Pool the size of a bath tub, poor quality kitchen equipment (not including cooker!), Not as much luxury as they made out. No Gym facility(they have fallen out with the hotel) No heated pool for my 10 month old( Obviously I was fine in the cold pool!) All of the above I would normally think someone who had a poor holiday would write but to be honest it was not poor it was lovely. It was just that the Villa salobre makes out it is the height of luxury villa holidays and it simply is not it is .clean and usable well located for getting to the other lovely areas around (like Porto Mogan)

The villas are certainly pretty and well maintained but also lack character. We certainly didn't think the money we paid reflected the supposed luxury of the villa, although overall it was ok.
You certainly need a car to get anywhere in this resort including reception or mini market. Also don't rely on watching TV, if you are not a Spanish speaker, as all channels catered to Spanish viewers only. It is also not worth it renting the modem for €10 per day, as the connection speed is terrible. The restaurant is of average standard with prices reflecting the locality, i.e. high!

On the plus side, the complex is very quiet, sometimes too much so and the gardens are lovely to look at.
I would not go there again, instead, I'd rent a villa somewhere else, with easier access to Maspalomas.
We did not use the golf course, as it seemed too expensive.

Stayed at Salobre Golf Villa.The villa was great so far as furnishings,pool etc. except facing NE it received little sun on pool and front(although this is mid-winter so might be different in summer). The golf course was no more than adequate for holiday golf- one can find municipal courses in the UK which are as pretty or as challenging AND wildly over-priced at over 100 Euros a round with only a small reduction for juniors. Certainly not worth the money and I don't think any serious golfer would disagree. I am a 21 handicap hacker but my 2 handicap son-in-law emphatically agrees and he frequently plays in UK Europe and the US so has the experience to back up his opinions. Nor is cost a problem for him - he just does not like to be ripped off with mediocre services.If anyone thinks this a great course I would hate to see the courses they usually play on.
Besides the main South Course we sampled the new North Course. What a let-down! Condition - very poor and even dangerous to negotiate in the buggy

I have stayed at ALL the Sheraton properties in the Canarias and La Salobre is my favorite! I LOVE this place for the peace and quiet-complete tranquility. I was desperate to escape the insanity of Madrid for 3 nights and caught a cheap flight and a great deal at this hotel. As an SPG member-was given an upgrade to a suite-wonderful staff. My room was a haven after my small cramped Madrid apt. Fantastic separate huge bathtub with a water view, separate living and bedroom. Great bed, great products, TV's in both rooms-private terrace with sun loungers.
Gran Canaria is filled with mega tourist kinda run down beach hotels piled on top of each other. La Salobre is up in the hills, nice breezes, several wonderful swimming pools, view of the golf course, 3 restaurants.
I think this is a bit of an undiscovered gem in the Canarias. Gran Canaria was my last to visit, because of the not very good reviews. I'm so glad that it's relatively inexpensive! Of course the other islands may have more natural sights to see-but for a quick serene break that's affordable-this hotel and island is exactly thatl. I didn't leave the entire time I was there-I loved it.
