“Great stay”
Great stay, was there for my 20th anniversary! We had chocolates and a very nice card when we arrived. The food was excellent but expensive ! We were told that booking a trip on their catamaran was no problem but whenever got there we found out it was booked for the whiole weekend. I found a company on my own and and booked an offsite trip that was great! I lost my sunglasses in the bay one day and the whole activity staff was out in the ocean with snorkel gear trying to help me find them!! All the staff was very very nice! The pool and bay was awesome! Would go back for sure!
“Spectacular Honeymoon!”
We had the most wonderful time at the Ritz. From the moment we arrived, to the moment we left, the service at this resort was impecable. While we just relaxed and enjoyed the beach, pool, and resturants - there are many water activities avaliable to us as well. You would be remiss not to enjoy your holiday here.
“Very nice”
Rooms are very well appointed and clean. Maid service excellent. Usually a little wait to be seated at breakfast and to have the coffee refilled despite it being mostly buffet. Beach attendants very helpful.
“Best hotel on the island, hands down”
We loved the hotel and the service. A great place to honeymoon. We are planning to go back for our anniversary. Be aware... it's not cheap, but worth every penny.
“Very impressive service”
Impressive hotel and restaurants(though a little pricey).
“Expensive, but worth it as you get what you pay for.”
The hotel and its staff fully lived up to the Ritz-Carlton name. The room was beautifully appointed, comfortable, spacious, and we had a wonderful view from a large balcony. The grounds were well manicured, with a beautiful beach, pool, and beach bar. Bring "Tevas" as the hotel's location on a nature preserve means the ocean bottom isn't as sandy as other island beaches, but it's beautiful nonetheless. Service and food/drink quality lived up to all we'd hoped for, and the staff couldn't have been nicer nor more helpful. However, it's important to realize this is a Ritz and that you're going to pay for all that brings with it, which is a lot on both sides. With that in mind (and remember to add in the per night per room activity fee - $35 when we were there) move past it and prepare for a fantastic vacation experience that we felt was worth every penny.
“Simply terrific”
The hotel was everything we expected. First class service and breathtaking beach. Would go back in a heartbeat.
“Wonderful”
Exquisitely relaxing and very helpful staff.
“Excellent stay”
Overall a great stay in St Thomas at the Ritz-Carlton. Hotel was great and the inclusion of activities such as snorkeling/wind surfing/Hobie cats was a great option (the hotel charges a flat daily fee which includes unlimited use of the activities). The hotel is beautiful, the service was good to excellent and the food is fabulous. The hotel is quite family friendly too. There were many families with kids who seemed to have a great time. The restaurants have kids menus and the child's prices are far less than the adult.
“Beautiful Accomodations”
We loved the hotel and the extensive water sports available. Make sure that you get out on the Lady Lyndsy...it might be expensive, but it is well worth the experience. The staff was very friendly and eager to please.
