Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice and had a balcony where I could watch the super yachts go by. Although there was a strange smell in the room, the staff tried to fix it unsuccessfully. The service was super nice and they even recommended a great restaurant nearby. The location on the marina was a mixed bag - great views but a bit dirty. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with delays in service but a beautiful outdoor dining area. The facilities like the gym and spa were fantastic.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a comfortable bed, though there was a persistent strange smell that couldn't be resolved due to full occupancy. The service was helpful and friendly, especially when assisting with misplaced belongings. The location is vibrant, with proximity to popular beaches, and the dining experience aimed to compensate for any shortcomings.
The hotel rooms lacked the wow factor compared to other Ritz Carlton properties where I have stayed, but they were clean and attractively decorated. The service was outstanding, with enthusiastic and friendly staff offering the best service of all the staff I encountered. The location was cozy and relaxed, right at the marina and near Venice Beach. The dining experience was memorable with complimentary breakfast in a beautiful outdoor dining area by the marina. The facilities were well-maintained and convenient.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with comfortable rooms and a friendly staff. The location was great, and I enjoyed the well-maintained pool area. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with limited breakfast options and slow service.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with excellent attention to detail in housekeeping and cleanliness. Although the view was of the freeway and not the marina, the room was still very nice.
