The beautifully landscaped gardens of Balaia Golf Village are the perfect backdrop for your holiday in the sun. Considered to be one of the most outstanding developments in the Algarve, Balaia Golf Village nestles within an environment of mature pine, cork, and almond trees covering an area of 40 hectares.
In this lovely whitewashed, bougainvillea covered resort you can walk just a few yards to the clubhouse and first tee. When you've finished your round on this little gem of a nine hole par three course, take a leisurely dip in one of the six outdoor pools close by.... or perhaps a workout in the gym followed by a few lengths of the indoor pool or laze in its corner Jacuzzi.
Maybe, even, a session in the steam room followed by a relaxing massage. Later a game of tennis, or a bucket of balls on the 60 bay driving range. Want to improve your game?... at Balaia you can take lessons from one of the multi lingual professionals at the golf school. Everything on your doorstep and with great facilities in the apartment too.
This fabulous resort has everything you can wish for in a holiday - whether you are a golfer, a family, group of friends or a honeymoon couple.

Terrific appartment, whith lots of extras. Very clean,bright, owner has nice taste in decor. It is a distance from reception15-20 mins leisurely walk so would be better with a hire car, but I managed to walk everywhere and sometimes took taxi back. I am 80. Restaurants nearby good,golf house very friendly and good food. Wonderful 9 hole challenging golf course with lots of practise areas around . Sparkling blue clean pools. Lovely beach very close, within walking distance. Very peaceful location with open outlook and lots of wild birdlife to enjoy.I will book again and recommend to friends

Hi Chris, Just an email to say thank you. We had a lovely stay at your apartment in Balaia. The apartment was fantastic and we couldn’t of asked for more. The children enjoyed themselves immensely. The pool nearby was lovely and everywhere was very clean. The weather was beautiful, not like here now at home. We hope to book your apartment for next year and will let you know as soon as possible. Thank you again for a great holiday Regards Paula & Paul

Chris & Linda Thanks very much for the use of your apartment at Balaia in July this year. We had a fantastic time, the apartment was lovely very modern and clean and in a nice location. It had everything we needed for a very enjoyable stay including 14 days of glorious sunshine, who could ask for anything more? The resort was great, very well maintained and the staff very helpful. The kids loved the pools - we had to try all of them!!!!!!! This made it a very relaxing holiday for us as they were quite happy splashing around while we chilled. (as they say" just what the doctor ordered!") We found plenty of great places to eat nearby, all of which we have left info on for others and yourselves to enjoy too. Wild & Co and Invictus in the New Town were fab as was Fratelli's in Olhos d Agua. (All great for the kids too!) All in all we had a great two weeks at Balaia and would definitely return in the near future. We have also recommended your apartment to friends who are looking for a relaxing holiday in the sun as Balaia ticks all the boxes! Thanks again. Caroline Scotland.

Not only did I score with the weather on my recent break to Balaia but the apartment was home from home. Everything you could possibly need for a stress free holiday in Portugal. The beach is a 15 minute walk if you fancy a change from the numerous onsite pools. There is a supermarket to stock up on basics, restaurant, clubhouse or poolside cafeteria for dining out; the gym and tennis courts to work of the calories or if like me you are not so energetic go for the various beauty treatments offered and be pampered! The local transport runs right outside or a taxi ordered from reception to go further afield. I can't guarantee your weather but clean, comfortable accommodation in a quiet location with superb views I can. Mandy Aberdeen, Scotland April 2011

Hi Chris, Just to let you know we had a great holiday, the apartment was really good and we'd definitely return at sometime in the future. We didn't use the apartment that much as the weather was amazing (unlike here right now), made the most of the pools, so many pools to choose from. Thanks again and would definitely recommend to friends. Regards Karen

Chris Sorry for the delay in responding. We had a lovely time in Balaia. The apartment was fantastic - very comfortable and well appointed. The weather was great (the last sun we'll see for a few months). The resort was relatively quiet which suited us down to the ground and evidently well looked after by the staff. Great food, great wine and lovely people. All in all it was a really pleasant holiday - many thanks. James and Sara

Hi Chris, I'm back in Canada now, and wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your beautiful apartment. We loved the golf course and pools, and thought everything was very convenient. We would definitely like to return to Portugal again, and when we do, I hope your apartment is available for rental! The village is gorgeous, and so well maintained. It was truly a joy to experience all Balaia had to offer. Thanks again for everything! K Link Canada.
