Club Med Charlevoix... again

Not but three hours away, nestled on a mountaintop with a waterfront view, Quebec has its very own Club Med resort. Between skiing, the spa, fantastic food, and a whole host of family activities, this four-season getaway is tops in my books. Pack your bathing suits and snow pants, because this all-inclusive has it all!

Let me tell you why: first of all, the breathtaking views. Being immersed in nature is probably one the ways I feel most alive. Tingling with energy in this wonderous location, it’s every nature lover’s dream. The St Lawrence river and the greatest vertical drop East of the Rockies, this Canadian Club Med offers grounds that are truly unique.

With ski-in access, luging, exploring the history of the area, and the top-notch food, there was no shortage of stuff to do. For me, the fact that my kids had a ton of activities to keep them busy was such a pleasure. Each of us has something we absolutely wanted to experience, but together, we did a lot of this:

Meanwhile, I had a chance to get some time to myself and indulge in some much-needed spa therapy. Saunas with panoramic views, open-air hot tubs, and massage treatments, I was well taken care of.

Vacations as a family are so important to me. Time together to just disconnect from work and the stress of daily life and a chance to reconnect, laugh, and make memories. Club Med Charlevoix offered us the opportunity to do all of that in spades. Coming together for meals, enjoying hikes in the snowy mountains, and taking ski lessons together to up the ante on our athletic ability, each day gave us something to look forward to.

I love that we have this resort so close by. I’ve been more than once and have enjoyed each visit. Alone, as a couple, or with the whole family, you can do anything from spa vacation to kiddie clubs – I mean, Club Med Charlevoix all-inclusive is a veritable one-stop shop that answers all of your vacation needs!
