Bali Indonesia

This was my family’s first-ever stay at Club Med, and it truly exceeded all our expectations. From the hospitality and activities to the incredible people who brought everything to life, our experience was nothing short of exceptional.

Despite being an all-inclusive resort, the variety and quality of food genuinely surprised us — there was no repetition, and every meal felt thoughtfully curated. The Chef de Village personally welcomed us on arrival, greeted guests at lunch and dinner daily, and was present at almost every event. The GO team truly embodied the spirit of Club Med — energetic, versatile, and sincere.

The restaurant team consistently delivered warm, attentive service. Executive Chef Ravin Balhoo and his team made the dining experience even more special by personally engaging guests and checking on dietary needs. Chef Prasantha and Chef Hadi deserve special mention for their excellent Indian cuisine and for going the extra mile by offering to prepare special dishes when we missed home-cooked meals. Even when we arrived late one morning, Chef Libin ensured impeccable service at the deck.

As first-time parents, we were initially nervous about sending our child to the Mini Kids Club, but the professionalism and care shown by the GOs quickly put us at ease. The activities were engaging and varied, and our child loved it so much that she asked to attend every single day.

The Sports GOs were equally impressive. Tawan made archery a fun family activity, while Zee went above and beyond by teaching us paddle tennis during his rest period.

Special Mentions

• Titi (Finance Department) – Though working behind the scenes, Titi made our stay incredibly special. Her friendliness, care, and genuine concern went far beyond her role. Even during her breaks, she took time to check in on us, and her infectious energy was loved by both adults and children alike.

• Andre (Bar Team) – Andre’s hospitality was outstanding. He remembered our names, drinks, and even our coffee and tea preferences. Serving every guest with a warm, genuine smile every day is no easy task — yet he made it look effortless.

• Zee – Beyond sports, Zee truly embodied the spirit of a GO. He built genuine connections with guests of all ages, checked in even after working hours, and made everyone feel welcome. The memories and friendships we formed with him will always be cherished.

Final Thoughts

Club Med Bali is not just about its beautiful location or all-inclusive offerings — it is truly about the people. The warmth, dedication, and genuine care shown by the team made our first Club Med experience unforgettable.

The staff here are like magical genies — always anticipating your needs. Need a towel? Done. Want a cocktail? Already on its way. They make you feel truly special.

We have never felt so warmly received anywhere else. We left with wonderful memories and are already looking forward to returning again.

Club Med has always been a Favourite family holiday for us through the years. However, this time in Bali it was made extremely special by GO Jay and Anitha who went out of their way to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. The love and care put into the suprise setup, cake and treatment was truly touching. The warmth and affection shown by Anitha and Jay made us feel like family to them.
We also had a great family badminton tournament and this was organized by the GO Emre who made the event fun, competitive and professional… another moment for the memory vault!!!!
The drinks and the service at the bar was elevated by GO Tiffany and her delicious Daiquri. Always ready to serve with a smile and gentle demeanor.
Another Favourite hideaway was the beach bar manned by GO Jeffery, great drinks, ambiance and even better chats.
Kudos to the buffet spread and especially to Head Chef Ravin and Chef Prasanth. The effort put into each dish is truly amazing.
Lastly, I cannot even begin to describe the Circus/Trapeze/Elements Show that was on par with Cirque du Soleil. Truly spectacular, the GO’s who performed and choreographed the entire show were superbly flawless and professional.
All of this is only possible with a remarkable Chief of the Village, Mr Housem, who was gracious, polite and lead by example.
Thank you to all the wonderful staff at Club Med Bali for making this trip unforgettable .

Club Med Bali Review – 9/10

Our stay at Club Med Bali was a wonderful experience and truly deserves a 9/10.

The food was exceptional. A special thank you to Executive Chef Ravin Balhoo for the brilliant Indian meals he prepared. He genuinely took our suggestions into consideration, and the meals were never repeated — always exotic, creative, and exciting. There was an impressive variety to cater for everyone, and he went out of his way to accommodate our South African palate, which made the dining experience feel personal and thoughtful. The pani puri was absolutely delectable and a definite highlight. The eat-as-much-as-you-want lobster was another favourite and a real indulgence.

The service throughout the resort was excellent. Everyone was friendly, warm, and efficient, creating a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.

The trapeze entertainment was exciting to watch and clearly the result of hard practice and dedication — truly impressive. The spa was well worth it and left me feeling completely rejuvenated after a long flight. It was the perfect way to unwind and reset.

The cooking class was a lovely complimentary addition to the experience. Cooking the Balinese chicken curry was enjoyable and delicious. Well done to Chef Norman and his team for a fun and well-organised session.

Overall, Club Med Bali delivers outstanding food, excellent service, and memorable activities, making it a fantastic holiday destination that we would happily recommend.

lets see if this will work this time.
Location- the location is stunning, it is situated close to the beach, its easy walking to outside places such as Bali collection. the whole resort is spread out and well thought out for places and activities.

atmosphere- this is a family resort but can also be nice to the solo traveler like myself, you got the zen pool for that piece and quiet away from noise and kids, but also at nights the places turns up and the crazy signs let you enjoy a good workout after a day off eating and sleeping, the staff bring the energy.

rooms- i don't understand why people complain about the rooms, like grow up you did not pay just to sit inside a room your whole trip, i found the room very nice, bed was comfy and everything was clean, bathroom is nice and always clean as well and the staff are always cleaning everyday.
if you complain meet me at the security gate aye learn to be thankful for where you stay and enjoy it.

value- before i came to bali everyone i talked to questioned why i paid "so much" for two weeks, well here is a hint it actually works out for you staying at a club med. because if you break it down all your meals and drinks are provided, now think about how much it would cost you outside for a meal, and for say 2-3 drinks. now simply think this one add the room on top you are paying each night as well as the meals and drinks, it actually comes out more beneficial staying here at all inclusive. give you a few thoughts on that..

cleanliness- the whole place is always clean the staff (GE) OR (GO) are up early prepping to make every where look beautiful and presentable for everyone to enjoy.

noise level- now during the day the only noise you will get is either the aqua gym and pool party after, or at nights when its crazy signs but honestly its not an issue really because you will either be joining in or already tired enough that you will crash out before you hit the pillow.

service- well i did not encounter anyone being rude from the staff side of things, one or two guests were but hey some want to feel big shot and everything each to there own. but honestly the food presented amazing, the craft all shows are done by are amazing, the careful planning taken place to assemble a week for everyone whether its dress code, show, if its raining that night, what should be on menu. all these come with great service.

i want to leave special thanks to a number of people. Houcem (CDV) boss man, your kind nature and energy is incredible, you have a great team under you and look forward to seeing you again as i already booked.
Tarryn, you are an assest to this company was sad seeing you leave early hopefully club med gives you a new village and you bring the energy every time. to note GO stay either 6-12 months at a resort and move around.
Dayu and Tawan (Mr Please to Meet Me) you are two very kind and caring individuals, you look out for your teams and also make sure the guests are having amazing stays, your full of laughs and energy.
sheriff and badal- you two and your bar team are amazing you know every guest and what would suite each order of drink, you all like to have a laugh with guests and also listen to guests stories.
Ashliegh what can i say leave the best to last aye. well you are great you are so friendly and love making sure guests are having great times, you are very professional at your job and are always around to make sure that the energy at nights is at an all time high even if you are in the shows, you are amazing.

all in all everyone should enjoy there times here at club med, i am sure i have missed alot of people out i am sorry.

We went for a short weekend getaway, making the most of the convenient direct flight of just over two hours. The weather was perfect—hot and sunny—which set the tone for a relaxing and enjoyable trip.

Club Med Bali offers a perfect balance of excellent food, diverse activities, and friendly people, making our stay truly memorable. Special thanks to CDV Houcem for his hospitality and the outstanding GO team—including Ashleigh, Younass, Shelly, Carol, Zee, Tawan, Chef Ravin, Jayrate and many more—who made every day enjoyable.

The GO team's energy keeps the resort lively, from poolside relaxation and great meals to a welcoming bar and uplifting atmosphere. For a hassle-free getaway filled with relaxation and fun activities, Club Med truly stands out as our top choice.
