More upgrades coming to Club Med Cancun; Punta Cana resort getting a splash park

Club Med says more renovations are coming to its Cancun and Punta Cana properties.

The Cancun resort, which is located at the tip of the Riviera Maya, will undergo a “multitude of renovations” over the next year to enhance the guest experience, reads a press release.

The Main Pool and Deck Area will be transformed into an expansive infinity pool that borders the natural lagoon, the brand says. A new Beach & Pool Bar, steps away from the beach, will also be introduced.

This vibrant new space promises to embrace a "Tulum dreamscape" with a “boho-chic aesthetic.”  

As part of these renovations, select Deluxe Rooms near the beach bar and Sports & Wellness Island will be upgraded to provide an enhanced level of comfort and luxury.

These rooms will feature a sophisticated design that combines the refreshing and vibrant essence of Mayan culture with modern furnishings, spacious layouts, and private balconies that evoke the serene beauty of the sea and lagoon.

The company expects to complete this by July 2025.

This December, the Family Oasis at Club Med Cancun will be significantly enhanced with new features designed to enrich the family experience.

Highlights include a Mayan-themed Splash Park, a dynamic Water Park, Mini Pool & Playground, Fun Zone, and Mini Cinema – offering kids an all-new adventure during their vacation.

The Children's Clubs will be relocated next to the Aguamarina family oceanfront rooms, minimizing travel distance from family accommodations and providing a convenient new location that blends the spirit of exploration with the wonders of Mayan culture.

Additionally, Baby Club Med will be introduced, offering a dedicated space for children ages four months to 23 months to enjoy activities such as music workshops, nature walks, painting, and daily family events including cooking classes, pool parties, and snack time – all under the care of professionally trained staff.

The resort will remain open during all renovations, says Club Med.

This update follows recent developments at Club Med Cancun, including the introduction of a Sports & Wellness Island earlier this year, featuring a multi-sports court, a flying trapeze and bungee, bocce ball, mini golf, archery, and a serene yoga palapa overlooking the lagoon.

Club Med Punta Cana to open splash park

Club Med Punta Cana will also be opening a splash park in December 2024 just in time for the holidays.

The park promises exhilarating water slides, splash zones, and interactive water features.

This addition follows recent renovations at the property, which introduced all-new family rooms, a wedding venue, beauty salon, and refreshed dining experience at the resort's main Caribbean restaurant, Hispaniola, which offers special vegan dishes developed by Food Network's Chef Chloe Coscarelli. 

A long with the splash park, guests can enjoy 20+ included activities such as pickleball, trapeze and kayaking – all only 15 minutes from the Punta Cana airport.

Club Med Musandam – coming in 2028

Meanwhile, Club Med Musandam, a new Exclusive Collection Resort, will open in Oman in 2028.

Club Med Musandam is a 300-room, Exclusive Collection (5-star) resort that incorporates the culture of Oman in its design, entertainment, food & beverage, and provide guests with access to a private beach with incredible scenery.

Situated on the Arabian Peninsula overlooking the Persian Gulf and panoramic Hajar Mountains, Musandam has earned the nickname, "The Norway of Arabia," for having the world's only desert fjords.

Club Med Musandam will include all the amenities that Club Med guests have come to expect—gourmet dining, Children's Clubs, wellness experiences, an adults-only area, spa, an array of land & water sports—plus the hassle-free convenience of an all-inclusive vacation.

The resort is only a five-minute boat ride from Khasab City and 2.5 hours from Dubai International Airport.

The project is a collaboration between Club Med, Royal Court Affairs and Omran Group, which has invested over $100 million into its development.

Club Med Musandam will be another addition to Club Med's Exclusive Collection—a portfolio of 5-star resorts, spaces, villas and chalets, and a French sailing yacht.
