Methodology

Return to main article

Rankings are based on reader evaluations collected in Travel + Leisure's 2005 World's Best Awards survey. Readers were given the option to rate resorts on how well they cater to families using a scale of 1 to 5, where "5" means excellent and "1" means poor. Scores are indexed averages of evaluations. They are rounded to the nearest hundredth of a point; in the event of an exact tie, resorts share the same ranking. For the full survey methodology, see www.travelandleisure.com/worldsbest.
