Club Med, the pioneer of premium all-inclusive holidays for over 75 years, has taken home two awards at the 2026 National Travel Industry Awards (NTIA), winning Most Popular Accommodation Group for the third consecutive year and Most Outstanding Sales Executive – Wholesaler, recognising Giovanny Palacio, Business Development Manager for New South Wales.
The two wins are a significant recognition from the Australian travel industry, with the Most Popular Accommodation Group award voted for by Travel Agents across Australia. Club Med extends its sincere thanks to its Travel Agent partners for their continued support, trust and advocacy, which has helped the brand secure the award for three consecutive years, as well as recognising the excellence in its sales team.
Michelle Davies, General Manager for Club Med Pacific and New ESAP Markets said: “To be recognised by our Travel Agent partners as Most Popular Accommodation Group for three years running is an incredible achievement, and we are deeply grateful for the trust and support that has earned us this recognition. To take home a second award this year, Most Outstanding Sales Executive recognising Giovanny Palacio is a wonderful reflection of the strength of our people and the relationships we have built across the travel industry.
“Our Travel Agent partnerships are at the heart of Club Med’s success, so to see this recognised alongside our continued support from the trade is particularly meaningful. It is a testament to the dedication of our team and the trust our partners place in us to deliver memorable experiences for their clients.
“These awards come at an exciting time for Club Med, as we continue to evolve the brand and invest in our resort portfolio and development pipeline, bringing new destinations and experiences to our guests, including the highly anticipated openings of Borneo, Koh Samui and Manado in Indonesia. We’re incredibly proud of what our teams and trade partners have achieved together, and we look forward to continuing to give our partners even more reasons to recommend Club Med to their clients.”
