As a travel advisor, I always love experiencing resorts firsthand so I can share authentic insights with my clients. Recently, I had the pleasure of staying at Club Med Québec Charlevoix, for a travel conference, and it truly exceeded my expectations.
Nestled between the St. Lawrence River and the Laurentian mountains, this resort perfectly blends luxury, nature, and adventure — all with Club Med’s signature all-inclusive touch.
The Rooms
The rooms are modern, warm, and thoughtfully designed to reflect the natural beauty of the Charlevoix region. My room offered stunning views of the river and mountains, and I loved the cozy alpine-inspired décor. It felt both luxurious and relaxing — the perfect space to unwind after a day of exploring.
The Buffet & Dining
Club Med is famous for its cuisine, and this property is no exception. The buffet featured international and local Québécois dishes, with an impressive variety that changed daily. Whether you’re craving fresh salads, hearty poutine, or delicate pastries, there’s something for everyone, including the kids!!! And the best part? It’s all included — even the wine and specialty coffees.
The Pool & Wellness Facilities
The resort’s pool area is beautiful, with large windows offering panoramic views of the river. It’s the ideal place to relax and recharge. There’s also a full spa and wellness center for those wanting to indulge in a massage or take a yoga class — all in a peaceful mountain setting.
Proximity to the Ski Hills
One of the highlights of Club Med Charlevoix is its ski-in, ski-out access to Le Massif de Charlevoix. In winter, you can go from breakfast straight to the slopes in minutes. It’s an incredible destination for skiers of all levels, and equipment rentals and lessons can be easily arranged right on-site.
Summer Adventures
While it’s a dream destination in winter, Club Med Charlevoix shines in the summer too. There are hiking and biking trails that start right from the resort, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and river valley. Guided excursions, kayaking, and local cultural experiences are also available for those looking to explore more of the region.
The Gondola Ride
One of my favorite experiences during the trip was the panoramic gondola ride at Le Massif. Whether you're visiting in winter or summer, the gondola offers breathtaking views of the St. Lawrence River and the sweeping Charlevoix landscapes. It’s a smooth, scenic ride that feels more like an attraction than simple transportation. In winter, it’s the perfect way to reach the slopes in comfort, and in summer, it becomes a stunning lookout point for hikers and photographers. It’s absolutely worth making time for — the kind of experience that reminds you just how spectacular Québec’s natural beauty really is.
All-Inclusive Ease
What makes Club Med truly special is the all-inclusive experience. From buffet dining and open-bar cocktails to daily activities, entertainment, and kids’ clubs — it’s all included. There’s no need to worry about planning or budgeting once you arrive. You simply relax and enjoy.
Final Thoughts
Whether you’re a skier, hiker, or someone simply seeking a beautiful getaway close to home, Club Med Québec Charlevoix offers something for every season. It’s an ideal destination for couples, families, and even solo travellers who appreciate high-quality experiences with a touch of adventure.
If you’re considering a trip to this stunning region, I’d love to help you plan your stay and make the most of all that Club Med has to offer.
