What happens when you combine the fun of unraveling a mystery with the reward of chocolatey treats? You get the first-ever speakeasy for kids.

Families staying at Club Med Michés Playa Esmeralda are in for an extra special treat thanks to the new Secret Chocolate Room. When guests dine at the family-friendly restaurant Cacao & Co, the kids at the table will receive clues to crack the code needed to enter the hidden room. Once they discover the location of the door, they can enter the secret code which opens the door with a fanfare of sounds and light, giving them access to a chocolate dream come true.

The Secret Chocolate Room features wall-to-wall, unlimited sweets. The choices include three different chocolate fountains, as well as candy, cakes, ice cream and more. The room was designed in partnership with Xocolat and all of the sweets are made with locally-sourced, premium cocoa.

In addition to this incredible dessert extravaganza, Cacao & Co offers a dining experience tailor-made for families with colorful interior design, collaborative dishes, like hands-on guacamole preparation, and fun-sized dishes made to be shared. Club Med Michés Playa Esmeralda opens Nov. 23, 2019 in the Dominican Republic.
