Hangzhou is the host city for the 2022 Asian Games.
Due to the Olympics, Hangzhou has seen the construction of numerous experience venues and hotels in recent years. Among them, the Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort is the one that caught my eye the most.
Today marks the Super New Product Day of Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort and Fliggy. Fliggy asked me to write about this resort.
So, I made a special trip before its opening. When writing about hotels, we must have personally visited, seen, and experienced them. Imagining things without basis is irresponsible to our readers.
This place gives me the same vibe as the Shougang Industrial Park in Beijing. The Lvsheng Resort, where the Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort is located, will host events such as track cycling, mountain biking, road cycling, BMX, triathlon, and open water swimming during the Asian Games.
The image below is the venue for the Asian Games track cycling, right next to the Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort.
Additionally, this hotel is adjacent to the Qianfen Line, which is considered the most beautiful section of the Qiandao Lake loop drive. The scenery here is breathtaking, with mountains and waters everywhere, clear and serene.
The surrounding environment has been selected as one of the “Biodiversity 100+ Global Classic Cases” by the United Nations, boasting an incredibly rich variety of flora and fauna.
The Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort is also designated as the official accommodation for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, catering specifically to athletes from various countries. Therefore, the hardware here is top-notch.
I have high expectations for this Club Med Joyview. Qiandao Lake is within the Greater Hangzhou area, and you know how popular staycation hotels are in Hangzhou, especially those with a family-friendly focus. It’s hard not to become a hit.
Today is the opening promotion for the Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort.
So, in today’s article, I will provide a detailed introduction to this Club Med Joyview. At the end of the article, you will find the opening prices for this hotel.
First, let’s talk about the location.
The Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort is situated in the Lvsheng Resort, Qiandao Lake, Chun’an, Zhejiang, which is part of the provincial greenway. The greenery here is superb.
Here’s an aerial view of the hotel. The Qiandao Lake here is quite impressive, isn’t it?
The Lvsheng Resort excels in its amenities.
Surrounding it are the Asian Games cycling venue, Green 7 Energy Park, Asian Games Avenue, Asian Games Pier, and Jinshanping Asian Games Town, which integrates cultural display and dining entertainment functions.
Let me introduce them one by one.
Green 7 Energy Park
This is a theme park with light adventure and sports as its highlights. It features a variety of sporty activities such as rock climbing, zip-lining, rappelling, and water hammock trampolines. It’s quite suitable for families and couples.
The water hammock trampoline is quite interesting, suspended above Qiandao Lake, offering a thrilling experience.
There are multiple climbing routes of varying difficulties for rock climbing.
The zip-line allows you to glide from one island to another across Qiandao Lake.
The vibrant park is a 10-minute walk from the hotel, or you can request a golf cart from the hotel for transportation.
Jinshanping Asian Games Town
I absolutely adore this town; it’s not an exaggeration to say it feels like a paradise on earth.
The village is home to many interesting shops, including restaurants, bookstores, cafes, and craft stores.
There are also many artisans in the village, and various activities are organized.
Some water sports are also available in this Asian Games Town.
Asian Games Pier
This pier, which will host water sports events during the Asian Games, is currently used by the Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort for outdoor yoga sessions.
All these attractions are close to the Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort. If you venture further, there are the Red Leaf Bay Scenic Area (17 km), Wenyuan Lion City (24 km), Tianyu Mountain (25 km, offering a panoramic view of Qiandao Lake), Qiandao Lake Bridge (26 km), and Qinchuan Village (32 km)….
And, of course, the most beautiful cycling route in Qiandao Lake—the Qianfen Line.
Next, let’s talk about the hotel.
Club Med, as you know, focuses on entertainment, especially for family outings. Their key personnel are G.O.s, which stands for “GENTIL ORGANISATEUR” in French, meaning “kind organizer” or “gracious host.” G.O.s are great with kids, and I’ve never met a child who doesn’t like them.
Joyview is Club Med’s short-haul resort, offering domestic boutique vacation experiences for families in major Chinese cities. Located near core cities, they are within a 2-3 hour drive, perfect for weekend getaways with kids.
The main difference from Club Med is that Club Med offers an all-inclusive package, often charged per person, while Joyview charges per room, including breakfast.
This makes Joyview more cost-effective. Examples include Joyview resorts in Anji, Beidaihe, and Yanqing.
The Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort has a total of 222 rooms. In addition to the facilities mentioned above in the Luneng Shengdi Asian Games Village, the hotel also has an indoor sports arena offering activities such as rock climbing, basketball, badminton, and table tennis.
Indoor heated swimming pool, yoga room
A child club that offers babysitting services.
In terms of activities, Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort has quite a few options.
These mainly include exploring the biodiversity around the hotel; some sports activities combined with the Asian Games theme; and activities unique to Club Med Joyview, such as the nightly performances prepared by the G.O.s at Yi Bar.
This is a must-visit, as the party theme changes every night. And it’s free of charge.
As for the rooms, since this resort is brand new and part of the Asian Games infrastructure, their rooms are far superior to most of the Club Med properties I’ve stayed in.
To be honest, rooms are usually a weak point for other Club Meds, but this one is a plus. The basic rooms are 40㎡ and mostly come with balconies, which is quite nice.
The bathrooms are all equipped with double sinks and bathtubs.
The amenities are from Fosun’s own Dead Sea mud skincare brand, AHAVA, in large, eco-friendly bottles.
Some of the room details are also quite good. The background wall with fishing boats and the metal reading lamp both look great.
Now, let’s talk about the food. The all-day dining restaurant here is called Cai Yu, offering three meals a day. Like most Club Med Joyview restaurants, it has both buffet and a la carte options for Chinese cuisine.
Cai Yu is a beautiful restaurant.
Club Med restaurants are never known for their dishes, but this one is actually quite good.
Finally, here’s the opening promotion price for Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort.
Club Med Joyview Qiandao Lake Resort 2-night stay with breakfast + 2 adults and 1 child buffet dinner + 2 adults and 1 child nature trail hike + 2 adults and 1 child cycling + 300 yuan voucher package (50 yuan voucher for international restaurant buffet; one special cocktail at the bar; 100 yuan voucher for SPA; 100 yuan voucher for Green No. 7 Adventure Park double adventure ticket or unlimited ticket), 1980 yuan.
Valid until August 31, 2022. Additional charge of 200 yuan/night on Fridays in June, 600 yuan/night on Saturdays. Additional charge of 200 yuan/night on weekdays, 600 yuan/night on Fridays, and 800 yuan/night on Saturdays in July-August.
The overall package, in addition to the room with breakfast, includes activities like nature trail hiking and cycling, perfect for family vacations or light adventure enthusiasts.
If it rains, you can also choose indoor rock climbing and yoga. While there are many family-friendly hotels in Qiandao Lake, Club Med Joyview’s resort stands out with its rich and nature-focused activities. Kids can have fun and learn a lot here.

In my opinion, since the package is refundable if not used, you might as well buy it now. If you find something better later, you can switch, and if not, you can keep it for yourself. The advantage of a refundable package is that you can always change your mind.
The Thousand Island Lake is most expensive during the months of June, July, and August. After the summer vacation, the prices should drop somewhat.
The price for one night including breakfast and additional benefits is 1080 yuan.
At 9 AM, there will be a flash sale for the first 200 sets, priced at 990 yuan, with the same additional charges.

Although the Hangzhou Asian Games have been postponed, just like the Shougang Park in Beijing, there will be a certain driving effect after the Asian Games.
The Club Med Joyview Thousand Island Lake Resort is the designated reception hotel for the Asian Games. Being able to stay and experience it in advance will be a quite special experience.
