In April 2024, the MICHELIN Guide debuted a brand new distinction: the MICHELIN Key. While the MICHELIN Star recognizes the most outstanding restaurants in the world, the MICHELIN Key does the same for outstanding hotels.
There are five universal criteria when selecting hotels: excellence in architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, overall personality and character, value for the price, and a significant contribution to the neighborhood or setting.
Just like a MICHELIN-rated restaurant, a MICHELIN-rated hotel can earn One, Two, or Three Keys.
One Key: a very special stay.
Two Keys: an exceptional stay.
Three Keys: an extraordinary stay.
In the Riviera Maya, here are the resorts that have earned keys:
3 Keys:
-Hotel Esencia
2 Keys:
-Banyan Tree Mayakoba
-Etero
-Palmaia
-Rosewood Mayakoba
