Try to help out
Never had any expectations of tipping anyone or saw anyone else doing so. Although when we were at Nabuel another time, dh tipped a lovely waiter who always looked out for us and gave us the same table as we had met up with another family. But that was the only time ( and we'd been the year before too)
At meal times you help yourself to bottles of wine from the cabinets. Drinks for kids too. Or you can purchase fancier ones at dinner (never felt the need free bottles worked every time!) You can choose to sit at a bigger table so will meet new folks or at a table by yourself- we did a bit of both. The Club med staff will come and join you- they are normally very chatty and intersting from all over the world.
We stayed in a bungalow too- was great- roomier than the hotel rooms.
You can get towels free every day, although we always take our own beach ones too.
The kids can eat with the kids club and give you peace (ours never did) or eat early with you, or eat at regular times with you. You can pay for one of the kid staff to babysit in your room- never tried it.
There is entertainment every night in a theatre, starting at 9.30 which we went to often. When ds was younger one of us would go with dd and the other would stay back in the room with ds. We often saw others leaving the children alone in the rooms and going out- just going back to check at the door for noise!
The children will come back saying bonjour and bonsoir as everyone says this- very friendly, also bon appetit!
We've always gone in October holidays and had lovely weather in the 80s, maybe needing a cardi at night. So don't know how hot it'll be when you go.
Hope that helps you - also we we go back in a mo!
