At a time when TripAdvisor accolades pack a heavy punch among travelers plotting their next adventure, El Cid Resorts has scored a KO. 

The brand’s Hotel Marina El Cid Spa & Beach Resort in Riviera Maya and Castilla Beach Hotel in Mazatlan have both chalked up TripAdvisor’s 2017 Travelers’ Choice Awards in the category of Top 25 Hotels for Families in Mexico.

While the former ranks 18th, El Cid Castilla Beach Hotel grabbed 7th place out of the 25 Mexico family resorts receiving nods. What truly puts this into perspective, however, is that this category’s winners rank in the top one percent of TripAdvisor hotels.

Both landed their respective spots for providing unique aspects for parents and kids that range from amenities and cuisine to diversions for ages running the gamut.

Carlos Berdegue, El Cid Resorts’ president and chief executive officer, notes that the company is honored by the pair’s recognition. “El Cid Resorts has always had a long-standing tradition of top-tier service,” says Berdegue. “And we pride ourselves on providing a wide range of memorable experiences for families and travelers of all ages.”

Families are engaged with gorgeous sandy beaches, a full range of watersports, action-packed land diversions, Kids Club for children 4-12, Teens Club for ages 13-17 and free babysitting services so adults can enjoy a break from their offspring.
