There’s something magical about a golf holiday. The peaceful early mornings, the satisfying thwack of a perfect drive, the friendly competition, and—let’s be honest—the scenery that always takes your breath away. Now imagine all of that, wrapped up in one stress-free, all-inclusive package with world-class service, beautiful global destinations, and courses designed by the best in the business. That’s what the all-inclusive Club Med offers.


At Club Med, they don’t just include golf, they celebrate it. And whether you’re an enthusiastic beginner—like me—or a seasoned pro looking to sharpen your short game, there’s a place for you on their fairways. With a choice of stunning locations, expert instruction, and an atmosphere where relaxation meets adventure, it’s no wonder so many travelers keep coming back.


So, let’s walk through all the amazing reasons why the all-inclusive Club Med resorts are the ultimate destination for a golf holiday.


Global Greens in Spectacular Settings


First things first: the courses!  One of the biggest joys of golfing at an all-inclusive Club Med resort is the jaw-dropping natural beauty that surrounds each course. Whether you’re playing in the tropics, the mountains, or somewhere in between, every swing is set against a backdrop that makes it hard not to pause and soak it all in. With locations in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas, you can chase the perfect swing at Club Med while exploring the world.  

 

Tropical fairways: Picture this—lush greens rolling down toward crystal-clear waters. That’s what awaits you at Club Med Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic or at Club Med Cap Skirring in Senegal for example. Both locations are a paradise for beach lovers and golf fanatics. 



Mountain views: Ready to swap surfside fairways for snow-capped peaks and alpine air? Visit Club Med Tignes in the French Alps, or Club Med Kiroro Grand nestled in the mountains of the Hokkaido region in Japan to admire the surrounding views while you drive and putt. It’s golf like you’ve never experienced it before, crisp, serene, and surprisingly challenging.



Morocco’s palm groves: Here, the desert meets the fairway. With sweeping views, warm sunshine, and beautiful landscaping, Morocco offers a unique take on the game. Whether you try a round of golf at Club Med La Palmeraie in Marrakech or at Club Med Yasmina at the foot of the Rif Mountains, you’re in the heart of Morocco’s natural beauty.



Southeast Asia island greens: From serene fairways to legendary ocean-side holes and dramatic cliffside courses, each Club Med island escape blends jungle-to-sea landscapes with world-class golf. Find happiness at Club Med Bali with a driver in hand, work on your swing in a stunning setting by Kata Bay while at Club Med Phuket or challenge yourself on a technical course with tantalizing views of the South China Sea at Club Med Bintan Island.



Mediterranean greens: From the Andalusian scenic riviera to the Algarve region, the Mediterranean coast offers rugged beauty like no other. Think scarlet cliffs, dramatic ocean views, and sun-drenched greens. Experience a true golfer’s dreamscape at Club Med Marbella in Spain or at Club Med da Balaia in Portugal.



The French countryside: Quaint villages, rolling vineyards, and charming fairways. It’s golf with a side of culture, cuisine, and classic European charm. Give it a try at Club Med Vittel or at Club Med Opio en Provence for example.



Something for Every Swing


Golf can be intimidating, especially if you’re just starting out, but the all-inclusive Club Med makes it accessible, welcoming, and fun. Their philosophy? Golf is for everyone. And they really mean everyone.


Golf is a key Club Med activity with 17 golf schools available at different resorts around the globe. These immersive programs are designed to help players of all levels get better, feel more confident, and enjoy the game. You can book golf lessons directly at the resort or prearrange them before your arrival.


Many all-inclusive Club Med resorts offer complimentary group lessons six days a week with golf clubs and practice balls on loan. The lessons are led by certified golf instructor G.Os (Gentil Organisateurs | Gentle Organizers) who live and breathe the sport. And when the class is over, you have free access to putting greens, bunkers, driving ranges, and pitch & putt areas to practice on your own.  


For beginners—Never held a club before? No problem. Start with the basics, discover all aspects of the game—body movement and swing, pitching and putting—and learn the rules and etiquette on the course. You learn at your own pace with guidance from friendly G.O instructors who are passionate about golf and love helping others fall in love with the game.


For Intermediates—Want to fix that slice or get more consistent off the tee? Group lessons and guided practice also help intermediate players sharpen their technical skills in a supportive environment.


For Advanced Players—Even low handicappers can find value at a Club Med golf school, especially with optional private or intensive sessions. These one-on-one lessons—at an additional cost—take a personalized approach, working on technique, strategy, and even mental game. Revise your shots in all areas of the game, including video analysis, learn about emotional management, play a 9-hole round with your instructor. This intensive coaching will make you better, whatever that looks like for you.


Tee Packages—Want to explore local golf courses during your stay? Many all-inclusive Club Med resorts offer exclusive access to nearby championship courses designed by legends like Tom Fazio, and Gary Player. These paying tee packages can be booked at the discovery office of the resort and often include green fees, transfers, optional caddies, and club rentals, making it easy to step onto the course and play your best round.


So, whether you're new to the game or working toward a lower handicap, the all-inclusive Club Med makes it easy to get into the game without the hassle. 



Golf is a Family Affair


One of the things that truly sets the all-inclusive Club Med apart is how family-friendly it is—even when it comes to golf. Yes, really!

 

Starting as young as 4 years old, kids can take part in Club Med’s Little Golf program at Mini Club Med. These bite-sized sessions introduce sport in a way that’s fun, playful, and perfectly suited to young imaginations. Once they hit 8 years old, the program steps up with age-appropriate instruction from qualified G.O instructors.

 

Golf lessons are available at several Club Med resorts for children 8 years and older. Using a fun-based teaching method, these small group classes (6 to 8 kids maximum) allow children to learn the basic techniques and practice the different phases of the game—putting, approach shots, driving, and bunker play. Advanced participants may even take French Golf Federation tests (drapeaux | flags).


If your thing is more putt-putting, try a mini golf course like the one at Club Med Cancún for some family fun.

 

The all-inclusive Club Med is always adding new, fun, family-friendly activities. The latest? Footgolf. You haven’t heard of it? No worries—neither had I! Part golf, part football, this new sport is played on a golf course and aims to get a ball into a 21-inch footgolf cup with as few kicks as possible. Suitable for all ages, even toddlers 2 years and older, you can experience footgolf with your family at Club Med Guilin.



Golf Equipment: No Need to Pack Your Clubs

 

We all know how tricky it can be to travel with golf clubs. The all-inclusive Club Med makes it easier by offering equipment rentals at most of their resorts, so you can leave your clubs at home and avoid the hassle of carrying them with you.


The resorts also offer a selection of premium equipment to ensure that you have everything you need for a great round of golf. And if you're a seasoned golfer who prefers to use your own clubs, some resorts even provide support for traveling with your gear, making it easy to bring along what you're comfortable with.



Beyond Golfing: A World-Class Resort Experience


While golf is a major draw, all-inclusive Club Med resorts offer so much more to ensure a complete vacation experience. Non-golfers won’t be left out, as each resort features a wide range of activities to keep everyone entertained. From tennis and archery to relaxing by the pool or indulging in a spa treatment, there’s something for every interest. And with all-inclusive dining, complimentary cocktails, and nightly entertainment, everyone can enjoy their stay to the fullest.


It’s not just about golf—it’s about living well while doing what you love.


Final Thoughts: Tee Off with a Smile


Golfers know it’s not just a game—it’s a way to relax, focus, and have a little fun in beautiful places. Club Med understands that better than most. By combining breathtaking destinations, expert instruction, equipment rental, flexible tee packages at world-class courses and all-inclusive family-friendly vibe, they’ve created something truly special.

 

So, whether you're chasing your personal best, planning a romantic getaway, or bringing the whole family along, the all-inclusive Club Med has a golf holiday that fits your swing.
