WHY IT RATES: With their quality, originality and innovation, Eco-friendly Hotel Xcaret Mexico continues to redefine what it means to be all-inclusive, earning them a spot in TIME Magazine's World's Greatest Places 2018 list.-Jessica Zickefoose, TravelPulse Associate Editor
Hotel Xcaret Mexico, Experiencias Xcaret's first five-star, nature-centric and socially responsible resort, has been selected by TIME Magazine as one of the best places in the world to stay in, as featured on its World's Greatest Places 2018 list.
"We are beyond honored and proud to be part of the first edition of the World's Greatest Places list issued by a publication as influential as TIME. This powerful recognition serves as motivation to continue to work as hard as ever in providing our guests unique experiences that reflect the best of Mexican culture," said Marcos Constandse, President of Destino Xcaret and CEO of Experiencias Xcaret.
"Since we entered the industry, we have remained true to our values and to what we want to offer, which is why our brand presents distinctive travel and entertainment offerings found nowhere else in the world," Constandse added.
This year marks the first annual list published by TIME, recognizing 100 destinations that are breaking new ground, leading industry trends and offering visitors an extraordinary experience.
To create the list, TIME compiled nominations from its editors, correspondents, as well as industry experts, and evaluated based on key factors such as quality, originality, innovation, sustainability and influence. The result is a diverse round-up encompassing six continents and 48 countries, including the upscale, one-of-a-kind Hotel Xcaret Mexico in Riviera Maya.
Less than a year after its debut, Hotel Xcaret Mexico has completely redefined what it means to be all-inclusive, thanks to its All-Fun Inclusive® program, which gives guests complimentary access to Experiencias Xcaret's eight nature parks and archaeological tours.
In addition, the hotel is the first and only hotel in the Americas to have been awarded the EarthCheck Certification for Planning and Design in recognition for its sustainability efforts. Hotel Xcaret Mexico's eco-friendly architectural approach, combined with its unmatched reflection of Mexican art and culture, results in a natural refuge in which beaches, rivers, inlets, caves, swimming pools, suspension bridges and the property's Xpiral pyramid coexist within one same space.
