La Casa de la Playa, Grupo Xcaret’s exquisite ultra-luxury adults-only boutique hotel, has garnered the coveted AAA Five Diamond designation for 2023. This is the third of Grupo Xcaret’s lengthy roster of properties and attractions to have received this honor, bestowed on less than 1% percent of the more than 23,000 AAA Diamond lodgings.
“We are honored to receive the acclaimed Five Diamond designation from AAA,” said Alfredo Magaña, general manager of La Casa de la Playa, in a press statement. “This award reflects the commitment of our team to provide every guest with exceptional hospitality throughout their visit, offering unforgettable Exclusively Your Way experiences and ensuring that every visitor to La Casa de la Playa feels right at home.”
Luxe Experiences at La Casa de la Playa
A personalized experience, service and unique accommodations are only part of what makes this hotel a special getaway and a Five Diamond property. This 63-oceanfront-suite property has become a favorite of celebrities (Angelina Jolie, Lupita Nyong’o, Alexander Ludwig and Ke Huy Quan, to name a few) thanks to its privacy and amenities, which include a dedicated personal butler, terraces with hammocks and private plunge pools and an architecture that makes the most of its location. The decor is steeped in Mexican culture and includes handcrafted pieces commissioned by local artisans.
Holistic experiences are on tap at this boutique resort, meaning there’s plenty to revitalize the mind, body and soul, including ancestral rituals at the award-winning Muluk Spa. You can book clients on private dinners at a cenote in the jungle, on luxury yacht tours on the Mexican Caribbean waters, or a wine, mezcal, or tequila tasting with sommeliers. And did we mention a candy boutique by master chocolatier Mao Montiel? It’s the perfect place to pick up a piece of something delectable to savor whilst reading a book in the oceanfront library.
Then, of course, there are the Michelin-starred culinary experiences curated by Xcaret’s Culinary Collective, which include some of the country’s finest chefs (think Chef Virgilio Martinez, who earned first place on The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list, just to name one). And, this being a Grupo Xcaret property, your clients can tap into the Exclusively Your Way experiences that include a private dinner at Xcaret Park, a cavern tour at Xplor Park or a behind-the-scenes tour of the Mexico Espectacular show at Xcaret Park’s Gran Tlachco Theater.
