| Villa del Palmar Beach Resort & Spa | | Puerto Vallarta – The Villa Group, a leading privately owned real estate hospitality development company, has been awarded a group of prestigious awards this month.
Two of The Villa Group’s Cabo San Lucas properties have been nominated for the 2008 Travel Age West “WAVE Awards” (Western Agent’s Vote of Excellence). Villa del Arco Beach Resort and Spa (Cabo San Lucas) has been nominated as the best new property in Mexico and Villa del Palmar Resort and Spa (Cabo San Lucas) has been recognized in the category of Best Family Resort.
Recognizing the outstanding qualities and services of travel suppliers, the two-pronged awards program begins with the selection of the “Editor’s Pick” winners. These recipients are selected by careful review by the Editor-in-Chief (Ken Shapiro) and his team at Travel Age West. The review methods included product analysis, on-site visits, agent surveys and on-line research. Part two of the process consists of the formal WAVE balloting during the month of April inviting professionals throughout the 14 Western states and readers of TAW to vote for the best-of-the-best from the list of Editor’s Pick award recipients in all award categories. The final awards will be announced the first week in June at The Four Seasons, Beverly Hills.
In addition, Orbitz named Villa del Palmar Beach and Spa Resort Puerto Vallarta as the Top Hotel in Mexico for Year over Year growth; The Villa Group was named the top chain in Mexico for growth on Orbitz as well.
“These awards are a great source of pride for us,” said Alejandro De La Garza, Director of Corporate Sales for The Villa Group. “They are from the industry, but reflect on our growing popularity among consumers. Our guests enjoy breathtaking beach front locations, world-class service and excellent amenities. These awards demonstrate that we are one of Mexico’s finest hospitality entities!”
