Recent Ritz Carlton Review: "Great hotel and extremely friendly staff. The hotel has a very nice pool, and a private area at the beach. The hotel is located in walking distance to restaurants, nightclubs and various shops. The area is a bit "touristy", but still very nice. Try to get a room as far from the Beach Place-area as possible, as they have very loud fans on top of their  buildings that makes it annoying to use the balcony if you live too close. The valet-parking is expensive, but very professional. The training-facilities are excellent and highly recommended. During our stay we tried the hotel restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner - each time with great satisfaction. Our only complaints was that we once found our door open and unattended after the housekeeping, and that we found adult material under our bed from the previous guests. We will definitely return to this hotel at a later time."
