Club Med Insider

Why is the beer at Turkoise such bilge? (Turks Head Lager/Amber). The stuff is really vile. If it ice cold it's drinkable, but there is no such thing as an ice cold beer at Sharkies, nor at the main bar. In Club Med Cancun, one gets to drink Corona (very good) or Modelo Negra (very good). In Club Med La Caravelle on the island of Guadalupe, the beer is Stella Artois (excellent). In Turkoise, the only choice is Turks Head! But, you can purchase a 12 ounce bottle of Budweiser for $5!!! Here's a tip for you beer drinkers visiting Turkoise. Throw a 30 pack of your favorite brew into your check-in luggage. Put your clothes into your carry on!

Richard Kralick says I have heard that the beer/liquor at Turks is now low class. I have been there many times, but if I can't get a cold beer, I'll go elsewhere. Turks should be the jewel of Club Med Carib, but it looks and sounds like CM is cutting too many corners. Posted July 27, 2009, 11:35 pm

Joe says I was there in May. I get down there regularly for various reasons and get some diving too. I know some of the senior GO pretty well. Seems the alcohol policies were implemented by the current Chief of Village Fred. None were privvy to whether the word came from corporate or it was his own doing. Yes the change in venue is the pitts. I also remember the days of beads. Posted September 29, 2009, 12:23 pm
