Today I had the pleasure of meeting laz and his team mates. Laz welcomed us with the warmest welcome and the biggest smile. My boyfriend and I came for a relaxing day on the beach and we did just that with the help of laz and his teams. The hospitality was amazing and I will most definitely be back.

Great Beach service! I came down late and Jaden moved my chair in the exact direction for me to enjoy the sun. Great service, always love The Ritz 5 star property. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy a nice quiet but fabulous day on the beach.

From valet to check-in you can expect to be welcomed with an elevated experience. Lucio at the front desk is amiable with greeting you in high regards and is incredibly committed to your satisfaction. If you have questions or need something, simply ask! The rooms are spacious and the large windows adds a special charm to the breathtaking views that you can enjoy indoor or on the relaxing balcony. It’s very serene to watch the sun rise or set, to take a morning walk or to take a bike ride. The turn-down service is greatly appreciated and the common spaces are relaxing. Make sure to visit the Artisan Beach House restaurant and ask for Juan - you can count on an unbeatable atmosphere, delightful culinary experience and balanced attentiveness - a perfect mix.

Had the best experience with my girls. Carlos, our server, provided top tier service and went the extra mile when we needed things. Both Cedrick and Alessandr helped us on the beach, provided us with water and towels, and we all shared great laughs. And we also wanted to acknowledge Lazz for making sure everything was in tip top shape. Thank you… Read more
