WASHINGTON - Jan. 28, 2014 - PRLog -- Royal Hideaway Playacar (http://www.occidentalhotels.com/resort/royal-hideaway-playacar) – the luxury all-inclusive resort from Occidental Hotels & Resorts in Playa del Carmen - has received recognition as one of the 2014 Best Hotels in Mexico by U.S. News & World Report (http://travel.usnews.com/).

Set on a quiet stretch of white sand beach along the idyllic shores of Playa del Carmen, Royal Hideaway is the area’s favored destination for a luxury escape to the tropics. Each of the resort’s 200 beautifully appointed rooms and suites are housed in intimate Mexican-colonial style villas and are accompanied by private villa concierges, furnished terraces and indulgent hydro-massage tubs.

Guests of the resort enjoy a variety of gourmet dining options from six different venues highlighting cuisines such as traditional Italian, authentic Mexican and Japanese delicacies. The hotel also offers a selection of recreational activities such as SCUBA diving, cooking classes and live entertainment as well as luxury amenities including a cascading infinity pool, bi-level oceanfront solarium decks and a full service spa.

“We are incredibly honored to have Royal Hideaway Playacar ranked amongst the Best Hotels in Mexico stated Jaime Buxo, Managing Director of Occidental Hotels & Resorts. “A true reflection of the Occidental brand, Royal Hideaway offers guests a wonderful selection of luxury amenities, diverse dining options and unique activities while the staff provides consistent and thoughtful service. We are very proud of their dedication to creating a memorable experience for each and every guest.”

The 2014 Best Hotels recognize hotels that were ranked based on an unbiased methodology that includes the collective opinion of travel experts and guests, expressed through online reviews and ratings. To create this year's rankings, U.S. News factored in the prominence of industry awards a hotel receives along with its reputation among travel experts and guests. In total, 1,693 U.S. hotels, 271 Caribbean hotels, 342 Mexican hotels and 223 Canadian hotels were evaluated for the 2014 rankings.

Hotels named "Best" in their destination are typically the properties that have ranked the top 30 percent of U.S. News-evaluated properties in that region. A smaller, more selective group of hotels that are ranked in the top 10 percent of all ranked luxury hotels in the United States, the Caribbean, Mexico or Canada received a "Best Hotels in the USA," "Best Hotels in the Caribbean," "Best Hotels in Mexico" or "Best Hotels in Canada" award, depending on their location.

"The 2014 Best Hotels were selected because they meet the highest standards of travel experts and guests alike," said Miriam Weiner, travel editor for U.S. News. "These properties are renowned in the travel industry for their luxury amenities and quality customer service."
