More than 140 travel professionals in Montreal and Québec City heard all about the latest developments at several Club Med properties in the Caribbean, just in time for the winter season.

Advisors also had a chance to connect with Club Med leadership.

The three events put Martinique’s Club Med Les Boucaniers and Guadeloupe’s Club Med La Caravelle in the spotlight, along with two upcoming North American resort openings.

Club Med execs on hand included Gilles Meyer, Vice President of Operations, EMEA; Ruben Manrique, Chef de Village at Club Med Les Boucaniers; and Jérémy Le Gac, Chef de Village at Club Med La Caravelle.

“We wanted to create a genuine opportunity to connect with our partners, rather than simply deliver a product presentation,” said André Gasparini, Club Med’s BDM for Quebec and the Outaouais region. “Having our Chefs de Village and Vice President of Operations with us gave advisors direct access to the people who work with the product every day. That’s a tremendous added value for them.”

What's New in the French Caribbean

At Club Med Les Boucaniers in Martinique, the transformation continues following a complete renovation in 2023-2024.

Updates include six padel courts, a redesigned reception area and resort centre, renovations to the Club Med Spa by Payot and main bar, and a new adults-only Zen Oasis. Scheduled to open Oct. 31, the Zen Oasis will feature new rooms and suites, a swimming pool and a dedicated relaxation area.

Meanwhile, Club Med La Caravelle in Guadeloupe continues to cater to families with Mini Splash, water sports and land-based activities. There’s also a Zen Oasis with an infinity pool for adults looking for some quiet time.

Club Med also shared its plans for Club Med Sainte-Croix, scheduled for 2027, and Club Med Tremblant, expected in 2028. The two projects will join a portfolio of more than 60 resorts worldwide.

For Nathan Scarazzati, Club Med’s Sales Director for Quebec, the gatherings were also about bringing the company’s resort culture to its trade relationships.

“Friendliness and multiculturalism are core Club Med values. These opportunities to connect and share experiences with our partners allow us to build relationships that go far beyond a simple product presentation,” said Scarazzati.
