The Club Med difference

Let us introduce all-inclusive vacations

All-inclusive vacations

At Club Med, we not only invented the idea of the all-inclusive vacation, we are still reinventing and redefining the concept to give everyone - adults and children alike - the most invigorating vacations imaginable.

The dream dates back to 1950 when what we have now become was just the vision of a former water polo champion from Belgium. What Gérard Blitz imagined was luxury all-inclusive vacations in places where happiness could be created without any hassle.

His idea was to offer people all-inclusive vacations as a new kind of shared experience where you can unwind and enjoy a unique type of vacation with everything imaginable included in the price at resorts in some of the world’s most beautiful locations.

Fast forward 71 years and we now have more than 70 premium resorts - we call them villages - throughout the world from the Alps to Africa, Asia and the Americas.

Our Gentils Organisateurs or Gentle Organizers (GOs), as our team are known, now number 14,000 and come to us from about 100 different nationalities. Resort managers are called chefs de village or Village Chiefs, by the way.

We make sure all our guests - who we call Great Members - feel well looked after. All we encourage you to do is reconnect and unwind with our packages. They include every ingredient anyone could ask for to enjoy a really dreamy break from everyday life.

What is an all-inclusive vacation?

When you book an all-inclusive vacation, you hand over responsibility to us for almost everything -from transportation (including transfers) to accommodation, the cooking of your delicious food, the pouring of your drinks, organizing your entertainment and laying on a wealth of sports and recreational activity for you to enjoy.
We also go that extra mile to arrange other personal services for you and your kids to make all-inclusive family vacations as much fun as possible. We even provide free Wi-Fi.
With our all-inclusive vacations for couples and families, our aim is to a total hassle free experience whether that be a winter sports or summer and winter sun vacation.
One booking is all that is needed to take care of everything. We quite simply extract all the stress and replace it with opportunities to happily enjoy a renewed spontaneity in your life. All you have to do is decide where and when to go and then choose what to pack.
Visiting one of our resorts is a treat. This is vacationing without compromise. With everything included in the price, everyone in the party can rest assured there will be something for everyone. There are sports to work up a sweat and sun loungers to sleep off any exertion, however slight!
Choose to lie on the warmest, golden sands or opt to romp on the chilliest snow white slopes of France, Italy or Switzerland.

Enjoy an all-inclusive sun vacation

What we offer does not change whether you're seeking a summer vacation where the sun is guaranteed, or you feel the need to escape the winter's cold weather with a break in the tropics.

Our range of all-inclusive vacations in the sunshine offers something for everyone - whatever the time of year.

If you feel in the need of some action, though, we can offer you any number of vacations in the sun with a choice of energetic water and land-based sports, that could cost someone a fortune on their own, if they were not part of one of our all-inclusive vacations.

Sipping cocktails or water skiing?

With so many resorts in so many countries, our guests can even choose the style of beach they fancy. Perhaps you would like the singeing white sands of the Bahamas and the Maldives' crystal blue waters.

At Club Med Columbus Isle, overlooking Bonefish Bay Beach, for example, you could be sipping a cocktail and basking in the sun on a white sandy beach - in February!

Alternatively, if you fancy water skiing then the island of Evia on the Aegean may appeal.

What could be better, whether it's winter or summer sun you seek? Relaxing on the beach of your choice and enjoying the time without crowds, under the best of the weather. Bliss!

Discover our flying trapeze

One activity that attracts a lot of attention is the flying trapeze. This combines balance and aerobatics and seems to fascinate onlookers as well as participants. The latter, who wear a protective harness and are supported by a safety net, are taught the finer points of "catch" (the moment when a flyer leaves the fly bar and is grabbed by another performer, the catcher, on a second piece of equipment) in some of the world's most beautiful locations. These include Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, La Plantation d'Albion in Mauritius and Portugal's Da Balaia.

The circus-themed experience

If this is the sort of activity that appeals to you, we don't stop there. We have created a circus-themed experience. Here guests can learn the high bungee, tightrope, trampoline and aerial acrobatics while hanging from a fabric, known as aerial silk. Staged at the Dominican Republic's Punta Cana resort the whole family can get involved. It also features juggling, mask painting, dance and percussion with the aim of opening the mind to the body's capabilities.
