Become familiar with the Club Med lingo before you go
Great Members, G.O, Chief of Village…these are terms you'll come across often and only at Club Med.
Here, we give you a rundown on the main terms you can expect to hear when you're in our resorts and what they mean.
VILLAGE
Village is what we sometimes call our resorts because they're so private, safe, and intimate - and also due to the sense of community and family amongst our guests.
CHIEF OF VILLAGE
Is the resort manager who oversees the on-site team and day-to-day affairs of the resort.
GREAT MEMBERS
or G.M.'s
That's you!
The term 'G.M.' is loosely translated from the original French as 'Genteel Members' but we more commonly use the term 'Great Members' to refer to our guests.

GENTLE ORGANIZERS
or G.O.'s
Is what we call our on-site resort team.
They will keep you entertained with exciting programs, activities and events. They're sometimes called 'the heart and soul of the Club Med experience'.
CRAZY SIGNS
Are choreographed dance numbers that are easy to learn and fun for everyone. They're a unique part of Club Med's festive spirit that you may partake in. Just ask us a G.O. to teach you!
THEME NIGHTS
Invite G.M.'s to mirror the special dress codes that our G.O.'s wear to our evening entertainment and parties. It's entirely up to you, but it's definitely a fun way to share in the Club Med spirit with G.O.'s.
