How we score

Our weighted 10-point Holiday Score combines Google's overall rating, review volume, and sentiment around specific topics (service, food, atmosphere, accessibility). Sub-dimension scores weight category-specific signals — for restaurants we look at food and value mentions; for hotels at cleanliness and location; for beaches at water quality and facilities. Accessibility is weighted from verified wheelchair and mobility attributes.

Scores above 8.5 represent outstanding quality. 10.0 is reserved for editorial picks.

Why we like it
We appreciate outfits that get the basics right—reliable communication, guides who actually listen, fair pricing for families—and Ion & Stone earns consistent praise for exactly that. The explicit welcome to LGBTQ and transgender travelers matters in a region where it's not yet standard, and the practical details like free parking and card payments show real thought for the traveler's experience.
