serving everything you would want. We didn’t have half board and used the Primadonna Italian restaurant and Cocos Portuguese restaurant over the 5 nights we stayed. Both were excellent. Plenty of sunbeds around the pool. After midday, the young lads from the bar were very friendly and helpful serving the poolside. Beach was 200m 5 minutes to walk along the wooden boardwalk."

Delightful, modern villa in a quite and peaceful area. Private heated pool (opt)

10/10 Excellent

"This is an amazing villa, Sarah our host was so helpful and most accommodating. She went above and beyond to make us welcome. Only had one issue with the iron and she sorted it in 5 min. Whole place is completely stocked with more than you need and so clean and comfortable. The pool area was fab and more than enough room for everyone. She also left a welcome package of milk, tea, bread eggs etc, so very helpful after a long trip. We didn't hv a car but Ubers are very reasonable to Guai or Albufeira so didn't mind. Highly recommend all of it, thanks."

Peralux

10/10 Excellent

"The accommodations were great and exactly what I was looking for during my family’s vacation. A little town that wasn’t a tourist trap and had all the accommodations we needed. There were multiple cafes close by and we were only 15 minutes to a beach. The pool was refreshing and needed as we visited during an early heat wave. We ended up extending our stay for 3 extra days with no problem. Local restaurants were also amazing. My only complaint was parking was a pain. We will definitely be going back!"
