The seventh annual Luxury Travel Advisor Awards of Excellence have been announced and Playa Hotels & Resorts won big, collecting two Awards of Excellence. The top travel advisors in the country voted and selected Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall (Montego Bay, Jamaica) as the Top Caribbean Hotel Opening in 2015 and Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos (Los Cabos, Mexico, pictured above) as Top Mexico/Central America Hotel Opening in 2015. The two Playa Hotels & Resorts properties were honored at Luxury Travel Advisor's Ultra Summit, which took place in Dana Point, Calif.

Each year, through its Awards of Excellence, Luxury Travel Advisor strives to recognize suppliers that create lasting impressions. As part of the decision making process, the publication's advisory board, an invitation-only panel made up of influential travel experts, hand-selects nominees from a range of travel products. Luxury Travel Advisor then looks to its travel advisor readers to determine Awards of Excellence finalists.

"We are truly honored to have received such prestigious recognitions, particularly from the travel advisor community," said EVP and Chief Marketing Officer of Playa Hotels & Resorts, Kevin Froemming. "Accolades like these underscore our company's commitment to excellence, and the hard work - and heart - of our staff."

Playa Hotels & Resorts offers guests a portfolio of luxury, all-inclusive resort brands including Awards for Excellence winners, Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall and Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos, as well as resorts situated in prime locations in Mexico and the Caribbean. Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall, located along the sapphire waters of Montego Bay, offers guests seven unique restaurants, a world-class spa, beach butlers and a rum sommelier, along with a variety of activities to be enjoyed by the whole family.

Perched on the tip of the Baja Peninsula, Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos is an oasis offering spectacular views of the Sea of Cortez, four sparkling pools, seven culinary experiences and an impressive square footage of meeting and event space.
