OUR MAIN CHALLENGE WAS TO HAVE TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION AND BE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY .

These practices had allowed the company to earn , apart from the respect and recognition of tourists , several national and global awards .
One of them was the honor of belonging to the Best Mexican Companies group and winning the 2018 Applause Award for the best park in the world .
Experience requires connectivity
Grupo Xcaret is a business group that , since 1984 , has been recognized as one of the main tourist centers in Mexico . The parks , hotels and rides stand out concerning tourist and technological aspects , carrying a concern for environmental conservation and minimizing the environmental impact of the facilities and infrastructure .
In 2016 , the Xcaret Group began developing a hotel complex that allowed it to offer a unique experience to its visitors ( All-Fun Inclusive ), characterized by its innovation , sustainability , hyperconnectivity and architecture based on Mexican culture .

Xcaret means ‘ small bay ’ in the Mayan language . But in the 21st century , this word evokes fun , entertainment , adventure , history and conservation , all under the most demanding , advanced quality and environmental preservation standards in Riviera Maya .

The goal of Grupo Xcaret is to make the world happier by spreading its love for Mexico and its unique vision of sustainable tourism recreation . Since its foundation , the group has implemented practices to promote tourism that they proudly call ‘ sustainable ’, which caused a positive impact on the social environment and the world through promoting gender equity , inclusion and diversity .
It required the hotels in the complex ( Hotel Xcaret México , Hotel Xcaret Arte and Hotel Casa de la Playa ), the parks and other areas to have a robust and reliable network infrastructure .
For this , some of Panduit ’ s best solutions were chosen : Category 6 A cabling networks , connectivity and enterprise solutions ( including routing systems ), power and grounding , cabinets , thermal management racks and enclosures , physical infrastructure management , power distribution and environmental monitoring solutions .
Verónica Martínez , Corporate Technology Director , Grupo Xcaret , said : “ Our main challenge was to have technological innovation and be environmentally friendly . It was possible thanks to a camouflaged , secure , robust , scalable and transformative technology ”.
