Nine Peruvian hotels stand out in various categories of
The World's Best Awards 2020 issue of Travel + Leisure magazine.
This year's World's Best Awards survey closed on March 2, just before widespread stay-at-home orders were implemented as a result of COVID-19.
"The results reflect our readers' experiences before the pandemic, but we hope that this year's honorees will inspire your trips to come —whenever they may be," reads the publication.
Additionally, it said that while several countries are represented on this year's South American resort list, one country —and specifically one region— has the largest representation.
"Peru's Sacred Valley —a perennial favorite for its Andean villages and Incan ruins— claims four of the 10 spots, including three out of the top four," Travel + Leisure stated.
According to the magazine, the resorts on this list prove that top-notch service, authentic cultural experiences, and superior amenities make the difference in attracting guests.
"Every year for our World's Best Awards survey, Travel + Leisure asks readers to weigh in on travel experiences around the globe —to share their opinions on the top hotels, resorts, cities, islands, cruise ships, spas, airlines, and more," it said.
Hotels were rated on their facilities, location, service, food, and overall value. Properties were classified as city or resort based on their locations and amenities.
