Hotel Secreto, Mexico
The owners’ Greek honeymoon inspired the white-washed décor of this minimal-chic 10-suite retreat that’s among the top Isla Mujeres hotels, which feels a world apart from lively Playa Norte (but is only a quick golf cart ride away). The pairing of sleek and stylish surroundings with an unpretentious barefoot-casual vibe is one I can endorse.
