What a wonderful experience! From the minute we arrived, to the minute we left, we were treated so wonderfully by the Martinhal staff!
We traveled from Hawaii to Lisbon over Christmas with our three children, and Martinhal was our first stop. Upon arriving, we were greeted warmly and our children were ushered into the kids club while we filled out paperwork. They even had backpacks filled with toys waiting for them. My 7 year old was given a backpack for older kids, but was sad that she did not receive a stuffed animal in her bag like her little sister, and the staff immediately gave her a second backpack, complete with stuffed animal, and let her keep the first bag.
Our room already had a baby cot set up upon arrival, with additional baby amenities waiting for us. It took 30 hours for us to travel to Portugal from Hawaii, and it was so amazing to have the room ready to go as soon as arrived so everyone could take a nap. The room was very spacious with a kitchen for cooking and some supplies already stocked in the fridge, and free flip flops for everyone in the family (even the baby). The location was wonderful with plenty of places within walking distance nearby. Breakfast was also amazing, with a wide variety of food, fruits, cheeses, breads, sparkling wine, eggs, bacon, custom-made omelets, etc.
We used the kids disco for a date night for our oldest two, and also used the free babysitting service during the day. We also used a nanny for our 6 month old for a date night, and she was wonderful. Our baby went right to sleep with her, and was asleep when we arrived home.
My only regret is that we did not spend more of our trip at Martinhal. We will always remember this trip and hope we can find a way back soon!
