Family of 3 had an amazing time at the property. Really well impressed with the kitchen gadgets provided. Some board games available too which were a plus. Property had dishwasher, washing machine and heating. Will certainly book my next year’s annual visit to the Algarve at the Balaia Golf Village Resort.
Property is well maintained in the communal grounds area Staff are polite and helpful Reception area clean.
3 bed superior apartment nicely decorated and clean on arrival, however the bedrooms could benefit from a thorough clean to remove dust. Also ,however some appliance's microwave and toaster , smoke alarms did not work so had to be replaced , when the reception was alerted about this problem Maintainance people arrived immediately to the property. Problems with linen, brown blankets in wardrobe need to be cleaned as they are filled with dust mites and are not usable. Some linen have soiled stains also so need to be replaced and cleaned. Issues with the apartment configuration as bedrooms are downstairs and kitchen is upstairs. This makes it difficult for people with mobility problems as the stairs do not have railings and this makes it difficult to go up and down the stairs , However once upstairs the decor , amenities are very nice and there is a large balcony with a dining table outside . Also a dining table for 6 people inside and lots of cutlery, pots and pans. Also beware of the electrical problem , the electricity will trip and cut off if there are too many appliances being used. So when cooking , turn off the lights upstairs and downstairs. Apartment was very cold and had to use the AC heater in all rooms, all ACs work very well. Apartment has a washer dryer which is very helpfully. All bedrooms at the back had patios with tables and chairs which was a bonus.

Absolutely fantastic self catering accommodation, our apartment overlooked the driving range, very quite with a really nice small pool near by. Well stocked and maintained apartment on a nice quiet site conveniently situated for surrounding golf courses. Not much very close and everything was an UBER ride away but would reccomend for anyone travelling to the Algarve for a golf trip, fun little par 3 course on site and loads of fantastic courses within 20/30 mins. Albufeira is a bit lively but found some nice restaurants and the beach is really nice, I will definately visit this site again

Good location and the apartment was a good size and had all necessary amenities. However, the furniture is badly in need of updating as the couch was worn out and extremely uncomfortable. The bed was very hard. Cleaning was hit and miss. Lots of little maintenance items need taking care of.
Sent an email to the property describing all these issues but never heard anything back. .

Excellent base, great for travelling with teens
Excellent base, quick 10 mins Uber ride to Albufeira Old Town, plenty of great dining options within walking distance too. Plus onsite restaurants which we didn’t try as wanted to eat out.
Resort has six generous pools, we tried them all, our 2 bed apartment was single story and our patio was right next to one of the pools. Had our own deckchairs which was heaven! Apartment was a little dated and decor could be modernised a bit (apartment 418) but it was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. Perfect base for families. Would definitely come back to Balaia! We had such a chilled week!
