The Riviera Nayarit’s hotel and service infrastructure was endorsed with its own share of the Diamonds presented worldwide by the AAA (American Automobile Association).
Fourteen hotels and six restaurants located in Nuevo Vallarta, The Mainstream, and Punta de Mita, the Riviera Nayarit’s Glamour Peninsula, were chosen for this prestigious accolade.
A total of 10 hotels received the 4 Diamond Award and four received the 5 Diamond Award; five restaurants were awarded 4 Diamonds and one received 5 Diamonds. With 3 Diamonds there are 26 restaurants and 13 hotels in the Riviera Nayarit.
“Riviera Nayarit is really starting to show its outstanding quality and service and variety of choices”, said Tony Perrone, AAA Manager for Latin America.
This year (2015) there were only eight hotels in the world that received the top 5 Diamond Award, among them the Grand Luxxe in Nuevo Vallarta. The rest were endorsed with their same yearly awards—some of them having received them for over 10 years.
