Who are we?

Club Med was founded in 1950 on the idea that the purpose of life is to be happy. The place to be happy is here. The moment to be happy is now.

Since then, our mission has been to create moments of happiness every day and share them with our guests, in nearly 70 Premium and Exclusive Collection Resorts located in the most beautiful destinations in the world.

To make this happen, we have something others don’t: the Club Med Spirit and our five core values of kindness, multiculturalism, responsibility, freedom and a pioneering spirit.

Today, Club Med is the world leader in premium all-inclusive holidays. We are more than 25,000 Gentle Organizers (G.O) and Gentle Employees (G.E) from over 110 nationalities and cultures, working in Resorts, offices or agencies, in more than 40 countries.
