The sense of family owned . I had been there 10 years ago with my husband and it was just so relaxing. Was a bit sceptical about having to pay €300 refundable deposit but to be honest I can see why it’s in place. The holiday club is extreme value for money and if the €300 scares people off then it’s for a good reason. The Balaia Sol should be very proud of their bar and pool staff and especially the night porter my two little girls took a shine to him

The noise at times! Being a young family the children were in bed for 10pm but the tiling on the corridor floors meant the voices and walking were amplified at 2/3am . As previously mentioned the €300 was a bit steep especially for a widowed mum of two small kids but I totally agree with it being in place however I would suggest owners discretion be put in place and not charge returning guests.

Absolutely amazing place to stay. Very clean. Staff is very friendly. This was my first holiday abroad, and I was not disappointed. It's about 15 min. walk to the town centre. We booked Uber a few times, and it was between 3-4Euros one way. Albufeira is worth visiting, and the Balaia Sol Holiday Club is a great place to stay. Despite very noisy neighbours, I will still rate this place as 5 stars, but I would definitely suggest for the owners to make a rule that after 10-11pm.the noise should be kept to the minimum. At the end of the day, we are all different, and it's absolutely fine. However, we should think about others too. And we should treat people how we would like to be treated by others. 2 Happy Customers.

Noisy neighbours

Lovely studio apartment set in a small family run holiday club. Beautiful well maintained gardens. Staff were all friendly and acknowledged us every time we passed. Plenty of Sun loungers, nice pool to cool down. Well stocked bar/restaurant. Greeted every night by the night watchman. Short walk in Albufeira or plenty of Ubers/Bolts available. 100% recommend.

Could do with a full length mirror.

The whole set up was amazing: portuguese style with Mediterranean flowering plants making beautiful arches, all the details like decoration on the walls, ceramic pots with plants, all made me feel like I'm away from the place I live. Felt like I'm in traditional Portuguese village.

Can't really complain about anything to be honest, every place has some bad points, this one had a couple too, but so little and meaningless that is not worth mentioning

Location was great! 10 min drive to old town and 5 to the new town, staff were very friendly especially at the bar by the pool, food there was also really good, however cleaners came quite early and unlocked our door multiple times when we were still sleeping which then woke us up, other than that the place is great, definitely recommend to anyone planning on coming to Albufeira!

The accommodation is situated in a peaceful location, within easy reach of the busy areas. During our stay the temperature was too hot to walk to the strip, previous reviews had recommended the Uber app. We found this a reasonably priced, reliable way to get around. The studio we stayed in was roomy with a lovely view. We found the staff to be friendly and willing to help when required. We were very happy with the accommodation and would stay again if we travelled to Albufeira with a desire to stay in a property slightly out of town. Thank you

Beautiful surroundings, quiet area and 5 minutes by uber to the old town. Ideal if you wanted a chilled out base with access to bars and restaurants. Apartment was spacious and clean, pool area was relaxed and pretty with lots of plants and always easy to find a sun bed. Staff were super friendly and helpful.

Very limited shop on site, mini market was just 5 mins away though. No way to leave the power on in the rooms when away which made leaving devices to charge while out during the day impossible but this is extremely minor. We had a two room apartment and air con was only in the bedroom, a fan in the other room would have made a huge difference.

I stayed here last summer and returned three times this summer , twice on my own and once with a friend. This is a superb family run resort . It has been very quiet and relaxing each time I have stayed. The staff are great and have all worked at the place for years and take a great deal of pride in it . It is immaculately clean through out , the gardens, ground and pool are so well tended it is a really pleasurable place to be. The facilities in the apartments mean you can cook a full meal , store plenty of food and wine . The bonus is it is a walk away from a large Aldi. There are some great local restaurants near by and some lovely walks. The strip with the normal generic holiday bars are are accessible but a fair walk but the advantage is you don't get the noise from these at all.
