How the Index is built
The methodology
Every venue is scored 0–100 on five pillars, weighted to a single total:
Total = .25 × Guest Experience + .25 × Group Readiness + .20 × Setting + .15 × Dining & Wellness + .15 × Value
0225%
Group Readiness
Meeting space, event operations, group dining capacity, and how gracefully the property absorbs 100+ guests at once.
0320%
Setting
The place: location, views, grounds, and the sense of arrival that makes a reward trip feel earned.
0415%
Dining & Wellness
Restaurants worth the flight, bar culture, spa and wellness programming that carries an itinerary.
0515%
Value
What the budget buys — rate integrity, group concessions, and cost against the experience delivered.
No venue pays to be ranked. Promoted placements, wherever they appear, are labeled.
Every venue is scored inside its destination context — see the Destination Index™.
