“How grand is the Ritz Carlton!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 21, 2013 via mobile

My family have stayed here 1-3 times a year over the last 6 years.located 20 minutes from the Orlando Action.
I don't golf anymore but did use the course 2 years ago and found it to be excellent and affordable as well. Deals are available if you stay at the hotel either JW or Ritz which are connected hotels but operate separately.

The hotel rooms were remodeled about 2 years ago from floors tiles curtains and other nice things in the rooms.
If you like your own coffee in the morning the coffee station is perfect which has everything you need located in your room.
The beds are my 2nd favorite mattress next to Heavenly mattresses which are my all time favorite.(Heavenly found at Westins).

Food in any of the restaurants or club room is excellent. The Chefs are first class here and you can see and taste the dedication.Service goes without saying... From the valet, front desk,wait staff,concierge and house keeping.These people are professional and excellent that's all I can say.
The workout facility with classes and spa has some of the best resources I have ever seen in hotels.

Why Stay? If your looking for that class of food,service and room and cost is not the main factor then the Ritz is for you.

Why Not ? This hotel is as you would say in the top tier of hotels.I don't stay here for business because of cost.But when I want to get away several times a year I spend the extra money to enjoy the excellence.

For any of you non-tippers out there you will not enjoy yourselves here.
Tipping is part of what you expect when staying at these Higher end hotels and it's how the staff makes a percentage of their needed income.

“What a place to stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 20, 2013

Stayed there for 4 nights in Dec 12. It's a huge hotel with all modern amenities. There was a car show going on in the hotel complex at that time, a lifetime experience to see the best cars of the world showcasing their beauty and power. The stuffs at the hotel are freindly and very helpful. Good food option, including Indian food in one of the hotel restaurent. I tried the gym and the swiming pool, both are best in class. The holet is surrounded by a beautiful lake.

“Holiday wonderland”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 19, 2013

We reserved the ritz for three nights and ended up staying 8 over the holidays. We arrived on Christmas Eve and were immediately in awe of the gorgeous lobby decorated elegantly for the holiday season. The flowers near check in looked like candy canes. There was also a life sized gingerbread house in the lobby as well as a few grand Christmas trees and lights around the lobby. The rooms were very comfortable and decorated smartly. The grounds on the property were shared with the adjacent JW Marriott which shared restaurants to dine at. The spa was lovely and golf course was top notch with a nice restaurant and bar. The pool was never overcrowded and beautiful as well. Room Service breakfast was delicious in the morning and servers friendly and professional. All hotel staff that we came in contact with we're wonderful. I can go on and on about this resort. For kids they had around the clock activities kids camps & parties going on. The highlights fir the kids and big kids like myself were was the visit from Santa on christmas eve to our room and the gingerbread house making class for the whole family. The grand finale was on New Years Eve the resort had its very own spectacular firework show which we watched from our balcony. This Ritz property Will not disappoint even the most discerning of tastes. I wish we never left!

“Wonderful Hotel perfect for pampering and relaxation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 17, 2013

We stayed here 1/12-1/15/2013. Incredible hotel, immaculately furnished, the room was cozy but bigger than average, beautiful bathroom and balcony view of downtown. We stayed on the club level and had access to the lounge for breakfasts, snacks and drinks. The staff was always cheery and attentive from entering or leaving to bringing towels at the pool. We also had massges at the Spa, which is a three floor paradise. They were great! And even a birthday surprise for one of us there to celebrate that, too. would definitely go back.

Room Tip: all rooms have balconies and i believe theyre all furnished similarly.

“Love the Place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 14, 2013

Our stay at the Ritz was outstanding. We had a nice room overlooking the pool and golf course. The room was
well appointed. The bathroom had double sinks and was decorated in marble. The staff was very professional and friendly. I had a hot stone massage at the spa. It was incredible. Natalie was my massage therapist and she was excellent. The spa was so relaxing and beautiful. Could have spent the whole day there. The rooms have balconies so you can sit and enjoy the experience. We love this hotel and would definitely come back. My only complaint is that they charge for wi-fi.
