Very nice stay and everyone was super friendly. This is a great resort, especially for families.
Only negative was the pizza we ordered—truly awful pizza. Avoid that. LOL
Can highly recommend the Ritz/Amelia!
Excellent staff. Attentive to detail. Hotel is not a Ritz Carlton. Missing all out service and a facilities you pay for. Lobby bar closed until 3pm, gourmet restaurant closed Sunday and monday. No service outside areas. Not a Ritz when you have to buy a bottle of wine and plastic cups to enjoy overlooking the ocean.
We arrived to complimentary champagne upon check in. We let them know we were celebrating our 40 Year Wedding Anniversary and they took it upon themselves to pamper us throughout our stay. We received complementary meals, desserts and a bottle of champagne. It seemed as though the entire staff knew we were celebrating and took an active part in making every facet of our trip memorable. The resort is clean, and the staff is courteous and responsive. There so many things that are included that you can leave your worries at home. If you're looking for a luxury resort, The Ritz won't disappoint.
Great Ritz property. Easily and immediately one of our new favorites. Great staff. Club level room was a bit small and underpowered, but everything else was really nice. Great beach, golf, island feel, Fernanidna town was super cool too. Highly recommend.
I think of a Ritz Carlton as an over the top experience but I feel the Amelia Island Ritz is underwhelming. With all resort fees, parking cost etc., the nightly room charge was $1400. That is no food or activity charges. We were disappointed their “Salt” restaurant is closed on Sunday and Monday so did not get to eat there. Other eating options are fine but not special by any means.
