Recorded on location in Mexico, this episode of Big Blend Radio’s Travel with Terri features host Terri Guthrie in conversation with Jorge Macari, one of the owners of Impression Isla Mujeres by Secrets, an award-winning, ultra-luxury, adults-only resort.

Located on the southern tip of Isla Mujeres and surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, this AAA Five Diamond resort offers an elevated travel experience defined by personalized service, breathtaking design, and immersive island living.

Jorge shares insights into what sets Impression Isla Mujeres apart — from its Endless Privileges™ experience and dedicated butler service to its oceanfront suites, curated culinary journeys, and unforgettable experiences like sunset cruises and wellness offerings.

The conversation also highlights the resort’s commitment to sustainable tourism, including its partnership with the Saving Our Sharks Foundation and efforts to protect the marine environment while delivering world-class hospitality.

With only a small percentage of hotels earning the prestigious AAA Five Diamond designation, this episode explores what true luxury means today — where exceptional service, environmental responsibility, and authentic connection come together in one extraordinary destination.
