Some Holiday Options at Belambra

As the number one holiday club in France, Belambra has 58 resorts set in some of the most stunningly beautiful locations around France and Corsica. From the snow-swept peaks of the Pyrenees down to the sand-flanked banks of the Azure Coast and through the vineyard-covered valleys of the French countryside, an array of residences are available to holidaymakers in search of a slice of paradise. Whether travelling with a baby, as a family, in a couple or large party, the range of well-appointed accommodation provides for all needs and offer self-catering, half-board, full-board and all-inclusive options.


Riviera Beach Club

Owing to their impressive surroundings, each resort offers guests the best in outdoor activities. The newly refurbished Riviera Beach Club in the Giens peninsula on France’s famed southern coast is surrounded by a beautiful eight-hectare pine forest and overlooks a sandy shore and turquoise sea. The Water Sports Centre organises a variety of activities such as sailing, windsurfing, diving, funboarding and kite surfing, while the on-site Athlé Santé activities keep fitness buffs occupied with jogging, Nordic walking, stretching and more.

Belambra's Île de Ré club Saint-Martin is located at the heart of the Île de Ré with a lush oasis for a peaceful and relaxing summer holiday. The club has its own huge swimming pool for the exclusive use of guests, and numerous footpaths and cycle paths from the club offer the perfect way to discover the 'Île blanche'.

Belambra's most recently renovated property at Saint Paul de Vence on the Côte d’Azur re-opened this summer following a 12 month refurbishment project. At the heart of the French Riviera, Les Oliviers now features refurbished and redesigned communal areas, including a re-designed dining area and modern air-conditioned accommodation with patios and balconies. Guests can also enjoy 3 separate swimming pools at the edge of a pine forest.


The kid's club activities

The kids' clubs are air-conditioned all day for added comfort whilst adults can participate in activities led by 'Athlé Santé' coaches from the FFA (French Athletics Federation) and new choreographed fitness programmes by Les Mills™. In total, visitors can choose from up to 24 different activities per day including 10 sporting activities.


Belambra's Jardins de la Balme in the iconic Alps ski area, Val d’Isère, has 300 kilometres of pistes and the biggest snow park in Europe right on its doorstep. Here, Belambra offers guided snowshoe excursions, cross-country skiing, evening walks and snowmobile outings to all those set on making the most of the snow. For beginners, there’s a Ski Service option that offers official ski school lessons, as well as lift passes and equipment hire.
