Having read other reviews I was a little apprehensive about this resort. The comments suggested that it was in serious need of of re-furbishment. Well perhaps this may be true but everything we experienced more than compensated for this. Firstly, as every reviewer has noted, the location is simply stunning. Perfect beach (although rather coarse gravel sand); lovely unspoilt surrounding hills and dramatic coloured granite coastal cliffs and caves nearby.
The GO staff at this ClubMed were all very welcoming, helpful and efficient, making for an excellent holiday experience. My wife and I sailed 5 times each in the well-organised catamaran fleet. We did some archery and snorkelled off the rocks at on end of the beach. The water was beautifully warm and crystal clear enabling us to see several species of fish at very close quarters. Having snorkelled all over the world in the past, we were well aware that the Mediterranean has no colourful coral fish but despite this, we enjoyed what we saw.
I played some tennis and had a couple of group lessons at the extensive school with its many courts. My wife went horse-riding at a nearby stables with a group and would have gone on a ride that takes the horses into the sea on beach ride if time would have permitted. She also did some sea kayaking. (Note that we enjoyed all these activities despite being many years past retirement age !)
The food was more or less up to the usual Club Med standard apart from several of the meat dishes that were tough and chewy. We also didn't eat much fish because it was often overcooked. The desserts and cheeses were good but long queues for ice-cream.
Evening entertainment was as expected; rather amateurish and too loud for our generation to enjoy. We didn't stay up long for it on any evening.
We were very lucky to have a room in the lower part of the resort. Some rooms require a massive climb up many steps to reach them from the beach-side restaurant, pool or tennis courts. Only the archery site is high up the hill with these rooms.
The one thing that I knew to expect was that the composition of the guests would be mainly French parents, grandparents and children. In fact we only met three other couples who were not French speakers; one charming couple from London where the man was Australian and his wife Dutch with their two lovely children and two other couples from USA and Italy respectively. I was able to practice my schoolboy French with many wonderful others. Everyone was very friendly despite the language barrier.
Finally, the weather helped. We had the most perfect week with constant blue skies and day temps between 27 and 32 degrees C. Luckily it cooled off a bit at night because there are no air-conditioners in the rooms. Amazingly we saw not a single mosquito or fly. In fact the whole area appeared rather devoid of land or air animals of any kind - quite strange.
We also took one half-day excursion by boat to see the rocks, cliffs and grottoes. It was well worth it and highly recommended
Next time we will take our grandchildren as many of the French did. It is a fantastic place for a seaside holiday

Club Med is really the best when you have young active kids. Our 2 child (4 and 7) enjoyed the Mini club and get entertained by young and dynamic GO. Thanks to Sacha, Tina, Gaby, Thiffaine, the "twins", and all the other. As for us, the parents, we enjoyed all the club activities especially the nautical sports. Guests should know this club is pretty "old" so don't expect a modern room. Really good ambiance there and scenery beautiful.

Amazing time with the SPORT CREW, Bastien alias Gerard at the tir a l'arc, Rosene at the Fitness classes every day, Axel at the basketball. Many thanks to Roxane from reception and Roxane from the Service bar.
And to finish many thanks to the Chef of the Village ;)

I had the best time here in such a beautiful location.
The food was amazing.
Thank you to the lovely GO and GE team who were all very friendly and very helpful :-)
Good animation and entertainment, I had a wonderful time!

Great stay at Cargese! Not luxurious, but really classic Club Med! Very friendly staff and GO's. Special wishes get their full attention. Simple but good accommodation and very nicely prepared food buffets. Chef de Village and her team doming great work!

Do not pass up this Gem of Tridents! This Club Med is perfect for families who just want to "Get Away, and Play " The Bay is Pristine Blue and perfect for snorkeling, even with little kiddos. There are plenty of shallow spots, and deeper spots for more experienced snorkelers. They offer Sailing, Surfboarding ,Kayaking and many other water excursions. We did a snorkeling Excursion with A L'eau Rondo. Do This!!
If you enjoy hiking, you will have some breathtaking views.
The rooms are a bit small, and no Air Conditioning. But no worries. The rooms were very clean. There is a fan in each room, and with the cool
Ocean Breeze blowing through your window, you won't mind. I promise!
The Mini Club was Fantastic! My 11 yo daughter had a blast with the numerous activities, and the Mini Club Go's are Great.
Food, as always was on point! Outside Grills with fresh fish and grilled meats. Outside dining tables, adds to your whole experience. But get to each meal soon, as some favorite items run out.
Service. Fantastic! I can not say enough, about how wonderful, accommodating, and friendly the GO'S are! There were so many that made our trip unforgettable.
Chris, Guillaume, (Both Of you!) Celest, Roxanne, Mimi, Anthony. And many more!
JUST GO! Hospitality and Experience is unforgettable.

Had visited many clubmed, this is my favorite. The usually friendly GOs are exceptional here. (Sports) Francis, Christophe, Antoine, (Boutique) Irina, (Bar) Celeste, (Mini club) Clem, Benjamin, Hugo - they are a lovely, attentive bunch.
The fact that we arrive at the beginning of the season, makes a great difference. We have the whole club to ourselves.
The water is crystal clear, just like the Carribean. Thank you for the memorable stay.
