U.S. News ranks the best resorts using an unbiased approach by analyzing a number of reviews from both guests and professional travel experts as well as taking into consideration hotel class ratings. The resorts are evaluated using a combined scoring methodology of those three factors and the hotels and resorts with the highest scores are selected as the best.
The 2022 rankings are based on an evaluation of more than 35,000 hotels and resorts across Canada, the U.S, Mexico, Bermuda, Europe, and the Caribbean. Resorts that rank in the top 10 per cent also receive a Gold Badge and resorts that rank in the top 30% receive a Silver Badge.
