We just came back from Phuket this morning and I thought it would be ideal to do a "Travel Tuesday" post!
We put up at Club Med during our stay and the kids enjoyed themselves at the Mini Club and Petite Club so much!
Kids 4-7 go to Mini Club (Free)
Children below 4 go to Petite Club (chargeable at 1900 baht per full day)
Club opening hours are 0830am - 4:45pm.
Additional hours that you require after the Club closes will be charged at 100 baht/ hour for a babysitter.

| Checking out the Mini Club was the first thing we did after dumping our suitcases in the room! |
 |
| After Adam and Ashton went to the Mini Club, we went around the resort and to nearby Kata beach to recce our surroundings. |
Did pretty awesome things on the first day like climb a tree.....
and Parasailing...
After hanging out at the beach, we went back to the resort at 4pm for the Mini Club kids party.
 |
| The water slide was fun! Both boys went for it for 2 rounds. |
 |
| Our kids more happening than us - having a swell time at their foam party while parents could only stay on the outside of the foam pit to watch.. LOL |

| Adam made a new friend, Hayden, a fellow Singaporean boy from Opera Estate Primary :) |
We have been to many holidays with the kids the past several years and I can tell you, anywhere with sun, sand, and copious amounts of water are the perfect ingredients for a Happy Family Vacation recipe!
As a sidenote, however, the service at Club Med Phuket falls short of some of the resorts and hotels we have been to, for eg. Shangri-La Cebu, W and Westin hotels.
For an instance, check out timing is at 11:00am instead of the largely universal 12noon, and requests for late check-outs are charged at 300 baht per hour per room (Club Med charges per pax instead of per room, so for a family of 4 like us, we were given 2 rooms)
Other than that, we were quite happy with everything else - 3 square meals provided in the resort, free alcohol and drinks. Yay to all you alcoholic anonymous out there! :)
Their rooms also do not come with toiletries and terry cloth slippers, and I understand it is part of their committment to reduce environmental waste, so if you are a first-time guest to Club Med, please bring along toiletries.
