We have friend that went to the Ocean Club last year with twins of 2 years, and loved it. The atmosphere was relaxed, English speaking staff and qualified child care team. The Ocean Club is part of a larger complex and not exclusively Mark Warner, although their services such as the creche and babysitting were available, even if you were eating out in the complex. They said that it was a great holiday for the kids, and gave them a rare chance to relax.

I don't know how this resort has been affected by the abduction of Madeleine McCann in May from the Ocean Club, or Praia da Luz itself? I think we would find it difficult to relax there.
