Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo, Mexico Recognized by The World’s 50 Best Hotels
Luxury meets authenticity on Mexico’s breathtaking Pacific Coast. Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo has been recognized as #55 among the world’s most exceptional properties in the newly launched extended list by The World’s 50 Best Hotels, honoring properties ranked 51–100.
This recognition places the resort among an elite collection of destinations that define excellence in global hospitality — a testament to its remarkable blend of sustainability, architecture, and local culture.
“We are deeply humbled to be recognized among the world’s best hotels, in the incredible company of so many inspiring destinations, in this inaugural extended list,” shares Felix Murillo, General Manager of Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo. “This acknowledgment reflects the dedication and passion of our team, who bring Tamarindo’s natural beauty and cultural richness to life each day for every guest.”
A Sanctuary of Nature and Design
Nestled within a 3,000-acre (1,200-hectare) private nature reserve in Mexico’s pristine Costalegre region, Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo is a masterpiece of modern design in harmony with nature. Over a decade in the making, the resort was envisioned to create a “slow travel” experience, inviting guests to reconnect with the land and local culture.
The property features cliffside and beachfront accommodations, three signature restaurants including Coyul, created in collaboration with acclaimed chef Elena Reygadas, and a spa inspired by ancestral Mexican rituals. The ocean-view golf course and a range of curated experiences — from cooking classes and whale watching to ethnobotanical walks — reflect the resort’s deep respect for its surroundings.
At the heart of the resort’s sustainability vision is Rancho Lola, its low-impact farm dedicated to regenerative agriculture and farm-to-table dining.
Celebrating Global Excellence
The World’s 50 Best Hotels Academy, a panel of over 800 independent experts in travel and hospitality, curated the extended list to showcase properties that redefine exceptional guest experiences. By including fifty additional hotels from six continents, the organization celebrates the diversity, creativity, and innovation shaping the global luxury landscape.
Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo will be honored during the third edition of The World’s 50 Best Hotels Awards Ceremony, taking place October 30, 2025, at London’s iconic Old Billingsgate — a highlight event on the global hospitality calendar.
The Baroque Take
With its blend of environmental stewardship, refined design, and authentic Mexican spirit, Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo exemplifies the future of luxury travel — where true indulgence lies in connection, consciousness, and a sense of place.
