All–Inclusive Hard Rock Hotels
Mexico and Dominican Republic
Riders are for Rock Royalty … and this is where you start.
We're all familiar with riders, that long list of demands entertainers insist on to ensure a great performance. Well, with the Rock Royalty program at the all–inclusive Hard Rock Hotels, they write one and fulfill it all for you.
In this category, the trappings are A–list. You get a personal assistant on call, who will make sure that your express luggage delivery occurs as promised and that your in–room premium liquor dispenser is full upon your arrival. You also receive extra services like a free shoe shine with your stay, in addition to material things like an umbrella, beach towel, bathrobe, loofah, pillow menu, espresso machine, and mini–bar snacks in your room. Most importantly, you get first crack at the Bali beds on the beach so that you can lounge in true rock star glam for the 'Gram.
Ritz–Carlton Hotels & Resorts
Worldwide
When one of the world’s preeminent luxury brands steps it up, it’s a leap above the standard.
Every Ritz–Carlton hotel is different; every concept is unique and as much a testament to its location as to the chain's traditions. And so, each Club Level boasts its own charms. For instance, in Grand Cayman, they offer a DIY juice bar of local juices as well as complimentary laptop usage for road warriors. In Cancun, special chef's presentations and weekly authentic Mexican feasts take place in the lounge. And in Aruba, the Bloody Mary Bar and mixology classes are can't–misses.
But no matter what #RCMemories you're trying to make, all of them offer a multitude of complimentary food offerings by their renowned staff in the Club Lounge; a selection of beer, wine, and cocktails on the house at said lounge; a dedicated concierge; and an exclusive beach cabana in applicable locales.
Karisma Hotels & Resorts
Riviera Maya, Mexico
Getting to “Gourmet” is great, but “Connoisseur” is a status we should all covet.
Everybody now knows that Gourmet Inclusive® goes beyond good grub. It's a term Karisma Hotels & Resorts uses to convey a sense of the finer things and attention to detail. Their Connoisseur Collection—a special category limited only to operators like Travel Impressions—is a new pinnacle in those characteristics, upping the ante with privileges that begin even before arrival. For example, a dedicated phone line to your concierge connects you ahead of time to customize your in–suite bar, schedule dinner reservations, spa treatments, activities, and any other special request.
Upon arrival, a VIP meet and greet leads to your being escorted to your suite or villa, where you'll be checked in and provided an orientation by your own majordomo. A personal cell phone keeps you in touch with him or her during your stay, so you can book those priority restaurant reservations, specially discounted spa services and premium wines, and choose what pillows and aromatherapy you'd like incorporated into your stay. What's standard is the bottle of sparkling wine, daily stocked premium bar, espresso machine, fruit basket, dessert with nightly turndown, and 24–hour room service.
Grand Wailea, a Waldorf Astoria Resort
Maui, Hawaii
Say “aloha” to a better way to “Let Hawaii Happen.”
Here at one of the most highly regarded hotels in Maui, a stay already means much more than just a place to lay your head. Join the Napua Club and it becomes an elite experience. Guests in these five categories get a dedicated check–in and concierge and complimentary WiFi to use throughout their stay. Every day, there's a continental breakfast spread, plus cocktails and hors d'oeuvres in the early evening in one of the two private lounges reserved for Club members.
And of course, this is merely in addition to the private lanai that comes standard for all of these categories, and "VIP comforts" that include novel offerings from afternoon tea to a Chocolate Decadence hour, in addition to 715 – 5,500 square feet in which to spread out.
Secrets Resorts & Spas and Dreams Resorts & Spas
The Caribbean, Central America & Mexico
Our preference is Preferred.
These brands have already made a name for themselves by offering Unlimited–Luxury®. But that doesn't mean that they can't keep pushing to find that limit. Enter Preferred Club status, a premium category of suites featuring their own private beach and/or pool area with comfortable lounge chairs and wait service, all from the best locations on the property. Also exclusive to this room category: access to a private lounge with hot and cold snacks throughout the day, desserts, and liquors, plus Club–only breakfast and à la carte lunch at certain restaurants.
This and upgraded mini–bar and bath amenities, a free pillow menu, and complimentary WiFi are ubiquitous at all of the properties that offer this category, regardless of which beach it's located on. There's no wonder why we prefer Preferred.
Paradisus by Melia
Cancun, Mexico & Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
Why be common when you can be Royal?
We can't think of any reason, which is why we're vouching for Royal Service at Paradisus Cancun, Paradisus Punta Cana, and Paradisus Playa del Carmen La Perla. Not only do you get the usual trappings of Club services like preferential reservations for specialty restaurants, the spa, and activities; a private pool and swim–up bar; exclusive beach area; and an additional breakfast and lunch restaurant for this category only, but you also get a litany of additional trappings.
One major benefit is a personal butler who can assist you throughout your stay. Upon private check–in at the bi–level Royal Service Lounge, you're given a cell phone so that anything you need is only a call away. Also in this lounge: daily continental breakfast, snacks, coffee, premium beverages, and evening cocktails. The Royal Service Meeting Room is at your disposal as well, as is an exclusive fitness center, so you can sweat in style.
Iberostar Hotels & Resorts
Caribbean & Mexico
Remember when you used to get awarded gold stars? Yeah, it’s like THAT.
There used to be no better feeling than knowing you'd earned another mark toward special treatment. Well, now you get to decide that you deserve it with Iberostar's Star Prestige level, offering perks that in and of themselves deserve gold stars.
We're talking about the rooms with the best views, rooms that also include bathrooms with magnifying mirrors, available bathrobe and slippers for your stay, a pillow menu to choose from, and an upgraded hair dryer. However, it's the services that really shine. Luggage collection, evening turndown, and ice service are offered to guests of this category, as is exclusive access to a sun terrace with bar service, Balinese beds and sun loungers with mattresses, a VIP lounge with an open bar and a well–connected relaxation area, and premium WiFi.
Barceló Hotels & Resorts
Caribbean & Mexico
Barceló is laying down the benefits for the title of “best club, bar none.”
With such a broad range of properties spread across the Western Hemisphere's most beautiful beaches, booking at just one Barceló is a tough decision. You know what's not, though? An upgrade to the Royal Level, no matter which property you choose.
Although the benefits vary by hotel, there are a few things that are guaranteed when you go for the upgrade. For instance, a private section of the property's beach. A private gourmet restaurant and lounge area, or a private à la carte restaurant within the Royal Level Lounge. Preferential booking at all other à la carte restaurants. Premium brand alcohol wherever you may go … and premium in–room amenities should make that the place you choose. Because with Royal Level rooms all on floors specially selected for the best views on the property, you may not want to leave, especially since WiFi is free and room service is provided from 7 AM – 10 PM … just in time to tuck into that freshly turned down bed.
Majestic Resorts
Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
“Your majesty” is how you’ll feel with this Club upgrade.
With a name like Majestic, you know even the standard is golden. However, the Colonial, Elegance, and Mirage Clubs at their respective properties take it up to platinum with their adults–only vibe and a medley of additional ways to be specially treated.
It starts with a personalized check–in and no–cost late check–out when available, plus a bottle of sparkling wine and surprise gift as soon as you step into your new digs. Within the room, there's a mini–bar with four bottles of liquor stocked for your enjoyment, and 24/7 room service (and a butler) for everything else. Access to Club–only à la carte restaurants widen your options for breakfast and lunch, and exclusive bars—including a pool bar—refresh all day. You can also choose to cool off on your own, with reserved pools and beach areas with Bali beds just for members.
Pillow and aromatherapy menus, a bathrobe and slippers, and a bath kit help put you to bed at the end of the day, but you can wake up to fresh espresso with your own Nespresso machine if staying in a premium suite.
Sheraton Hotels & Resorts
Worldwide
Step it up around the world. Sheraton Club is your fast track to that.
Another brand that's known for exceptional hospitality globally, every property in this family of brands also has its own personality. And so each Sheraton Club expresses itself just as individually.
A private lounge with sweeping views of cityscapes to ocean vistas hosts the crème de la crème, treating privileged guests like you with complimentary breakfast and all–day snacks and beverages. WiFi is free, too, from the ground floor to Club rooms—all of which are on a higher level to provide the most outstanding perspectives of the destination at your feet. On top of that, a Sheraton Club Manager provides a dedicated resource for Club members, taking on the role of wish–granter for whatever it is you might need to make your stay even more outstanding.
