The Expedia Insiders' Select list was developed using a weighted mathematical formula that factored Expedia.com's hundreds of thousands of Traveler Opinions, hotel reviews created by Expedia travelers who have recently completed a hotel stay. Expedia also compared hotel properties to others within the same star-rating and geographical location to identify hotels that deliver not only an exemplary overall experience but also a notable value for the money. The company also incorporated local expertise and insight from hundreds of Expedia employees throughout the world. Lighthouse Key Resort and Spa has managed to garner substantial attention from the millions of consumers who visit Expedia.com every month to shop for and book travel accommodations. The resort's excellent service and state-of-the-art amenities have earned them a competitive advantage amongst the world's top hotels.
