Club Med has revealed its renowned all-inclusive mountain concept will be expanding in the United States with a new property at Snowbasin Resort in Huntsville Utah, slated to open December 2024.
The new Utah opening will mark the brand’s first-ever Exclusive Collection (5-Star) resort in the U.S. as well as its first new resort in the U.S. in more than 20 years.
During this week’s inauguration ceremony of Club Med Québec, the brand’s President and CEO, Henri Giscard D’Estaing, announced Club Med’s expansion to Utah.
With more than 20 all-inclusive mountain resort properties across Canada, Europe, and Asia, Club Med says this move further establishes the company as the global leader of mountain vacations and, following the opening of Club Med Québec, the brand’s commitment to further expanding its unrivalled all-inclusive mountain product in the North American market.
“Our pioneering spirit has allowed us to successfully introduce our distinctive all-inclusive model to ski destinations worldwide and reshape what a traditional ski vacation looks like,” remarked Mr. Giscard d’Estaing.
“Our first resort in Canada, Club Med Québec, delivers an unparalleled year-round mountain vacation experience through boundless cultural touchpoints that pay homage to the region, and we look forward to working alongside our partners to showcase Le Massif de Charlevoix’s incredible culture, warm spirit, and remarkable landscape.
Looking ahead, we are delighted to bring Snowbasin their very first lodging property and introduce the spectacular region to travellers from all over the world.”
