"Another unforgettable memories at Club Med"
(3938) 5★ comments on Tripadvisor
"We've just spent ten days at Club Med Cherating. We've previously stayed at Club Med Phuket and it was great to see that each Club Med has its own flavour and style. We absolutely loved everything about CM Cherating.
- Resort
The resort is phenomenal. There is something for everyone from the family-friendly massive resort pool (which includes a shallow section for the little ones) to the adults-only gorgeous zen pool, beautiful beach and beautiful walks with lots of wildlife.
- Zen pool and beach
I have to mention this separately as this was an absolute gem. You can take the 5min train ride from the resort (one every half an hour) or you can take a beautiful jungle walk (there is a path and I highly recommend doing this walk) that takes you there in ten mins. The zen pool has its own staff and small bar. It has views to die for over the ocean. It is also conveniently located next to the water sports beach where you can do sailing, kayaking, safe swimming or take part in the many activities like beach BBQs, beach volleyball etc.
- The best resort for families
We have a 16yo and 11yo. Both had an absolute ball at Teen club with Andrea which made them feel like they were part of the team from Day 1. We basically didn't see our kids other than breakfast, dinner, night shows and excursions and they both said it was the best holiday they've ever had.
- Great buffets
A great deal of variety daily with lots of choices. You could choose from Asian, Japanese, Carvery, Malaysian, Italian, Fast food, Salad bar, specially plated entrees, dessert bar, bakery, juice bar and sodas. We're not big drinkers so I can't comment on the alcohol other than the odd delicious cocktail we tried. One of my kids is quite fussy with food and he was very happy with the daily choices of pasta, pizza, salads and roast dinner.
- Activities and excursions: like in every Club Med, the list of activities on offer is staggering. We enjoyed the pool activities, kayaking and yoga. Our kids tried absolutely everything. As a family we also booked three extra excursions (extra fee) which I want to mention here as we all felt they were fantastic: baby turtle release, mangrove cruise and firefly night excursion. We got to see a bit of Malaysia outside of the resort and made great family memories.
- The people:
[...]Club Med is about the experience. The moment you're welcomed into the resort you feel you're part of a family. The staff know you and your kids by name [...]. Every moment of our stay at Club Med Cherating was filled with joy, smiles and 100% sense of relaxation - even when we were partying late, dancing at the Neon Party (highly recommended by the way). So, if you want to make magic memories with your family, have fun trying out lots of different activities, want to eat delicious food, sip amazing cocktails and enjoy fabulous entertainment Club Med is for you. [...]
Thank you for an unforgettable holiday! "

Beyond expectation
Such an amazing experience, the resort is well maintained, loads of activities and programs, food was excellent and bar service was very good. The staff are genuinely friendly and helpful. Beyond expectation. Definitely coming back! Maybe not during monsoon season though. Highly recommend for families and even for businesses.

Friendly and helpful GOs.
The GOs, Zoey, Grayson and Chen were very professional and friendly.
They welcomed our group when we arrived. Grayson explained clearly to us when distributing the envelopes on the coach. Zoey was very helpful in handling some issues arising during our stay. Chen attended to us whenever we had queries.
Bravo to all the GOs. They really make their GMs feel at home.

Special Thanks to Naka for His Kind and Caring Support
I would like to give a special thank you to Naka from the Front Office team. He was in charge of planning and took great care of us from the moment we arrived. He immediately checked on our room condition, clearly explained about the late check-out, and always made sure we were comfortable.
We even had lunch together, and he was so friendly and easy to talk to. Throughout our stay, he was always checking on us and making sure everything was okay. His kindness and attention really made a big difference in our experience.
Thank you, Naka, for your wonderful hospitality and care! Arigato:)

Beautiful Jungle Resort
When we landed in Kuantan and collected our bags we were met by the Club Med representative. Along with us there was another group arriving at the same time. All 10 of us were squeezed into a van that said Max passengers was 8. There were too many people and too much luggage for this to be comfortable. We made it still with smiles on our faces because our holiday in our Jungle paradise had begun. We were met with disappointment after being told our rooms wouldn't be ready til 3pm (this has never happened in any Club Med resort I'd been to before). The GO that gave us our resort information was so quiet we could hardly hear her. We were left feeling like we just had to work it out ourselves by using the app. When we could finally access the room there was no GO to walk us there and show us where it was (again something that has happened on all my Club Med trips since I was 10!) we were told to head to our room ourselves.
Food:
Major disappointment. Lacked taste and variety. Breakfasts were probably the worst.
GOs:
I've always told people that GOs make Club Med great. My first couple of days I was left extremely disappointed as this GO Team seemed unfriendly and uninterested.
I was pleased to then meet Job and Jover. Both were so lovely and always stopped to have a chat. They turned our whole stay around.
On our last night we were joined at dinner by Jadd and Cammy. Both were very friendly and we had an enjoyable time chatting to them.
Job- Thank-you for trying to teach me some French. Hopefully we see eachother again and I'm able to remember some words.
Jover- You are an extremely talented individual. I enjoyed watching you perform and getting to know you. Until next time 😊
The Bar Team were always friendly and did a great job.
Room:
I knew this resort was older so wasn't expecting much. It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. My bed was very comfortable, nice and soft unlike beds I've slept in at other villages.
Activities:
On wet days there wasn't much to do at all. We tried to do as much as we could on the 2 sunny days we had. It was nice to spend the week relaxing at the bar or by the pool.
I enjoyed my visit to the Zen Pool. The water was the perfect temperature.
Spa:
Probably my favourite place in the resort. I had 2 massages plus 2 other treatments. I've never felt so relaxed.
This resort really is beautiful. The monkeys can be terrifying and did chase my son at one point. There are lots of lovely nature walks. We will definitely return one day.

Good vibes. Excellent bar service.
Cosy rooms. Full of activities for the whole family. Alternatively, just staying by the beach with a drink in hand is a great enough experience. Food was decent enough. Though i would recommend sticking with the buffet stuff which was much better in comparison to the chef specialties. The bar was a highlight of my stay. The bartenders were very accommodating and professional. Special shout out to Chloe for her drink recommendations and warm service. Same goes to Zhi Rou (Zero?).
