This hotel is far from 5*, the ‘all inclusive’ food options were substandard. Around 3-4 choices in a restaurant that had 0 atmosphere and felt more like a canteen. After the 2nd night of struggling to make a meal with the options available and having to find food elsewhere (which defeats the object of paying for 5* All Inclusive) we complained to the manager who provided us with a wrist band to the neighbouring and sister hotel Palm Village whose food options and dining facilities were some what better, however nowhere near 5* standard. The hotel is also full of children who are under your feet when trying to plate up food. We had come on holiday for a relaxing couple get away, however it felt like we had checked into Butlins. the entertainment is also embarrassing. I have seen better from drunks on Karaoke in the local pub. Please don’t waste your money and stay here. We have stayed in 4* hotels what would run rings around this place. We won’t be returning.

Huge hotel with four pools. Large room and shower room. Not much natural light so seemed rather dark in places. The food was varied and plentiful. We were all inclusive, there were even afternoon snacks and midnight snacks. My only negatives were that without a car you couldn’t walk to anywhere, it was out of the way. Which should suggest it was quiet but it so was not. Loud music around the pool and kids in abundance! The evening entertainment was ok, mostly singers but got monotonous after a while and again kids up and running around the whole night. So great for families but not so great if you want to chill out on holiday.

No restaurant options, bar was always closed, all advertised children activities closed, unfriendly staff. Tge room was great but overall experience horrendous for a 5 star property.

Fantastic hotel and couldn't ask for more. Really enjoyed our stay.

I was really impressed with the size of the rooms we had, not sure if we were upgraded? But the room was huge with a separate living area in which the children’s camp beds were placed. It had two toilets and two shower rooms which was fab. Cleaners did a wonderful job and put the children’s teddies in their pillows which was such a nice touch. Buffet food - was poor in my opinion. Very much the same thing every day, pasta, pizza, chips and not enough variety. Wine served on the all inclusive was very good though. Normally when it’s all inclusive it tastes like vinegar, but this was a very nice Portuguese wine. They also serve other branded alcohol and nice Portuguese beers. The only problem being, whenever we went to get a drink at the bar in the evening or at the pool bar, you had to wait a minimum of 20 mins (day time) and up to half an hour in the evening, as they only ever had one person serving at the bar at a time. Note on the pools - kids pool was fab with the pirate ship in it, which my kids loved. But the tile floor in the pool was rough and sharp and both my children cut/grazed their knees in it. Also all of the pools were really murky looking which we only noticed on the second day. We stayed here for x3 nights after staying at Vidamar resort for x7 days and you could definitely notice the drop in quality/service. Overall very disappointed with the stay and wish we had stayed on at Vidamar

The main problem was internet connection (WiFi). Sometimes it didn't work, more often it would work but barely have 1Mbps so couldn't even watch YouTube or download a bigger attachment from email. The food in the buffet(s) was good, with voucher entry to the other 2 restaurants available: - The upstairs restaurant was very nice too (1 voucher per every 5 or 7 days stay) - wish we could have gone more often - The one by the pool (1 voucher per every 3 days stay) was always the same food but good. Wish there was more variety The hotel was very isolated, so if you want to go out at night and walk to a high street then forget it. The entertainment in the hotel was ok. The games room could be so much better though! Walking around the hotel was very nice and relaxing, so it may be what you are looking for. Another strange one was the access to the Spa. We had a voucher (1 voucher per 5 or 7 days stay) but couldn't use unless we purchased equipment like hair protective cap. What's the point of providing a voucher if we then have to purchase stuff to use the amenities? It looked nice but mostly empty. The outside pools were nice, they were warmed too in colder days, which is excellent! They could benefit from more shades, though. There weren't enough for all the chairs and some of them were broken on top of it... I think there's no excuse, there were too many broken shades which gives the impression of abandonment, not what you expect from a 5 star Hotel. Excellent rooms and staff.

We love all of it the bed pillows breakfast the beach the people

The hotels rooms are of a good size and the showers are huge compared to other hotels I’ve been to. The breakfast buffet was delicious with lots of variety. The hotel was lovely enough to surprise me with cake and champagne on my birthday. The thing I liked most about the hotel was the fact that it was away from all the hype and partying of Albufeira, it was a very peace and pleasant weekend for myself and my girlfriend.

Breakfast buffet quite nice, Moonlight restaurant quite nice, Dinner buffet not great and Moonlight bar not great. Moonlight bar expensive even though we only ordered virgin mojitos. Normally they cost 4-5 EURO. Hotel bar charged us 8 EURO

We liked eating outside at the buffet restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner because it was shaded. Our kids loved the kids pool with the pirate ship and slides.

Very child friendly hotel childrens entertainment all day lots of different activities.

First impressions - very nice, modern and clean hotel. Atrium is very big with a nice bar and lounge area. Staff very approachable and friendly. Room - very clean and sufficient for our needs. Pool - four nice sized pools for all types of guest. Food - not bad for an all inclusive. Its never going to be great but can complain really. Drinks - good selection of drinks Non-Alcoholic and Alcoholic. Staff - really friendly and helpful. Entertainment - lots of choices for everyone Negatives - Beds aren't that comfortable but that comes down to preference. Hotel is obviously understaffed e.g. lines of people waiting to get drinks every night. Things in rooms starting to fall apart and need slight refurb to bring up to standard e.g. sink waste pop-up broken Overall happy with stay but improvements could be made. Would be happy to stay again but maybe not for the price

An average five-star hotel with nothing too memorable. Room price contains all-inclusive catering, so it's alright in terms of value for money

Nice but tech problems with the room & massage prices need to be cut in half. Good breakfast buffet.

This hotel has a beautiful view from the room and makes the staff make you feel at home. My partner and I throughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to others! Thank you Salgados Palace

It was amazing and the staff were just so helpful. I was celebrating my birthday while I was staying with them and they had cake and champagne waiting for me in my room on my birthday. I never once mentioned it so I thought it was just so lovely and kind

Loved the hotel, staff were very friendly especially at the restaurant. The hotel seems more for business groups rather than family oriented. Didn’t like that you had to pay for use of jacuzzi and indoor swimming pool. Outdoor pools were a bit too cold for the kids. But still enjoyed our stay.

Internet is only available on the inside and still, not very good. Not so many activities for both kids and adults. Buffet food could use some additional variety. On the upper side, staff is really great, as well as the rooms and the pools. Covered car parking, nursing facilities and great pools. Beautiful sunset

We had three nights at this hotel and the service was first class. All inclusive, which is so much more value for money. Our room was spacious and clean with a great walk in shower!
