- Club Med is an “All-Inclusive” Resort
The term “all-inclusive” means everything is included in the price - ferry tickets, accommodation, 3 meals a day, drinks, snacking, sports and activities, entertainment, and the children’s club. Basically, all-inclusive means a hassle-free vacation for everyone, no matter what they may desire. The special discounted rates are listed below!
- Dong’ao is a Private Island
Club Med on Dong’ao Island is the perfect place to relax. Unlike Hong Kong, there are no large crowds, no city noises to wake you up in the middle of the night and actual fresh air! It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature.
- It’s Super Close to Hong Kong
Dong’ao island is only two, short 50-minute ferry rides away from Hong Kong. This not only lowers the price, but is also far better than waiting in those horrendous airport security lines. Club Med is working on introducing a single, one-hour direct ferry from Hong Kong to Dong’ao, so there’s no excuse not to go.
- A Zone Just for Children, So You Can Relax!
One of Club Med’s goals is to ensure that everyone has a flawless time on holiday, the “Petit Club” is a zone just for toddlers 2-3 to play while trained supervisors introduce them to experiences they’ll never forget! Also, Club Med Dong’ao offers a “Mini Club” for children aged 4-10 and a “Juniors’ Club” for teenagers aged 11-17. There are brand new toys, video games, playgrounds and sports that are waiting for your kids to play with them! With your kids taken care of, that leaves the perfect time to try new water sports like paddle boarding, hitting the open bar or sneaking off for some alone time by the pool with your significant other.
- It’s a Great Price for the Experience You’ll Have
There are two beautiful resort options that lay on either side of the breathtaking beach. Le Luxe, the 5-trident (Club Med’s equivalent of a 5-star rating) luxury line at Club Med Dong’ao has 72 deluxe rooms and family suites. Depending on the dates and size, the rooms can range from HKD$4,838 - HKD$14,334 per adult for a 3-Day 2-Night package plus ferry fees. The second is the larger Premium Resort. It received a 4-trident rating and has 267 deluxe rooms and suites from HKD$3,914 - HKD$10,014 per adult for 3-Day 2-Night Ferry Package depending on when you book.
- There are still crazy discounts if you book before 30 June
If you book a minimum of 4 nights between 1 July - 25 September and 10 - 31 October, you will receive 35% off room rates. If you visit between 26 September - 9 October, you will receive 10% off room rates. That’s a discount on the already lowered prices!
- Experience the Magic of Club Med
From the very beginning, the Club Med staff known as G.O.s (Gentle Organizers) greeted us at the ferry terminals and celebrated our entrance into the beautiful resort with smiles and cheers. Club Med has a magical atmosphere that regular hotels simply do not. They have nightly shows put on by the friendly G.O.s that are sure to get even the shiest person on their feet and dancing. No other hotel has staff that find it important to learn your name on the first day and greet you every morning with a smile. Club Med is by far the best holiday experience I’ve ever had.
- You have the inside details before anyone else!
Club Med is one of Hong Kong Madame’s partners, so you get the sneak peek before the public! Everything you need to have the best holiday is at Club Med Dong’ao. They have activities like archery, trapeze, water sports, biking and hiking trails, gym with workout lessons, and more. If you prefer to not be as active, they have spas, indoor and outdoor pools, the beach, every kind of restaurant from Japanese to Italian, Mah-Jong rooms and meeting rooms for business. In three days we made deep connections with the G.O.s and fell in love with Dong’ao. We already want to go back!
