The way Ritz is supposed to be !

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 15 Jul 2019via mobile
Stayed for two nights with family of 4 in two rooms at club level. We absolutely loved it, rooms are very nice and the property is stunning. We really enjoyed the club lounge, not only the interior design is perfect, the outside view is gorgeous. The staff at the club goes out of their way to make us feel comfortable.

If there is one negative note to make it is the swimming pool. It’s in an annex type building which feels very outdated and not at the Ritz level. Either you offer it at the right level or you don’t - would be my recommendation.

The Ritz at Half Moon Bay is a perfect weekend getaway hotel for many people who live in California or for people like us who enjoy staying at Marriott Bonvoy properties. I was really surprised to see so many dogs on the property! There is golfing a wonderful spa and access to walking trails along the coastline. Or if you prefer, just chilling on the terrace and enjoying the ocean view!
The room was beautiful and spacious with a lovely view overlooking the terrace below and of the coastline.
We played golf and enjoyed walking on the trails by the hotel. At dusk, we had cocktails on the terrace while enjoying the ocean view and watching the golfers on the hole next to the hotel.
Even went into town for a day of shopping.
The food at the hotel was delicious and we ate mostly in the Conservatory for dinner.

Room tip: Try to request a room with a view of the ocean. We were on the concierge level

The view from our room with an ocean view was gorgeous! The property is magical, with the morning fog, the bagpiper at dusk, and the sunset, I couldn't ask for a better weekend! We also loved renting bikes and riding around the property. The outdoor lounge area with fire pits was a great place to have cocktails with the ocean view.

The property was old, but well maintained. I like the interior design. The color of the wall paper matches the color of the Pacific Ocean. White marbled guest room bathroom was quite luxurious. The food from the Club Lounge was impressively delicious. Sandra and Cameron from the Concierge were attentive and caring. The bellboys at the front gate were very helpful. The resort has beautiful scenery. Try to get a room with coastal view if you can. It's worth it.

Absolutely beautiful property with phenomenal service. Room was spacious and had a beautiful view of the coastline. Enjoyed the walking trails around the property. Each night at sunset a bagpiper plays adding a unique feature. The staff was so accommodating and treated my girls with great birthday wishes upon arrival. We will certainly be back as this hotel certainly ranks in our top 5!! Thank you a wonderful time.
