It was my first time here in miches and I had the best time. I'd like to thank my two teens club G.O Sarah and Richard. Sarah is so energetic and it motivates me to participate and Richard is so kind and great at what he does. A special thank to the circus team as well such as Tammy, nacho, Joel and michael!

A wonderful stay at Michés!
It’s our third time visiting Club Med Michés and it’s still our favourite Club Med resort! Some highlights this time:
- again the baby club is just fantastic here. A huge thank you to William and Servane, our children adored you both and we were so happy to leave our children in your care. Thank you also to Misha, Sherline, Caina, Cruz, Mymy, Dary & Fabiola for looking after Florence.
- our room was fantastic, a great size, well kept and cleaned and a great location - near the beach and the kids club, also right opposite a baby room to help us prepare bottles etc.
- we love the zen pool - such a beautiful space, clean and great drinks. There was a bit of noise from nearby building works but nothing too bad.
- transfers were great and club med provided baby seats both ways - this was feedback we had provided before so great to see that has improved.
A few minor points to keep in mind: - there were quite a few mosquitos and sand flies about this time and we were both bitten quite a lot. We haven’t experienced this the two times we’ve been prior (perhaps because there was a bit more rain this time). Because of this, we hadn’t packed anything to deal with bites so we ended up paying $140 for basic antihistamine tablets and hydrocortisone cream (both of which would be a few dollars/ euros/ pounds at home). Highly recommend brining your own! I think the on-site doctors at Miches is great, but it was disappointing that they are charging such inflated prices for such basic products.
- we loved the tennis courts and the tennis team are great, but we found a lot of the balls provided to be quite flat. Perhaps bring a few from home if you are a keen tennis player!
All in all we had a fantastic time and look forward to returning in the future!

Wonderful memories and an amazing team!
We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay at Michès. The beach is breathtaking, the activities are great and the staff go above and beyond to make guests feel comfortable. Our children especially loved the Mini Club. A big thank you to Jiji for making their days so much fun with her energy, kindness and dedication. We are leaving with wonderful memories and definitely recommend this resort!
