We stayed at Club Med Columbus Isle for our honeymoon from May 31 to June 14 and I'm a little surprised by the negative reviews from the same time period. We had a GREAT time and I think most of the negative experiences have more to do with what you bring to the island than the resort itself. The activities... more

My husband had never been on an all-inclusive vacation, and was initially convinced he wouldn't like it, and that he'd be bored. I wanted to find a resort that I knew would change his mind. I had been to Club Med Turkoise before and been very impressed, but wanted one that was a bit quieter for this trip. We both... more

This is a terrific all inclusive, especially if you are into water sports. My wife took the two day novice scuba course in the pool which qualified her for dives to 60 feet. Her instructor Vinny is excellent and demonstrated exceptional patience. He also accompanied the two of us on our first two dives pointing out sea life we might... more

My wife and I went to this resort in mid-April, 2008. I selected it because I wanted to "get away from it all", and the description and location seemed to fit the bill. I was also interested in the SCUBA activities, as we had previously been to the resort on Turks and Caicos which also had diving. The trip started... more

Club Med Columbus Isle was a delightful family vacation for myself, wife, 20 yo son and 18 yo daughter. We have traveled extensively in the Caribbean and Bahamas and know what we want: 1. Smaller property, no crowds 2. No cruise ship access 3. Great beach, water and snorkeling 4. Good food and service This resort fit the bill to... more

Just got back from Columbus Isle. We've been to many Club Meds. This club refelects the "new" Club Med which is more family "Luxury" oriented. Telephones, air conditioning, television etc., which old time club med people woud not recognize. Short version, great vacation! Wonderful diving! Weather was EXCELLENT for the Carib. in summer. 10 of 14 days were perfect. Bright... more

We have to agree with the previous reviewer about the advertised activities of Club Med Columbus Isle being sub-par. While the resort has some good qualities like an excellent beach with white sands and turquoise waters, as well as relatively good and healthy kitchen (and the wonderful ocean and sunset views from the Seacenter bar and restaurant), we had a... more

First, the good: it’s a beautiful place with above-average food and a fantastic beach. The scuba is great. Many of the GO’s (staff) are nice and you will meet plenty of cool people. But now, the bad: Four of us headed down for the week of 5/30-6/7/08. We're all scuba divers, two gals, two guys, mid 20's to mid 30's.... more

Columbus Isle was amazing! The water is unbelievable, a type of blue that is hard to explain. This was our second Club Med vacation (first time was Guadaloupe in 2005) and we were highly impressed with the paradise we were able to call home for a week. Our Oceanfront room was perfect and well worth the money. Whether you want... more
