The Club Med Cancun has some major new amenities.

It’s one of the signature all-inclusive resorts in Cancun: the Club Med Cancun, the brand’s premier resort in Mexico. 

It first opened its doors nearly a half century ago (in 1976, to be exact) and now the resort has debuted a host of large-scale upgrades. 

So what’s new at the resort? 

First, there’s a new “sports and wellness island,” with free yoga classes. Mini golf, archery, bocce and, of course, the brand’s popular trapeze-centered circus school.

That’s along with a new family “oasis” and a children’s club anchored by one of the most in-demand amenities in the Caribbean right now: a water park, along with a splash park, a mini pool for the littlest ones, a playground, a small theater and a “fun zone.”

The resort has also repositioned its kids club, and added a new version of its “Baby Club Med,” with special workshops, classes, painting and focused care for guests between four and 23 months old. 

So what about cost? 

You can stay at the Club Med Cancun for about $1,403 per night right now, according to the company’s website.
