- How does the Outty Ranking work?
- Every experience in Costa Maya gets a single 0 to 100 score built from traveler sentiment, the depth of review evidence, recent booking momentum, price fairness against comparable options in the same city, operator standing and cancellation flexibility. Scores are benchmarked within Costa Maya so a strong local option is not buried by global volume, and anything at 90 or above joins the Outty 90+ Club.
