Luxury

Although Mexico offers unique experiences for travelers of every taste and budget, luxury is its specialty. Demanding travelers find in Mexico the perfect mix of quality, uniqueness and exclusivity.

The country is home not only to outposts of the most exclusive international chains and resorts, but it also offers some intimate—but no less luxurious—boutique hotels of its own, housed in landmark buildings or former haciendas.

Two activities for which Mexico is particularly well-positioned are golf and spas. Top designers such as Jack Nicklaus and Robert Von Hagge have transformed the Mexican terrain into a paradise for golfers of all tastes and skill levels.

And many of these courses are in the desert, along pristine beaches, surrounded by jungle or close to archaeological ruins, quaint villages or other attractions, enabling both golfers and their companions to enjoy an unforgettable stay.

Mexico’s unique courses have attracted the attention not only of leisure golfers, but of pros as well: the Senior PGA Tour, Tour of the Americas, Canadian Tour and EMC-World Cup are only some of the world-class golfing events Mexico has hosted recently.

In all, there are 142 golf courses distributed along 30 of Mexico’s 31 states. Of these, 60 are public or resort courses, attracting golfers from all over the globe.

Meanwhile, modern-day Mexican spas have fused indigenous practices and treatments with the world’s most innovative technologies to offer spa experiences few places in the world can match.

Since prehispanic times, Mexicans have enjoyed the benefits of spas and studied and utilized the healing properties of the country’s immense variety of native plants.

Visitors to Mexican spas can benefit from the same resources and techniques the natives have used for centuries.
