Club Med
To the point From Mexico to the Maldives, here's an opportunity to discover some of the best Club Med locations around the world.

Many hotels and resorts today offer all-inclusive packages, but if there is a leader in all-inclusive vacations, it is Club Med!

This chain developed the all-inclusive concept and popularized it, where the price of a stay includes accommodation, meals, drinks, activities and entertainment, all in paradise destinations.

With its first vacation village in Alcudia, Spain, in 1950, Club Med‘s innovative concept quickly gained popularity, and the company continued to expand by opening new vacation villages around the world.

With their unmistakable GOs and unbeatable entertainment, Club Med offers memorable vacation experiences for the whole family. Some of them, however, are for adults only, such as Club Med Turkoise.

Around the world, each Club Med distinguishes itself by its unique atmosphere, exceptional service and quality facilities.

In addition to the rich program of activities offered on-site, Club Med organizes excursions and guided tours to help you discover the wonders of each destination.

These complexes also have different types of rooms adapted to the needs of families. Of these, family rooms generally offer a separate space for parents and children; family suites may include a separate room for parents and a living room; while connecting rooms are linked by an interior door.

Here is our selection of the best Club Meds that guarantee an exceptional stay.

Staying at Club Med with points

Club Med has its own loyalty program, the Great Members program, where you can earn points on your stays and by referring friends and family who also want to book at Club Med.

If you are not a regular customer, you can significantly reduce the cost of an all-inclusive trip or tour with reward points.

This companion article on all-inclusive travel savings shows you how to do this when it comes to all-inclusives.

This involves charging your Club Med reservation transaction to a credit card with which you can redeem your points to cover the amount spent (or a portion thereof).

Here are some examples of reward programs to use:

  • American Express Membership Rewards points: By applying your points to the amount spent yourself (every 10,000 points gives you $100 in credit)
  • Scene+: Reimburse the expense with your own points (each 10,000 Scene+ points gives $100 credit)
  • Aventura: By applying your points to the amount spent yourself while it is still in the “Pending credit card account” stage.
  • NBC Rewards: Use your NBC points to reimburse the expense (every 12,000 NBC points earns $100 credit).

Bookings made on the Canadian Club Med website will be billed in Canadian dollars regardless of destination, so there are no conversion fees.
