Da Balaia stands on an ochre cliff in southern Portugal, overlooking a magnificent white sand beach and giving you direct access to the Atlantic. Caressed by the sea breeze, the Village allies sports and wellbeing in an outstanding setting.

It's a world to unwind in, naturally perfumed by the woody scents of parasol pines, olive trees and eucalyptus. Comfort and cosiness are everywhere, even in the reception area where marble floors and deep red walls set the tone.

This is a Club Med Village where families, golfers and Spa* enthusiasts live together in harmony.

More information will be available soon.
