Hotel Xcaret Arte: a destination to relax, have fun, and be inspired. 

Hotel Xcaret Arte was born from the love for Mexico; its art, gastronomy, and each of its corners immersed in nature were designed to pay homage to the Mexican richness.

Since its inauguration in 2021, this hotel has generated experiences that lead its guests to live, feel and discover art from a unique proposal, with which it has managed to be awarded by Travel + Leisure (a magazine specialized in the travel sector) as the number one hotel in Mexico and the fourth worldwide.

You may be wondering what it takes to obtain this award. Here's a little bit about it. Every year Travel + Leisure organizes its World's Best Awards survey inviting its readers to evaluate their travel experiences worldwide.

And what are the qualifying factors of this survey? The evaluation considers aspects such as location, facilities and rooms, service, gastronomy, and the value of the experience; and, on this occasion, the result of the survey highlighted Hotel Xcaret Arte with a score of 98.67, placing it in the places as mentioned above.

Now that you know more about this survey, I will tell you the 5 things that make Hotel Xcaret Arte a must-see destination.

In addition to the proximity to points of interest, it is essential to highlight that, as part of the hotel's All-Fun Inclusive™ accommodation, you have airport-hotel, hotel-airport transportation, and transportation to all the Grupo Xcaret parks.
