Discover Four Sides of Paradise with The Ritz-Carlton
Some travelers seek adventure. Others seek stillness. Some long for culture, while others dream of days measured only by tides and sunsets.
Across the Caribbean and Costa Rica, four Ritz-Carlton properties reveal remarkably different expressions of escape. Whether overlooking the turquoise waters of St. Thomas, tucked beneath the palms of Puerto Rico, resting along the shores of Grand Cayman, or suspended between rainforest and sea in Costa Rica, each property reflects the character of its destination while delivering impeccable hospitality for which The Ritz-Carlton is known.
While every resort tells its own story, they all share a common philosophy: accommodations designed to feel less like hotel rooms and more like private residences; dining that showcases local flavors prepared by world-class culinary talent; and opportunities to engage with the cultures that make each destination unique. The Ritz-Carlton resorts offer polished beachfront sophistication, while the ultra-exclusive Ritz-Carlton Reserve collection embraces a more intimate approach with its purposefully remote estates. Together, they present four distinct ways to escape, each memorable in its own right, yet united by an unwavering commitment to personalized service, flawless craftsmanship, and destination-driven experiences.
The Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas
Location: U.S. Virgin Islands
Experience We Love: What truly sets The Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas apart is Lady Lynsey II, the resort's private catamaran. Available for snorkeling excursions, sunset cruises, and island adventures, it transforms a traditional beach vacation into something extraordinary.
Set along the shores of Great Bay, The Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas blends polished resort comforts with the easygoing spirit of the Caribbean. Following a thoughtful reimagining, the resort presents a fresh expression of island living while preserving the warmth and familiarity that have drawn generations of travelers to its shores. Guest rooms and suites embrace the beauty of their surroundings with balconies overlooking tropical gardens, resort grounds, or the sparkling sea, while Club Level accommodations add an extra layer of personalized attention.
Beyond the shoreline, the U.S. Virgin Islands become a playground of turquoise waters and hidden coves. Snorkeling, kayaking, sailing, and day trips to neighboring St. John invite exploration at every turn. Dining draws inspiration from both land and sea, from handmade pastas and coastal Italian flavors at Alloro to fresh seafood, tropical cocktails, and ocean views that linger long after the meal ends.

Dorado Beach, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve
Location: Puerto Rico
Experience We Love: Dorado Beach's greatest distinction is its unwavering sense of place. Few resorts in the Caribbean have remained so faithful to the vision that inspired them, creating a retreat where nature remains the true luxury.
Hidden along Puerto Rico's northern coastline, Dorado Beach feels less like a resort and more like a secluded estate woven into the landscape itself. Built upon the legacy of Laurance Rockefeller, the property was designed with a simple philosophy: preserve the land, protect the views, and allow nature to remain the centerpiece. Today, that vision remains beautifully intact, with buildings rising no higher than the surrounding palm trees and accommodations that blur the line between indoors and outdoors.
Many guestrooms feature plunge pools, outdoor showers, and expansive terraces that embrace the Caribbean climate. Dining celebrates both Puerto Rico's culinary heritage and global influences, while experiences extend far beyond the beach. Guests can explore Old San Juan, bike along the Rockefeller Nature Trail, discover hidden caves, enjoy championship golf, or unwind at Spa Botánico, a tranquil wellness sanctuary inspired by native healing traditions.

The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman
Location: Cayman Islands
Experience We Love: Blue by Eric Ripert remains one of the Caribbean's most celebrated dining experiences. As the region's only Forbes Five-Star restaurant, it has become its own destination.
Spread across 144 acres along the powder-soft sands of Seven Mile Beach, The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman has earned a reputation as one of the Caribbean's most beloved resorts. Few destinations balance so many travel styles with such ease. Families return year after year, couples gather for milestone celebrations, and culinary travelers arrive seeking one of the region's most respected dining scenes. Recently refreshed interiors blend contemporary coastal style with British Caribbean influences, creating an atmosphere that feels polished yet welcoming.
The resort's culinary program consistently ranks among the Caribbean's finest, spanning oceanfront seafood, handcrafted sushi, premium steaks, and an exceptional collection of Caribbean rums. Beyond the dining table, experiences appeal to every generation. Children can explore Jean-Michel Cousteau's Ambassadors of the Environment program, while adults enjoy championship golf, a Forbes Five-Star spa, water sports, and curated island adventures.

Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve
Location: Costa Rica
Experience We Love: Beyond the ocean-facing rooms and suites, the treetop tent suites embody everything that makes Nekajui extraordinary. Elevated above the forest floor yet finished with impeccable sophistication, they offer a rare opportunity to feel immersed in nature without sacrificing comfort.
Perched high above Peninsula Papagayo, Nekajui introduces a distinctive new perspective on Costa Rica's luxury landscape. As the first Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Central and South America, the resort embraces a more intimate approach to hospitality—one deeply rooted in nature, culture, and connection. Named after the Chorotega word for "lush garden," Nekajui is seamlessly immersed within a 1,400-acre private paradise, where a dramatic hanging bridge connects guests to clifftop viewpoints, dining venues, and wellness spaces.
Accommodations range from ocean-facing suites to treetop tents nestled within the forest canopy, each supported by dedicated Manzu hosts who tailor every stay. Dining draws heavily from Costa Rica's natural abundance, with venues set among rainforest clearings, dramatic clifftops, and coastal overlooks. Adventure arrives in countless forms, from wildlife encounters, surfing, and sailing to hiking, golf, and wellness rituals inspired by the surrounding landscape. Throughout the experience, nature is never simply a backdrop. It is the destination itself.
