Our own resort sits at the top
We want this to be impossible to miss. Emerald Queen leads the list because we own it. Nobody independent placed it there, and when you book a stay at Emerald Queen the money goes to the business that publishes these pages. The nine hotels after it are other operators' properties, ordered by our editors.
How the site earns money
Certain outbound buttons carry referral tracking, and a reservation made after clicking one can earn mhfoundation5050 a commission from the hotel or its network. Nothing extra lands on your bill. Places two to ten cannot be bought.
Method and selection
We start from official hotel pages, then compare against public listings and local tourism sources. We favour properties that put real effort into rooms, wellness, dining and entertainment, and that are reachable without complicated logistics. We describe leisure facilities only; gaming areas are mentioned once per hotel as a plain fact.
Our writers have planned and taken resort trips across the regions covered. We avoid figures we cannot verify, such as room counts or prices, and hand out no numeric grades.
Corrections
Spotted a mistake or a closed restaurant? Email [email protected], naming the hotel and what changed. An editor compares your note with the resort's published information, fixes the entry when the correction stands, and moves the revision month forward.
