Reviews for Résidence Salina Bay

Review 1:Everything was perfect, and the only recommendation I would make would be to look at the speed of the broadband and wifi provided as on occasion it was incredibly slow to load web pages and e-mail. Mind you, this would only really be of concern to those of us who unfortunately need to continue with a bit of work whilst on holiday!

Review 2:Location, quality of apartment and staff were all fantastic. Our apartment which was a luxury two bed, had an amazing view and an even more amazing terrace to enjoy it from. Would definitely stay again!

Review 3:not a major problem, but: the plastic shower base looked cheap and out of tune with the rest of the fittings which are of reasonably high standard Lighting, particularly in the common corridor, is very sad and could easily be improved

Review 4:Location is very central, close to the port and the centre flats are new , clean and offer plenty of space

Review 5:Few little extras like salt and pepper in the cupboard or a clean tea towel would go a long way to make the stay more comfortable and would not cost a lot to organise specially for international travellers. Even a starter pack to be purchased at the reception would be welcome. Otherwise we had a very pleasant stay.

Review 6:Nice location and reasonably close marina, Short car ride to magnificent beaches.Supermarket also very close by.Up to date facilities. Will definitely return!

Review 7:No sitting in grass areas no walks . Left my swim suit and toiletries after me and the check out lady arrived at apt as we left we were still at our car as she passed us after checking but said nothing she has to have seen them not trustworthy I'm afraid . Enjoyed ou stay otherwise thanks

Review 8:You are not allowed to walk the grass and there is no access to the pool between blocks A and D. There is a wifi access point in every flat - which is overkill, however, address space is limited and it is hard to get connected at all. If you manage.. the typical average bandwidth is below 100Kbit/s, i.e. like last century. For a property of this price they should invest in bandwidth and modernize their system. There is very good mobile data coverage. So get a SIM card. I find it shocking that WIFI cannot be considered as "included". Kitchen is well equipped in general (I bring my own knifes) and what is not there can be requested. However, some things like the can opener or grater have been purchased for 99 Cent or so and are virtually unusual (and break). I do not understand why they cannot invest 5 Euro, make the guests happy and it will last 10 times longer.

Review 9:10 mins walk to city centre, 5 mins to harbour, supermarket casino opposite. Very spatious and generally well equipped.

Review 10:The flat was spotless but I don't think that the tiled floor is washed properly as our feet were very dirty after walking around inside. Shame that they don't provide a little starter pack with washing-up liquid, sponge etc upon arrival. Also an oven without oven gloves makes no sense! Pool not very child friendly as very deep. It's big enough to have had a shallow section.

Review 11:Beautiful flat with amazing views. Very specious and comfortable beds. Good location.

Review 12:We loved the location. Ate out in the marina and town most nights. Close by but quite steep up to the town. Very pretty, great restaurants. Great having the shop on the doorstep. LOVED the beaches. Would return :)

Review 13:The wifi is very intermittent, which was slightly frustrating. Our receptionist also forgot to provide us with the air conditioning and TV remotes until we were due to leave, however we weren't bothered by the TV and we manually switched the air con units on when needed. The only problem is Mosquitos due to the marsh nearby.

Review 14:The two bedroom apartment was at the end of block D, ground floor with lovely views of the marsh. It was quiet and private. The balcony and facilities are excellent, which worked well for our family of five. We were happy to walk the short distance to the pool and think the added privacy plus security provided by not allowing people to walk on the grass is good.

Review 15:Given an early check in of 3pm instead of 5pm through booking.com but even though we had email of confirmation, were told it was an error and no-one gets early check in. Quite rude when I showed email. Still made to wait until 4.30pm. Asked for a toddler friendly ground floor apartment, but were over basement maintenance apartment so terrace had a 3 metre drop onto concrete. Also v noisy with staff coming and going early morning with cleaning trolleys etc. Kid's room opened directly onto large terrace with French doors which were impossible to lock from inside. No-one could get in but our young children could just open and walk out onto unsafe terrace. No walking on grass so had to walk on road beside car park to get to the pool. Very deep pool all over. I am tall but could not stand to hold the children and no inflatables allowed so unsafe for children. No shallow area other than steps. In all I would not recommend to other parents of young children. And I'm not sure they really want young children either...

Review 16:Beautiful apartment, very well equipped.

Review 17:Although the sheets were changed after 1 week, I expected the apartment to be cleaned as well, which it wasn't

Review 18:Modern, well maintained apartment. Lovely surroundings

Review 19:The gravel in the carparking bays was too deep, so after nearly getting stuck twice, we chose to park on the road.

Review 20:Very quiet with lovely surroundings and views of the old town.

Review 21:Poolside area can be quite crowded at peak time with visitors holding onto sun lounges while they take long breaks away from the pool

Review 22:Property was lovely and staff were very pleasant

Review 23:One downside, the apartments are not equipped with a kettle and iron/ironing board but you can lent them from the reception. There is no cleaning and change of towels during your stay but I suppose this is not a hotel so...

Review 24:Everything! Great residence, fantastic, clean pool, very clean great and modern apartments. Great location, supermarket just across the road, 10 mins wallk to the port and about 20 mins walk to the village (steep hill so it will keep you fit). beautiful beach Palombagia 15 mins drive but book your beds in advance. Overall we had a fantastic time in Salina Bay and the ladies at the reception were very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend Salina Bay, especially to families with children as it is very family friendly. If you don't know French take your dictionary as even menus in the restaurants are in French only but I guess it adds to the charm and authentic feel of the resort. Five start stay, would go back.

Review 25:While everything was nice and we did enjoy our time there, the rooms did feel a little like you were really given just the basics - a few extra items would have gone a long way. For example, kitchen could have done with a kettle and a few more cooking utensils and while you can get an iron from the office you can't get an ironing board. We had a two bedroom and we weren't using the pull out bed but there aren't any more seats so while we had room for 4-6 we had seating for 2 maybe 3 in the living room if we all sat in a row. The coffee table was actually the garden furniture coffee table from the seat on the balcony pulled into the living room. Would be nice if they hadn't been quite so stingy especially for the costs and added a chair or two. Cost 5€ to do a load of laundry and another 5€ if you wanted to use the dryer - seemed a bit excessive.

Review 26:All the rules were a bit intense but it does mean that the place keeps its standards. Fantastic balcony to eat out on overlooking pool - would recommend going for a pool front if possible. Beds really comfortable. Lovely pool. Everything was spotless and taken care of. They genuinely care about the property and it shows. Really helpful to have a grocery store right across from the complex. Lovely bakery walking distance away and great location for the beaches and town of the area. Decent air-conditioning. Wifi was good once you got on it but sometimes you'd get a message that they had hit the max number of connections. Generally very comfortable and a nice place to enjoy Corsica from.

Review 27:Modern accommodation but there is not enough seating inside apartment. No basic facilities - need to buy bin bags, toilet roll and other cleaning products. You cannot walk on the grass so if you want to get to the pool from your apartment you need to walk out to car park and then follow path down to pool which is bad planning and means kids have to negotiate cars which means parents can't switch off!! Be warned bring lots of insect repellant!!

Review 28:Close to town, good pool

Review 29:For a residence of this category, and price, rooms are not up to standard.

Review 30:Very well located, 10 min walk from Porto Vecchio center. Nice surroundings with nice swimming pool and big terrace.

Review 31:The apartment wasn't furnished in a way that made you want to relax inside, there was enough room for another sofa. The kitchen only had one socket at counter level for the kettle, toaster and coffee machine. It would have been nice to have enough sun loungers on the terrace for the 4 adults.

Review 32:We loved the size of the apartment and the huge roof terrace/balcony. The grounds around the property and pool were kept very well too, and there was plenty of parking. The beds were very comfy.

Review 33:Nothing,except NO spatula in kitchen equipment!Pleased limited mobility access had been improved

Review 34:Second visit.Would make a third;Gardens beautifully kept!Sad,but understandable;that you cannot walk on the magnificently manicured lawns!!

Review 35:It would be great to have some basic cleaning supplies to spot clean as cleaning is only once a week. While there is a broom, there's no "windex" or bathroom supplies, or garbage bags. There was a tea towel, but not a dish rag. Also, maybe some basic kitchen supplies - even just salt and pepper would be nice.

Review 36:Staff were super friendly throughout the resort. We had a garden view and loved it! So quiet! Unit was large, clean, comfortable and modern. Nespresso machine was great - you can buy more at Reception! Loved it! I'd go back!

Review 37:Why do you have to pay for a kettle?

Review 38:Fantastic holiday. The reception staff are so professional and Julia at the Poolside Bar was delightful. The facilities are excellent and whilst they are very strict with lots of rules, which can feel slightly clinical, this does keep the standards very high. We can't wait to return!

Review 39:They could have supplied some toilet paper and bar of soap as these r essentials before one has chance to shop.

Review 40:The pool and area was very big and lovely.

Review 41:Non-provision of basic cleaning materials - tea towels, dish cloths, washing up liquid, toilet rolls etc. Plastic surfacing material around pool is dangerous - burns feet. Difficult to park due to loose gravel surface. No dressing table, limited drawer space, no coffee table and kettle not automatically provided Plastic liner makes bed too hot and uncomfortable

Review 42:Good location Fantastic swimming pool Quiet, secure Plentiful parking spaces WiFi

Review 43:No welcome pack provided. Small things that would have made a difference, more than one toliet roll, drying cloths. Bed very hard. Spent alot of time and noise getting grass outside perfect and tou were not even allowed to walk on it.

Review 44:Very clean,friendly staff, great pool. Felt safe. Good distance from bars and resturants.

Review 45:All good except Port Vecchio village and port a good 25mins walk up or down after you left residence gate . So not as near to restaurants as we thought.

Review 46:We had apartment in block B 3rd floor. Sun on our balcony every afternoon. Pool was super with new comfortable sun beds. We drove from Ajaccio airport an up and round bend drive but nice villages took us 21/2 hours. Great break.

Review 47:Poolside bar was closed in October and the pool area too small for the number of apartments in peak holidays.

Review 48:Everything and closeness to port and town. It was very spacious apartment and well equipped.

Review 49:swimming pool consistently deep across whole pool - not ideal for young children

Review 50:accommodation very comfortable and very good condition. Well supported with mod cons

Review 51:Nothing to dislike.

Review 52:Our apartment was great, very clean and spacious. Lovely swimming pool, supermarket/bakery across the road and walking distance to the marina. Also, the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Review 53:Nothing Maybe a little more choice of snacks and drinks at the poolside bar? this is splitting hairs really!

Review 54:The apartment was large and well equipped, the beds were very comfortable and the bedding of good quality, everything felt brand new. The complex is exceptionally well looked after, the gardens are lush and manicured. The reception staff were always very helpful .

Review 55:the Internet connection!!!!!! It is utterly unacceptable to have such speed in the 21st century! Either have decent internet or not have one at all. In this case, it is not a matter of bandwidth, but a choice of a really slow speed! For all practical purposes, the property does not have Internet. My husband, who is an IT professional, had to do some work and it was not possible. Please fix this as it is a THORN in an otherwise perfect facility! As an additional small note, I would recommend some additional lighting in the kitchen area and bathroom.

Review 56:Pretty much everything

Review 57:Everything was perfect.

Review 58:Spacious, high-quality apartment, well-equipped kitchen, big terrace, german TV channels, very nice garden, fantastic swimming pool, close to port and to the old town. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Review 59:Staff not too helpful, we asked for extra stool as we were 5 and only 4 stools, but were told it would not look nice. Reception was closed from 12:00 to 15:00 . Make sure you take enough Euro's as there is no place where you can change Pounds to Euros not even in the airport. The swimming pool is deep 1.5m with no shallow area only near the steps.

Review 60:Good location. Next to supermarket. Over all clean. Nice swimming pool who know how to swim.

Review 61:No house cleaning and no change of towels for one week.

Review 62:Sleeps 4. Fabulous pool. Walking distance to all restaurants in Porto Vecchio. Tranquil surroundings

Review 63:- We had a sheet change during our 2 week stay, but no mid-stay apartment cleaning. - The kitchen knife was not sharp (therefore dangerous) and we were told there was no steel to sharpen it; and no other knife available. - There should be dishes to go in the oven. - In our apartment there were no essentials left over from previous guests: no salt, pepper, oil, sugar, dried herbs, etc. This has happened in all other apartments we have rented. Do the cleaning staff dispose of everything left behind? I agree perishables should be thrown away but the non-perishables? - There should be an indoor area where youngsters could meet up to play babyfoot, etc. - The gravel in the car park is much too deep.

Review 64:- Excellent location; in walking distance to port and old city, opposite supermarket. - Our apartment was very comfortable with excellent view towards Porto-Vecchio. - Great pool; very clean water - Very friendly pool staff. - Maintenance staff very quick to respond. - Not much drinking around the pool. - We were lent a kettle.

Review 65:Beds too hard. Would love to play on the grass

Review 66:Amazing location. Walking distance from marina shops and restaurants and the old town. Very close to the amazing beaches. Very new accomodation. Lovely pool.

Review 67:The reception is not really helpful. The automatic gate of the residence is a little bit temperemental

Review 68:Nice place to stay for the money you are spending on. The rooms are quite new with the a minimalist decoration and you can enjoy a big balcony at night.The hotel has a wide swimming pool with a pool bar. Besides you are next to a supermarket, 5 mns walk from the port and 10 mns driving from Santa Giulia Bay and Palombaggia beach.

Review 69:Minor point: Linen changed weekly, but rooms only scheduled for cleaning on exit after a fortnight. Might I suggest a weekly apartment clean at the same time as the linen change? A minor quibble, as the apartment was very clean on arival and was easy to maintain; brooms were supplied to sweep away beach sand etc.!

Review 70:Extremely friendly and helpful receptionists. Cleaners and gardeners very hard working and polite. The gardeners maintained beautiful grounds with lovely flora.Lovely room overlooking Old Town and mountains. Superb pool with plenty of sunbeds and parasols. A short walk to the harbour. Supermarket literally over the road. What's not to like?

Review 71:Personnel at reception not very friendly.

Review 72:Good location, great facilities.

Review 73:Nothing

Review 74:Size of property and balcony

Review 75:Wifi was awful! And a visitor note take insect repellent

Review 92:Bed Lightening

Review 93:Location Infrastructure Tranquil

Review 94:Good location. Nice apartment.

Review 96:Everything is new and clean.

Review 97:Beds

Review 98:No kettle. No handrail on staircase Uncomfortable mattress

Review 99:Excellent pool, garden and lawn Proximity to town and supermarket

Review 100:Silly rikes like "don't Walk on the grass".

Review 101:The staff, the pool, the big apartment, the balcony.

Review 102:Kids jumping on my head in the swimming pool even though it was forbidden according to the rules

Review 103:Everything

Review 104:Great location, fantastic pool, and the apartement was also great. We will go back definitely. There are towels in the room free, inspite of the fact, that you can read on the booking.com

Review 105:one of the topfloor bedrooms has a roof beam that is too low and I hit my head on it several times. The bedroom needs re-configuring to mitigate this.

Review 106:spacious apartment nice pool large balcony with electric BBQ close to marina & town

Review 107:Anything

Review 108:Our stay at Salina Bay was as enjoyable as always. We are always renting one of the spacious appartments with large terrace and splendid view on the last floor. These appartments have everything included ( iron, kettle, hairdryer, nespresso machine, towels, cleaning kit, washing mashine). The complex is as immaculate and well maintained as it was 3 years ago when we stayed there for the first time. Even though we are travelling with children we are not set off by the "strict rules" that apply (no ball play in the pool, no stepping on the lawn etc). They contribute to the calm and elegance of this resort and make the stay more enjoyable for everybody.

Review 109:Expensive (165 € pro night without breaKfast).

Review 110:Spotless clean, nice pool area, good equipted kitchen incl coffee maker, fridge... big balkony (logia), we had garden view, parking lot infront the house, supermarket at the entrance, 5 min walk to harbour, 15 min walk to old town.

Review 111:Very helpfull staff. Location is nice and quiet. Close to old town, harbor and grocery store. Beautiful and very clean apartments. Short driving distance to beaches.

Review 112:Absolutely nothing!

Review 113:Loved everything about Salina Bay. It was impeccable in every way. The apartment was great. SO clean, well appointed,fully equipped & the location was perfect. The pool was beautiful & the staff very helpful.

Review 114:Towels are not included in the room price, but are available at check-infor €5 per person. Soap and shampoo are also not supplied. This was moreof a surprise than an annoyance and did not detract from a veryenjoyable stay.

Review 115:The staff was very friendly and spoke English we'll. The apartmentwas very modern, well equipped and spacious. The terrace was huge with anice view of the mountains - even on the garden side. The wifi wasexcellent. There was a very nice supermarket just outside of theproperty that was handy for an apartment-style resort. The pool andgrounds were beautifully maintained.

Review 116:We were very impressed with the apartments at Salina Bay. The residence and grounds are kept in immaculate condition and the pool is lovely. Great location for exploring the beautiful Island of Corsica. Receptionists very helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Review 117:You have to pay for your bath towels per set ( hand and bath) and can only get them from the front desk, washing the dishes (and running the dishwasher) is a requirement, but they do not provide any sink soap, dishwasher soap, sponge nor dish towel with which to do it. Ridiculous!

Review 118:Liked the location , security ( door on the apartment is like fort Knox), and cleanliness of apartment.

Review 119:Nothing extra in the apartment ie. toilet paper, towels, hairdryer, soap all needed to be provided by yourself. I guess this can be normal in an apartment hotel, but I have stayed in rented flats and other apartment hotels before and this was the first time that these things were not provided. Minor detail but bear in mind when packing for the trip.

Review 120:Very nice, clean, modern rooms with a lot of space. Good location in walking distance from the harbour. Supermarket next to the apartments so getting your own groceries was easy. Parking right outside the apartment. Beautiful swimming pool area. Wifi ok.

Review 121:The main thing we did not like were the beds (really not good at all). Beside that the Wifi was lost because off lightning and this was not repaired within the last 5 days of our stay.

Review 122:The location close to the harbor was good. The resort was very clean and staff was speaking good English and very helpfull. Nice swimmingpool and enough space around it. The appartment itself was nice and modern looking with a good size balcony.

Review 123:The location was a bit dull. Close to the city and harbour, but you need to go by car to the beach. Very busy area with lots of traffic. The Residence has in my opinion too many regulations. No walking on the grass, no playing with ball in the pool, do not hang your towel over the terrasse rail etc.

Review 124:Very clean and well kept.Fresh and new apartments. Close to the supermarket + boulang

Review 125:As I said: no services at all, no cleaning of the apartment, difficulty to do any washing,only one machine which you have to pay, for 20 apartments and it doesn't work properly, no towels, toilet paper, etc., etc. offer. The apartments are empty and this is not what you expect on a holiday's resort. We are very disappointed.

Review 126:We liked the place itself but it offers nothing els than the building; no cleaning inside, no services at all; this is not what you want when you go on holidays.

Review 127:They had lots of rules, but having said this, it meant that everyone could enjoy their stay, but it was written in a very militant style.

Review 128:It was spacious and imaculate, I was very impressed by the facilities. I would highly recommend this as aplace to stay.

Review 129:most of week no one next door, however for the last 2 days a family moved in with young children and it was very noisy in our sitting area. Didn't spoil the holiday as couldn't hear them from the bedrooms.

Review 130:Lovely clean and spacious apartment. We had a deluxe 2 bedroom overlooking the pool.The staff at reception were most helpful.

Review 131:If I had to make a negative comment, and it is difficult to do, then it would be that the only facility on site is a swimming pool. If you wanted lunch or a snack then you either return to your apartment or go out. It would be convenient to have a snack bar or restaurant on site. Apart from this there is nothing else that is negative about the place.

Review 132:The apartments were very spacious and the residence was extremely well situated. The staff were superb and very, very helpful. We are already looking to return next year.

Review 133:No kettle even though I requested one (used a pan to boil water). No coffee machine. Hot water in shower tended to go cold after 3 showers, one of us always ended up with a cold shower! Pool, although nice, could have benefitted from heating slightly!!

Review 134:Very clean apartments. Dishwasher, oven & hob & microwave in kitchenette, although only ate breakfast in apartment. Two shower rooms, took a 6 person suite even though only 4 of us. Terrace area was huge and had table and 6 chairs as well as wicker settee. Large pool and sun area where you could buy drinks and ice cream.

Review 135:The lack of basic facilities provided in the apartment such as towels, bin bags, soap, dish washing tablet or even toilet paper was rather appalling for a luxury apartment.

Review 136:The location was very good and the apartment was very clean and well-maintained.
