Pioneers of the all-inclusive holiday concept, Club Med promises you all the right ingredients for your dream escape, whether you’re looking for a fun-filled family getaway, a break with friends or a romantic couple’s retreat.

It comes with full-board gourmet cuisine, premium drinks and open bars, tempting snacks, a wealth of land and water sports, exciting daily and nightly entertainment for the whole family, excellent kids’ clubs and so much more besides. It’s absolutely all included in the package with Club Med.

Perched on top of stunning red sea cliffs and offering picture-perfect views over Portugal’s glorious Algarve coastline, the all-inclusive Club Med Da Balaia is a veritable family paradise with activities for all ages to enjoy.

I have always known Club Med to provide amazing activities and entertainment. Dh Balaia does not disappoint. Featuring a pitch and putt golf course and access to neighbouring courses, as well as a fitness centre, tennis, football, flying trapeze, archery, aqua aerobics and much more besides, you’ll never be short of things to do.

For more relaxing pursuits, lounge by the beautiful resort pool, bask in the sunshine on one of the best beaches in all of Portugal or enjoy a stroll along the hidden coves that dot this spectacular stretch of coastline.

TRAVEL COUNSELLORS: Enjoy a family holiday in Jamaica

If you’re looking for some well-deserved relaxation time, the adults-only Zen Zone offers a truly amazing experience. Overlooking the shimmering waters of the Atlantic Sea, relax poolside with your favourite cocktail in hand and feel the stresses and strains of daily life start to ebb away.

The beauty of a Club Med holiday is that all your meals and snacks are included. The Balaïa is the resort’s main restaurant, where you can enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner from a buffet of international cuisine; all with stunning views of the sea and pool, while the new Vasco Gourmet Lounge is the perfect place for a late breakfast, a laid-back lunch or some delicious sweet and savoury snacks.

After dinner, the resort really comes alive with creative cabaret in the theatre, exciting theme nights in the bar and dancing in the night club.

Surrounded by lush vegetation, the guestrooms at Da Balaia are spread over three buildings.

Enjoy the seaview from the Belem and Coimbra buildings, or opt for the Lisboa building and breathe in the fresh Atlantic air as you relax on your balcony.
