From thrilling water slides to playful splash areas for younger children, the park aims to provide endless fun, making it a must-visit for families vacationing in the Caribbean. In addition, a family-friendly food truck will soon be seen on the site, offering delicious snacks and drinks, ensuring that guests stay fueled for their adventures.
Renovations at Club Med Cancún
Meanwhile, Club Med Cancún is undergoing remarkable transformations to elevate its family offerings. This includes incorporating a Sports and Wellness Island and redesigning family-friendly spaces to reflect a blend of elegance and vibrant Mayan influences. Enhanced facilities like a Mayan-themed Splash Park and new mini-cinema promise to engage children of all ages. A new Baby Club Med has also been introduced, providing professional care for infants while allowing parents some time to relax, further enriching the family vacation experience.
European Resort Enhancements
Club Med Gregolimano
In Greece, the Club Med Gregolimano has just completed a $32 million renovation. This update includes eco-friendly enhancements that align with sustainability goals, such as thermal solar panels and 497 newly designed rooms which reflect Greek aesthetics. The resort’s latest wellness area will offer rejuvenation and relaxation with treatments using products from the renowned brand Sothys.
Club Med Serre Chevalier
In France's scenic Hautes-Alpes region, Club Med Serre Chevalier has also received a complete eco-friendly makeover. The resort's architecture pays homage to local heritage while providing direct access to skiing and winter sports. The new facilities prioritize sustainability with energy-efficient upgrades and charging stations for electric vehicles.
Record Growth and Commitment to Sustainability
Interestingly, Club Med is reporting record-breaking growth as it transitions towards a higher-end luxury market. With $1.25 billion in business volume achieved in the first half of 2024, the brand is seeing an upward trend in outdoor and luxury vacationing. This shift is further supported by a strategic renovation across its portfolio, moving all resorts to premium (4-star) and exclusive collections (5-star).
The commitment to sustainable tourism remains a strong focal point for the company. Club Med's Happy to Care program exemplifies this ethos, with 86% of its resorts currently holding the Green Globe certification. The company aims to reach 100% by 2025, striving to operate all its European resorts using low-carbon energy.
Looking Ahead
As Club Med looks to the future, it plans to maintain its innovative spirit while respecting the natural environments that surround each of its resorts. With new expansions in the pipeline, along with a focus on guest engagement, sustainability, and premium offerings, Club Med is set to redefine the family vacation experience in 2024 and beyond.
As the resorts continue to grow, one thing remains certain: Club Med is dedicated to creating remarkable memories for families looking for an all-inclusive getaway that marries luxury with adventure, while also safeguarding the beauty of its settings for generations to come.
