"Few family-friendly all-inclusive resorts do it as well as Hotel Xcaret Mexico. That's likely why this resort topped our World's Best list for 2023. The massive upscale, family-friendly resort is one of the largest in the area, with 900 gorgeously designed rooms." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"This is a massive property with 900 rooms, but the layout of the resort is such that it doesn't feel crowded anywhere—they're spread across five distinct 'casas' that are smaller in scale. There are 12 restaurants here, all of which are included in the rate, as well as a variety of pools and a spa that also offers yoga classes and meditation lessons. The best part about staying at any Xcaret property is that you get free entrance to Xcaret parks where you can see Mayan ruins, swim in cenotes, and go snorkeling. There's even an on-property lagoon for snorkeling, kayaking, and swimming."
