A place lulled by the soothing melody of the Algarve

The Club Med Da Balaia Resort is located thirty kilometres from Faro, on Portugal’s southern coast. The moment you arrive, feel the air hum with Fado melodies. Gaze at the two red cliffs jutting out into the Atlantic sea. To the west, the bedrooms, tennis courts and main pool form the heart of this all-inclusive Resort. To the east, the Zen pool is camouflaged by pine trees with a stunning view on the flying trapeze and the blond beach of Maria Luísa. Stimulate your taste buds at the Vasco Gourmet Lounge by trying the braised vegetables and creamy pastéis de nata tarts.

Amazing service, food and views!

This is our 6th Club and our favorite one yet and we least expected it! The location is amazing and the club is mostly renovated and done very nicely. The food and bar are run so well and there is so much room that it never feels crowded in either. Now for the service…Gianni runs such a good club and shows up everywhere with a smile on his face.

Laurine, both Maxime’s, Helena and Louis were amazing…loved our daughter so much and showed the kids a great time. Not only did Louis take care of the kids but his real skill is lunch time crazy signs…the BEST!

Lucas at the zen pool had great vibes and makes the best fresh juices and is so pleasant to talk too!

Overall, new favorite Club and we can’t wait to return.

Enjoyed the sea views, the lovely beach, tennis, golf practice, archery.
I never dreamt I’d be able to do aqua aerobics with my husband but he now thinks it’s quite the workout! I loved the zen area and swimming close to frogs! Great to restart yoga!
Thank you for a great
