1. Club Med
The granddady of them all, Club Med originated the all-inclusive concept, focusing on luxury and giving the idea cachet from the start. Founded in France in 1950, it originally centered on sunny Mediterranean locales but quickly spread to tropical and winter destinations. After trying out new strategies to attract a younger and more budget-focused clientele in the 1990s, Club Med recently renovated many of its older resorts, returning its focus to affluent, active families looking for upscale amenities. The worldwide resorts are known for laid-back atmospheres and a cornucopia of outdoor activities, including dining and dancing, that encourage mingling with fellow guests.
