A week stay
4/5 • 2025/04/14Beautiful location, amazing food/dessert/cocktails, and great tennis classes.
The staff were very professional and courteous.
One area that I did not anticipate is that this Club Med in Portugal is mainly French speaking, including the staff and the visitors. It was more French speaking than the French cities such as Paris, Marseille and Nice that I visited. I suggest that the Club indicates clearly that French is the main language of communication, so we North Americans would take some extra advanced French lessons before visiting there!
Overall a good vacation and love the French entertainment!

Great resort all round
5/5 • 2025/04/14Fabulous food and superb staff and resort. We loved all of it. Only downside is that Club Med is still SO french, which means that young English children are not able to blend in. They are made to feel the odd ones out and that means they hate it / wouldn't partake. Such a shame as everything else was perfect.
