The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island Review

Guests know what to expect from the Ritz—elegance, superb comfort, excellent service—and the Amelia Island location is no exception. All accommodations in the eight-story building have balconies and ocean views; suites and rooms are spacious and luxurious, with beds so comfortable, you'll need a drag-out call instead of a wake-up one. Public areas are exquisitely maintained, and there are plenty of good restaurants, including the upscale Salt. Room service is available 24/7, and the Club Level provides a personal concierge. At this writing, the hotel is planning to do exterior maintenance in certain areas; work is expected to be ongoing for a while but shouldn't disrupt your stay.

    Hotel Amenities

  • 444 rooms, 44 suites.
  • Restaurants, bars, golf course, pools, tennis courts, gym, spa, beach, children's programs.
  • Rooms have: safe, Wi-Fi.

    this property is more like a hyatt. doesn't quite deliver like the ritz should. we waited over an hour for our, but was upgraded to an ocean front. room nothing special. nice size, flat screen, coffee maker. we went off season so got a good rate. would not pay over $300 for this property. not that impressed with the island.

    Our family went to this Ritz last August (off-season). Got a great deal (under $250) for a great coastal view room. Service was excellent: bathroom had some water problems and we were automatically upgraded to oceanfront(next level up). Food impeccable. Left our kids at the Ritz Kids CLub one night and the kids had a ball. The location is isolated, providing tranquility, but is only a 20-30 minute drive from airport. I understand they just completed their renovation. Will definitely return soon

    I hope I don't annoy people by starting a trip report before the trip is finished.

    This trip has hardly started. We are on an airplane from BWI to TPA at this very moment. I paid AirTran $4.95 for access Read more
