Club Med Guilin

Club Med Guilin is an all-inclusive resort inside the Yuzi Paradise sculpture park in Yanshan District, about 29 km from the centre of Guilin, Guangxi, China, and roughly 50 km from Liangjiang Airport. The resort is outside the city, so it works as a self-contained holiday base rather than a place from which to walk to the old town. Yuzi Paradise is a large outdoor park of contemporary sculpture set in a karst landscape, and resort guests have access to the sculpture park. The resort has 294 rooms in Deluxe Room, Family Room and Suite categories. Reported prices start at about 700 yuan (roughly 104 US dollars) per person per night on an all-inclusive basis, covering meals, drinks and many activities. As a Club Med resort, the emphasis is on family and group holidays: amenities include all-inclusive dining, activity programmes, children's clubs and a spa. Dining is part of the package, with buffet-style meals and a mix of Chinese and international dishes. The service character is resort-oriented, with organised entertainment and sports aimed at families with children and groups of friends who want to avoid planning each day. Because it lies roughly 29 km from the city, visitors who want to see Elephant Trunk Hill, the Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas or the Li River cruise should plan transfers, which take around 30 to 45 minutes by road depending on traffic. The official website is clubmed.com. The resort suits families who prefer a single-price holiday with children's programmes, and less so independent travellers who want to explore the city on foot. Booking directly or through the website provides package options that combine accommodation, meals and activities.
