If you're planning a well-earned family holiday this year, one way to keep your budget in check is on an all-inclusive holiday. And nobody does all-inclusive quite like Club Med - and they just so happen to have a collection of seriously impressive family-friendly Club Med resorts, to cater to your every whim. Flights, transfers, activities, childcare and experiences are all taken care of. A Club Med break is brilliant for active families that like a bit of luxury.
You'll be able to try your hand at activities like paddle-boarding, kite-surfing, tennis, sailing and golf, and you can expect top-notch accommodation, facilities and food options at each resort. When choosing a family holiday there's nothing better than a first-hand recommendation and there are plenty of Mumsnetters that have tried and tested Club Med beach resorts in destinations far and wide.
Here are the best Club Med beach resorts, as recommended by families that have stayed there. For an escape from reality, book into this sprawling resort between La Rochelle and Bordeaux on France's southwest coast. Close to the beach, forests and vineyards, it's a great resort if you love the idea of lounging on the beach, but easily get bored - the city of Bordeaux is close enough for a day trip and there are local salt marshes to explore.
There are two restaurants - one of which is divided into six different dining areas, and there are three bars, including a quiet pool bar if you want to read, with a glass of wine in hand. Fresh smoothies are on offer too for a health hit, while guests praise fresh seafood as a highlight, particularly oysters and langoustines. The Algarve has a reputation for classic family beach escapes, and this location in the popular Albufeira area embodies that ethos, with rocky beaches melting into leafy forests, with golf par for the course.
