Club Med, a global pioneer in premium all-inclusive holidays for over 75 years, has signed a Hotel Management Agreement with PT Grahatama Kreasibaru (GKB), a leader in Indonesia’s hospitality sector, to launch Club Med Manado in North Sulawesi. The upcoming resort will be the brand’s third location in Indonesia, joining Club Med Bali, which opened in 1984, and Club Med Bintan, which opened in 1997.. Reinforcing its commitment to the region, Club Med is also renewing its Land Use Development Agreement for Club Med Bali and planning major upgrades to Club Med Bintan.

The agreement, signed at Club Med Bali in the presence of Mr. Gregory Lanter, Deputy CEO of Club Med, and Mr. Harris Gozali, CEO of GKB, marks a strategic alliance aimed at showcasing the beauty of North Sulawesi on the world stage. “Together with Paradise Indonesia, we are delighted and honoured to jointly welcome the addition of Club Med Manado into our portfolio,” said Gregory Lanter. “This strategic partnership not only strengthens our continued presence in Indonesia, a market we deeply cherish, but also allows us to bring our unique blend of premium all-inclusive luxury and immersive experiences to the breathtaking natural beauty of North Sulawesi. With a dedicated Exclusive Collection space, Club Med Manado will truly embody the essence of an upscale escape for our guests that is truly l’esprit libre.”

Harris Gozali said, “We are proud to partner with Club Med in bringing a world-renowned brand to North Sulawesi, one of Indonesia’s most captivating natural destinations. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to elevating Indonesia’s tourism landscape through sustainable, world-class developments. Club Med Manado will not only offer a unique travel experience but also make a significant contribution to the local economy and community. It’s a key milestone in our journey to develop iconic lifestyle destinations across the country.”

Situated just 70 minutes from Sam Ratulangi International Airport, Club Med Manado will be an oasis where nature’s paradise meets conscious living, adventure, and serenity. Every one of its 250 rooms will offer uninterrupted views of the Molucca Sea and Mount Klabat, the highest peak in North Sulawesi. Guests can look forward to vibrant dining concepts that blend global gastronomy with the bold flavours of Manadonese cuisine, alongside Club Med’s signature all-inclusive offerings from the renowned Kids Club and Amazing! Family programmes for diverse sports and cultural activities. The resort will also feature an Exclusive Collection space, offering elevated privacy, premium amenities, and bespoke services for discerning travelers.

In line with its commitment to sustainable development, Club Med Manado is targeting BREEAM “Very Good” certification for its construction, ensuring eco-conscious practices at every stage. In addition to promoting environmental stewardship, the project will create over 1,000 direct and indirect jobs for Indonesians, resulting in long-term benefits for the local economy. The brand’s community-focused approach will include talent development in hospitality, international exchange opportunities, and support for local producers, fostering economic growth and cultural exchange.

Slated to open in 2028, Club Med Manado promises an unparalleled holiday experience in one of Indonesia’s most captivating destinations, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and world-class hospitality.
