World’s Best Awards Survey
This years’ winners are featured online and will be included in the August 2025 issue of Travel + Leisure. Winners of the annual World’s Best Awards are selected by readers of Travel + Leisure.
A survey was created to ask people to rate airlines, airports, cities, cruise ships, hotels, islands, and more. The final scores are averages of these ratings. A minimum number of responses is needed for a candidate to be included in the World’s Best Awards rankings. Each category is scored independently.

As we look to the future, we remain committed to growing our legacy while celebrating everything that makes Jamaica truly special.”
