Da Balaia PORTUGAL

This was a beautiful place. The AC was anemic in the heat. The beach was good, the sea stunning. The wading pool was cold (nice) and the big pool warmer. In the summer when we were there, there was an abundance of young children. There are programs the keep them occupied, but not at mealtimes.

I would rate the rooms as excellent if they had better cooling. The location is not super accessible, but not worse than the Caribbean.

A fabulous two week holiday in a lovely resort with great food and endless activities to keep everyone happy! The GOs in the kids club were brilliant, the golf lessons with Florian and Elena were really enjoyable and the white party was always great fun. The total highlight was the circus team of Sven, Louna, Ambre, Appoline and Angelique who taught our family amazing trapeze skills every day for the 2 weeks, and were a huge part of what made our holiday so enjoyable. We will definitely be back.

We had the most amazing time it was our first family holiday with our twins and I was very nervous to travel with them but thanks to the Kids Club and in particular people like Stitch, Christiano and Gladys who work there and who don’t just pretend to play with the kids because it’s their job but who actually truly want to be with the children and who put 100% of themselves into being with them…my children loved every moment and that gave us a break and meant we had the best time. The service there was unbelievable. Florian giving the golf lessons was also brilliant!! I would go to this Club Med again in a heartbeat they were fabulous.

Magic week with the family. Food was excellent, staff friendly. The absolute highlight was the circus, which provided a unique experience. The circus team - Ambre, Louna, Sven, Angelique, Appoline - was incredible, both professional and warm. I feel lucky to have created special memories with them.

Super 9 days.

Kids club high standard as always.

Food really good at this venue

Gym was very dated and smelly - literally our only gripe.
