Frequently Asked Questions
G.O stands for Gentil Organisateur. They are the team members who bring the resort to life: sports instructors, kids' club leaders, front desk staff and performers in the evening shows. They often share meals with guests and give Club Med its warm, playful atmosphere.
G.M stands for Gentil Membre: that is you, the guest. The term dates back to Club Med's early days, when every guest became a member of a club. From your very first booking you are a G.M, and you join the Great Members loyalty program, which follows your stays year after year.
The resort's director, and much more than a manager. He or she welcomes guests, makes sure the week goes well, goes from table to table at dinner and often introduces the evening show. Many regulars even choose their next stay according to a Chef de Village they enjoyed.
They are Club Med's signature dance routines, performed by the G.O team and picked up by guests on the dance floor, often early in the evening. They take a few minutes to learn, and children love them. Many families still dance them at home in the living room when they miss the week.
Entirely up to you, and always invited. The G.O team suggests, and everyone picks their own pace: some go from lesson to tournament to show, others spend the week between the beach and a book. Both ways of living the resort are welcome, which is what makes the atmosphere pleasant for everyone.
The teams are international, and French and English are the common languages in most Resorts, often along with the local language. In the French Caribbean Resorts, at Club Med Québec Charlevoix and in Europe, French is widely spoken. Your advisor tells you the Resorts where you will most easily be served in French.
The mood is relaxed during the day. In the evening, slightly smarter attire is customary at the main restaurant, and some evenings have a colour or style theme announced in the program. Pack something white and a colourful touch: you will be ready for most themed nights.
Yes, and it is a very popular option for birthdays, family reunions and trips with friends. The Mini Group offer, shown on our promotions page, adds a discount when six or more adults travel together. Your advisor books neighbouring rooms when possible and coordinates everyone's flights.
Yes, especially in an Exclusive Collection Resort or Exclusive Collection space, quieter and more intimate. The Indian Ocean Resorts, such as La Plantation d'Albion in Mauritius, are very popular with newlyweds. Mention the occasion to your advisor: they pass it on to the Resort with your file.
Club Med operates nearly 70 Premium and Exclusive Collection Resorts, plus the sailing ship Club Med 2. They are found in the Caribbean, Mexico, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, the Indian Ocean and in Quebec, with Club Med Québec Charlevoix a few hours' drive from Montreal.
