Chablé Yucatán Named No. 16, Best Hotel in N. America

September 18, 2024 – Chablé Yucatán has been named No.16 and The Best Hotel in North America in the global ranking of The World’s 50 Best Hotels 2024. Following a successful debut in 2023, the second edition of The World’s 50 Best Hotels has been announced at a captivating awards ceremony in London and includes industry-defining hotels from across six continents worldwide.

Last evening’s awards ceremony once again brought together the global travel and hospitality community to celebrate the world’s best hotels. Held at the historic Guildhall, the event showcased exceptional hotel experiences that will inspire consumers, travelers, and hoteliers around the globe.

Located 25 minutes from the historic city of Mérida on Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, Chablé Yucatán is an ultra-luxury property offering the utmost in privacy, tranquility, and wellbeing. Spread over 750 acres in the heart of the Mayan rainforest, the unique hotel is built around a restored 19th-century hacienda. Its iconic spa is the first, and only, to be built around a cenote – a natural cave formation associated with the Yucatán Peninsula and considered sacred by the Mayans. Additionally, Chablé Yucatán’s culinary offering has been thoughtfully curated by one of Mexico’s leading chefs, Jorge Vallejo.
