National Geographic Traveler says..."A 140-acre isthmus resort with water galore: calm lagoon, Caribbean bay, pounding Atlantic. Ocean waves do the entertaining just beyond the simply furnished suites (some TV-free) with private verandas, big windows, outdoor garden showers. Captain a Boston Whaler for island hopping, bike on trails lined by wild nutmeg and frangipani. Island-born chef infuses the menu with flavorsome Caribbean attitude. 31 suites." -From National Geographic Traveler
Conde Nast Traveler says..."Our experience surpassed our wildest expectations." This stone resort accessible only by boat or helicopter means "no hustle and bustle." At the hilltop restaurant, the "food and desserts are to die for!" "Service is impeccable." From rooms in white and turquoise, with bright Caribbean artwork and furnished verandas, the views of the Atlantic are "simply breathtaking." " -From Conde Nast Traveler

Ingeniously sculpted on a cliff with an extraordinary tiered architecture, La Casa Que Canta is both striking and beautiful. Superb views over Zihuatanejo Bay combine with impeccable service, a delightful spa, Mexican art and superb cuisine. Traditional Mexican design meets sophisticated chic in suites decorated with Mexican folk art and hand-crafted, painted furniture. All have terraces with breathtaking views of the sea. It is all magical but the infinity pool with a backdrop of rock, palms and tumbling flowers is sublime. Dine on Mexican seafood specialities, and then pick up some tips in cookery lessons with the chef. Afterwards, indulge in a safflower salt body scrub, then venture out to sea for a romantic sunset tour or deep-sea fishing adventure. La Casa Que Canta is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.

National Geographic Traveler says..."A reclusive cliff-dweller stair-stepping its way down to the swirling surf. Big romantic rooms (flower petal designs on bed) with terraces and balconies poised for views. No real beach (Playa La Ropa is 100 yards away). Languorous alternative resort: Infinity-edge pool mimics ocean horizon; walking the grounds is a folkloric tour of Mexico. 29 rooms."-From National Geographic TravelerConde Nast Traveler says..."Adobe architecture at this multi-tiered resort above Playa La Ropa includes "beautifully appointed rooms with ocean views named for traditional songs. White walls and tile floors frame enlarged terraces with flower arrangements and palm frond roofs. Mexican platters at the restaurant are "lovely with fresh fish," and the service is "helpful in a natural, unscripted way." Alas, "there isn't much to do." -From Conde Nast Traveler

Travel + Leisure says...\"The word casita is a misnomer for the first upscale resort in Peru's dramatic Colca Canyon. These “little housesa (20 in all, scattered on 60 acres in one of the deepest canyons in the Americas) are 290 square feet apiece, each with a private pool. Here, luxury and authenticity go hand in hand: a day might start with condor-spotting or a trip to a pre-Incan village, followed by a massage with plant-infused oils under giant eucalyptus trees. At night in your chandelier-lit guest room, you could almost forget that you're in the Andean outbackauntil you step out on the terrace beneath a blanket of stars.\"-From www.travelandleisure.com

Travel + Leisure says..."This private-island retreat is all about serenity and catering to classic desert-isle fantasies. The resort is committed to delivering in quantity everything the genre is known for, especially peace and privacy. Add to that a staff-to-guest ratio of two-to-one, atypical service for the region (it's friendly and professional), and five untrafficked beaches for the thirteen sunny two-story bungalows that make up the property's 52 rooms on 1,800 acres. Elopers are common at this resort, and no wonder: the staff organizes everything before your arrival, leaving nothing for you to do but say, 'I do.' If marriage isn't in the cards, a couple can still take advantage of the countless coves, accessible only by sea. Boatmen will drop you off with just a picnic basket and your imagination. You don't have to be a guest to use the spa, which welcomes day-trippers for the ultimate indulgence: 5 hours of massages and body buffing in a private couples suite." -From Travel + LeisureConde Nast Traveler says..."It's an unspoiled wonderland." The spa on Big Reef Bay uses local ingredients like cactus fiber for exfoliation. A-frame chalets with hammocks have oversize balconies and views of Deadman's Bay Beach that are "truly unbelievable."
