"While searching for hotels for the original edition of this guidebook, we were amazed at how many of the gems that we felt so clever to have discovered had already been found by Different World, a company in England that represents a select group of inns in Mexico.
"Without exception, when we chatted to the owners of the hotels, they poured out accolades of praise for this company, its professionalism, fine service, high standards of excellence, and integrity in terms of their selections.
"On the same trail as their researcher, our paths often almost crossed, but we never had the pleasure of meeting in person. However, we soon became friends by phone as we shared some of our mutual finds.
"We are exceptionally pleased to indicate in the "hotel descriptions" section (of the guide) those properties that are affiliated with Different World.
"Their website is the finest hotel-booking service we have ever seen for its wealth of information and ease of operation."
