Newly opened Cocoon Maldives has been awarded the Certificate of Excellence 2017 by TripAdvisor.
In a statement issued to celebrate the achievement, the resort expressed its appreciation for all the guests that have stayed at the resort since its opening. This remarkable acknowledgement has taken the resort to a whole new level, it added.
“Our aim is to not only offer guests with the best service imaginable, but to create unique experiences beyond what would usually be expected of a resort vacation,” the statement read.
Now in its seventh year, the Certificate of Excellence designation recognises establishments that consistently earn great reviews on TripAdvisor from travellers.
It accounts for the quality, quantity and recency of reviews submitted by travellers on TripAdvisor over a 12-month period. To qualify, a business must maintain an overall TripAdvisor bubble rating of at least four out of five, have a minimum number of reviews and must have been listed on TripAdvisor for at least 12 months.
“This recognition helps travellers identify and book properties that regularly deliver great service. TripAdvisor is proud to play this integral role in helping travellers feel more confident in their booking decisions,” TripAdvisor’s Vice President of Industry Marketing Heather Leisman was quoted in a statement issued by the platform.
