Ritz-Carlton, Naples Review

This is a classic Ritz-Carlton, with marble statues, antique furnishings, and 19th-century European oil paintings. In the rooms, the comforts of home prevail—assuming your home is a palace. Outside, a short walk away, the beach is soft, white, and dense with seashells. Given the graciousness of the staff, you quickly get over the incongruity of traipsing through the regal lobby in flip-flops, clutching a plastic bag of beach finds. The elegant spa is one of the Ritz-Carlton brand's first and largest, offering a complete (and divine) menu of indulgences. New resort developments include the Nature's Wonder center with aquariums and colorful environmental exhibits, an uber-cool electronics gaming room, a sushi bar, and a lobby lounge tapas menu.

    We had a terrible time here. We were given double beds when we ordered a king. The $25 daily valet parking is ridiculous as are the long waits for the car. Also, there are no coffee makers in the rooms. We were told we could rent one for $25. $25? The rooms were small and the management was non-responsive. Pass this hotel by. It's not the Ritz Carlton of other locales.
