什么是地中海·领境和 地中海·白日方舟

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis: A Whole New Club Med Experience in China

如果你对 Club Med 比较熟悉,那你很有可能去过,或者至少听说过,他们分布在世界各地的标志性度假村。无论是松软雪白的 Kiroro Grand度假村 位于北海道,夜生活丰富的 巴厘岛度假村又或是明信片般碧蓝的海水景致的 卡尼岛度假村 in the Maldives, they all share that iconic Club Med feel. You know the one where you feel the carefree, all-inclusive, fun-filled days, and a warm community vibe led by cheerful Club Med GOs.

但即使你是地中海的忠实粉丝,或是经验丰富的常客,也很可能没听说过这两颗颇为低调的宝石。事实上,Club Med 还有只在中国推出的子品牌——地中海·领境 和 地中海·白日方舟。它们或许没有同样响亮的国际知名度,但各自都拥有独特的风格与魅力。

那么,它们到底是什么?又与大家熟悉和喜爱的度假村有何不同?接下来就带你深入了解一番。

什么是地中海·领境呢?

那我们先来说说 地中海·领境。

这个子品牌是专为中国国内市场量身打造的,并且只在中国境内运营。相比面向国际旅客、提供全球化活动与体验的常规度假村,领境度假村更注重本地化的度假方式。它的理念是在保留经典式待客之道的同时,为中国客人带来更贴近家门口的度假体验,并融入独有的特色。

想象一下,亲近自然的短途之旅、宁静平和的氛围,以及以家庭为中心的活动——距离主要城市车程大约两小时即可抵达。此类度假村通常坐落在风景优美、相对偏远的地区,四周绿意绵延数里,一到达就能让你的压力指数瞬间下降。

每家度假村都秉承着相同的理念——以自然为核心的地中海体验,专为家庭、热爱自然的人士,以及想暂时远离城市喧嚣的情侣而打造。

什么是地中海·白日方舟

现在,让我们来说说地中海·白日方舟

这是地中海俱乐部为城市居民量身打造的快捷度假方案,让人们无需长途跋涉就能享受片刻放松。白日方舟度假村专为中国市场设计,选址靠近大型城市,适合短期住宿、周末度假或临时起意的小旅行。它既不是喧闹的都市,也不是完全的乡野,而是介于工作与休闲之间的一片宁静天地

这里的氛围更加现代、精致,面向的是忙碌的职场人士和家庭,让他们能够在不必长途驾车或乘机的情况下,也能享受到真正的度假体验。

白日方舟本质上是地中海更柔和、更易抵达的版本——在保留品牌精髓的同时,为传统度假模式注入了更轻盈的都市风格。

配套里包含的内容

接下来,这里的体验将与您对传统 Club Med 的印象略有不同。

与地中海俱乐部以全包式闻名的传统度假村不同,领境 和 白日方舟度假村均提供两种不同的配套类型:

住宿和早餐配套

这是基础套餐,包含以下内容:

  • 住宿
  • 每日早餐
  • 晚间娱乐活动
  • 家庭空间使用权
  • 精选活动(如自然漫步、迷你足球、羽毛球等)

对于计划将部分行程用于探索度假村外区域,或并不需要每天享受全包体验的游客来说,这是一个更实惠的选择。

传统度假村与 领境度假村 或 白日方舟度假村有什么区别?

Almost everything. From pricing structure and included amenities, to staff interaction and overall vibes, there’s a lot that sets them apart. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect.

领境 与 白日方舟的价格体系

The Bed and Breakfast package is charged per room per night, unlike the All Inclusive packages in traditional Club Meds that are per person based on the entire stay.

So here’s the trick: maximize your room occupancy. Most rooms like the Superior, Deluxe, or even Premium can fit up to 3 guests, typically 2 adults and 1 child. If you travel solo or as a couple, you’re paying for the whole room regardless. But if you travel with a group or family, you’ll get the best value.

To upgrade to the All Inclusive package, you just top-up per person per night, and what’s even better is you can choose which days to upgrade. Planning a day trip during your stay? Just stick with Bed and Breakfast for that day. It’s flexible and makes sense.

相比之下,像丽江这样的度假村是全包式的,所以即便你外出游览或在壮丽的玉龙雪山进行一日游,也可能错过午餐和晚餐,但费用仍然照收。而在 领境和白日方舟,这就不是问题了。

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Staff and Language

These resorts are built for the domestic Chinese market, so you’ll find that most of the staff are local Chinese, with only a few international GOs.

While the service is still warm and welcoming, don’t expect fluent English everywhere. A translation app can come in handy, especially if you’re navigating through specific requests or local slang.

Weekend Crowds

During weekends or public holidays, brace yourself. These resorts can get packed with local families enjoying their short break. This might not be a big deal for everyone, but for those seeking solitude, it could be a bit overwhelming, crowded buffets, fully booked activities, and longer wait times are all part of the package.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Food and Dining Experience

Despite being located in China, these resorts manage to offer a pretty decent spread of international dishes. You’ll find familiar comforts like pasta, sushi, omelettes, seafood, and a wide range of salads, giving that unmistakable Club Med international flair.

However, the local Chinese cuisine is where the chefs really shine, and it’s clear that this is what most local guests crave for.

Meals often center around regional Chinese dishes, with flavorful stir-fried vegetables, comforting bowls of mapo tofu, delicate dumplings, and deeply satisfying soups and stews. You might also come across skewers hot off the grill, silky congee in the morning, and spicy specialties from different provinces depending on the season or guest mix. There’s a real pride in the local flavors, and it shows.

Interestingly, the menu is quite responsive to guest demographics. When there’s a noticeable increase in international travelers, you’ll see a shift in the offerings. For instance, Thai guests might prompt the kitchen to serve Tom Yum soup. If there are Indonesian GOs around, satay or nasi goreng might appear on the buffet line.

It’s not guaranteed every day, but it adds a fun, dynamic twist to the dining experience. The best time to catch this broader international variety is during quieter periods, weekdays outside of Chinese public holidays. When the resort isn’t crowded, the menu seems more diverse and creative, perhaps because the kitchen has more room to play.

And here’s something you probably won’t find on the website. Based on our own stay at Club Med Urban Oasis Taicang, we discovered that when occupancy is low, the main buffet restaurant may actually close. Rather than feeling like a downgrade, this led to a surprisingly charming twist.

Meals were served at the bar lounge area, and the experience turned à la carte. We were served dishes like mushroom soup, Caesar salad, grilled salmon, and even lobster, all beautifully plated and still included as part of the all-inclusive package.

It felt more boutique than buffet, and honestly, we didn’t miss the crowd or the noise of the larger dining space.

This little surprise made the entire dining experience feel thoughtful, elegant, and far more personalized. So while Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis may not have the over-the-top culinary variety of their global siblings, they still manage to serve up memorable meals, especially when you catch them during those off-peak sweet spots.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Vibes: From Check-in to Check-out

From the moment you arrive, things feel different.

There’s no loud welcome party, no GOs crowding the lobby with cheers and songs. A friendly GE may greet you, but the vibe is much quieter and more hotel-like. Especially during weekdays, it might even feel like you have the place to yourself.

There’s no formal briefing or resort tour either, you get your wristband and off you go. For some, that’s refreshing. For others who love the social warmth of regular Club Meds, it might feel a bit well lonely.

GOs are usually stationed at the bar or Mini Club, and you don’t really see them roaming around interacting with guests. Even during mealtimes, they rarely join you, mostly because Chinese guests tend to value privacy and family time during meals.

That said, if you’re a foreigner and used to the GO interactions, don’t be surprised if they make a beeline for you, it’s a rare chance for them to mingle like the old-school Club Med days.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Nightlife and Entertainment

When it comes to nightlife, the atmosphere at Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis resorts depends heavily on the day of the week. During the quieter weekdays, things slow down considerably. Don’t expect elaborate theatrical performances or high-energy shows like you might find at some of the international Club Med resorts.

Instead, the evenings take on a more relaxed tone, often revolving around casual activities like game nights. These can include card games, board games, or other simple group entertainments designed to help guests unwind without too much fuss.

However, once the weekend rolls around, things begin to shift. The resorts tend to draw larger local crowds on Fridays and Saturdays, and this influx of guests brings a livelier energy to the evening programming.

You might find yourself watching a traditional dance performance one night, or being surprised by a live magic show the next. Interactive stage games are also common, where guests are invited to participate and get a laugh or two, often with the help of the GOs (Gentil Organisateurs).

And of course, no Club Med evening would be complete without the brand’s iconic Crazy Signs, those signature dance routines that everyone, whether first-timer or returning guest, seems to join in on with a smile.

That said, the overall nightlife vibe remains relatively tame. This isn’t a party resort, and most guests are already winding down by 10 PM. The bar tends to close earlier than you might expect, especially if you’re used to the late-night lounges found in Club Med’s beach or mountain resorts.

So if you’re hoping to enjoy a cocktail or two, it’s a good idea to plan ahead and grab your drinks a bit earlier in the evening.

In essence, the entertainment at Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis is more about lighthearted connection than all-night partying. It caters well to families, couples, and groups of friends who are looking for some fun without the noise or intensity of a full-blown nightlife scene.

Timing is Everything

Here’s something most international travelers don’t usually expect, mealtimes in China run on a noticeably earlier schedule. If you’re used to leisurely mornings or late-night dinners, you might find yourself caught off guard.

Breakfast typically starts at around 7:00 in the morning and wraps up by 10:00 AM. It’s a relatively short window, so sleeping in might mean missing out on the morning buffet. Lunch follows soon after, usually beginning at 12:00 PM and ending by 2:00 PM. This rhythm continues into the evening, with dinner service starting as early as 5:30 PM and ending around 8:30 PM.

For many international guests, especially those from Southeast Asia or Europe who are used to eating later, this shift in schedule takes a little adjustment. The idea of heading to dinner before 6:00 PM might seem unusual at first, and if you’re someone who tends to enjoy a late-night snack or supper after 9:00 PM, you may be out of luck, unless you’ve made your way to the bar earlier and stocked up on something light.

It’s not a dealbreaker by any means, but it’s definitely something worth knowing ahead of time. Getting used to the earlier dining rhythm is part of the cultural experience, and once you’ve adjusted, it becomes just another interesting detail that makes the stay feel uniquely local.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Rooms

Room Size
One of the first things you’ll notice when staying at a Club Med Joyview or Urban Oasis is the generous room size. Compared to regular Club Med resorts like Cherating or Bali, the difference is quite noticeable.

Superior Rooms start from 37 m² and go up to 42 m², Deluxe Rooms are about 40 m² to 42 m², Premium Rooms range from 41 m² to an impressive 68 m², and Suites can reach a spacious 80 m², depending on the resort.

The interiors blend a clean, modern style with subtle touches of Chinese design, giving the rooms a unique sense of place.

Amenities
Everything you need is thoughtfully provided. Standard toiletries are included, but what really stands out is the kids’ travel set, basically miniature toiletries just for the little ones, which is a charming touch for families.

Even in the entry-level Superior Rooms, you’ll find a bathtub, something not always guaranteed at other Club Med locations. And in Club Med Urban Oasis Taicang, winter sports lovers will appreciate the built-in shelf for storing ski and snowboard gear.

Themed Rooms
This is where Joyview and Urban Oasis truly stand apart from the classic Club Med experience. Many of these resorts offer themed rooms that make your stay extra memorable. Depending on the property, you might step into a prehistoric adventure with a Jurassic theme, drift among the stars in a Space theme, or enjoy the playful charm of Shaun the Sheep theme.

These themed rooms are seasonal concepts that can change over time, so what’s available now might be replaced by a completely new theme in the future. It’s a creative, family-friendly twist that adds a bit of magic to your holiday.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Childcare Services and Family Space

When it comes to childcare, Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis resorts offer a more limited range of options compared to the regular Club Med resorts. Generally, you’ll find Mini Club Med for children aged 4 to 10 years, with only selected resorts offering Petit Club Med for toddlers aged 2 to 3 years. Just like in other Club Med properties, Mini Club Med is included in the all-inclusive package, while Petit Club Med comes with an additional charge.

An exclusive perk for families staying at Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis resorts is the Family Space. As the name suggests, it’s a dedicated play area for parents and kids to enjoy together, with slides and toys available. It is important to note that this isn’t a supervised zone, and there are no G.Os or staff stationed here, so parents must take full responsibility for watching their children while they play.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Meetings and Events Facilities

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis resorts take Meetings and Events to an entirely new level. Every property comes with spacious meeting rooms that are far from the small, tucked-away spaces you might find elsewhere.

What makes them truly impressive is that each resort also has its own ballroom, perfect for hosting large company events, gala dinners, or even weddings. Some resorts go a step further with dedicated bridal rooms, a chapel, and VIP rooms. Whether you are organising a corporate retreat or planning a destination wedding, these resorts offer everything you need to make the event run smoothly and in style.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Service Experience

When it comes to service, Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis resorts operate a little differently compared to their international counterparts. Instead of the all-encompassing hospitality that defines the traditional Club Med experience, these local resorts function more like typical hotels in China.

You’ll still find friendly GOs on-site, but the style of interaction is usually more reserved and less immersive. Guests check in, enjoy the amenities, dine at the buffet, and go about their day without the kind of personal engagement you might be familiar with at Club Med Bali or Club Med Bintan.

This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, it just reflects a different operational model. For many local guests, it works perfectly. But if you’re used to being greeted by name, pulled into pool games, or offered help at every corner, it may take a moment to reset your expectations.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Check-in and Check-out Times

As for timing, the check-in and check-out process is straightforward and standard across most Joyview and Urban Oasis resorts. Check-in typically begins at 3 PM. However, in some resorts like Urban Oasis Taicang, you may be able to check in as early as 2 PM.

Check-out time is usually set for 11 AM or noon, and it’s best to confirm the exact timing with the front desk upon arrival. During weekends or peak travel periods, especially when the resort is operating at high capacity, the check-in process might take longer than expected. You may find yourself queuing at the lobby, waiting for your room assignment while other guests crowd the front desk.

This can be a bit frustrating, especially if you’ve arrived after a long journey. Patience is key, and arriving earlier than the published check-in time doesn’t always guarantee early access to your room. If you’re traveling with family or a large group, it’s wise to arrive right at the standard check-in time or slightly after to avoid the rush.

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis Transportation and Transfers

Unlike the regular Club Med resorts where transportation is often available, though not included in your package. Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis locations generally require guests to make their own way to the resort.

There are no standard shuttle services or airport transfers offered, which means you’ll need to arrange your own transport ahead of time.

This might mean booking a private car, hailing a ride via a local app like DiDi, or even driving yourself if you’re familiar with the roads. For more remote locations, such as those set in the countryside or closer to mountainous areas, planning your journey in advance is absolutely essential.

What is Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis - Another Type of Transportation
No airport pick-up, but we do have this fun little tour

Some resorts might provide paid transfer services if you call ahead, but this is not the default like it would be at Club Med Cherating or Club Med Phuket.

That said, most of the resorts are within a 1.5 to 2.5-hour drive from major cities, so they’re relatively easy to reach. But don’t count on signage or an obvious resort entrance, some are tucked away in quieter areas that require clear navigation.

So, whether you’re coordinating a driver or figuring out public transport options, be prepared to take a bit more initiative when it comes to getting there.

Alternatively, contact Travelution Holidays to arrange private transfers from the airport.

Final Thoughts: Is It Worth It? Who Is It Best For?

Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis don’t quite follow the classic Club Med formula, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it’s part of what makes them interesting. Whether or not these resorts are right for you really depends on what you want out of your stay.

If you’re someone who enjoys reconnecting with nature, taking long walks in the countryside, or simply unwinding in a peaceful, scenic environment, then Club Med Joyview could be your perfect fit. These locations tend to be tucked away just far enough from major cities to offer a break from the daily grind, but not so far that travel becomes a hassle.

They strike a balance between nature and comfort, giving you the option to stay active or take it slow. Whether you’re joining a yoga class or just sipping tea with a mountain view, Club Med Joyview offers a slower rhythm that suits nature lovers.

On the other hand, if you’re more of a city person who enjoys convenience, Club Med Urban Oasis might be more your style. These resorts are usually located closer to downtown areas, making them ideal for a quick weekend reset without needing to plan a full-blown vacation.

They’re perfect for busy professionals, young families, or anyone who wants a short escape without dealing with long travel times or complicated logistics.

What both Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis have in common is a fresh take on the Club Med brand. Yes, they’re tailored for the Chinese domestic market, which means the food, entertainment, and service style reflect local tastes. But the Club Med DNA is still there.

You’ll still find those familiar touches like buffet-style dining, Amazing Family activities, and the quirky Crazy Signs sessions that Club Med is known for. It’s not quite the full international experience, but there’s just enough of that Club Med essence to make it feel familiar.

One of the major advantages is the pricing. These resorts are typically more affordable than regular Club Med resorts, and there’s a lot more flexibility in how you book your stay. Short one or two-night visits are totally normal, especially if you’re just hoping to stay a day or two in a city before moving to the next.

And surprisingly, the food can be a highlight, especially when occupancy is low. Fewer guests means more attention to detail, more creative plating, and in some cases, à la carte meals that feel more like dining at a boutique hotel than a buffet resort.

That said, you do need to manage expectations. Don’t expect the same service quality or high-energy atmosphere you’d find in places like Club Med Phuket or Club Med Tomamu. Things run at a slower pace, the staff tends to be more hands-off, and the entertainment is often toned down during weekdays.

Weekends, however, can swing in the opposite direction. You’ll see more local families arriving, which can lead to a bustling, energetic vibe. But with that comes a few downsides, longer queues at check-in, more crowded buffets, and less of that calm, boutique feel.

If you’re someone who prefers a quieter, more personal resort experience, weekdays might suit you better. But if you don’t mind the crowd and enjoy seeing the resort come to life, weekends can be fun, just be prepared for the added buzz.

In the end, it comes down to how flexible and open-minded you are. If you’re curious, adaptable, and not expecting the full-blown “classic Club Med” experience, then yes, it’s worth trying. These resorts offer a new kind of stay, one that’s unique to the Chinese domestic market but still carries the warmth and variety that Club Med is known for.

With a little planning and the right mindset, Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis can be a refreshing, easy, and culturally rich getaway, especially if you’re already in China or visiting nearby.

How to Book A Stay at Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis?

Since Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis are created for the Chinese market, booking them isn’t quite as straightforward as regular Club Med resorts. There’s no global booking page you can just click on and reserve your stay.

That’s where we step in. At Travelution Holidays, we bring you the latest deals and competitive rates for every Club Med Joyview and Urban Oasis resort.

We’re not just agents who sell packages, we’re travellers who have been there ourselves. We visit the resorts, walk through the rooms, try the activities, taste the food, and soak in the atmosphere. All so we can share real, first-hand advice with you.
