Anyone Done Club Med?

[moonblushtomato]

It looks great albeit very very pricey!!

Is it worth it and what do you get for your money?

Depends where and what age kids.
Food and drink are lovely and generally activities great (been to both summer one and ski one).

It is very French (which I have no problem
With) but does means kids clubs can have heavy French presence in staff/other kids which for smaller kids may be an issue.

We used it loads til they badly let us down about 4 weeks before a holiday (resort was closed for week we wanted to go and their alternatives weren't great).

We have been to two, one in Hammamet and one in Turkey, Beldi, and are off to Palmiye in Turkey in 7 weeks time! We love it as it means my very sporty boy can go off and try loads of stuff without wearing me out and my little girl enjoys making new friends too. Sometimes the language can be a bit of a problem but most of the time its a nice thing that not everyone is English!

The food has always been good with lots of variety and the rooms are mostly ok, we swapped last year as the one we were allocated I found too dark and bad layout but they swapped us with no worries straight away.

I like to relax and have time off from cooking and cleaning etc so for me the holiday is worth stretching the budget. I book through an agent who has always done me a good deal.

We have been self catering to villas etc but spent a fortune on food and the kids are still at the age where they need entertaining and with the cooking, cleaning and shopping I would come back as knackered as I was when I went!
