Club Med global expansion

Overview

In early July 2026, Club Med welcomed its first guests at the new Beach & Safari resort in South Africa, marking the rollout of its Premium Collection in the region. By the end of the month, the operator announced an accelerated international growth plan aimed at doubling its portfolio by 2035. The strategy, branded “Forever Young,” will add premium and exclusive resorts in South Africa, a Borneo location in Malaysia, and an Exclusive Collection property in Gramado, Brazil, with the latter slated for a 2027 opening. Existing flagship sites will also be renovated as Club Med seeks to attract higher‑spending travelers with enhanced wellness and technology‑driven experiences.
