Algarve Marriott Salgados Golf Resort & Spa

"Stayed here for a weekend on points, had driven in from Spain. Resort is fine, clean, spacious, but it was dead when we were there and they were renovating the Japanese restaurant so not many dinning options. The breakfast spread was comprehensive so definitely pay for that at checkin as it's cheaper that way. Sunsets are beautiful so try and get a high room over the pool. Ate at the Italian restaurant it was fine. The real draw of the place for me was the golf and it didn't disappoint as far as a well kept, well irrigated, playable course. However, I had to rent clubs and had no equipment. Was very disappointed that they nickle and dimed me, had to buy tees, and water?!?! What golf resort doesn't give you tees and water?!?!?! Especially when it's super hot out. I got out early and walked and despite this point I was in fact pleasantly surprised that the bar cart girl just gave me a water when i told her I didn't have any cash, so that was nice. Anyway, we drove to Faro and enjoyed the restaurants and bars there, it is def worth the trip."

"Beautiful hotel with fantastic, helpful and friendly staff. The room was stunning, large with a balcony, well thought out and had everything you need, the shower room was great, so much space. We returned to the room and chocolates had been left for us, which was a lovely surprise. I’ve have travelled a lot and the breakfast is probably one of the best I have ever had, brilliant selection of food and drinks, and a chef will make the eggs of your choice. We ate at the hotel restaurant and had a pizza which was lovely, albeit slightly small, but at €20 we thought it was a bit pricey for a margarita. The hotel is a bit far out and you would definitely need a car, as there is very little in the surrounding areas, unless you are primarily there to golf. I would definitely recommend the hotel and look forward to returning in the future. 😊"

"We booked a resort view suite, thinking it would be a pleasant view over the resort. We ended up with a beautiful room but with the view of the next door 4 star resort rooms and above the air-conditioning massive units that are noisy and make sitting on the balcony very unpleasant and a road. When I went to complain I was told that it is a view of 'a resort'. I was also told by the porter that if we keep the balcony doors closed you can't hear the air-conditioning units. So very disappointed. This is our first night out of 4, let's hope things improve."
