Nice place, good sized villa, golfing on site. Staff is pleasant, helpful and accommodating. Typical European single, uncomfortable beds, but we bought a mattress topper and joined the beds for a king sized cozy sleeping accommodations. Over-all it’s good value for the price.

The staff was amazing at the Balaia reception. The cleaning staff was okay, not great. The beds are terrible. Hard as rocks and the pillows are unacceptable. Time for the Balaia rentals to get decent beds and bed sheets and blankets. I will not stay there again .

Disappointing Balaia Golf Village

Our first apartment although renovated smelled of mould and mildew and had no sunlight. The second room was sunny but not renovated - that is OK but the level of cleanliness in the kitchen, on the headboards, on woodwork, etc. was terrible. The sofa was so bad it should have been thrown out long ago. And since we changed rooms, we were not allowed to have the basket with dish soap so I washed dishes with shampoo!

The apartment was a decent size for two people for a 2-week stay, we were satisfied with the accommodations. The kitchen has the basics and as long as you did not want to cook gourment meals, it had everything you needed. The property can use some maintenance and repairs (windows pulling away from the sills and in need of re-sealing, cracked door panels, worn out cabinet moldings), but this was nothing that lessened our enjoyment. For those planning to stay here, you need t know that you need to provide your own dish soap, face soap, etc. as the property only supplies enough until you can do some shopping. If booking through through Expedia, you get free access to the indoor pool, but you still need to rent towels and buy a bathing cap, so it's not really free. They have a number of nice-looking outdoor pools, but they are not heated :-( . Reception staff is friendly and helpful. Nearest beach is about a 10-15 minute walk away. We would not have a problem staying here again.

Nice unit

Lovely unit with great patio. I wish one of the 6 outdoor pools was heated, although there is an indoor heated pool which you can use for an additional fee. Golf course is an executive length and well maintained but is quite short.

Good if proximity to swimming pool is not importan

The appartement was well equipped for family with kids. We booked superior apartments but we were given one toward the end of the compound far from the swimming pool especially if you have small kids. Staff at the reception did not show flexibility to provide us with a convenient location.
