Paraiso de la Bonita was chosen out of 15 renowned Leading properties throughout Mexico as the best resort in Mexico to exemplify with the Leading brand stood for. The awards, which objectively measure the hotels from the traveler's perspective, are based solely on the results of stringent inspections by Leading Quality Assurance, a joint venture company of The Leading Hotels of the World, Ltd., providing full-service inspection services and assessment programs. With more than 1,500 criteria, these inspection reports are the most comprehensive in the luxury industry. Presented during the 2003 Annual Convention of The Leading Hotels of the World, the accolade was given to only 10 hotels in the world out of over 400 properties within the Leading brand.

The Commitment to Quality Awards recognize Leading Hotels and Leading Small Hotels in five regions: Africa/Middle East, Asia, Europe, Mexico/Caribbean, and North America. The winners are those properties which achieved the highest scores during their most recent Leading Hotels' impartial, anonymous inspections.
