Michès Playa Esmeralda Dominican Republic

Giving Club Med a second chance turned out to be an excellent decision, and we truly had a wonderful holiday. The experience in Michès exceeded our expectations and genuinely helped restore our confidence in the brand.

I would especially like to highlight Iara Correia, who was absolutely exceptional in the way she welcomed us and looked after our family throughout the stay. Just to be very clear, our feedback has nothing to do with the fact that she is Portuguese — she was simply an outstanding host. Her professionalism, attention to detail, warmth, and constant availability made a real difference and set the tone for the entire experience.

We would also like to mention Yorran Alves from the water sports team, who was equally remarkable in his care, attention, and enthusiasm, always ensuring that every activity was both enjoyable and well looked after.

It was also very interesting for us to experience two resorts from the Exclusive Collection that are, in practice, quite different. While both Seychelles and Michès belong to the same collection, Michès felt much more cosy, relaxed, and family-oriented

This was our sixth trip to Miches and, as always, we had a fabulous time.

Theo has been a spectacular CdV for two years and has got the hotel running back to the same level as when Youssef was CdV, which I didn’t think would be possible. He will be really missed when he moves on at the end of the season. Theo has created a brilliant team and it has been wonderful to see the local GOs move up the ranks as well. All of the GOs made our stay great this year, in particular the mini club which is running brilliantly and both our children loved it (so much so that when I went to pick them up early, each time they wanted to stay!) I want to mention the below GOs for really standing out and helping us. Many of these guys know us from previous stays and they always make sure we have what they know we like in our room, and go above and beyond with our kids. I hope I haven’t forgotten anyone…

Thank you all so much and we all look forward to seeing you next year! Miches has a very special place in our hearts.

This was our third trip to this Club Med resort. We keep coming back because this Club Med has everything we want for a family beach vacation. We are a group of 18 people ages 15-86. The rooms are spacious, good linens, and very clean. The beach is beautiful. No seaweed which is often an issue at other beach locations. Tons to do. Tennis, pickleball, beach volleyball, water sports and fitness classes. This year I noticed there were many more classes especially yoga. The gym is an area that is lacking. It is very small. But the classes are solid. The pool is pretty. Food is great. Clean and lots of variety. Staff is excellent. Very responsive and always there to help. We love the relaxed, kind and fun atmosphere of Club Med resort. We will be back.

Amazing family vacation with plenty of sports and special activities.
This is not our first stay in a Club med so we knew what to expect but the GO team (members of the team there) at Miches went above and beyond to make it another memorable stay. Each of our 4 kids got the most out of their time and I had the privilege and pleasure to do circus and catching again with the amazing team of Mailys, Joel, Nacho, Candela and Cooper. I trusted them fully and they made my experience truly memorable:)
We also met other team members and guests we knew from other club med stays from the past - what a fun time:)

Candela, Nacho, Joel, Mailys, Cooper, and Quentin were amazing! They truly elevated my entire Club Med experience. They were so kind and insightful when they gave me corrections for trapeze. Thank you all so much!
