Curator’s statement
Club Med Cancun Yucatan is a fantastic family getaway because of its all-inclusive convenience, stunning beachfront location and abundance of kid-friendly activities. My kids loved the Mini Club Med, where they could have fun and make new friends. They could try exciting activities like trapeze, archery, putt-putt, sailing and arts and crafts. The variety of dining options made mealtime stress-free, and the friendly staff ensured we all had a relaxing and fun experience. The family-friendly entertainment each night

Our stay at Club Med Cancun Yucatan was nothing short of exceptional. I can confidently say it’s one of the best all-inclusive resorts for families looking for a stress-free, activity-filled vacation. From the moment we arrived, the warm and welcoming staff made us feel right at home, setting the tone for a fantastic experience. The resort’s prime location on the tip of the Riviera Maya. It provides breathtaking ocean views, a private beach and a sense of exclusivity that made our trip feel extra special. What stood out the most was the balance between relaxation and adventure. Whether we wanted to lounge by the tranquil Zen pool or join in on exhilarating activities, there was something for everyone.




One of the biggest highlights for families is the Aguamarina family area. It offers spacious accommodations and an expansive family pool perfect for parents and kids to enjoy together. The real showstopper, though, was the water park area, which kept my kids entertained for hours. With multiple slides, splash zones and interactive play features, it’s an absolute paradise for water-loving children. Unlike some resorts where the water park feels like an afterthought, this one is well-designed, spacious and seamlessly integrated into the resort. This makes it easy for families to spend the entire afternoon enjoying it. The combination of beachfront access, pools and water park fun means there’s never a dull moment for kids who love the water.




For those who are passionate about pickleball, Club Med Cancun Yucatan is an absolute dream. The resort offers plenty of well-maintained pickleball courts, making it an excellent destination for groups of pickleball enthusiasts looking to travel together. Whether you’re a casual player or looking to organize a full pickleball tournament, there’s more than enough space and opportunity to do so. The Club Med G.O.s (Gentil Organisateurs) even help coordinate matches and keep the energy high, making it easy to meet other players and get in some competitive games. With the resort’s all-inclusive format, it’s effortless to spend the morning on the courts, grab a gourmet lunch and then cool off in the ocean or at the pool — all without ever having to leave the property.




Dining was another standout feature — each restaurant offered fresh, high-quality cuisine, with a mix of international flavors and local Mexican specialties. My personal favorite was Taco Arte Beach Lounge, where I enjoyed gourmet tacos and craft cocktails with my toes in the sand while watching the sunset.




I highly recommend Club Med Cancun Yucatan for families who want an elevated all-inclusive experience with plenty of opportunities for both adventure and relaxation. It’s especially great for active families, as the resort offers everything from snorkeling in crystal-clear waters to archery, paddleboarding and of course, pickleball. Whether you’re traveling as a family, a couple or part of a pickleball group looking for a fun and competitive getaway, this resort has something for everyone. If you’re looking for a vacation that blends culture, comfort and fun in an easy, all-inclusive package, this resort is a fantastic choice.
