Cherating Beach Малайзія

Mum and I had such a wonderful first stay at Club Med Cherating – truly one of our most memorable trips and we had such a quality time together.

Mum loved the intermediate/advanced tennis classes with Coach Bryan, who was patient, passionate, and made every session fun. She also tried rock climbing for the first time with Isaac and Niki, who were super friendly and encouraging to finish to the top, and we had a great sailing experience with NIK, who kept things safe but exciting. I really enjoyed Pascaline’s yoga and Pilates classes, which were both challenging and relaxing.

The GO team made the trip extra special – Bryan, Mad, Nazmi, MO, Juan, and BOD were all so sweet and welcoming. Juan’s knowledge of botanicals was fascinating, and SHEN and Poppy at the bar was always fast, attentive, and served great drinks. The security guard greeted us daily with a smile, which we appreciated. A special thanks to MO for the kind farewell at the end of our stay to make sure we caught out transport.

The food was varied and delicious every day, and the circus show was a real highlight – so fun and unforgettable.

Overall, we had an amazing time and we are sure to visit Club Med again. Huge thanks to all the staff for making our holiday so memorable for mum and I.

Club Med Cherating has several highlights, especially enthusiastic staff service and spectacular evening shows, but chaotic water sports management is a major drawback.

Pros 👍

Outstanding Staff Service: Security staff DAL was particularly warm, proactively helping with luggage and problem-solving
Thoughtful Boutique Service: Staff patiently introduced products and helped solve currency exchange issues
Spectacular Nightly Shows: Rich acrobatic performances every night, "Night at the Museum" theme was especially impressive
Child-Friendly: All G.O.s were patient and enthusiastic with children
Quick Room Service: App-based maintenance requests handled promptly, bed sheet changes were immediate

Major Cons 👎

Terrible Water Sports Management: No one called names from lists, chaotic scenes, staff shirked responsibility
Poor Theater Flow: Crowded entrance prevented seating despite available spots
Corporate Event Impact: Yoga moved to ant-infested lawn, large dining tables mostly reserved

✅ Recommended for: Those who enjoy entertainment shows, families with children
❌ Not recommended for: Travelers primarily seeking water sports experiences

Practical Tips:

1. Exchange Malaysian Ringgit in advance
2. Be patient with water sports or consider other resorts
3. Arrive early for theater shows
4. Download Club Med App for easy service contact

I joined to the teensclub, and I joined so many activities. I went to beach with my group mates and Angela guided us. She is so kind to us and always caring us. I made some friends and, we enjoyed time together. I’m so happy to make special memories with my new friends and Angela.

We stayed at Club Med Cherating and my teenager really enjoyed the Teen Club. Angela was fantastic – she was fun, friendly and made sure everyone felt included. The kids always came back smiling and excited for the next day.

It made a big difference to our trip knowing the teens were happy and busy with activities. Angela really stood out and we’re very grateful for her energy and kindness. Would definitely recommend for families with teenagers.

Great time for the kids, who enjoyed themselves so much . Sports are great , beach and pools are fine. Food is terrific, with different cuisine at everyone's taste !
