AAA has added five North American hotels and one restaurant to its coveted and fast-growing Four Diamonds list.
The properties, recognized by AAA inspectors for their four Cs—cleanliness, comfort, cuisine and consistency—offer upscale amenities, remarkable service and outstanding dining options.
The additions announced Monday include a pair of spectacular hotels in Vancouver, British Columbia, a beloved retreat in Fort Myers, Florida, two upscale Mexican hotels and an innovative Mexican restaurant in San Antonio, Texas.
Meanwhile, AAA revealed that two AAA Five Diamond hotels retained their prestigious designation by continuing a tradition of excellence.
The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain in Marana, Arizona has achieved AAA Five Diamond status since 2015 while Virginia's five-star Salamander Middleburg has held the distinguished designation since 2022.

The magic of hospitality is staying in a place that isn’t anything like home. A castle, a treehouse, a farm, a yurt: all such places promise an escape from the every day, especially when combined with luxury flourishes that boggle the mind.
