Club Med is coming to SA – and Pentravel will get you there!  

08 August 2025

Big news for anyone who loves a great holiday and an even better deal – Club Med is officially coming to South Africa! That’s right: in 2026, you’ll be able to enjoy all the perks of Club Med without even leaving the country. The very first Club Med in South Africa is landing in KwaZulu-Natal, and it’s set to completely change the game for all-inclusive holidays in South Africa

If you’ve been dreaming about all-inclusive family holiday packages in South Africa, a couples’ retreat, or a chill trip with friends that requires zero planning on your part, this is it. 

Where is the new Club Med in South Africa? 

The brand-new Club Med South Africa Beach & Safari will have a beach resort that will be located along the North Coast of KZN, just 45 minutes from Durban. This prime coastal location sits between Tinley Manor and Blythedale Beach – known for warm water, palm-lined beaches, and year-round sunshine.  

Expect laid-back beach vibes, but with a polished, premium twist – plus the option to pair it with a stay at Club Med’s safari lodge, set in the heart of a private game reserve in South Africa for an unforgettable bush-and-beach escape. 

What can you expect at Club Med South Africa? 

So, what makes this resort a must-visit? A lot.

Here’s what’s included in a typical Club Med package: 

  • Accommodation with modern, open-plan design 
  • All meals and snacks – buffet, à la carte, and beach-style dining 
  • Open bar with selected wines, beers, cocktails, and soft drinks 
  • Daily activities like surfing, sailing, tennis, and yoga 
  • Kids’ clubs for different age groups (babies to teens) 
  • Evening shows and entertainment 
  • No tipping required – everything’s prepaid 

And yes – it’s designed for all types of travellers, whether you’re solo, a couple, a group of friends, or travelling with family. 

Who is the new owner of Club Med? 

Club Med is owned by Fosun Group, a global powerhouse with a keen focus on premium travel brands. Since acquiring Club Med in 2015, Fosun has expanded the brand’s reach into exciting new markets – and now, that includes South Africa. 

Why is this so exciting for South African travellers? 

South Africa all-inclusive resorts are rare, especially at this level of quality. So having a world-class Club Med Resort opening right here at home is huge. No international flights. No visas. Just arrive and enjoy. 

How much is Club Med South Africa? 

Exact pricing for the Club Med South Africa Beach & Safari resort hasn’t dropped yet, but based on other Club Med properties, you can expect flexible pricing based on room type, season, and extras. 

How much does it cost to join Club Med? 

No membership is needed! You don’t have to “join” – just book your trip. They do offer loyalty perks and early-bird specials, which Pentravel can help you access.
