just came back from the bayside salgados, after reading the reviews were a little bit wary of what to expect. This place is a quiet oasis on a no through road so no passing traffic. It has a nice bar and a restuarant, we did not eat there much as we had a car and ate out and many of... More

Having booked before I read any reviews, I was worried about what I would find when I arrived. I should never have given them any concern. I really do not know what all those people who wrote the negative (if not spiteful) reviews were expecting. The rooms were not dirty, they were not noisy, and the staff were not unfriendly.... More

I will start by saying this hotel is not bad but if you have booked this hotel thinking its in albuferia near the town or the strip like we were told its not! The hotel is situated near salgados golf club witch is about 6-7k away from the town and 8-9k from the strip, I stayed here in march 2013... More

Arrived 1st May, pre season. The rooms were clean and of a reasonable size. Plenty of facillities for self catering and only 5 - 10 minutes walk to the local supermarket.

Stayed end April beginning of May 2013. Never wrote a review before but after reading some of the reviews before we went it did not look like the Bayside we went to so I thought I would say what we found. Our visit to Bayside was part of a deal with Thomas Cook. The coach transfer from Faro Airport took... More

Apartment complex looked great in the brochure but when we arrived we found that the accommodation was poor, there was no air conditioning, you couldn't swim in the pool as it was filthy, there were loads of cats roaming all over the place, the staff were extremely rude and unhelpful. We stayed two nights and went to another apartment at... More

Okay so this was such a great holiday, the hotel not so much.. but the people that work there are lovely. If you are looking for a quiet cheap relaxing holiday to just chill out and go to the beach then this hotel is fine if your on a budget - the beach 10 mins walk away is lovely! But... More

We arrived in the evening. The receptionist was friendly and explained everything to us. You need to pay a €50 deposit, cash or card. There is a fob you need to insert next to the door to get electricity so take a torch if you arrive at night because you will have difficulty locking the door in pitch darkness. The... More

Booked this as we just wanted a cheap 4 day break and after reading the reviews just thought people were being fussy with the bad reviews!! How wrong we were!! Arrived at 2-30 am after sitting on a coach for 31/2 hours so were not in the best of moods! Got there to what looked like the middle of nowhere... More
