When it comes to world-class resorts in Mexico, there is no shortage of options. But among these exceptional choices, one dazzling resort on the Riviera Maya takes the crown.
In the recent edition of Travel + Leisure’s ‘The World’s Best Awards 2023’, Xcaret Arte, an all-inclusive resort, claimed the number one spot in Mexico’s best resort category, a testament to the exceptional experience it offers to its guests.
Travelers evaluated resorts based on several criteria, including rooms and facilities, location, service, food, and overall value. So, you can imagine the fierce competition Xcaret Arte faced, including last year’s champion, the incredible Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal in Baja California Sur.
So, what made Xcaret Arte stand out among the competition? Let’s dive into the details and discover why travelers chose this stunning hotel as Mexico’s best.
Stylish Accommodations
Xcaret Arte is located south of Playa del Carmen, just under a two-hour drive from Cancun. The luxurious all-inclusive resort welcomed its first guests in July 2021, and it’s clear that it has quickly become a favorite among travelers.
This isn’t surprising when you consider the remarkable standard of quality the resort offers.
In terms of design, Xcaret Arte is simply a masterpiece. As the name implies, the resort places a strong emphasis on art, with its architecture and composition paying homage to a number of renowned Mexican artists.
